Accommodations in Falcon Lake

There are plenty of great places to stay in Falcon Lake and the surrounding area for the Floppet Weekend. We suggest...

Falcon Trails Resort Located on-site of the event, Falcon Trails Resort offers 11 beautiful post and beam style cabins with their own private hot-tub and access to a wood-fired sauna. Currently, the resort is fully booked for winter weekends, but Floppet registrants are in luck! The whole resort has been blocked off until January 31, 2023 to allow registered participants in the Floppet to get first crack at booking a cabin for the Floppet weekend. Once your Floppet registration is complete, you will be sent a confirmation email. When booking your Falcon Trails cabin the front desk staff will require you to forward this confirmation email on to them in order to confirm your reservation. Don't miss out on this great opportunity to stay on-site for the weekend!

Falcon Beach Ranch Located just a short 15 minute drive from the event site, the Falcon Beach Ranch offers three authentic log cabins nestled in the forest on a rock ridge overlooking the Ranch. Each private, chalet-style cabin features a fully equipped kitchen, bathroom, loft bedroom, and cozy lounge area with a wood-burning fireplace. Enjoy the boreal forest view from your screened deck and sundeck, which is equipped with a barbecue. A cedar log sauna and outdoor hot tub are centrally located to the cabins. ANNNND.... Did you know that the Falcon Beach Ranch is where 2-time Olympic biathlete Megan Imrie grew up??!! Pretty cool eh?
