Spouse jogged about the golf course one morning & accidentally stampeded a large herd of elk; greens fenced to keep the wildlife off in winter but big bull elk managed to trespass anyway.

We were there last summer and we sat outside on the patio. Our lunch was delicious and the service was excellent. Of course, you are at the Banff Springs, so it was a bit pricey, but not over the top. Something I should mention on our recent trip in March was we discovered that you can cross country ski on...

Spectacular. This course has amazing views, some beautiful holes including some elevated tee's. A good chance you will run into some wildlife as well.

Usually able to find several Elk roaming the course, since they are becoming unwelcome in Banff town, especiall during rutting season. They are magnificent animals, but, I am saddened they are now being farmed for commercial consumption. We also rented bicycles at the hotel and followed the many trails.

One of the most pituresque non-seaside courses you will find. Okay the grasses are very different because of the altitude and sometimes a late snow melt can make it a little less inviting but when you're hitting the ball up to thirty percent further than usual because of the altitude, you know you'll be back for more!
As an average...

The course was not in peak condition as it was just coming out of winter, but the setting was stunning and the ground squirrels made me feel like I was in the movie 'Caddie Shack'. Would love to go back. Had the best hot dog there I had in my whole time in north America!!
