10 minutes from Waterton Park boundry, Quiet Peaceful Secluded Nature Get-a-way
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.

Views and wildlife spotting are wonderful, we even saw a moose in the water one evening.
Everything you need for a quiet getaway, and close to Waterton.
It was about 25 or so minutes from Waterton, easy drive, beautiful drive. Comfortable cabin with everything you need. So quiet and peaceful with no one around, no noise, all the stars in the sky at night. We loved it.
Really enjoyed the old cabin vibe. Fire pit was perfect and the views in the morning and at sunrise were amazing!

The cabin is super cute. Love the proximity to Waterton. The views from the property are just so relaxing with the pond, the woods, the fields and the mountains off in the distance.
We loved our stay at Trapper’s Cabin! It was very cozy and secluded. Perfect place to unplug & enjoy nature. We will definitely stay again but for longer.
This cabin is perfect if your looking for peace and tranquillity.
It was so nice to be away from the crowds
Absolutely stunning location beautiful sunsets witnessed up on the hill.
I would definitely return and recommend
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.
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.

Lovely cabin in the middle of the woods and there is a peaceful pond infront of it with muskrats swimming. Lots of birds and a couple deer visited. So zen. Peaceful. All you hear is nature. Away from the rustling and bustling of the city. Loved it there. And our host is very nice, and helpful. Even gave us a free tour of their heritage farm and the kids get to play and pet animals in their farm. Truly a wonderful experience.
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!
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! ❤️
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.!

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.
Enjoyable and cozy time with hubby. Found areas near to take walks. Close to all our visits at Watterton. Beautiful sunrise the 1st morning. Very private and quiet.
Amazing location with view of pond life. Watched the moose, ducks, heron deer and beavers like it was a show put on for us. Nice isolated spot surrounded by nature, but not far from Mountain View and Cardston. Hosts were very quick to respond to any questions and went out of their way to accommodate our needs!
We had a very nice stay at this cabin. It is very quiet and secluded. Most of our time was spent hiking in Waterton and this was a good place to use as a base for our adventures. The cabin was clean and well equipped. We had everything we needed and Cheryl even put some ice cubes in the freezer for us.
What a wonderful place! Enjoy the amazing birds and wildlife sounds. The host was very hospitable and responsive! While our 16 year old nearly fainted when he learned there was no wifi, as parents, we loved the tranquility. Would stay again!
