What Our Guests Are Saying

We’ve welcomed thousands of guests to Three Valley Gap, including families, road-trippers, history lovers, and adventurers from around the world. Many return year after year, becoming part of our story. Here’s what a few of them have to say:

This is a must stop on your visit or pass by through Revelstoke. The most impressive collection of vintage, antique, historic buildings/artifacts owned by one passionate family. I was particularly entertained by the mannequins displayed throughout the museum. Beautiful back drop too!
The Ghost Town was a delightful discovery for our family who all delight in history and enjoy vintage cars, trains and old buildings. While a little haphazardly laid out the level of sheer volume in artifacts is amazing and interesting for young and old. We all loved the train ride as it was an experience with a great attempt at being magical. While a little dusty and dilapidated in places, we would strongly recommend taking time to stop in and enjoy this quaint establishment. The size of the train collection was amazing and the ghost train was great fun. Well enjoyed by our family.
Such a cool hotel with an incredible back story. I swam in the lake and it was gorgeous, definitely will stay here again.
An underrated gem that most people have driven by, but never noticed. The ghost town is fun and their collection of planes, trains and automobiles is really cool if you're into that sort of thing. They have plenty to do including paddle boats/kayaks available for the lake, an indoor pool, pingpong, billiards etc. I also enjoyed just exploring the property. There is plenty to discover.
This place is so unique and nifty! Definitely a great spot to stop on a mountain or trans-Canada road trip. I like the hotel itself and its gardens, indoor garden, etc. Rusty the cat is good. My room was decently comfortable if a bit dated (mattress could have more coils). There's also a great cave/grotto room that can be booked. Also really worth highlighting though is the museum/ghost town. It's a pretty legendary effort by the founder of this place to bring in so many artifacts of local history and build an entire town out of it.
I really enjoyed my stay here. Lots to do and explore, which compensates for the lack of wifi and bad TV reception. I was in a South-facing room so it didn't have direct sun, helping a lot with the lack of air con in the rooms. Beautiful location, friendly staff, and the outdoor museum "ghost town" is really cool! Took me a solid 2 hours to see it all. Highly recommend.
Great way to spend a day learning about the past, and seeing the way things were done. Felt like walking through an old western movie. It is a little drive to get to but we'll worth it.
Just happened to see this while passing thru the trans canada highway. Nice staff. Lots of things to see.
Super cool experience. Awesome friendly staff. The rooms are a bit dated, reason for the not perfect rating. To be honest it didn't bother me at all. I appreciate the nestagic feel like I traveled back to the 90s or something. Definitely a perfect romantic get away or just a place to chill on your travels. The museum is very cool and walking the ghost town was a blast. Will definitely be staying again!
What a great experience, we have been passing by this resort for years and always said we should stay there, so we finally did and its absolutely breathtaking. Just the perfect spot for a relaxing break from it all.
