Silvern Lake Trail Bed and Breakfast

Great place nice people but if sharing bathrooms more than 2 people should have more than two towels. Belfast was fantastic

Michaela and Helmut are great hosts, lots of Covid protections in place too. Great breakfast and coffee every morning

Great breakfast, but limited Internet and water. .only TV in the common room. .. Quiet and good bed.

Silvern Lake was a mediocre experience at best. Our greeting of "you're early" set the tone and it really didn't improve much from there. By the third lecture / scolding at breakfast it felt like the experience was to please the hosts. We booked after reading reviews and Silvern's description stating our room would have a private bath -- which I interpreted as if not en-suite, for our exclusive use . With four rooms in the basement and only two bathrooms the math doesn't add up. We only had a bathroom to ourselves because we were the only guests. Only the queen / single room is en-suite which also serves as the laundry & mechanical room. Not sure how the bathrooms are allocated when fully booked. We found the (larger) Wolf Room to be knock-a-knee-on-the-way-to-the-batroom small. The smaller "Glacier" room has a peek-a-boo view of the glacier across the front lawn. The hot tub was also turned off. Silvern Lake Trail B&B is a good 10-minutes drive from downtown Smithers and any amenities like restaurants. You'll want to consider this as the property isn't conducive to hanging out, nor is the common room in the basement. The location is okay for a stop, flop and go the next morning. Breakfast was nothing to rave about. Morning one was an undercooked waffle with strawberries and bananas on it. Day two was a cheese omelette, no sausage, ham or bacon offered. Not on par with the many B&B offerings we've experienced elsewhere, or the included buffet breakfasts at low cost hotels. I wouldn't return or recommend Silvern, the offering doesn't line up with the cost.

We thoroughly enjoyed the stay at Silvern Lake Trail. We wanted to be out of the city in nature - somewhere quiet and serene. It delivered all that we had expected for sure! The hosts were great and the food was plentiful and filling. The hot tub was readily available for us but with our long days of hiking, exploring and photography we didn't have any energy left for our late evenings for anything except a quiet relaxing sleep! Loved the view, especially the night sky and the milky way - superb photography opportunities everywhere! Thank you Mikala & Helmut!

Access Adapt Overcome. 2020 what a heck of a year to be a bed and breakfast. That said they have managed to work within guidelines and still provide a comfy place to stay. Super cute rooms, comfy beds, stunning views and a nice little breakfast

Amazing view, super clean comfortable rooms. Hot tub was awesome!

I had a mountain and glacier view from my room! Yes not every room has that but the property does. If you were in Lake Louise you may have to pay over $800 per night for a location like this. Very nice hosts and the breakfast was enough to fill me up for lunch too. I extended my stay by one extra night here!
