The house is located in Kicking Horse Resort above the town of Golden, British Columbia. Golden is on the main Trans Canada Highway - the primary east west route - about two and a half hours drive from Calgary. Vancouver is seven to eight hours drive further west. Golden is on the Columbia river at the confluence with the Kicking Horse river. The valley runs north south and is part of the Rocky Mountain trench. The location is ideal for easy access to other resort areas; Banff, Lake Louise, Canmore, Radium Hot Springs, and Invermere, all with one and a half to two hours drive time. The house itself is located on Golden Avenue, a cul de sac of just 15 houses, approximately 300m from the base of the gondola, the main lift access from the centre of the resort to the top of the local mountain and the Eagle's Eye restaurant. Golden Avenue is the third turning on the right after passing the gondola. Not yet shown in detail on Google Earth.

Further details for this vacation rental in Golden, British Columbia

Day trips: Inukshuk is a nucleus for site seeing and adventure in the Canadian Rockies. Within 1 1/2 hours drive time you can reach Banff, Lake Louise, Emerald lake Lodge, Rogers Pass, Radium Hot Springs, Invermere. All worth a visit.

Nature / the great outdoors.: Fantastic hiking and spectacular wildlife viewing; Whitewater rafting on Kicking Horse river; Paragliding from Mount 7.

Mountain Biking: Use the gondola in the summer to descend from the summit at Eagles Eye, 7,700 ft to the base of the gondola at 4,000ft.

Ski: Kicking Horse Mountain Resort has the second highest vertical in Canada (after Whistler), but because it is inland has better snow - champagne powder. The resort is better suited to the competent skier/boarder as many of the runs are challenging, but there are good beginner areas and a very capable snow school. There are cross country and snow shoeing trails. The Eagle's Eye restaurant at the top of the gondola has won the award for the best mountain restaurant in North America for three years in succession - great food, but not expensive.

Golf: www.golfgolden.com. Excellent golf course in Golden, close to the Columbia River. Golden's 11th hole rated best par 4 in BC. Other great courses nearby at Invermere and Canmore

Other Activities: Wolf sanctuary. Grizzly Bear refuge. Day trips to Banff, Lake Louise

Adventures and Relaxation in Absolute Luxury

DGNK Leicestershire, UK
Review Submitted: August 10, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
One of the most beautiful, spacious and luxurious homes we have ever stayed in, far exceeding all expectations. The accommodation is truly 5 star, tasteful and lavishly furnished, every need catered to and 360' views of the surrounding mountains. Kicking Horse is a picturesque mountain village with good restaurants and an abundance of things to do and see for all ages. We managed to fit in white-water rafting, pony trekking, hiking, canoeing, water skiing & wakeboarding, hot springs, visits to numerous waterfalls, mountain lakes, National Parks, Boo the local grizzly bear and the wolf sanctuary. Evenings were spent relaxing on the balcony with a glass (or two) of wine, or in the jacuzzi, taking in the beautiful views. An absolute dream week and would fervently recommend to anyone.
