"Three Bears is the new kid in town, and its rooftop patio status comes with a twist. The windowed roof of the second floor is retractable and can be opened or closed according to the weather.

"This is the new patio on the block and you don’t want to miss it. Complete with personal fires and a ‘winter warmer’ cocktail menu, this is a great spot to have your après back in town. Located on Bear Street, dogs welcome!"

"If you want to be in the heart of the action of Banff proper Buffalo Mountain Lodge is a great choice for a hotel in Banff.

"Slightly off the beaten path, the restaurant at the Buffalo Mountain Lodge is a nice escape from downtown. The food is traditional Albertan fair with an upscale twist. Think local bison with pickled melon."

"Just a little way down the road from Barrier Lake in Kananaskis Country, you can find O’Shaughnessy Falls. Only a short walk from the parking lot you’ll be able to spot these beautiful frozen waterfalls. It is a great place for a visit with babies and toddlers as you can see the frozen cascade from the parking lot."

"You've finally made it to the Bow Valley!!!. I bet Whistler seems like an age away. Canmore is where I spent majority of my time when living in Canada. Call this place home for the next few days and thank me later!"
