General Overview

Please note we are not currently updating our calendar as the town of Canmore is viewing these platforms as tourist homes and considering disallowing exchanges. We are keeping our membership active to make sure we complete our wonderful hosts who did non simultaneous trades with them. We will update if we learn we are allowed exchanges as we only offer our primary home when on holidays. We wake up to views of the mountains, and continue to have views in every room and deck (4), sometimes making it hard to wander any further than to get more coffee. It’s just a cozy house, nothing fancy, but feels like a home made for great memories. We walk or bike out our door for easy adventures of hiking. Hopping in the car or bus gives you the Kananaskis Provincial Park and Banff National Park only minutes away for any kind of mountain sport you can imagine. Don’t feel adventurous? Look up restaurants, coffee shops, craft beer and distilleries, art and culture opportunities in abundance! Please enquire about possible vehicle, bikes, and sport equipment use. If we are not using these ourselves while away we will make them available. Do inquire if you don’t see dates available. We only exchange when away on vacation as this is our primary(and only home) we do have a basement suite listed as a private hospitality option when we are home. We are avid skiers and have IKON pass so switching homes for same dates with those who also have passes would be fun!

Feedback

  • It was a real pleasure to host Paula and Ron at our home in Brisbane. We had a lovely, friendly video ‘meet up’ and all communication was timely. They are clearly responsible and considerate people who carefully looked after our home and car. They also took loving care of our supposedly ‘shy’ cat and won her complete trust. Paula and Ron fully embraced the area where we live, including all the wildlife. We look forward to keeping in touch with our new PLU friends.

  • Ron & Paula were fantastic guests who really embraced our local community. We had great communication leading up to their stay and no issues at all whilst we were away, we even got some photo updates :). We returned to a clean house with all the laundry done and some lovely gifts. We would welcome them back at anytime and we look forward to staying at their home in 2026.

Paula

We are a recently retired couple looking to exchange our primary home in Canmore, Alberta (20 minutes East of Banff National Park in the heart of the Rocky Mountains). After wonderful experiences with house swapping for a ski road trip we want to open our home and hearts for more adventures!
