Welcome to Fair Wind Cottage! This cozy, relaxing spot is perfect for a relaxing getaway or for a feel good spot after a day of adventuring! Nestled in the Crowsnest Pass, you are in the perfect location to go hiking, skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, biking, snowmobiling, fishing, and more with most of this just outside our front door! Fancy something more relaxing? Enjoy one of the nearby coffee shops, read a book by the fire, or enjoy our beautiful spacious yard!
The space
Located in the Rocky Mountains Fair Wind Cottage was built in 1908. This home has seen a lot of change throughout the years. It was once the home to a butcher shop (in one of the now garages), and a full bed and breakfast. We are excited to be going back to its bed and breakfast days and hope to host other events in the near future!
The garden suite is a bachelor style suite with a walk-in shower bathroom, queen bed, and small kitchenette. It is attached to the main house but has no interior access to the house. We hope you are able to come and relax in this beautiful space and take advantage of the spacious garden yard finding a spot to read perhaps, or playing games in the gazebo when the weather is warmer!
We know that a day of travelling can be exhausting so we will have some snacks ready for you upon arrival! We do not have cable tv however we offer Disney+, and multiple channels on Roku. We also have a variety of books and magazines for you to read, and board games to play! Don't forget to also explore the large garden like back yard especially in the warmer months! We also have an outdoor firepit that you can use when fires are permitted!
If you require mountain bike, skis, snowboard, etc storage please contact us and we can make arrangements to have a garage space available for you.
*during summer months the fireplace pilot light is turned off as it produces a lot of heat.
Please note we are just over 1 hour from Waterton National Park, 45 minutes to Fernie, 25 minutes to Sparwood. The Crowsnest Pass is comprised of 5 small towns, we are located in Coleman.
Guest access
You will be able to have access to the courtyard, in the warmer months enjoy a meal in the outdoor dining areas, you can also grab a blanket and settle down anywhere in the yard. The gazebo is also available for you to kick back in. Please note that the treehouse is currently unavailable for guests.
