Dogtooth Vista is ideally located on Kicking Horse Mountain Resort and has great ‘ski-in ski–out’ access. Watch the sunrise over panoramic views of Mt Seven, Yoho National Park, and the Blaeberry through floor-to-ceiling gable end windows. The west gable with its large window onto the ski hill and the Dogtooth Mountain range becomes the centre of attention in the late afternoon. The sunken hot tub offers a great place to gather after an exhilarating day skiing or imagine simply lounging on the sun-soaked expansive rear deck.

The Chalet uniquely combines the old-world rustic qualities of a mountain retreat with modern convenience and technology. The centerpiece of the house is a grand great room which is divided by a two-sided wood burning fireplace into a large spacious kitchen and central island perfect for apres ski festivities, and a comfortable living room. Through the center of the house runs a large impressive timber frame truss, an architectural reflection on the early 20th century activities of the logging railroad, which is still evident traversing through the Dawn Mountain Cross Ski trails just to the rear of the chalet. In contrast, 21st-century amenities are in abundance and include Wifi internet, streamed tv and movies, HD satellite tv, large private outdoor hot-tub, wet-dry Finnish sauna, gourmet kitchen, granite countertops, great room with a 20-foot ceiling, dining room, geothermal radiant heat on all floors, two-sided wood fireplace and wood-stove, drying area and ski storage, tasteful furnishings.

The chalet is very spacious (3400 sq ft)with four bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, and sleeps comfortably 6- 12 people. The 4th bedroom also doubles up as a recreation room and is ideally suited for older children with foosball and table tennis being available on that level. It is perfect for couples and families with flexible rates available.

This idyllic retreat is truly the best of both worlds; perfectly positioned for winter and summer vacations.

Situated in a natural, rural setting amongst the trees, you can enjoy privacy while relaxing in the hot tub on the deck. Ski in-ski out downhill access trails close by, cross-country ski trails, mountain bike, hike or walk - off the beaten track - directly from your door. For the more adventurous, world class backcountry skiing and mountaineering can be experienced at Roger’s Pass and the Bugaboos. Summer activities include 18 hole golf, horseback riding, paragliding, swimming, canoeing, fishing, rock climbing.

Located in a private residential area with access to some of the best skiing in North America and the many fine restaurants, stores, and entertainment available at the Kicking Horse.

Specific details regarding sleeping accommodation include:

Four spacious bedrooms with one king-sized bed that can be divided into singles in each room; the master bedroom has an additional single bed and an underneath pull out single trundle bed perfect for a single-family, two extremely comfortable queen-size pull-out sofa mattresses are situated in the loft area and 4th bedroom. Please note that the loft area is open to kitchen/living area below and front gable windows.

Gorgeous Property close to trails & nature!

We had a gorgeous stay in Kicking Horse. We were in town to run an ultra marathon & the place was a perfect place for us to unwind & enjoy the scenery + hot tub & sauna and then fall into very comfortable beds post long runs. If you're lucky you'll get an amazing view of the Northern Lights directly from the balcony! Highly recommend, we will be back!

Wonderful stay in Kicking Horse!

We had a great experience at this stunning Kicking Horse property. Owners did an excellent job with communication prior to check in. The cabin was perfectly suited for our three families with kids aged 3-13. We especially appreciated the proximity to the hill (there's hidden trail to the Gondola plaza which we discovered on the second day) and the well stocked kitchen. Would recommend in the summer.

This was a wonderful home within relatively close proximity to Banff, Yoho, and Glacier National parks. Ping pong and foosball were devoured by all. Plenty of supplies and dishes in the kitchen. Owner was very easy to communicate with and accommodating! Would definitely stay here again!!!

Great house!

We took a large family group to the Canadian Rockies and this house was perfect. Plenty of room for 8 adults and 3 kids. Views were beautiful from the balcony and the hot tub was refreshing after a day of sightseeing! The kitchen was well equipped and lots of space for eating. We'd love to have stayed longer!!!

Family time

The property was beautiful and a great layout for a large or small group. Lots of dishes and large pots for feeding a group. Loved that they worked with us with options on beds, kings or twins, depending what we wanted. A wonderful place to build family memories. As the youngest grandchild says “a holiday house”. Thanks for letting us build memories!

Dog Tooth Vista is the perfect getaway

I would highly recommend booking this fabulous home for a family/friend getaway. It is even better than the photos portray. It is extremely clean with very comfortable beds and even comes stocked with some essentials unlike other homes we have rented. The fireplace and hot tub make for a perfect day after some skiing or a hike. Danielle is super helpful and always responds to enquiries. Seriously did not want to leave and will be back! Thank you so much for this fabulous getaway

Perfect Family Trip

We stayed at the chalet for a week for a family get together. It was perfect! The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to cook for a large group. There was plenty of space for us all to spread out. The two fridges were crucial for storing all our food. The hot tub and sauna were lovely as the temperatures cooled down. FYI - we learned you cannot hike up Kickinghorse and we did not know that, so we did have to drive 15+ minutes to get to trailheads. I wish we had known that prior to planning a trip to this area but it all worked out.

Guys riding trip

Very clean and well equipped chalet for our large group of adults. Hot tub was awesome and having the grill right out the door was nice for cooking for the group. Everything worked and was as advertised on VRBO. Wonderful place in a great neighborhood and Danielle was super about promptly answering any questions we had. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for close accommodations to Kicking Horse. Ski in/out may be a bit of a stretch (admittedly, we didn't know how to navigate through neighborhood trails) but it was a very short walk/drive to the resort. Note the Pioneer lift closest to the chalet was closed during the week.

Excellent!

We stayed at this house for 3 days in March 2014. Two families, 8 people in total. We travel a lot, and most of the time we rent cottages/chalets for our stay. I believe this was the best house we ever rented, very spacious, clean, modern, equipped with everything we needed. Although it is possible to get from the house to the ski lifts on skis, which requires some skating and crossing some roads, we chose to drive to the resort parking lot (~2 mins max). Every day after skiing at Kicking Horse we would put on the XC skis and spend some time on the XC trails which basically start next to the house. The rental process was straightforward, very friendly owner, overall an excellent experience. We would definitely try to stay at this same place for our next visit to Kicking Horse.

Not really ski-in/out, but super convenient

Cool house, with a beautiful view. Would definitely book again. We loved the hot tub and the sauna. Plus the layout of the house is great for hanging out as a group. The 2 things that I wasn't crazy about: 1. it's really not ski-in/out, as it's definitely a hike to the lift, but on the plus side there's tons of convenient parking at the base lodge; 2. the the owner asked for a bunch of info on each individual person staying at the house under the guise of it was needed for insurance, but after a quick google search, it was clear that it's not... If the owner wants to play that game, they should state that that information will be requested upfront in the posting.
