The Goat's Head Gatehouse is a quaint, stone chalet designed in the image of National Park Gatehouses and is surrounded by the wilderness of Mt. Robson Park. The unique two story structure offers a sun room with floor to ceiling windows and a massive natural stone wood burning fireplace.

French doors open to a flagstone patio from which to enjoy a morning coffee or, for an evening barbecue to grill that perfect fresh caught trout. The patio overlooks a lovely flower garden with hummingbirds and butterflies and in the background, the glacial peaks of Mt. Robson, the highest mountain in the Canadian Rockies.

The post and beam structure of the Gatehouse was made from pine-beetle killed trees that were cut on the property. Stones for the exterior and interior were gathered locally from quarries and cliff sides but one stone from each of the mountain national parks of western North America were also embedded within the walls.

The wood furnishings and woodwork in the gatehouse were made locally by artisans using reclaimed and recycled wood.

The kitchen contains all the amenities needed to make complete meals and make your stay comfortable. It will be equipped with many staples and pantry items so you need not purchase bulky products to carry around e.g. coffee, tea, condiments, spices, oils, vinegars, etc.

There are two baths, one with a free standing large tub in a cedar plank spa-like bathroom---a perfect way to relax and refresh after a day of sight-seeing or hiking. A walk-in shower with stone walls for that ‘au natural’ feeling is on the main level.

The two bedrooms in the loft each contain a queen, custom-made platform bed---both bedrooms overlook the sun room from a balcony. Each bedroom opens to the upstairs bathroom.

Take a gentle hike right from the front door into pristine meadows (a short trail has been mapped out for you) or walk around the twelve acre private property to find the best view of Mt. Robson and Swift Current Creek. A natural waterfall on Swift Current Creek is 300 meters from your door. Sometimes the view is so stunning it's difficult to know which direction to point your camera!

There are many walks and hikes within 5 km of the Gatehouse. Rearguard Falls is the furthest point of travel for Pacific Salmon and they can be seen in late summer by driving a few km and taking a short walk to the waterfall. Overlander Falls and Hargreaves Canyon are scenic short hikes that are also staging areas for raft tours and high level kayaking. The Trail head for the Swift Current Creek trail starts within walking distance of the Gatehouse and leads up the Revelation Valley (Swift Current Creek) to the head wall of the 91st highest waterfall in the world (currently inaccessible except for real adventurers). The world famous Berg Lake Trail and the start of the 110 km long north boundary trail are also within 5 km.

There are restaurants and shops in the nearby towns of Valemount and Jasper---a 55 minute drive---that offer additional amenities, recreational activities and, world renowned mountain vistas.

    So, this property is really special. It’s frightfully expensive but there seems to be little availability in jasper area. The mount Robson trail, wow, I had never heard of it before this trip but I will see it in my dreams. I definitely want to go back to both this beautiful cabin and the trail. We were 4 Coloradoans and we stayed in lovely places, but my kids liked this cabin the best.

    Absolutely wonderful slice of paradise. With floor to ceiling windows bringing the forest and the mountains inside, and allowing gorgeous natural light to bathe the interior. Through these magnificent windows we watched a black bear in the garden, a pine marten in the flower bed, and numerous beautiful birds. The home is so well appointed with everything that one needs, and the host really made our welcome feel special. We loved our three nights at this property and would highly recommend this site to anyone wanting peace and quiet in a very comfortable home. The amenities were exceptional, and the kitchen stocked with all essentials. We loved reading in the living room, cooking in the well appointed kitchen, and having leisurely dinners with many glasses of wine at the comfortable dining table. Don’t rush through Mount Robson provincial park, stop and savour the beauty of the area, and find your own inner peace amongst the majesty of the mountains.

    We had a wonderful stay here halfway through our roadtrip. We stayed for 4 nights and it was great to have a large space to ourselves instead of being crammed into hotel rooms. We received very detailed directions and on arrival there was a welcome card, flowers and a bottle of wine. The lodge had everything we needed with a fully equipped kitchen, washer/dryer facilities, high quality equipment and plenty of towels and toiletries in the bathrooms. Helpful directions for local walks and bear spray. The lodge is beautifully fitted out and we loved all the wood, the bespoke staircase and huge windows looking out onto the lovely garden. If we were lucky enough to make it back to Canada we would defiinitely stay here again. Thank you, Carmen and Glen

    The gatehouse is a unique, charming, and architecturally impressive accommodation that is surrounded by trees yet from which Mount Robson can be glimpsed. The cottage is clean, beautifully appointed, and comfortable. As a single traveler, I felt completely at ease. Carmen was an exceptional and thoughtful host. I feel very fortunate to have discovered this lovely accommodation.

    This is a high quality vacation home tucked away in the woods. The home was very clean and allowed for some solitude during the busy tourist season in the national parks. The host was very responsive when asked for local recommendations. I would definitely stay here again!

    Absoulutely marveloius stay, felt like we were in a log cabin right in the heart of nature. A very well equiped home. This is a remote spot 60 minutes drive to the main town of Jasper, so it was important to stock up on food before arrival at the property. We were fortuante to be staying with family as the open bedroom arrangement was a liitle awkward as not very private.
