Trapper's Cabin is perfect for a couple or a family. Economically priced at $250.00 (not including taxes. GST and Hotel Tax add 9% to the rental price) per night for up to four people. (over four people is $20.00 per extra person per night plus tax.) It has three double beds and two double bed mattresses in the loft. It has a kitchen, bathroom, dining area and a fantastic view. If extra beds are needed there are R.V. rentals available also that can be brought to the site for you near the cabin. Tents can also be put up on the land. (25.00 per tent per night) Bedding and towels are provided and the furnished kitchen is great for cooking your own meals. It is set in a very private beautiful treed area yet only 5 minutes from the main highway. Goose Island Pond is right out the front windows and is frequented by Canadian Geese, Loons and Beavers. It has a heritage theme with the area's legendary characters pictures and histories on the walls. Truly a unique and pleasant experience. There is a large beautiful fisherman's lake just down the hill (Payne Lake) and the hamlet of Mountain View is only 4 km east where food and gas can be purchased. You will also enjoy the array of wild flowers on the grassy hills beside the cabin. There is also a 2 km hike that can be taken up to Little Beaver Lake near by. Of course Waterton National Park is a must see and offers horse rides, boat rides, restaurants, mountain trails, vast lakes and fantastic wild flowers and wild life to enjoy. The townsite of Waterton is only 20 minutes away.

Nice and Peaceful
The cabin was just as described and fit our needs nicely. It's proximity to Waterton Lake National Park was good. The only issue we had was getting to the property. The directions failed to include the code to the gate. The host responded immediately when we asked for a code, but the code she provided did not work. We were able to get in when a nice neighbor approached us at the gate and, when told we were trying to get to Trapper's Cabin, gave us a code that worked. That was the only glitch in an otherwise excellent trip.

What a beautiful place. It was close to where we wanted to go (30 min from Waterton townsite) but quiet and private. The pond was so serene and the stargazing was great. Comfortable and well appointed, if I could buy a place like this for retirement I would do it in a heartbeat.

Private cabin
Stayed cool in very hot weather. The loft could sleep at least four with two in each room and a comfy futon as well. Easy to find and Cheryl was a great host. Close to lovely Waterton but Payne Lake was great for fishing and paddle boarding. Would definitely stay again.

A hidden gem
The posted photos seriously undersell this cabin which sits on the edge of a small lake teeming with birds plus a resident beaver and some other larger wildlife including deer. The outside deck is the perfect spot for late afternoon relaxation and wildlife spotting. The cabin itself is large, simple and very functional although perhaps the double beds could do with a mattress upgrade! Situated about 25 minutes to Waterton NP entrance it was the perfect location to explore the park and have private secluded self-catered accomodation. The arrival instructions were very clear. Only 4 out of 5 for accuracy of online listing as it was so much better than we expected.!

Great secluded spot
This is a great rustic cabin tucked away from everything but close to Waterton. We only spent a couple nights here as a base for exploring Waterton. I wouldn’t have minded an extra day just to chill on the front porch to read and bird watch.

First Anniversary
We stayed here to celebrate our first anniversary, it was a beautiful spot to be able to do so. It’s convenient to access Waterton and was pet friendly. We enjoyed the ability to cook meals and have the property to ourselves. The host checked in with us prior to arrival and was very helpful. We will be back again, five stars from us.

This was my second stay this year. Don't expect a 5 star cabin. It's comfortable though. If you want comfort around the fire pit, bring your own lawn chairs. If looking for nature and privacy, the property is magnificent. I'll be back. I love this place! ❤️

Wonderful Cabin
I went with my 3 kids and partner and we all had an amazing time. The cabin was exactly as advertised and with everything we needed to have a nice relaxing stay. The google pin was a little off as to the location, but Cheryl was very quick to drive up to where we were and guide us to the cabin. The area was quiet, peaceful and beautiful. We will definitely come back next year!
