Our stay at the Fernie Stanford Resort was enjoyable. The hotel is clean, well-maintained, and offers good value. The rooms are spacious and tidy, with comfortable beds. If you're travelling with children, the pool and waterslide are very popular, often busy with families having a great time. I didn't personally use the pool, but it looked clean and well-kept. We ate once at the hotel restaurant, where both the food and the service were excellent—the dishes were tasty, the portions generous, and the prices reasonable. The breakfast buffet offered many options, with trays consistently replenished. The dining area has a lovely view of the river and mountains. Sandy, the manager, was friendly and very helpful, showing me some highly recommended hiking spots he personally enjoys. The staff made us feel welcome and seemed to genuinely enjoy their work. They worked well together, ensuring guests had a pleasant stay. Since it was my first visit to Fernie, I wouldn’t stay anywhere else next time. The location is perfect—overlooking the Elk River with stunning mountains on either side. The main road through town has just been paved, making travel smooth. Fernie is a beautiful town surrounded by the great outdoors, and I definitely plan to return. I highly recommend the Fernie Stanford Resort.

We had arrived to eat dinner and unpack. We had booked this unit for 6 people. The unit had 2 forks, very minimal kitchen supplies and we had to clean the fridge, pans, cups, glasses and utensils as they were dirty and put in the cupboards. The cupboard door fell off along with cracked drawers and oven bottom drawer being broken. Two of the blinds in the rooms are broken, and the patio door is off track and will require a strong person to open. There is only seating for 4 skinny people at the table and the living room accommodates 3 seating area. The deck had a bbq that was so old that the grill couldn't be cleaned. (staff did say they tried to clean but the bbq was old grills). The deck provided two plastic chairs, no table and no coverage from the hot sun and could not be used during the day. Booked well in advance and asked for main level as we had our mom who is 79, but told when we got there that is all that was available. The unit has 19 metal steep stairs to get to the unit, and the outside light has been covered at the switch so you could not use.
The pool and waterslide were wonderful, along with the riverside view. Arcade is not free to use and does require tokens to play. The breakfast was amazing and offered great choices. We did complain, but not followed up so I went the next day and staff did bring extra utensils, offered to come and fix everything but we wanted our privacy from the time it would take to fix. A 50$ discount was given

Unfortunately the elevator was broken, they did send a message just before we arrived so we could prepare for that. They could not provide conditioner due to a shipment problem. My niece cut her foot on the pool tile and they could not provide bandaids when we asked the front desk…..they said they were out of those too. The breakfast was good and the area was kept clean. The gentleman at the front desk in the morning was pleasant to deal with when checking out.
We made the mistake in forgetting our multi plugin charger along with all the cords, we called the hotel to let them know and they said nothing was turned in by housekeeping staff and no one was in the room after us….so sadly we never got that back 😔

We made a last minute reservation on a trip to Whitefish, Montana and we’re grateful we got a room at the hotel for the night… most places were full and a room anywhere else was double or triple the price. The double bed is was ok and the bathroom was fairly clean. The staff were lovely and helpful. The food at the restaurant was ok. The breakfast buffet was pretty meager and limited. The hotel is very dated and the elevator was out of service. We were on the third floor so it wasn’t terrible. The hot tub was out of service. I suspect that 30-50 years ago this would have been a lovely hotel that currently could benefit from renovations, paint, and updating. It’s unfortunate it’s simply deteriorating through neglect because it has the potential to be a lovely hotel located right on the Elk River.

I would give this a 3 start rating. The rooms are a bit run down and in need of some love. The AC units should not be located where they are. They freeze you out being right beside the bed.
My son enjoyed the pool.
The restaurant food was really good but slow service. Breakfast was not bad.

One of the most unique rooms and hotels in which I have ever stayed. Could use some updating, but a great night. Stairs to the bed in the loft, a jacuzzi in the living room, and a tunnel to the pool and hot tub. Hotel has a games room and what appeared to be a bike shop/fitness room. The waterslide is very slow and the hot tub overlooks the highway. Included breakfast was underwhelming. Location and views over the mountains were amazing.

Situated in a great location, pool & slide was great for the kids. Lofts get quite stuffy & hot, could use better fans or AC units up there. Decks need better chairs & a table so you can actually sit out there & be comfortable, & enjoy the space. Overall for the cost, it’s reasonable, but could use a few improvements

Hate to write this review as this is probably the first negative review I’ve written about a hotel.
The property itself was fine, waterpark was nice for the kids but we had other issues. The lock on our door was broken…absolutely a safety issue. The front staff came to my room and tried telling me it wasnt broken…clearly a lie. They would not fix it immediately and refused to move us to a new room. Absolutely a safety concern and this was not taken seriously.

Second concern is over the showers. If you enjoy a hot shower after a long day…absolutely do not stay here. The front staff kept telling us “they ran out of hot water because of too many people in the hotel.” 3 out of 3 nights my family and I had ice cold showers.

Both the lock and hot showers are basic necessities when staying in a hotel room. For those reasons alone, i would absolutely not stay here.

We stayed here for our family vacation. We were sold on the pool photos. The room had a great layout as we were up in the loft King bed and the kids were down in the main area. They had a clean pack and play for our baby. I did find hairs on the floor from when my baby was crawling around which I didn't love. However, the pool was amazing and our kids had a blast there. We were also surprised about the arcade as I was not expecting that. The restaurant attached to the hotel is surprisingly delicious and we enjoyed eating there a few times. The staff was very friendly and very helpful whenever we needed something. We would come here again.
