Amazing experience! The family and the team are incredibly kind and welcoming. The location is stunning — perfect if you love the mountains, hiking, running, or just being surrounded by nature. There's a great atmosphere between the staff and the volunteers, with lots of shared activities and good vibes. The family is present, flexible, and really attentive. I highly recommend this volunteering opportunity! Just keep in mind that the place is quite remote, so having a car makes it much easier to get around, explore, and go on hikes.

The lake and mountains are stunning, I couldn't get enough of the sight. Sophie, Luke and the kids made me feel welcome and I really enjoyed the evenings when we played board games. The best part about the experience was going on skitouring and iceclimbing trips with Leo and Valu on my days off. I had a lot of fun!

This was my first stop in Canada and I loved my time at the lodge. The beauty of the forest and the lake is incredible. The family are truly lovely, respectful and kind. The work was always different and I learnt a great deal working alongside their chef. It's a professional environment but also a family one so won't feel homesick or out of place. I miss the kids already wish the lodge all the best in the future.

I didn't get the full the lodge volunteer experience, as it was under construction and the family was stressed. Pros: You'll meet travelers, explore the Rockies (if you have a car), and learn a lot through varied tasks. Cons: Remote location (1.5h+ from anything), limited food portions (being addressed after volunteers complained), tasks and hours outside of what specified here. Expected to do tasks like dishes outside of work hours. Recommendations : clarifying tasks/hours via call, having a car, and bringing snacks. We left after 2 weeks instead of 2 months due to these issues and more
