🏔️𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗪𝗲 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗱 𝗡𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗟𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗟𝗼𝘂𝗶𝘀𝗲: 𝗕𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗿 𝗖𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗸 𝗯𝘆 𝗕𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗰𝗮𝗺𝗽
For the first half of our Canadian Rockies trip, we stayed at 𝗕𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗿 𝗖𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗸 𝗯𝘆 𝗕𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗰𝗮𝗺𝗽, and this place was such a vibe. ❤️
Tucked away in Banff National Park just a short drive from Lake Louise, Baker Creek feels like you’ve escaped into your own little mountain retreat. Think log cabins, tall pine trees, a glacier-fed creek running through the property, mountain views and wildlife right outside your door.
This was exactly the kind of place I pictured when I started planning a trip to the Canadian Rockies.
I loved being able to come back after a full day of exploring, pour a glass of w**e and just enjoy how peaceful it was. 🍷🏔️ And apparently we weren’t the only ones enjoying the property — we had squirrels running around, spotted elk nearby, and there were plenty of reminders that we were very much in bear country. 😂🐻
One of my favorite things about Baker Creek is that it feels secluded without being too far from everything we wanted to do around Lake Louise. The cabins and suites sit just steps from Baker Creek, and there are creekside fire pits, a sauna and steam room, complimentary bikes, lawn games and a little Creekside Café for coffee, breakfast, lunch and snacks.
And those complimentary bikes were such a cute touch! 🚲
This stay gave us the cozy, rustic side of the Rockies before we moved into Banff for the second half of the trip, and I’m so glad we split our stay between the two areas.
If you’re planning a Banff trip and want something that feels a little more peaceful, woodsy and tucked away from the crowds, Baker Creek by Basecamp is definitely worth looking at. ❤️
I mean… cabins in the woods, mountain views, wildlife and w**e?
Sign me up. 😂🍷🏔️
