Num-Ti-Jah Lodge

The lodge has been completely renovated and is a delight to stay in. The location is spectacular, offering beautiful views of not only Bow Lake but the mountains surrounding the Lake. The Lodge has been renovated with an homage to it's interesting and historical past . The artwork that graces the walls were painted by either local artists or by individuals who were artist-in-residence when that program existed at the Lodge. The hosts, Bruce and Allison, have had 25 years experience running the Ohara Lake Lodge, one of Canada's premier back country lodges. They were wonderful hosts, and the rest of the staff were equally gracious and helpful. The food was excellent and the dining experience, which seats all the guests family-style at large tables, meant you got to meet and talk with a variety of interesting people. The wines were excellent also, pairing wondering with the entrees. So if you are planning a visit to the incredibly beautiful Banff/Jasper area you will find no better place to stay.

Lake. Louise is just not my scene although that’s where we were staying warm. We took a ride down the road or rather app and came across a gorgeous lake that looks like a mini lake Louise and there we found the magical lodge. I felt like I was in a western movie, not to mention that I got to experience a lake and ice peaked mountain without anyone in sight. I even took a swim I. The frigid waters.
