Ferintosh

This small village is located just off highway 21, south and east of Edmonton, Camrose is the nearest main town. Ferintosh is beside the Little Beaver Lake famous for its wild bird life.

This 1930 heritage home has comfortable bedrooms with period furnishing and plenty of dried flowers arrangement, breakfasts not bad. Some of the bedrooms have lake views and the two guys are great hosts and knowledgably about the local area. The home has frequent sightings of ghosts but we did not see any yet.

Hinton

Located about a 45-minute drive heading east from Jasper town but close to the town of Hinton for restaurants and stores. Old Entrance is on acreage on the North Bank of the Athabasca River. Here you can choose either a room in the main house, comfortable cabins or teepees. Camping is also allowed. Breakfast is served in the main house and you can cook meals over the fire pits. Your knowledgeable hosts provide guided horse rides. We really enjoyed ourselves especially sitting around the open fire pit at night gazing at the bright stars. Old Entrance is open year round.
