About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Running Bear Retreat
Newly renovated chalet tucked away on 20 pristine acres of forest. A short drive to excellent lake, golf, hiking and dining opportunities. Century old Forester trails remain offering plenty of places to explore and feel connected to nature on this private hill with views of the Canadian Rocky Mountains.
The space
Your health and wellbeing are our top priority. The Running Bear Retreat is disinfected, sanitized, and cleaned to the highest standard after each checkout.
When you walk into the space you will immediately notice the mountain views from the living room windows. The rough cut wood ceilings, dining room table and other features were cut and sawed directly from trees on the property. Hardwood floors, custom gourmet kitchen and thoughtful interior design throughout.
All the modern amenities you could dream up. Including a Nespresso machine and french press, fully appointed kitchen with CB2 plate and glassware. Sit back and watch some movies on the 65 inch smart TV and enjoy the fast wifi speeds. Feel restful after a good night’s sleep on tempurpedic/memory foam mattresses with organic cotton linens sheets in every bedroom. Two queen bedrooms, one twin bedroom which can double as an office with a daybed, two full bathrooms, open living space, gourmet kitchen, dining, living space, wood burning stove, hot tub, and outdoor fire pit. There are two decks, the lower with a 6 person hot tub.
You will have the entire 20 acres to yourself, which also includes 2 level camping areas which are vehicle accessible but also hidden from the chalet itself. Old forester paths that were cut 80 years ago remain around the entire property, providing access for a walk through the woods where you may come across natural springs, streams, old boulders and many signs of birds and wildlife. Help us prevent wildfires by collecting your own firewood off the forest floor and enjoy an evening by the bonfire under the stars.
From the open concept living/dining area, watch your favorite movies on a wall mounted swivel 65” Smart LED TV or listen to your tunes on the Samsung Wireless sound system. The TV is also integrated with the sound system, Spectrum TV, including Netflix, HBO, Hulu and Amazon prime. Monopoly and backgammon are located in the den by the wood burning stove. The entire home is all yours to use and enjoy. We simply ask you to treat our house with respect and leave it the way you found it. Give it respect and love. Thank you.
