Photos and Description of the Canmore vacation estate rental
3 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, 1 half bathroom, games room, sleeps 8

Wavehill provides a true sanctuary for those seeking a very high-end vacation experience. Much more than a spectacular 3 bedroom log and stone home, Wavehill was built with total Hedonism in mind. Over the years Wavehill has been the backdrop to numerous photo shoots of beauty queens, playmates and actresses.

Immersed in nature and all its glory on a daily basis, this magnificent hillside property of over 80 acres is bordered on all sides by crown land and the Rocky Mountain Forestry Reserve. Wavehill offers Stunning, uninterrupted views across the adjacent valley to the Rocky Mountains. Wavehill also provides the ultimate in privacy and seclusion, yet is less than an hour scenic drive to downtown Banff or Calgary.

Wavehill is lavishly furnished with exceptional furniture, antiques, memorabilia and original artworks. Other features include a theater, outside jacuzzi, 8 person steam room, pool table, full size-gym and hilltop observatory with 240 degree panoramic views.

This is a destination where you instantly decompress and escape. Because of the homes exceptional hilltop positioning you are literally siting in a vortex of natural energy, its a home of tranquility and serenity that every visitor to Wavehill comments on when they arrive and remember long after they leave.

I arrived in Calgary 12 years ago and had dreamed of owning a luxury resort style log home in the mountains. I searched all the typical areas to find a suitable location, Bragg Creek, Canmore and Kananaskis Country, but found these areas very congested.

What i really wanted was total privacy, complete silence and panoramic views. I couldn't fine such a place and ultimately paid a deposit on a double block in Canmore, but i couldn't get comfortable with the decision that i had made. Fortunately a friend told me of an acreage that had a partially built log home that bordered the Rocky Mountain Forestry Reserve NW of Cochrane.

As soon as i saw the property i fell in love with the possibilities and promptly cancelled the Canmore contract. I spent a year finishing the home and included lots of exceptional features where i could totally indulge myself as well as entertain corporate clients, friends and family. You can enjoy day outings to a number of world class destinations in the surrounding areas and then escape to a place of great beauty, peace and total silence where you can escape the congestion of the tourist destinations.

Wavehill welcomed us warmly from the moment we arrived with a front yard dotted with White Tail Deer and that welcome feeling continuing as soon as we walked through the door. It felt like Chis was intentional with his design and decor, like each artifact or art piece had a story to tell and as if he put it thoughtfully there for you to enjoy. The views of the foothills and mountains were beautiful and it was not difficult to sit out in the hot tub to enjoy these sights accompanied by more deer and Saw-Whet Owl visits.
We chose Wavehill to celebrate our Mom's 65th Birthday and I don't think it we could have chosen a better place, Mom thoroughly enjoyed herself and so did everyone else. It catered to our family's diverse wants and needs.
Thank you Chris for creating this space and sharing it with us.

Birthday Celebration

Wow... Wave Hill!! What a wonderful experience. My Husband and I, with our three adult children and three extended family members stayed in this gorgeous sucluded log home for two nights. Just under an hour drive from calgary this amazing getaway offered breath taking views with absolute peace and quiet. The house itself was emaculate. The beds were all super comfy. The kitchen was extremely functional. Relaxing in the hot tub under the stars...one of my favorite memories. This
very tastefully decorated retreat was exactly the break we all looked forward to. The home had everything we needed. The photos show very well,even nicer in person. I would highly recommend this getaway. My next stay?...Perhaps a girls weekend. I will be back!!! Thank again Christopher.

OUR WEDDING AT WAVEHILL

5 of 5
Submitted: November 3, 2012 Stayed: September 2012
From the moment we arrived at the big Wavehill gates it was a truly Canadian experience. Traditionally designed log cabin 5 star style! Kathryn and I had our wedding on the property at the Observatory lookout in nature with breathtaking views, it was a special day. Wavehill hosted us and our family that came from Australia to join us. We stayed for the week and enjoyed playing pool, entertaining on the big back deck and discovering all the special touches that unfolded each day throughout the cabin. "Always Love Well" was the theme of the cabin and you could feel the energy that Christopher put into making each and every guest that comes through Wavehill feel a unique and wonderful experience.
