In the embrace of the Canadian Rockies, Canmore isn’t just another spot on the map—it’s where sport intertwines with nature’s grandeur. Picture it: Each swing of your club is matched with a panoramic display of sky-kissing peaks and verdant valleys. And at the heart of it all? The Silvertip Golf Course.

Silvertip Golf Course: A Skyward Sonata in the Rockies

Imagine teeing off where the horizon is stitched with the rugged tapestry of the Rockies. The Silvertip Golf Course, often likened to playing amidst celestial heights, is such a place. Masterfully sculpted by Les Furber, this par-72 marvel unfurls across an elevation change of 600 feet, ensuring your golfing skills are as much on display as the landscape.

With every fairway you traverse, the course unveils over 600 acres of nature’s finest artistry: crystalline ponds reflecting azure skies, woods standing in hushed reverence, and expanses of green that could rival any painter’s palette.

Beyond the game, Silvertip tempts visitors with its culinary craft. Rustica Steakhouse and Trader’s Lounge beckon with a promise of gourmet experiences, perfectly complementing a day spent amidst nature’s magnificence.

A Bear and Bison Inn on Trip Advisor

As someone with celiac disease…

“There are not enough good things or words to say that sum up our time at Bear and Bison. It’s one thing to do business, we felt welcomed into someone’s home. As someone with celiac disease, the tailored breakfast and care given to making the experience as “typical” as everyone else’s didn’t go unnoticed. The staff are exemplary, the room was immaculate (who doesn’t love an in-suite jacuzzi), the view from our private balcony was unparalleled. We will definitely be back, and will choose A Bear and Bison first every time going forward. Thank you for the incredible stay for our perfect mountain getaway.”
