This is an older property but it has been upgraded. A little bit bigger because it’s older. Pleasant staff. The only thing missing is a place to have breakfast. You have to drive to a restaurant.

Bow River Inn has easy check in and access to room space for mobility challenged guests. However the walls are thin and noise from other guests can be disturbing.

The receptionists were friendly, and the check-in process was quick and efficient. The room was clean, AC was appreciated. However, this establishment is a motel rather than an inn. The walls are quite thin, so you can hear everything happening in the neighboring rooms.

Like the single level, no stairs. Didn't like the entry door, not sealed properly and on a smokey night from wildfires you can smell it in the room which was tough for my wife who has breathing issues. We used green tape to tape up the door.

Great little find in Cochrine, AL Canada
Dont be disuaded by the older exterior. The rooms are spacious and recently remodeled. The beds as well as the bedding were super comfortable It was a breeze to park in front of our door and unload and reload. Sort of the old time motel vibe. After 30 days of traveling, this was the perfect ending. The front desk people were very nice and had a list of nearby restaurants. The town has a young hip feel. Definitely worth the stay.
