Storm Mountain Lodge & Cabins

If you haven't stayed at Storm Mountain Lodge, you're missing A LOT! The best log cabin in the mountains with amazing service. They offer a variety of cabins that fit up to 4 people (pet friendly and no pet options available).Their restaurant offers delicious food at reasonable prices (you can get take out and have dinner at your cabin!). Cannot wait to book our next stay.

Went on anniversary trip with my wife. Had a fantastic time. The staff were able to work with us when our flight was cancelled pushing our entire schedule back one day. Everyone has been very friendly and welcoming— great hospitality. Location is perfect as it’s ~20 minutes to downtown Banff and ~20 minutes to Lake Louise. Beautiful hikes less than 5 minutes away. Cabins do feel like they are within the forest and away from the busy roads/city. Would stay here again.

I’ve always had an amazing time at Storm Mountain. Such a quaint experience - a great escape the ordinary. The staff are kind and friendly and the food is outstanding. Very close to an easy hike, half an hour from Lake Louise and 22 minutes from Banff. Lots to do and see. Will return for sure.

Great rustic style log cabin with enough amenities to be totally comfortable. Regarding critical reviews: the cabins vary; ours (#9) had a gas fireplace/heater which was nice, a very comfy bed, small bathroom, but no issues. Staff were very friendly, esp. Aisling. Dinner was exceptional. Sablefish was delicate and delicious, duck with cherry/wine sauce was a more winter fare and also delicious. Reasonable prices, given remoteness. Great hiking a short distance away. Short hike to beautiful Vista Lake, a longer, more gradual hike to Boom Lake, or longer, steeper hike to Arnica Lake/meadow and further to Twin Lakes. Spectacular mountain views. Pick your level of effort.

We had a lovely three night stay at this fabulous characterful place. it was like stepping back in time in a really nice and authentic way. The staff were superb and helpful at all times. The restaurant is small but perfect and the food is absolutely delicious. A real aurprise with a brilliant chef and team and all served in style by the wonderful Jamie. We can't recommend Storm Mountain Lodge and Cabins highly enough.

The cabin was cozy, clean, and the beds were comfortable. The food was delicious! The employees were always very welcoming, kind, knowledgeable. The location was very close to national parks. It was great that it is only 15 min away from the Lake Louise shuttle parking lot. I look forward to a future stay.

Storm Mountain Lodge is a well-preserved time capsule that provides an insight into how visitors to the Rockies would have been accommodated over a century ago while pampering modern-day visitors with fine dining in the Lodge & providing snug cabins with en suite bathrooms. Yes, the road adjacent to the cabins is a little busier now than in the 1920’s but we did not find the traffic noise intrusive, especially not during the night. Each cabin is detached & has its own parking spot & porch with two chairs & a table. Each cabin has a wood burning fireplace with logs, kindling & firestarters provided. There are also ample Adirondack chairs on the property, surrounding the fire pit or facing Storm Mountain, where we enjoyed our complimentary coffee & pastry each morning. We ate at the Lodge three nights in a row & the food is excellent. My wife & I felt like the two characters in the ‘Trip’ movies as we sampled everything on the small but inventive menu. The staff are all friendly & approachable & the bar is well-stocked with local beers, wines & cocktails (Buffalo’s Breath being our recommendation if you like Old Fashioned’s.)

We loved our stay in historic cabin #7 and would definitely return. All of the staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Our cabin was as pictured - rustic, simple and cozy. As noted in other reviews, some are set closer to the highway. If that's a deal breaker, ask about location before booking. The Lodge itself is charming and relaxing. We found Storm Mountain Lodge an ideal base camp for our stay. ||The restaurant is lovely. We enjoyed our first meal there so much, we came back the next night. Do book in advance. We got lucky. ||Check out Vista Lake trail right up the road from Storm Mountain. Short hike with big payoff.
