Weekend Trip to Glamping Yurt at Radius Retreat
We had a wonderful glamping experience at Radium Retreat! 🌲✨
The site was easy to locate and fully drivable, which made arrival stress-free. The place is very clean and well-kept — you can tell the owner puts a lot of care into it, and we particularly like the composting toilet. The indoor fireplace was a lovely touch and easy to set up, we had a good sleep during the stay. We also enjoyed the privacy — we didn’t see other groups during our stay, so it felt like we had the entire retreat to ourselves. For a natural site like this, it was a pleasant surprise to have bio-friendly shampoo and body wash provided when we arrived at the shower place.
A few things to note: the The watering hole/shower room is about a 20-minute walk from the Warren, so be prepared. Reading the map and guidebook in advance is highly recommended, as there are some activities that the retreat site can offer. We could have got lost if we didn't read the instruction getting to the watering hole (There is one more junction that the map didn't show). More photos online would also help guests get a clearer idea of choosing yurt or getting around. Lastly, reserve extra time to explore the trails — I didn’t get the chance this time and wish I had!
Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful and well-run glamping getaway.

We had a great time Glamping here with our two little boys! It was the perfect way to camp in comfort (and warmth) with them. The cabins/tents and bathrooms were clean and well maintained. There was access to running water (non-potable) for dishes. The sauna was brand new and a definite touch of luxury. The staff were so friendly and approachable.

4 nights at Trappers Hill Lodges & Campground
Wow what an experience, the drive up was a bit rough our first time but after the 2nd time it was no problem, our Honda civic got us through no problem! We loved the view from our cabin and enjoyed the sauna and Cold plunge after long days and in the early mornings. And we had Dusty (Campground cat) keep us company during the rain fall in the mornings and cuddles by the fire at night time on our last night. Coming from manitoba to camping in the mountains was an absolute adventure and would/will 100% come back, we had a leak in our cabin but Pete came and sealed it up the next day and gave us a free bundle of wood for any troubles we delt with. I recommend this place highly as its an experience you will never forget! Me and my honey will never forget our adventures there and am glad we found this gem.

Beautiful views. It was like you had the whole mountain to yourself! There was a nice level gravel pad to park the camper. The road up and down to it was a little tricky with our size rig (34ft 5th wheel) but we made it ok. The only negative (which is beyond anyone's control) is that the mosquitos were REALLY bad. We heard this is an exceptionally bad year for them. Otherwise the place was lovely!

The place is quite and there is a beautiful view. The tenants are adorable and very helpful.
I was impressed because there were showers and a sauna ! I can't remember being that on the website when I booked. We could also make our own fire next to our shelter.

The most beautiful place i've stayed at.
The morning view was great.
The tents were awesome, kept the heat from the morning and with our sleeping bags it was more than sufficient. We had kids with us so was afraid it would be cold at night, but there was no issue.
5/5.
The host also comes to give us a quick info, and suggestions on area to visit if we're in town etc.

A beautiful space in the middle of the mountains! The tents were incredibly clean and comfortable. Appreciated the sheets on the beds as I forgot some!!
They are not joking about needing clearance underneath the vehicle though as the last part of the road was quite off roady!

Definitely one of my favorite places i have camped anywhere. The remoteness and the beauty and the peace! I’ve seen it said and agree that pictures just wont do it justice. The view was just amazing to take in. The wildflowers around the fire pit were so cool. Even the pit toilet was bright and comfortable! I would love to go back and spend more time there.

It was our first time in the area and at Trappers Hill. We normally head to the National Parks - so glad we didn’t this time!
We stayed in a Trappers Cabin - exceptional view!! with a comfy cabin, rustic and peaceful. The shower facilities and outhouses were well maintained and the camp managers, Pete and Erin (and family) made us so welcome.
We spent some time at nearby Ghost Lake and a hike near Canmore - about 1 hour away. It was a perfect weekend and we already booked again for August.

I discovered this place by chance and chose to stay here as the final stop of my Banff-Jasper road trip.
Although I arrived late, I could instantly feel how amazing this place is.
The sauna was excellent, the cabin was beautiful, and the off-road trail was just perfect everything came together to create such a precious memory.
I highly recommend this place.
