S&T Properties is a full-service vacation rental manager built for the Bow Valley. Owning a short-term rental in a mountain town sounds simple until you are fielding a guest call on a powder morning, chasing a cleaner who didn’t show, and trying to guess whether your nightly rate is leaving money on the table. We take all of it — the marketing, the guests, the cleaning, the upkeep, and the reporting — and run it under one accountable local team. You hold the asset. We hold the standard. Tap any service below to see exactly what that looks like when your home is in our care.
Your Canmore home is marketed across Airbnb, VRBO, Booking.com, and our direct-booking site, with photography, copy, and a pricing strategy built specifically for Bow Valley demand. We adjust nightly rates daily against ski-season peaks, summer hiking traffic, long-weekend surges from Calgary, and the quiet shoulder weeks — capturing the high nights without leaving the calendar dark. Owners see every reservation, payout, and rate change in a transparent monthly statement.
From the first inquiry to the final review, guests deal with a real local team, not an overseas call centre. We handle screening, check-in, mid-stay questions, and the inevitable 11 p.m. “how does the hot tub work” message. A guest who is looked after leaves five stars, books again, and tells their friends — which is the quiet engine behind a property that out-earns its neighbours year after year.
Hotel-grade turnovers run by tenured Canmore cleaning leads, with hospital-cornered linens, restocked consumables, and a documented checklist photographed after every clean. Mountain properties take abuse — ski boots, mud season, hot-tub traffic — so our turnover standard is built for it, not for a downtown condo. Commercial laundry is handled in-house, which means we control quality and never lose a turn to an outside vendor.
We treat your asset like an asset. Routine inspections catch the small things — a failing seal, a furnace filter, a deck board working loose — before they become the expensive things. For winter, that means proactive freeze protection, snow and ice management, and a trusted bench of Canmore trades on call. You get a single point of contact and a clear record of everything done to the home.
Curated mountain-modern interiors that photograph beautifully and command higher nightly rates. We advise on layout, furnishings, and the small details — a well-stocked kitchen, good mattresses, a reading nook with a view of the Three Sisters — that turn a nice rental into the one guests book first and remember after. Staging and styling are available for new listings or tired ones ready for a refresh.
Transparent monthly statements, real-time booking visibility, and year-end summaries your accountant will actually thank you for. We also help Canmore owners navigate the town’s Tourist Home requirements and business licensing, keeping your operation onside so you can focus on the return rather than the paperwork.
From Three Sisters and Spring Creek to Silvertip, Harvie Heights, and Dead Man’s Flats, we manage properties in every pocket of Canmore and the surrounding valley. Wherever your home sits, we know the street, the guests it attracts, and what it should be earning — and we tune its marketing and pricing to that specific corner of the mountains.
And we do nearly all of it ourselves. S&T is a vertically integrated operation — our own cleaning leads, our own commercial laundry, our own maintenance bench, our own design team. Nothing gets handed off to a rotating cast of subcontractors, so we control the quality, never lose a turnover to a no-show vendor, and keep more of every dollar working for your property instead of a middleman.
Every service above is included as standard — there is no à la carte menu and no surprise line items. One team, one number to call, one monthly statement that tells you everything.
Two transparent paths to working with us — both backed by a decade of operations and a single, accountable team. We will recommend the structure that best matches your investment goals.
Aligned incentives, shared rewards. We earn a percentage of nightly revenue, so we are motivated to maximize your property’s performance — season after season.
A guaranteed monthly payment for owners who value certainty above all. We assume the operational risk; you receive a steady, dependable return — regardless of seasonality.
We Only Charge On What You Earn. Fixed Rate options available in specific circumstances. Schedule a call with our owner-relations team.
A short-term rental is only as good as the market it sits in. Canmore is one of the strongest in Western Canada — and it earns that reputation in four seasons, not one.
Banff National Park caps who can own and rent inside its boundaries. Canmore sits 20 minutes outside the gate with the same mountains and none of the residency restrictions — so it absorbs the overflow of millions of annual park visitors who still need somewhere to stay.
Hemmed in by the valley walls and provincial parkland, Canmore can only build so much. Limited developable land plus strict design controls means existing short-term rental inventory stays scarce — and scarcity supports both nightly rates and long-term appreciation.
Calgary International is an easy hour east on the Trans-Canada. Effortless access for guests means more bookings, shorter gaps, and a market that draws both quick Alberta getaways and longer international stays.
Real-shaped stories of Canmore homes we manage. Numbers are illustrative of typical outcomes and vary by property, season, and starting point.
The owners had been running the chalet themselves on a single platform with flat, year-round pricing. Bookings were fine in July and dead by November. We rebuilt the listing with professional photography, expanded it to four channels, and switched to demand-based nightly rates tuned to ski season and long weekends. A light styling refresh lifted the perceived value without a major spend.
A first-time STR owner closed on a Spring Creek condo in October and wanted it earning by the holidays. We handled furnishing recommendations, photography, listing setup, and Tourist Home licensing guidance, and had the unit live within two weeks. Dynamic pricing captured the Christmas and Family Day peaks at full rate.
An out-of-province owner was drowning in cleaner no-shows and late-night guest calls. We took over operations end to end — in-house housekeeping, 24/7 guest line, and proactive winter maintenance. The owner now receives one statement a month and hasn’t fielded a guest message since.
Yes. Canmore regulates short-term rentals through its Tourist Home land-use designation and a business licence, and the rules depend on where your property sits. We guide owners through eligibility and licensing as part of onboarding so your rental operates onside from day one — though final approvals always rest with the Town of Canmore.
It depends on location, size, quality, and how actively the calendar is priced. Rather than guess, we’ll prepare a free, property-specific revenue estimate based on comparable homes we already manage in your neighbourhood. Use the form at the bottom of this page to request one.
We offer two structures: a performance-based percentage of nightly revenue, or a fixed monthly payment where we take on the operational risk. Both are full-service with no hidden add-ons. We’ll recommend whichever fits your goals after we understand the property.
Absolutely. It’s your home. You can block out personal dates anytime through your owner portal, and many of our owners reserve ski weeks and summer stays for themselves and family.
Yes — all of it, in-house. Hotel-grade turnovers, commercial laundry, restocking, routine inspections, and a vetted bench of local Canmore trades for anything that needs a repair. You get one point of contact and a clear record of everything done to the home.
Mountain operations are our specialty. That means proactive freeze protection, snow and ice clearing, hot-tub servicing, and turnover scheduling built around heavy ski-season check-ins. Winter is your highest-earning season; we make sure the property is ready for it.
For a furnished, ready property we can typically have professional photos taken and the listing live across channels within about two weeks. New purchases that need furnishing take a little longer, and we’ll help you get there.
Discover your property’s earning potential. We’ll analyze your home’s size, location, and amenities and reach out with a personalized revenue projection — usually within one business day.
