For the first half of our Canadian Rockies trip, we stayed at ๐๐ฎ๐ธ๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ธ ๐ฏ๐ ๐๐ฎ๐๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐บ๐ฝ, and this place was such a vibe. โค๏ธ
Tucked away in Banff National Park just a short drive from Lake Louise, Baker Creek feels like youโve 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. ๐ท๐๏ธ And apparently we werenโt the only ones enjoying the property โ we had squirrels running around, spotted elk nearby, and there were plenty of reminders that we were very much in bear country. ๐๐ป
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 Cafรฉ for coffee, breakfast, lunch and snacks.
And those complimentary bikes were such a cute touch! ๐ฒ
This stay gave us the cozy, rustic side of the Rockies before we moved into Banff for the second half of the trip, and Iโm so glad we split our stay between the two areas.
If youโre 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. โค๏ธ
I meanโฆ cabins in the woods, mountain views, wildlife and w**e?
