We are delighted to have you join us for what we are sure will be a memorable event at our 15th Annual East Coast Kitchen Party Festival at the David Thompson Resort.
Wake up to panoramic vistas of majestic Rocky Mountain peaks painted with hues of blue and white, as the morning sun casts its golden glow over the landscape. Our newly renovated Hotel has 45 rooms for your getaway in the Canadian Rockies. We also have a few pet friendly rooms for the animal lovers out there.
Kick back and relax in our 106 site campground. Whether you have a tent or any size of RV, we can accommodate your needs. Group Sites ranging in size from 10 to 25 sites are available for Group Events, Retreats or Weddings.
We are looking forward to hosting your family reunion, wedding, or group event. We would love to help you with a reservation for an unforgettable experience this year!

Midway Between Banff & Jasper
David Thompson Resort is the perfect midpoint base for the Icefields Parkway drive. We are located 42 km east of Saskatchewan River Crossing on Highway 11. Banff to the Crossing is about 155 km (roughly 1 hr 45 min), and the Crossing to Jasper is about the same — split the drive instead of rushing it, with Abraham Lake and Nordegg on your doorstep.
Comparable Banff and Jasper rooms often cost twice as much in peak season. Our hotel rates: 2 Queens $359/$379 peak, $259/$279 shoulder; 1 King $379/$399 peak, $279/$299 shoulder; Suite $399/$419 peak, $299/$319 shoulder. See all rates.
