    “Location, comfort and an all-inclusive stay. The surrounding area is quiet and absolutely breathtaking. Open fires, indoor heating, modern furnishings and beautiful blankets from Anián ensured warmth and a sense of luxury. The Furo tub was a lovely addition to the Num-Ti-Jah room. Shared meals with limited access to internet meant we made new friends and I had my husband all to myself!”

    “What a special place. We felt like we made new friends of the people we ate dinner with and those we had a drink with after dinner in the beautiful lounge. Their goal is to make you feel at home and we did. Fyi, no AC in the rooms but thankfully we had a cool night. No WIFI or TV's....nice to be off the grid! Bow Lake is magical. Splurge and stay for a couple of nights! Dinner, Breakfast and lunch included.”

    “Localização na frente do lago Bow. Refeições inclusas, inclusive a ideia de oferecer snaks ao invés de um almoço propriamente para que os hóspedes pudessem passear livres de horário. Quarto bem amplo e confortável, com box e chuveiro ao invés de banheiras.”

    “This is a place unlike any other. Very unique; the staff stay on property for a few months while working during the summertime. They were incredibly kind. The owners were there when we were and were also very gracious. The location is fabulous. Where else can you go outside your hotel room with a coffee cup and a muffin in the morning and walk along a glacial lake before breakfast? Amazing!! It also has very easy access multiple trails around Bow Lake. Regarding meals, the dinners were extremely tasty and the ambience inside is very cool. Really nice to have the to-go lunches, too. The only warning I have is that you have to prepare to be very social - at dinners and during breakfast you have assigned seats with other groups at the tables. Assignments changed each night. It was fun but also could be exhausting after a long day, and dinner could take a few hours. Overall, we had a very unique and unforgettable experience. ”
