A Haven in the Mountains
Bear Paw Lodge provides everything you can dream of for your family holiday! But the extra little things that are there that you don’t expect like boxes full of indoor and outdoor games and bicycles of all sizes as well as most household soaps and spices speaks of a very thoughtful and gracious host. It is a real pity we only booked one week!

great place for a family reunion
We had a wonderful stay at Bear Paw Lodge. The house was super comfortable for our party of 10 (6 adults, 4 kids ages 2-7). We saw wildlife every day (even a bear!), loved the hot tub, were amazed by the mountain views, and enjoyed exploring the area. Great base! Bring your bug spray for the evenings!

Second stay was as good as the first!
After a 2 year pause thanks to Covid, we decided to do a repeat stay at Bear Paw Lodge. Super comfortable stay for 10 adults. Great location with easy access to a lot of activities in and around Golden. The large property was well kept, and set up for whatever outdoor activities we wanted to do. We spent a lot of time on the nice sized deck in the hot summer sun during the day and cool evenings in the beautiful silence of the Rockies. The on site managers were very respectful, polite and accommodating. Another great week at Bear Paw Lodge!

Perfect Place
We absolutely loved Bear Paw Lodge! It’s secluded and quiet and was the perfect base camp for all of our family adventures. The house had everything we needed and the kids loved playing badminton and soaking in the hot tub. Jim was so helpful with suggestions on things to do. Next time we come to BC we know where we’ll be staying!

Beautiful Mountain Retreat
My family of 4 stayed here for a week and had a great time. I was geared up to give this place a 4 star review on account of the description not being completely transparent about the house/grounds keeper living in a basement suite attached to the house. Upon finding that out (it is in the description but it's not 100% clear you're sharing a house) I was fairly disappointed, however the people in the basement suite keep out of the way so it wasn't an issue at all. However, if you're looking for a 'whole home to yourself' type rental this isn't technically it. Now, why I upped my review back to a 5 is because this house is beautiful. The grounds are massive, the house is fully stocked for everything you could want to do (games, sports equipment, bikes, everything!) and the surrounding area is awesome. Tons of hikes (all VERY well documented in a binder at the house) nearby. Nature is at your door step, literally. There was a family of deer living in the yard that we watched every morning. Overall this place is awesome, the ONLY thing that was an issue was the WiFi router. The internet connection is fine but they need to replace their router, I let the owner know and he's going to get it replaced. We stayed in summer but this place would be great to hole up in during the winter and its only about 30mins from Kicking Horse! Stay here, it's great.
