Leah and The Legion were way cool and very welcoming ### 3/5 - Okay Anne It's not one place that we will stop at again. It is a little pricey for what you get. ### 4/5 - Good Verified traveller Blue River is a small community up in the mountains so it doesn't have the shopping and restaurants like bigger centres but it is a beautiful location. ### 4/5 - Good Corey blue river is very nice and we stopped on the way back for a couple of days. Just did not stay at Glacier mountain. ### 3/5 - Okay Verified traveller Not axbad place, just a very small town! ## Cities near Blue River ![Clearwater](https://mediaim.expedia.com/destination/1/75619288d0fb1a64dcc498c1d7904c2c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=512&h=288&q=medium) ### Clearwater [](https://expedia.ca/Clearwater.dx6139224) ![Valemount](https://mediaim.expedia.com/destination/1/3636ee27bd9c5e142fc2c1e284ec281c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=512&h=288&q=medium) ### Valemount [](https://expedia.ca/Valemount.dx6139230) - Cities near Blue River - Places of interest [Clearwater](https://expedia.ca/Clearwater.dx6139224)[Valemount](https://expedia.ca/Valemount.dx6139230)[Avola](https://expedia.ca/Avola.dx6310086)[Thunder River](https://expedia.ca/Thunder-River.dx553248635922159896) - [Eleanor Lake](https://expedia.ca/Eleanor-Lake-Blue-River.d6192058.Vacation-Attraction) - [Blue River Black Spruce Provincial Park](https://expedia.ca/Blue-River-Black-Spruce-Provincial-Park-Blue-River.d6309856.Vacation-Attraction) - [Blue River Pine Provincial Park](https://expedia.ca/Blue-River-Pine-Provincial-Park-Blue-River.d6309853.Vacation-Attraction) - [River Safari](https://expedia.ca/River-Safari-Blue-River.d6305308.Vacation-Attraction) - [Wells Gray Provincial Park](https://expedia.ca/Wells-Gray-Provincial-Park-British-Columbia.d6139220.Vacation-Attraction) - [Finn Creek Provincial Park](https://expedia.ca/Finn-Creek-Provincial-Park-Avola.d6309863.Vacation-Attraction) - [Mud Lake Delta Provincial Park](https://expedia.ca/Mud-Lake-Delta-Provincial-Park-British-Columbia.d6309859.Vacation-Attraction) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/mad-service/footer/bnaBanners/BEX_Footer.jpg) ## Go further with the Expedia app Save on select hotels and earn double points when you book on the app. Our app deals help you to save on trips so you can travel more and manage it all on the go.
