Our stay at the post was magnificent. The rooms were wonderful, and the service was spectacular. If you plan on staying there be perpared to pay a pretty penny. If you can fork up the money, try to stay on the preffered side facing the Pipestone River. This way the trains on the CPR don't inturupt your stay. My family stayed in the "M-Room" which is a two story loft suite. After we came back from skiing they would have wood next to the fireplace so we could have a fire. Also the hotel offers a free tea service in the lobby with pastrys and other great items. We were staying at the hotel on easter, and the pastry chef made delicious choclate Easter Bunnies for al the hotel guests. The Staf are very helpful and friendly, so remember to tip.
