Well, hello amazing log cabin in the beautiful mountains of BC! I have seen some log cabins in my time and this is a stunner. You are greeted by a super friendly couple (they have a dog contained in the outdoor pen and a cat in the main part of the…More »
Alright, Jacqueline Suzanne's gets an update to a solid five stars. My spouse and I decided to revisit JS's for our recent anniversary dinner. At this point, my expectations were very high and we both were very satisfied, as we had yet another…More »

Are you kidding me? How have I not been to this hidden oasis? How have my Calgary friends not suggested this place to me? I had to attend a business meeting here and I was in shock. It's just beautiful. Lots of water within view, trees and open…More »
The view can be particularly amazing when the mountains are visible and the glass floor is cool. In my opinion, the fee is slightly overpriced considering there really isn't much to do up there but sight-see. It's nice to take visitors and a fun…More »
The Oak Room is the Palliser's upscale lounge, where I enjoyed over-the-top martinis. I sat at the bar with friends and was equally entertained by watching the bartender put together our ridiculous beverages. I felt I should have taken a photo of…More »

These National Historic Sites are worth a visit. The entry fee is nominal and I was there for hours. I'm not into war history but checking out the fortress is still interesting. The views of the mountains and harbor make up for it even if you are…More »
I had a luxurious stay at Bellagio and am in awe of the decor throughout the hotel. The views from my room were stunning. It was just a bonus to have watched 'O', being the best Cirque show I've seen, and eaten at the Buffet, which also is the best…More »
