Mountain Views and More…

The true meaning of “Big Nature” is immediately evident from the views of the awesome mountains surrounding Mountaineer Lodge. In fact, views of mountain nature are a standard feature of our rooms and suites!  Our buildings  are nestled in a pine forest with tremendous views of Mount Temple and its summit glacier.

The Lodge has the feel of mountain seclusion yet is easily accessed from the Trans Canada Highway and is a scenic 5 minute walk from a variety of services and shopping in the village of Lake Louise. The mountain and glacier ringed lake that is the world-famous “Lake Louise” is only a short distance up the hill from the lodge.

“I have been coming back here every year for 12 years, my home-away-from-home in the mountains I love. I get the same room with a superb view of Mount Temple everytime I come. The staff welcome me back and make me feel at home.”                P. Hastings – Houston, Texas

The Mountaineer Lodge consists of two buildings with a total of 78 rooms in various combinations and layouts to comfortably accommodate couples, families or vacation groups. The rooms offer a charming environment in which to relax after a day of hiking, sightseeing, wildlife viewing or traveling. The lodge boasts a whirlpool and steam room and several rooms are configurable as suites with separate sitting/lounge areas. All the rooms in the Main Lodge have a microwave and mini-fridge.

With Lake Louise being centrally located deep in the Canadian Rockies, Mountaineer Lodge is a perfect base from which to take day trips into the mountains. From the lodge you can visit Banff, drive to the Columbia Ice Fields and Jasper National Park or access Kootenay National Park to the south and Yoho National Park to the west.
