Canada Paradise

We loved the seclusion & beauty. Ghost river & mountain views. Everything well stocked. Screened in porches with tables, chairs, gas grill, & fire pit. The only downside for 2 of us in our mid 70's was the number of steps in & out of the home.

Waiporous Village Get Away

Property was in a beautiful location off of Ghost River. It was a great property for getting away with family and still being in driving distance of Banff, Canmore, and Banff National Park. It was quiet and secluded in a rural area. We saw deer daily as we were out and about.

Breath of fresh air

We held a surprise 50th birthday celebration for a weekend. This place was perfect for us. It is uniquely spacious and beautiful. We loved the screened outdoor living spaces (was necessary as it rained for 2 days straight), loved the fire pit area and path to the look out point near the river. So incredibly beautiful and serene. The home is very clean and had everything we needed - even for a larger gathering / BBQ. The host was quick to reply to all my questions leading up to our stay there. We will be back to stay here in the future.

Bad experience

The place was so far away but the shower was accidentally broken by my friends daughter. Which resulted in several deep cuts all over her body. The owner even questioned us of being drunk. The owner did not even ask us if we had gone to the hospital all he was concerned about was the broken glass. And the shower handle was already detached when we arrived.
