The property was kept in very good condition. The house is beautiful and was very welcoming. Check-in was very easy with instructions that were provided by the host. The kitchen had everything we could think of. Only suggestion would be to have candles for the deck to help with the hornets at flies.

This holiday retreat is truly exceptional, showcasing the owners' commitment to creating a luxurious cabin experience. The thoughtful details and exquisite finishing touches contribute to its unique charm, making it a standout destination. The beds offer remarkable comfort, while the inviting deck and outdoor spaces provided the perfect setting for our evening relaxation. The addition of a hot tub was a delightful bonus, especially after a day of biking or hiking. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you might need during your stay.Nestled near Elk Island National Park, the location is ideal for a tranquil escape, equipped with all the essentials for a memorable getaway. The owners were incredibly accommodating, promptly addressing all our inquiries before and during our stay, including even the most specific questions about the area. The checkin process was extremely straightforward and all details provided well in advance of our arrival. I wholeheartedly recommend this cabin to family and friends and look forward to returning in the near future.

A beautiful retreat!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful and well appointed home. We had our adult children with us and it was very spacious and the property allowed for many areas to all relax and visit together. The host was great with communications and the property was just as lovely as it appeared on the website. A delightful stay overall!

Beautiful, relaxing cabin with a wonderful view of the lights

We stayed at the cabin for 2 days and wished we could stay longer! It was absolutely perfect and had everything we needed for a perfect, relaxing end to our week in Alberta. We also had a lovely view of the Northern Lights!! I could even see them from the well positioned beds. I would stay here again in a second, only I'll stay longer next time

Average home

The home is beautiful aside from it being poorly insulated, which made for a very cold stay. The fireplace did warm the upstairs, but the downstairs was extremely cold.
