This was the perfect place to get the full Banff experience. The cute porch faces the majestic mountains where I spent every morning with my coffee. The house itself provides the comforts of home. Plenty of space for 4 people: such a nice kitchen supplied with everything you would need if hiking or just staying in for a quick meal. The location is perfect to walk into town. Overall was a great and would definitely stay there again!

The Cedar was exactly what we needed for our stay in Banff. Check in and out were easy. The hosts were very responsive to our requests during our stay. The location and views were perfect. The Cedar has been well maintained, the cleanliness and appearance are exactly what you see advertised, and hosts are the best.

The property was very clean. The beds and linens were excellent. Plenty of hot water. The refrigerator is too small for four people. We enjoyed Banff. Public parking is very expensive in Banff..
