Banff Log Cabin Guesthouse

Had a wonderful 3 night stay in July, really enjoyed the location and it was a quiet and relaxing neighborhood area. It was walking distance to the Bow falls trail which was a relaxing evening walk. The hosts had exceptional attention to detail, anything you could need & more! was available. We especially loved the breakfasts, the muffins and fresh coffee were especially so delicious. We also loved the fresh fruit and had leftovers for daytime snacks. Sarah was an excellent and friendly host, we enjoyed chatting with her. The lodging was so clean and comfortable- we were sad to leave. Would highly recommend to anyone. We were family members and shared the bed/space comfortably. It was one of my favorite places I stayed in the Canadian Rockies region and I’d love to return!

Banff Log Cabin was perfect for our 3-day stay in Banff. Great location - close enough to walk to downtown, but far enough away to be private and quiet. Easy access to the hiking we wanted to do and a bonus to have access to bikes. Breakfast with fruit, yogurt and fresh baked muffins was a treat! Other personal touches made our stay special. Malcolm was a great host. We would definitely stay here again.

In my opinion, this is the best place to stay for a couple visiting Banff! Amazing location that is quiet, but still only a few minute walk to the main part of town. Amazing hosts and breakfast, and the cabin also has everything you need. We would definitely stay again if we came back to Banff. 10/10 recommend!

Staying her with my girlfriend was great. Place was a beautiful 30 minute walk from downtown . Used this as a great spot to drive to Lake Louise for ski day trips. Daily fresh muffins, night time service and a lovely couple hosting. I’d reccomend to any couple for the weekend to explore Banff and the area. Was magical.

I’m speechless! Me and my partner stayed for a weekend to treat ourselves to something more intimate and different to youth hostels, and we were blown away! Sharon and Malcolm were extremely welcoming and made our stay in Banff simply incredible. We will definitely be coming back if we ever get the chance. Thank you so much for the experience!

Magical Christmas Stay – Highly Recommended! We had an absolutely wonderful stay at the Log Cabin. The cozy and charming atmosphere, paired with the magical winter vibes, made our Christmas in Banff truly unforgettable. The cabin’s warmth and cleanliness immediately set the perfect mood for a relaxing holiday retreat. The location is fantastic—just a short walk to the serene Bow River trail and about 10 minutes to Downtown Banff, which made exploring so easy and enjoyable. Malcom and Sharon were exceptional hosts and made our stay even more special. From the moment we arrived, the cabin was beautifully prepped, and they had thoughtfully provided a list of recommended restaurants. We tried several of their suggestions, including the sushi house and Melissa's MisSteak, which quickly became our favorites! One of the standout experiences was the amazing breakfasts Sharon prepared each morning. We are both food lovers, and every dish was a treat! The waffles and muffins were especially delicious, and we couldn’t stop raving about the lemon poppy seed muffins—they were hands down our favorite. The little extra treats served during our stay were such a thoughtful bonus. What really made this place exceptional was the hosts’ genuine care and attention to detail. Malcom and Sharon went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable experience. They were so friendly and accommodating, even helping us set up the outdoor fireplace, which created such a cozy and magical atmosphere for one of our evenings. If you’re looking for a cozy, welcoming, and truly unforgettable getaway in Banff, I can’t recommend this cabin enough. Thank you, Malcom and Sharon, for making our Christmas so incredibly special. We’ll cherish these memories forever! ❤️

We enjoyed our stay at Banff Log Cabin Guesthouse. Emma was a superb hostess, very helpful with where to put our bikes (although they also have bikes to use!). The bed was comfortable and we especially enjoyed the delicious breakfasts each morning. We had difficulty choosing which kinds of muffins to order. Great location in quiet neighborhood very close to trails, walks and town. Even the neighbors we spoke to had great recommendations. A highlight of our trip.

What a privilege to stay at such a lovely spot. Malcolm was the perfect host. The cabin was clean and cozy. Breakfast was delicious. Malcolm gave us useful tips about where to go. The location is perfect, just a 5 minute walk from the centre of Banff, but in a lovely quiet neighborhood. The loan bikes were a real bonus which made it simple to get all around Banff without jumping in the car. Banff is lovely to cycle around with plenty of cycle lanes and a 30kmph speed limit throughout the town. If you are lucky enough to be staying in Banff I can thoroughly recommend the Maclab Bistro in the Banff Arts Centre. It is a 10 minute walk from the town centre, but well worth it for the view and less busy atmosphere.
