The Grand Escape | 180° Mountain Views • Walk to Main St

Located on the third floor in the heart of Canmore, this spacious condo features expansive windows that perfectly frame a stunning 180-degree panoramic mountain view. With designated outdoor parking located directly beside the building (uncovered), leaving your car parked is an easy choice. Restaurants, grocery and liquor stores, boutiques, equipment rentals, and activity providers are all just a few minutes’ walk away. Stroll along Main Street or head to the walking and biking trails lining the beautiful Bow River.

The open-concept living room, dining area, and fully equipped kitchen create the perfect space to relax, connect, and prepare memorable meals.

With two bedrooms and two bathrooms. A primary bedroom with a king bed and three-piece ensuite, and a second bedroom with a queen bed and single overhead bunk, plus a separate four-piece bathroom. The Grand Escape comfortably accommodates two couples or a family of four to five. A pull-out sofa bed in the living room provides additional sleeping space.

Step outside onto the large deck featuring patio furniture and a natural gas BBQ. Ideal for summer dining or unwinding with a cocktail after a day of adventure.

Central heating, designated outdoor parking by the building, elevator access, easy stair access to the third floor, and keyless entry are all included for your convenience.

Amazing views

Can’t say enough great things about this place! They put so much detail into making it a very comfortable stay. Extremely clean! The views are breathtaking and our favorite part of the unit. Comfortable beds and great kitchen with all the supplies. Couple of grocery stores right behind unit as well as restaurants. Walking distance to “downtown” Canmore.
