The property is situated in lively, artistic Canmore, surrounded by the majestic Canadian Rockies, just moments from Banff. The b and b unit is situated in a modern, well-maintained complex with garage parking and a luxurious pool, sauna, and jacuzzi. The unit is clean, well-appointed, and comfortable, with all the amenities of home. Lianne was extremely helpful, and her communication was clear and responsive. I wish we could have stayed longer. We hope to return. I recommend this booking without reservation.

WoW...What a great little getaway space. Lianne and Trevor cover everything while you are in their home. Although we brought our own, they even had a Charcuterie board! This was a girls golf trip and we not only enjoyed beautiful Silvertip but coming back to the condo for a great soak in the hot tub! Can't wait to come again!

First and foremost, the owner has done an amazing job setting up this vacation rental. Everything you will need for your vacation is provided all the way down to robes for the pool/hot tub. Also, the kitchen was well stocked with all items you will need for your group including many thermal cups for all. During our stay it was -23 degrees out which made the heated underground garage a massive plus to the property. Finally, this was one of the cleanest properties I have stayed in. Overall, I would recommend to anyone looking for a great place to stay!

This is a great little place! Truly one of the most well equipped and nicer VRBOs we've stayed in. Super thoughtful touches. Great robes, insulated cups, comfy sheets, extra fluffy blankets and even bear spray 😬 The entire complex is nice, hot tubs and pool we're clean and easily accessible. Terrific experience! Thanks so much!

Three girlfriends spent the weekend to celebrate our 50th birthdays. The condo was nicely stocked and had everything we needed. We barbecued both nights for supper. We used the hot tub, pool, sauna and exercise room. The housecoats were a nice touch. Owners were very responsive in dealing with a door code that wouldn’t work. We definitely plan on returning and are hoping to make it an annual trip. We would definitely rent the Grotto Mountain Guesthouse again.

Great location in Canmore. Plenty of spave for family of 4. Amenities on location were great! Kids lobed the pool and hot tub at the end of a long day exploring all the parks. Downtown Canmore is definitely less busy than its Banff counterpart. Thank you for having us! We had a wonderful trip!

Stop your searching and book here! This really was as wonderful as the reviews and photos advertise. My husband and I travelled with our 19 year old son and 17 year old daughter for 6 nights. The condo is decorated with a real nice mix of cozy modern. We had noticed that there was a brand new rug in the family room- you can see that the owners are up-keeping the space. The kitchen was very well equipped, clean and organized. Beds were very comfortable- need to find out where those soft sheets came from!! My kids were happy sharing the room that we had set up with 2 single beds- both were comfortable. The 2 separate washrooms were really nice for the week. The view of the mountains out the window and over the steaming pool and hot tub were admired all week! This was a better than ever expected stay. We enjoyed Canmore and the short drives each day west to so many different locations around Banff and Lake Louise to skate, downhill ski, hike, shop and lots of eating out- and loved returning to Canmore each day. Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful place with us!

The layout is really good. The two bedrooms are separated by the well-appointed kitchen and living area which makes each room very private. The unit is tastefully decorated and is very cozy. Kitchen has everything you'd ever need. Parking the car in the parking garage felt very safe and secure and would be especially nice in inclement weather.

My husband and I spent ten days in the Grotto Mountain Guesthouse and we were so pleased with our stay. It was our first visit to the Canmore/Banff area and we were thrilled with the gorgeous grandeur all around us. When returning to the guesthouse after exploring the bountiful local natural wonders each day, it was comforting to experience beauty inside the guesthouse as well. The furnishings and decor were as pretty as the views from the windows. In addition, the staff members we encountered during our stay were warm and helpful and our communications with the guesthouse owner were prompt, professional and pleasing. We highly recommend the Grotto Mountain Guesthouse. Thank you for everything!

Thank you for hosting us over 5 nights at the Grotto Mountain Guesthouse. Our family of 5 (3 adult aged kids) made ourselves at home and enjoyed all the amenities like a full kitchen (and well stocked), grill on the patio, pool, and hot tub. What a great location in Canmore near a nice little downtown, easy access to grocery stores, and a short drive into Banff. We loved our time there and in the area hiking and sight seeing. Thanks again for hosting us and hope to be back in the future.

We only used the pool once as it was pretty busy on the long weekend. The owners were very helpful and checked in to make sure we had what we needed. Only thing I’d add is a streaming device for the tv but overall, 5 stars and would stay again.
