Perfect family gathering space

We enjoyed a great weekend in this cute and very spacious home. We were staying for our son's wedding near Strathmore and the home had lots of separate spaces for sleeping and getting ready for our special event. The large gathering areas were perfect for hosting our extended families as well.

Perfectly situated

We love this beautiful home! There were 4 of us in town for the Strathmore Rodeo which was only 5 minutes away. The home is very clean and lovely, and has everything we needed for cooking. Our host was wonderful and communication was great. Oops, We accidentally set off the smoke alarm so we even got to meet the local fire department and the owner. They were all very gracious for our mistake. Would definitely recommend this beautiful home!

A group of retired friends that take an annual fly fishing trip. Location was perfect and the property lent itself well to sitting back at the end of the day and sharing stories about the fish we caught and guides we used. Great kitchen and deck

First Place in Strathmore AB was the perfect place to host our combo Thanksgiving-50th bday-family reunion! Clean and beautifully decorated, there was great space outside for a variety of games, inside for meals and visiting…just a gorgeous venue for about 45 people to share food and laughs together. We will be back for sure!

We stayed with 4 families for our kids volleyball tournament. When I say we had A WONDERFUL time we sure did! The property is AMAZING, a true unique treasure. There was enough space for all of us and we loved BBQ’ing and having a fire! The host was wonderful and got back to me with any questions we had and worked with us for a slightly later check out due to how our game schedule turned out. 15/10 and we all said we would certainly stay again!!! Thank you!!

Family gathering

First Place was perfect for our needs as it has great space indoors and outdoors for everyone to gather and visit. The out of town guests really appreciated having a place to stay with all the comforts of home rather than a hotel room. The kitchen facilities are spacious and have every item needed for dishware, utensils and appliances. Bring your groceries and clothing and enjoy!
