Douglas Fir Resort & Chalets Review
The huge indoor water park and playground at this resort on Tunnel Mountain are sure-fire hits with families. The water park has two waterslides, a swimming pool, a kiddie pool, two hot tubs, a sauna, and a steam room. Nearby is a fitness room where you can work out while watching the kids play. Outside is a basketball court and a barbecue area. The rooms range from bachelor suites for two people to one-bedroom lofts with separate kitchens and living rooms that accommodate six comfortably. You might also choose one of the A-frame chalets with multiple bedrooms. No matter the option, the units aren't fancy—just clean and comfortable, with basic wooden furnishings. All have well-equipped kitchens, and most have wood-burning fireplaces and balconies or patios.

The Canadian Rockies had been high on my list for years, and I could hardly believe my good luck when I was invited to present a workshop there in conjunction with the Canmore Folk Festival. Read more

This is about travel to Canmore and Banff, but the primary purpose of the trip was skiing, so apologies to those not interested in the ski specific comments below:
