We checked into the Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge which sit on Lac Beauvert, a lake surrounded by pine trees with snowcapped mountains in the background. As we entered the park, we spotted Mule Deer and Elk and were once again reminded to keep our distance.
The setting reminded me of summer camp with a main lodge surrounded by cabins but obviously, a bit more upscale with spas and find dining. There were plenty of outdoor activities from hiking to kayaking on the lake.
At one point, I joked about how this felt like Crystal Lake from “Friday the 13th” and that the main lodge felt a little bit like “The Shinning”. The place also reminded me of the lodge’s in the Catskill Mountains where they filmed “Dirty Dancing” as well as a few episodes of “Mrs. Maisel”
After we checked in, we walked around the property for a bit, took some pictures. There were plenty of ground hogs everywhere, I had no idea groundhogs looked so much like squirrels . We also noticed that the trash receptacles were bear proof. I would not want to run into a bear!
