My wife and I stayed in the Birdwood cabin for two evenings and it was perfect. The views were incredible and the amenities in the cabin were very comfortable. The service and food were world class. The staff took pride in their work and were a great team. The drinks were creative and tasty and the coffee was some of the best we’ve evrr had. It was an amazing place to stay and we highly recommend it.+2Posted on Google![]()

Mount Engadine Lodge is an absolute gem! We are still talking about the meals and cozy vibes of this place. The staff went out of their way to take care of us and make sure we had what we needed. 5 stars is not sufficient to show how much we loved our stay here!Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Favorite place in the Kananaskis The Lodge is easily our favorite place in the Kananaskis. From easy check in, afternoon tea, charcuterie and apple pie, delicious 3 course dinners, beautiful patio with expansive views of local mountains and wildlife, nice lodge rooms, comfy bed, great shower, tasty breakfast made to order and delicious sandwiches to go - what more can you ask for. And now there's also sauna and communal fire pit. All the food and cocktails were delicious and staff was knowledgeable and friendly. We will be back.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

A complete getaway... Mt Engadine in Alberta's Kananaskis Country is a cozy, warm and happy home perched on the edge of a spectacular mountain meadow surrounded by gorgeous mountain peaks. Great food, breathtaking scenery and great trails for hiking.Posted on Google![]()

I was here as a local doing a photography tour with my business Owl Eye Photography. It was a reccomendation to my client. The service and staff are unreal. We saw a moose with her baby in the morning. I love the consistent lunch menu and breakfeast fixtures, as well tea time snacks. We had a new breakfeast and dinner each day. The chief Matt has to prepare for all staff and guests on a weekly basis, that takes alot of skill and planning. Sauna is from 10-6. I understand the hours around food, it would be nice to have a evening sauna as its very hot in the day. I wonder if there is a system that could be made around that efficiency. Kananaskis is a magical place and the staff and business do alot to make sure everyone is comfortable. We had our heater not work after the first night, I reccomend double checking this so you can be warm. Even in summer you can freeze ! They were really helpful organizing a solution here. This is my biggest reccomendation to clients coming for their Elopements, Weddings, Hiking.+1Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

We were positively thrilled to stay at Engadine Lodge June 28-30. The food was amazing, the staff were excellent and the scenery was incredible! We stayed in a 1 bedroom cabin (Burstall), which was super cozy. Our stay was only supposed to be one night, but due to excessive rain and snow run-off, highway 742 experienced several rock and mud slides, effectively leaving the roads impassable and the guests at Engadine stranded for an extra day and a half. The kindness, compassion and generosity of the manager (Rai) to guests and to the back country travelers and cyclists who arrived at the lodge with no place else to go was exceptional. Rai and the entire staff took care of everyone and kept the vibe of Engadine Lodge upbeat and safe. It was an amazing experience and a lovely place to be stranded. We look forward to returning again one day!!+4Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Fabulous foodie getaway Secluded mountain getaway with amazing food - perfect for our 25 anniversary celebration. The afternoon charcuterie is epic. Our only “complaint” is not being able to finish all the delicious food. Wonderful hospitality from the staff who were very attentive to our needsPosted on Tripadvisor![]()

Moose & delicious food in the mountains Engadine Lodge was a dream to stay at. Amazing food, friendly staff, and a family of moose right out front of our room. What more could you ask for?! 10/10 will most certainly be backPosted on Google![]()

Lovely place, right in the middle of nature and among the bears. When I was there, there was an encounter with a bear, but despite that, we had a nice stay. The food wasn't entirely to our taste. Breakfast with fried potatoes and tomato isn't really our thing. Fortunately, there were some other things to eat at breakfast. Friendly staff!

My husband and I ended up at this lodge after being lost for about 1.5-2 hours and empty on gas at around 945pm, while there was a wedding taking place. The woman working at the lodge, who was also the wedding planner (?) was soooo kind to us and let us use the WiFi and the landline so we could call for help. Thank you soo much!! We are grateful for your help and are safely back in Toronto. We are hoping to come back and stay at this lodge whenever we visit Banff again 😄Posted on Google![]()

Great service The staff went out of the way to make my stay with my dogs easier by bringing food to my cabin and set aside a spot away from the dining area for our meals. I wish I could hug them all to say my thank you.Posted on Google![]()
