10/10 Excellent
"The only thing more spectacular than this property was the responsiveness of the host. Throughout our wonderful experience our host was caring without being intrusive. The only time we met was at our request to deal with a small problem that required him to visit and even then he politely requested our consent for him to visit.All enquiries were answered within a few minutes.The property was exceptional in every way. We travelled from Calgary to be there and reconnect with family.It was a perfect venue for rain or shine.On one day we hosted 4 generations of our family for a small reunion which included our 101 year old matriarch who loved it!The experience and the treatment by the host inspired us to leave it as clean as we could and was the topic of discussion numerous times during the long drive home to Calgary."

"The bathroom was very clean and clearly had been recently renovated. Bed was good. There was a microwave and mini fridge. The room was a decent size and had a small table and 2 comfy chairs. There were chairs outside the room. The room had an air conditioner which we did not need. There were 3 sets of windows which provided a nice breeze. The bathroom soap was very tiny so bring your own. Also the bedspread was pretty outdated but clean. I would stay there again."
