Explore on foot, bike or snowshoes(provided), then spend your evening up on the deck around the tree-top propane fire pit. Cook your meals in the outdoor kitchen or on the wood burning stove in the Trapper's Tent. Eat inside or out under the sky, then curl up in the luxurious queen bed to rest up and do it again tomorrow! After two years of building, this is the first year of sharing our labour of love! Be part of our journey by sharing your thoughts with us. Give us listing suggestions and any ideas to improve the Fir and Feather experience.

Overview

About

When train whistles first blew through the Rocky Mountains in the early 1900s, the Canadian Pacific Railway built grand hotels, rustic lodges and backcountry chalets amid some of Canada’s most spectacular natural landscapes. Today, Twin Falls Tea House is a seasonal overnight retreat for registered guests. Stop at the historic log building while day-hiking to enjoy its rustic architecture and breathtaking views of the dual cascades of Twin Falls.

When to go

The best time to visit Twin Falls Tea House National Historic Site is during the summer months, from June to September, when the trails are clear and the weather is favourable for hiking. The site is closed for the season during the winter, making access challenging due to snow and ice.

For overnight stays, contact the Alpine Club of Canada to secure reservations in advance.
