Unfortunately had poor snowfall in the few weeks leading up to my visit, but otherwise had a great season. Good snow quality when we did have snow and fun layout of the resort. Good off posted opportunities... More

I stayed at the Banff Springs Resort, and the hotel is like a museum. There is as much to do inside the hotel (including bowling) as there is outside.
