This was my fifth time to Vagabond Lodge.....and I will return time after time after time. The rooms was spacious and inviting....even with two adults and one teenager we were not on top of each other as you are in a hotel room. The breakfast is unbelievable. Scones warm from the oven, fresh fruit, and other continental foods available. There... more

Vagabond was great for us. Room was spacious and comfortable. Bathroom was roomy and modern. Breakfast was super, many tasty selections prepared and presented nicely. Free internet station and free WiFi setup. No liquor license but bring your own and stash in the fridge. The inn is located adjacent to Kicking Horse Ski Mountain altho closed during our stay. Owners... more

Having gone to Calgary towards the end of trip and deciding we did not like the city ! We went on a mini adventure, back up into the mountains, and stumbled across Vagabond Lodge. Laurie and Ken, are the most welcoming hosts, and having spent 30 years living in Edmonton and being keen skiers, they are fully up to date... more

I was looking for a "get away from it all" kind of weekend - and found it at the Vagabond Lodge (four nights from July 2nd to 6th). Great hosts in Ken and Lori, super comfy beds that would have kept me under the covers until 10, except breakfast ended at 9:30 :O) The breakfasts were very healthy and quite... more

My boyfriend and I stayed at Vagabond Lodge for two nights in early July of 2009 and we had a wonderful, relaxing stay. Ken and Lori are extremely gracious and friendly hosts, and are very helpful with suggestions for activies and dining in the area. The lodge itself is fantastic - a bright and airy, open concept style log house... more

We were very disappointed with this accommodation, having read many positive reviews on TripAdvisor felt let down by the Vagabond. Of all the places we stayed in Canada on this trip, this place represented by far the worst value for money. We stayed for two nights in May, everything in Kicking Horse was closed - gondolas, restaurants, shops, the lot... more

Superb position for either skiing or simply relaxing. Superb hosts - Ken and Lori are the most helpful people to be found and do their utmost to ensure an enjoyable stay. Quiet, comfortable and within easy reach of pretty much everything. Take a break and spoil yourself. more

We spent five nights at the Vagabond in order to escape the summer heat of the Southeast US. What an excellent choice. Ken and Lori are extraordinary hosts. They really want their guests to feel at home -- not only at the Lodge, but also in their Province. They are very knowledgeable about the hiking trails and gave us good... more

The daily breakfast was delicious and hearty with a variety of different foods. The beds were wonderful and the rooms were extremely clean. The owners were spectacular hosts and shared local information with us every day. They were as excited about our hiking choices as we were. The lodge isn't near Banff or Jasper, which is what we wanted. But... more
