Book it on up to Banff's Buffalo Mountain Lodge
Take in the views while breathing fresh mountain air
It has space for large events
Relax in the room for a TOTALLY NATURAL, strategically lit family dinner
You can't buy happiness — but you can buy a ski pass, and that's pretty close
There are all kinds of mountain activities nearby (but that doesn't mean we're gonna do them all)
You can rent the O'Connor house for private living
But we'd still go to the main lodge for breakfast
Things get kind of magical at night
Call ahead to get a Fido-friendly room
