How to Book an ACC Hut

Members and non-members can book ACC huts through the member portal. Booking windows differ by hut type — and BC provincial park huts are open to everyone equally.

Most ACC huts are booked through the member portal. Members get earlier access and discounted rates. The major exception is BC provincial park huts, where members and non-members have the same booking privileges.

How to book online

  1. Sign in to the member portal at app.alpineclubofcanada.ca
  2. From the left-hand menu, choose Hut Bookings
  3. Select your hut, dates, and number of guests
  4. Provide details for each guest; full name and email address attached to the guest's membership
  5. Pay in full to confirm the booking

Member rates and the member booking window only apply when you're signed in.

Pre-arrival email

A pre-arrival email with important information about the hut will be sent 7 days prior to the trip, including the hut code (when applicable). If you haven't received this email, call before travelling to the hut. Office hours: Monday to Friday 9-5 MT, closed on weekends and holidays.

Booking windows

  • Most ACC huts: Members can book up to 180 days in advance. Non-members can book up to 90 days in advance. Members cannot book non-member guests beyond the 90-day window.
  • BC provincial park huts (Kokanee Glacier Cabin, Bugaboo Hut, Silver Spray Cabin, Woodbury Cabin, Elk Lakes Cabin, Robson Pass Hut): Members and non-members can book up to 180 days in advance. Rates are identical for everyone — no ACC membership required.

Booking less than 7 days out

For last-minute bookings within 7 days of your stay, the online system isn't available. Call the reservations team at (403) 678-3200 or email info@alpineclubofcanada.ca. The pre-arrival email will be sent automatically at the time of booking when the reservation is made less than 7 days out.

Section huts

Section-operated huts (such as Wally Joyce (Bon Echo) Hut, Keene Farm Hut, Jim Haberl Hut, Tantalus Hut, Hišimy̓awiƛ, and Wendy Thompson Hut) are not booked through the central ACC portal. Visit the relevant section's website for booking information.

Kees and Claire Memorial Hut (Spearhead Huts Society)

The Kees and Claire Memorial Hut is booked directly through the Spearhead Huts Society — not through the ACC portal. ACC Vancouver and ACC Whistler members get a 90-day booking window through that system.

Lake O'Hara (Elizabeth Parker) Hut summer booking allocation

Because of the popularity of the Lake O'Hara area, the hut runs on a booking allocation process for summer bookings. Members can purchase up to two applications each; non-members are limited to one. Watch the ACC website and member communications for the annual booking allocation dates.

Checking availability

To see availability without signing in, visit the Backcountry Huts page and use the Availability tool below the map.
