Recently, we had Golf Channel’s Matt Ginella visit the Canadian Rockies to experience our newest deal: The Canadian Rockies Bow’s Best 2014 Stay-and-Play Golf Package (click here to book your own).
He was able to check out and play a few of our amazing courses in just two short days. Here’s what happened when he played Canmore Golf & Curling Club, Stewart Creek Golf & Country Club, Silvertip Resort and The Fairmont Banff Springs:
