The lodge was absolutely great for my first worldpackers experience. The work is simple, one volunteer cooks for the staff every night and you can use and eat everything in the kitchen. I loved the evenings that we volunteers would spend watching a movie or playing games in the office. I spent 6 weeks there, but I think that 4 weeks are a good amount of time. Be aware that the lodge are a bit away from town and if you don't have a car, you're super dependent on somebody taking you to places.

This experience truly couldn't have gone better! The working hours are respected and it was such a fun and lighthearted environment. You will either stay in the staff cabin, a tent or a bunkie. They provide bug spray and bear spray. All 3 meals are covered but you can eat whenever you want. The nearest town is Golden which is 20 minutes driving. Public transportation isn't great so you either catch rides from the manager, owner, another volunteer if they have a car, or you hitch hike. Dinner is eaten altogether each night and 1 staff member is assigned to cook it. We all take turns. 10/10!

My experience in the lodge was one of the best experiences I've ever had! The place, the people, and the connection with nature were incredible. I want to come back! Also, it's a great place to get to know BC and Alberta's natural parks, be around wonderful people, practice new languages, and learn about different cultures. I take the best memories with me and will always be grateful for the opportunity to stay in this beautiful place.

It was the best volunteer place I ever had! Really nice and fun team! The housekeeping tasks were easy to learn and to manage. There are DVD's, games and a "wood gym"🤣 for some free time activities! Once a week each person is supposted to cook for the whole team (whatever you want!). Sometimes we cooked a traditional dish from the country where we are from (cultural exchange) The place is more than 20km out of the city Center of Golden (but still belongs to Golden). So you really need a car to visit the City. We created groups cause the time when I was there only 1 girl had a car.

If you are looking for fun adventures and an amazing time in the Rockies this is for you!!!🏔️✨My time at Mountan the lodge has been incredible. If I could, I would spent my whole summer here. Jim has a great system for volunteers and is really fun and took us to cool trips to see bears or drink a milkshake or the movies. The work is totally fair and the tasks are kind of fun if u do them with someone cool together. Cool people and awesome times!!❤️✨Big thanks to Karyne (the manager) who looked after us and a big thanks to Jim for everything :)

It was a very pleasant experience in all dimensions, emphasizing the care and appreciation for the volunteers, which is why it is highly recommended for anyone looking to immerse themselves dynamically in Canadian culture
