Buffalo Mountain Lodge offers an exceptional location tucked away on Tunnel Mountain with incredible alpine views. Having outstanding dining right on the property makes it effortless to refuel with a cozy meal after a full day on the trails.
We received an upgrade to a room with kitchenette which was a nice touch as was the free pass for the bus into downtown. Room facilities were excellent, thoroughly enjoyed the real log fire each evening 😀. Nice main lodge, ideal for making use of the daily happy hour drinks 😂
Loved the wood burning fireplace and the staff was extremely accommodating. The room was comfortable and well appointed. Parking was challenging if you got back late and the price was a little more than we would have expected to pay but to be fair we booked last minute.
