On June 18th 2009, Ed and I celebrated our 4 year wedding anniversary. We had never been to Storm Mountain Lodge before but we had heard good things about it and decided to stay for a night. The lodge is only a 25 minute drive from our apartment in Banff and is now by far one of my favourite places in the area.
I believe there are 14 log cabins in total, all originally built in the early 1920's. A wood-burning fireplace, hand-crafted log bed and an antique claw foot tub are just some of the features that make these historic cabins so charming. Add a game of scrabble and some red wine and it was the perfect place for a romantic evening.
The main lodge is rustic with a huge stone fireplace and the most incredible food! Bake brie, Bison Tenderloin, Lamb Shanks and chocolate mousse for dinner and a fresh baked cranberry scone and a cup of delicious local coffee for breakfast.
As soon as I stepped foot inside this place I couldn't stop smiling; it should be named Brena & Edward's Lodge because it was perfect and we couldn't have asked for anything better. It will definitely be tough for the next place we stay to measure up to this!
