Simply the Best
Bed and Breakfast
Mountain View, Alberta, Canada
We knew we wanted to make a visit to Waterton Lakes National Park, Canada. However, it was a challenge finding reasonably price accommodations. I don’t think I found anything for under $200 a night in Waterton.
Fortunately I found a Bed and Breakfast about 10 miles outside the park. Amy and I enjoy the unique experience of staying at Bed and Breakfasts and this place was a very reasonable $85.00 a night (including breakfast for two). Therefore, we booked two nights at the Simply the Best Bed and Breakfast.
This Bed and Breakfast is the home and working ranch of our hosts Dixie and Charlie Murray. They raised ten children in this eight bedroom home. Now that their Children are all grown and “out of the nest”, Dixie and Charlie use five of the empty bedrooms as a Bed and Breakfast.

If you ever plan to visit Waterton Lakes National park, I would highly recommend staying here! The only problem that some people might have is that the rooms do not have their own private bathrooms. This is common among Bed and Breakfast and has never caused us any problems. Especially not this time as we were the only guests at the Bed and Breakfast during our two nights stay.

I got up early on Tuesday Morning to hopefully catch a nice sunrise with the Horses and Cows on the Ranch. It wasn't the most spectacular sunrise I have ever seen, but sharing it with the animals on the ranch made it very enjoyable.
