Cathedral Mountain Lodge Opens May 24 For 2007 Summer Season
Up-Scale Accommodation Re-Opens This Spring and Offers Preferred Opening Rates

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Canada – Cathedral Mountain Lodge, re-opening May 24, is the newest luxury escape offering the privacy and comfort of exclusive log cabins in the middle of one of the most naturally stunning and serene places on earth – the Canadian Rocky Mountains.  This wilderness resort is set on the glacier-fed Kicking Horse River in Yoho National Park, British Columbia, a scenic two-hour drive from Calgary, Alberta.

To kick off its 2007 season, the resort is offering preferred early season value of up to 50 percent below regular costs.  From May 24 – June 10, rates for a Mountain View Wapta King Cabin at Cathedral Mountain Lodge begin at $170 CAD per night.  Standard lodge pricing will reconvene June 11 through the end of the season when the resort closes for the winter on September 30.

Another attractive option for traveling couples is the “Romance by the River Package:” three nights accommodation in a luxury cabin, champagne and hand-made Callebaut chocolate dipped strawberries upon arrival, picnic basket breakfasts, and a three-course gourmet dinner for two at the Riverside Dining Room. Package prices start at approximately $780 CAD per couple.  This package is available from May 24 – September 30, 2007. 

Cathedral Mountain Lodge and its 29 surrounding luxury log cabins allow an escape from the frenzy and stresses of city life and is the perfect remedy to revive, renew and replenish with an infinite array of recreational activities.  The newly completed timber frame lodge, built with re-claimed Douglas fir posts and beams, was designed by renowned Vancouver architect, Brad Lamoureux. The Riverside Dining Room and Great Room are distinguished by an indoor/outdoor river rock fireplace, 24-foot vaulted ceiling and 18-foot high windows, providing majestic views from every vantage point.

Cathedral Mountain Lodge’s cabins all embrace the grandeur of the Rocky Mountains with beautiful beams of natural light streaming through the doublewide windows. All cabins offer a wood burning or gas fireplace and deep soaker tub. Guests can curl up in the sitting area amongst the cozy throws and cushions and admire the beautiful views of the rippling river waters and one of a kind background of stone-cut mountains.

Cathedral Mountain Lodge is part of the Capilano Group of Companies (CGC), which is owned and operated by Nancy Stibbard, who has developed a number of world renowned properties including Capilano Suspension Bridge and Treetops Adventure in Vancouver and Moraine Lake Lodge near Lake Louise. A new resort project is also expected to be finished in 2009 on Mackenzie Beach in Tofino, on Vancouver Island.
