**The Space**
The Owl occupies the entire main floor of the home and features large windows, plenty of natural light, and a comfortable, functional layout.
Guests enjoy:
• Fully renovated kitchen with modern appliances and everything needed to prepare meals
• Comfortable living room with a Smart TV
• Three bedrooms with quality mattresses and fresh linens
• Updated full bathroom with modern finishes
• Fast Wi-Fi for remote work and streaming
• Self check-in with a smart lock
The home has been extensively updated to provide a comfortable environment throughout the year.
**Backyard & Pets**
One of the highlights of the property is the large, fenced backyard, which provides space to relax and is especially convenient for guests travelling with children or pets.
• Fenced backyard
• Outdoor seating area
• Quiet residential neighbourhood
• Pet-friendly with advance notice
Travelling with your dog? For guests who want to spend a longer day exploring Calgary, Banff, Canmore, or the surrounding area, we may also be able to arrange an optional pet check-in service with our trusted local helper.
Depending on availability, visits can include letting your dog into the yard, refreshing water, feeding, play time, or a short walk. Pet check-in service is available for an additional fee, must be arranged in advance, and is subject to availability.
Please note that the fence is older and has a few natural gaps. Very small dogs and determined escape artists should always be supervised.
**Secure Gear & Luggage Storage**
A dedicated section of the garage may be available for guest use and is secured with a password-protected keypad lock.
The space provides a convenient place to store bikes, skis, snowboards, luggage, strollers, and other outdoor gear without bringing everything into the home.
It may also be available for luggage storage before check-in or after checkout, which can be especially helpful for early arrivals or later departures.
Because the storage area can only be reserved by one booking at a time, access is available on a first-come, first-served basis and is not guaranteed. Please message us in advance if you would like to use it.

The Owl is located in the northwest Calgary community of Bowness, with convenient access to:

As with many homes that include a lower suite, occasional normal household sound may be heard. We ask everyone to respect quiet hours so all guests can enjoy a comfortable stay.
