What a beautiful cottage! Although a bit far from everything else, it is perfect for a weekend getaway if you want some quiet time. The campfire by the lake was our favourite part of the stay, and we would happily stay again in the future!

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication
The location is very good. The serene lake view from the house was very unexpected but enjoyable. We enjoyed the patio setup and had quiet morning tea. It’s the most well-stocked place I have ever stayed in. They provided everything. It was very considerate of the host as the nearest grocery was 30 min away. We loved the spacious kitchen, nice big dining and comfy living space. One concern is the size of the second bedroom. You can’t really call it a room cause the bunk-bed took the entire space. For a claustrophobic like me, it was not a good experience. Also I guess the bugs were quite a nuisance though I guess we should have expected them the place being so near a lake. I would definitely stay there again and recommend to my friends.

Nice spot!

The check-in process was so easy. The place was clean and had all the amenities. The bed was comfortable. The area is so quiet and peaceful. We were able to have a fire each night. It was nice to watch the birds on the water and see so many stars at night.

Awesome hide away

We were very pleasantly surprised at the location, very scenic and serene. The cabin was the most comfortable VRBO we've rented in a longtime very clean along with very comfortable beds. Everything was supplied, the only issue was we could only be there for 3 days. We definitely will try to rent this cabin the next time we're in southern Alberta. Thank you for the awesome stay.

The cabin itself was amazing. Lots of amenities and nice big kitchen and sitting area. The deck was very big and had large table with a propane barbecue. Sleeping was a bit of a challenge with adults and no children, but we found beds for everyone. The bunk bed room is extremely small. Not a lot to do tight around cabin. So did need to drive yo sights like Waterton. All in all a great place to stay.

Perfect little get-a-way

Such a lovely little house in an unexpected place. We had absolutely everything we needed for a most cozy and comfortable stay. We loved our mornings spent doing yoga by the water(rocky but manageable) with the sound of the wildlife waking up around the pond.Waterton Park is a nice, maybe 20 minute drive and the provided park pass was a nice, convenient touch. We will definitely book here again when we go back in the fall for some Crypt Lake hiking.Thank you for being such gracious hosts!

Hidden Gen

The pictures do not do this cabin justice. The interior is larger than it appears, and it is quite cozy, with everytging needed for a short getaway location. Centered perfectly between Cardston, Waterton, and Pincher Creek for short day trips. The hosts were also generous to include a Park Pass for Waterton Lakes National Park. I would love to book this cabin again next year . Everytging js

We have this on repeat

This is our second stay here and it was as good as our first. We will likely book here again. Stacey is an excellent host of her charming, well stocked, and CLEAN cabin! We just love the Waterton area- there are so many places to explore. We bring our bikes and our kayaks. Unfortunately we learned that Waterton National Park no longer enables watercraft from outside the Park but we ended up using our boats on the Waterton Reservoir nearby (less than 10 minutes from the cabin). While we were not surrounded by mountains like we would have been in the Park- this was still a beautiful spot to use our kayaks. We also took up Stacey's recommendation to make a reservation at the near by Twin Butte Country General Store and Mexican Restaurant. HA! That was a trip in itself if the name isn't already giving that away. Be sure to check it out. Thanks again Stacey- we will likely be booking again next year and look forward to more new things that we can explore while we enjoy your hospitality!
