So we thought everything was fine, well upon inserting the key into our cabin door we heard voices inside... Someone had made there way into our cabin earier that evening and... more

We just returned home from our motorcylce trip through Banff and Jasper. We stayed at the Johnston Canyon Resort for two nights. We arrived cold and wet from our ride from Jasper - only to find our cabin had no heat. The gas heater would not light. They came to try and fix it but could not get it started.... more

My wife, two teenage daughters and I enjoyed our stay in a two bedroom cabin at Johnson Canyon Resort. Our historic cabin had been renovated, with an updated bathroom (with both a soaking tub and a shower), comfortable beds and nice, period style furniture. The stone fireplace functioned very well, and wood is available on site at no extra charge.... more

This is a great place, in a wonderful setting. Our cabin was well appointed and clean on arrival. Cabins are situated in close proximity one to the other but parking is conveniuent and care has been taken to preserve trees, natural vegetation and viiews. The only concern is with regard to service. In our 2 week stay the cabin was... more

5 star for location- on the Bow valley parkway. The hikes to upper and lower falls are great and a must do. We even spotted a mightly grizzly on the way ! We had a single room cottage with fireplace( #34)- would give it a 3star only because we had problems with the maid service- they had left a pile... more

We decided to stay here based on the previous reviews we saw. We were there in September and recently saw some others say something about no visible management and it got us thinking. We think they were right. It did not seem to be necessary. We found everything well placed and friendly. If we needed something we found the crew... more

We stayed here for 3 nights in September in a 2 person bungalow. The room (with double bed) was very small but clean and comfortable and well maintained. I had asked for a quiet location and we were in the back of the property far away from the main road, which was great. Parking was right next to the cabin.... more

We really enjoyed our stay at Johnston Canyon Resort. Having travelled extensively to other areas we were pleasantly suprised. The weather was great and saw some deer, elk and a bear. Unfortunately we did not get our camera out in time to take a decent photo. The staff was friendly and most helpful. Kate at the front desk directed us... more

We stayed at this resort for five days in September. We absolutely loved it's rustic atmosphere, staff, food and scenery. Our cabin was a "Two Person Classic Bungalow" and it was everything we hoped for - comfortable, clean and cozy. We had both a gas and wood burning fireplace. Our first night we had trouble starting the gas fireplace but... more

Spent the last 3 days of our honemoon at Johnston (first 3 days at Beckers in Jasper). Our first impression on walking into the room was that it smelled smokey. Well, that's because the fireplace puts as much smoke into the room as it does up the chimney. Our only attempt at a fire was quickly doused and the doors... more
