Twin Falls Chalet

I've stayed at the chalet four times during the last 15 or so years, and have enjoyed it every time. There is no electricity or running water in the rooms but they are actually quite comfortable. The chalet is a wilderness hike-in lodge so basic necessities are met with few extras; this should be expected of a lodge miles from any paved roads. It is not advertised as anything else other than a step up from backpacking. The food is quite good and there are always interesting people to talk to at meals. The outhouse is quite luxurious with a beautiful view. It is a fun place to stay, and there are fantastic hikes in the area. I've heard that the park service has not renewed the lease to the present operator. I hope the chalet is not turned into another cash-cow" for the park service but keeps its original character."

Amazing place for a backpacking trip (or a hike). Laughing falls is a quick hike away, with Twin falls being further along. Amazing views and very quiet trail in August

Wonderful wonderful views of numerous waterfalls

Super fun

Really nice treat to see such an awesome building at the end of a long hike. Not operating when we were there but still nice to see nonetheless.

Have never stayed here, but have visited it on numerous occasions when hiking up to Twin Falls. Had the good fortune of having dinner here once and the food was incredible. Just love that this overnight “luxury” adventure accommodation exists at all. With a light pack, one can hike here in well under 3 hours from the trailhead at Takakkaw Falls campground. Gives you easy access to the trails heading up the Whaleback and Yoho Glacier, as well as the route up to Des Pollus Glacier.

５０年ほど前訪れました。見た目あまり変わって無いのに驚きです。管理人のおばさんはもう居ないでしょが、優しくしてもらったのは忘れません。ここで薪割りも覚えました。(^o^)ここを起点にツインフォールにも行きました。上から見た滝は忘れられません。たった2ｍほどですが、滝の真ん中に怖くて渡れなかった事が未だにわすれられません。良い思い出です。

Pretty place.

Accommodations and food are dated. Everything needs updating, beds, bedding, lounge, dishes, menu etc. Hiking is fabulous but pass on staying at the chalet.
