“Fantastic lodge in a beautiful setting”

Fantastic lodge in a brilliant location. Can't see a property for miles! The quiet is lovely and peaceful. The lodges are very well equipped and the furniture lovely. The lodge had everything you could want and the hot tub is a lovely added bonus. Opportunity to get up close to the animals was great for the kids. We had a lovely time and wish we could have stayed longer.

“Relaxing weekend getaway. Friendly hosts. Great views.”

Relaxing property. Very quiet and secluded. 2 person Hot tub and a BBQ on each balcony. Lots of hiking or horseback trails to do in the spring and summer, and the same trails can be used for horseback or snowshoeing in the winter. Almost no cell phone reception, and slow wifi, so it forces/allows you to relax and unplug.

“We will be returning for the third time.”

“Perfect place to escape from the city and enjoy your quite time with nature.”

Elaine and Al were such amazing, super-friendly hosts. They introduced us to their house and their animals, not to mention their stories about how they started Motana Ranch. The private hot tub is something you must try; turn off your phone and the light, and you will see stars gazing at the sky while holding your drinks.

“Perfect romantic getaway!”

Beautiful remote and quiet location, very cozy and comfortable lodges that were set up and decorated with great care and provided everything we could have hoped for to the last detail. Loved the cowboy theme and private hot tub in a snowy winter setting! We would have loved to stay longer than just one night.

The hot tub was amazing

Everything was amazing!! The view was beautiful and the lodge was perfect. We will definitely be back!

“Amazing stay for animal/nature lovers who also want some luxury! Could not be happier with our stay”

Unbelievably stay, absolutely beautiful, a nature lovers paradise, could not recommend enough.

“Great experience would like to return some day”

The tenderloin steaks - fabulous.

“FANTASTIC!!!”

Loved everything!! Fabulous setting. The cabin was lovely. Really well equipped. Very cosy. Plenty of towels for the hot tub. Peaceful location. Stunning scenery. Elaine and Al’s hospitality was 10/10. Nothing was too much trouble. Elaine’s breakfast was legendary. So yummy. I could go on and on about how great it was. Al very generously made sure we got on and off the ranch safely in the snow as our car wasn’t up to the job (rental). Highly recommended. Thanks so much to Al & Elaine. We are looking forward to recreating Elaine’s quiche!

“Rustic, quiet, and beautiful”

It was a lovely cabin, and the views were great. So quiet and relaxing. Having our own hot tub was amazing. Cabins were delightful and equipped with kitchenette, bathroom with shower, tv, DVD player and movies, games, etc. We had the chance to feed the baby calves, too.

Peaceful and remote location if your looking for somewhere quiet to stay.

“A good place! Confortable!”

A good place to spend a few quiet and relaxing nights. Next door is a nice farm. Spacious, comfortable and very clean. Good price. Very friendly owners! I recommend it. Thank you very much.

Beautiful view and very nice decoration

“Ideal stopping point between Whistler and Jasper in a beautiful, quiet spot.”

Stunning location - sitting in the hot tub early in the morning looking up at the trees was a special memory.

The location and feeding the cows. The hot tub is great. The was very comfy and the cabin facilities very good.

“Very restful day for us going nowhere!”

The location was very peaceful and the cabin had lovely views. We enjoyed the hot tub on the deck outside. We also enjoyed helping milk the cow and feed the orphan calves.

“Authentic ranch experience”

Very peaceful out in the countryside with grazing deer, bird song and a comfy bed with a cosy fire. We enjoyed the nearby Iron Horse pub which felt very authentic. It was lovely to bottle feed the calves too!

“Just what we needed”

Beautiful location. Peaceful. Very friendly owners and animals.

“Lovely location, enjoyed seeing the animals but cabins needs updating in places”

Location, the farm animals, hot tub. Comfy bed, good shower.
