The Vagabond​ Experience 

Vagabond is an adult only boutique inn, steps away from the gondola at Kicking Horse Mountain Resort, in the heart of the Canadian Rockies. 
From the over-stuffed furniture, wood-burning river rock fireplace, one of a kind split-log bar, douglas fir flooring, to the floor to ceiling windows, makes Vagabond a special and unique experience.
This luxury accommodation at Kicking Horse Resort is just a short 10 minute drive from the town of Golden, and an easy drive from the famous Canadian National Parks' of Banff, Yoho, Kootenay and Glacier as well as the amazing Lake Louise. 
Winter and summer the playground that awaits is unlimited for those who like adventure, the outdoors or those who just love to relax, chill out and recharge.  In the winter, amazing skiing, snowboarding,  and in the summer the playground is unlimited with golf, hiking, mountain biking, kayaking and more.

Our Rooms

All rooms are unique in one way or another.  Beds are queen size with feather-rest tops with duvets. 
Some have balconies which are awesome to sit on and watch the sunrise or sunset. 
All rooms are on the top floor and there is no elevator.  If you have trouble with stairs Vagabond is probably not the place for you. 
All rooms have en suite bathrooms featuring a shower tub enclosure and heated floors which are awesome during the ski season. 

Fun stuff to do

Our backyard is an adventure playground.  In the winter, skiing, snowboarding is fabulous at Kicking Horse Resort. 
Once the snow has gone, you have your pick of everything from whitewater rafting on the Kicking Horse river, canoeing and kayaking on the Columbia River, play a round of golf at Golden Golf Course, horseback riding and  some of the most amazing hiking in the world. Vagabond is a short drive away from Yoho, Kootenay and Glacier National Parks'. We have it all.

Good Eats

We pride ourselves in offering a complementary healthy breakfast to our guests throughout the year. Featured are a variety of options.  Lori's fruit scone recipe is her grandmothers and varies depending on the fresh fruit available. Ken takes pride in his fresh-baked sourdough bread. Eggs, pancakes(ok maybe not that healthy) home-made yogurt, fresh fruit, hot steel-cut oatmeal(winter) and bercher muesli along with home made granola, cold cereals and more are offered daily. Ken will even prepare a latte or espresso featuring Earthcoffee with his vintage la Cimbali espresso machine.
And look for some sweets to end your day on the slopes or after a great hike. During ski season, apres'  ski munchies' is a tradition
