CANMORE, Alta. – You can't get much further into the backcountry than Mount Engadine Lodge, a boutique property an hour from Canmore, Alta., and two from Calgary. But Castleavery Hospitality Ventures, composed of Calgary area investors, has moved occupancy from 32 per cent to 85 per cent in three years.
As the only guest house in Spray Valley Provincial Park, Mount Engadine started operations in 1987. It is a backcountry lodge and nature retreat rich in creature comforts. The Castleavery team has preserved the lodge’s longstanding approach to sustainable tourism, which has garnered awards and is a respectful fit for the gorgeous provincial park around it.
