This 2 bedroom condo was perfect for our 3 night stay in Kimberly. It was well equipped and had a relaxing up to date decor. Having the Hot Tub on the deck with a spectacular view certainly helped to relax and enjoy! If you haven't been, Kimberly is a great town, friendly people, and the skiing was great too!

Property is new, clean and comes with all the necessities to keep comfortable...even a cork screw, (very important). Master bed is great and condo has ample room to relax. Area golfing is fantastic and we loved the mine tour, very well presented and are glad we made time to do it....there is such a rich history in the valley and the people are great at presenting it! Owner is wonderful to deal with and answered all our questions in a timely manor...good job. We will be back next year for sure.

I highly recommend renting this unit. It is extremely spacious, clean, luxurious and has an air of romance built in while watching the stars from your own hottub was just perfect. The pictures you see are amazing, yet the real thing is even better if you can imagine! The pictures do not do the condo justice. If you enjoy quiet walks or hikes this is your place. We will be back again for sure. Thank you Curtis

Kimberley Golf Trip

The four of us had a great time golfing 6 courses while spending one week at the Condo. We played some wonderful courses. This is the second year we stayed there. It is a great location and has all of the amenities. The large king bed and 2 single beds was ideal for four seniors. The scenery is beautiful and the hot tub is a nice touch. We hope to be back there again next year.

We found this condo by a link our daughter in law sent us. All arrangements went without a hitch, communications with the owner were done in a timely manner.The weekend was spent there with my elderly parents. Size of the condo was perfect for us, very comfortable. Nice place to stay, clean when we arrived. All in all a good experience. I would recommend this place to both family and friends.

We came here midweek to do some skiing and it was great. Very quiet. Nice and new place, well equipped and clean. The hot tub was a great feature after a day on the slopes. The condo was surprisingly big, and though it was just two of us, there was plenty of room for more. We had a great time and would recommend it to anyone!

The 4 of us stayed at Curtis's place over New Years and the place was fantastic. It was very clean and stocked with linens + towels. The hot tub on the deck was awesome after a day on the hill which was a 5min walk to the lift and resturants / pubs. We'll be back for sure this summer to go golfing.

My girlfriend and I stayed here for the sneak a peek weekend at Kimberley in December 2010. It was a great weekend. The property is fantastic, the hot tub perfect and the snow amazing. Curtis was a great host and helped with a couple small issues very quickly. You just email him and he's on it. We loved it and are planning on staying here again soon!

The condo was in a great location, the hot tub was amazing the deck was a great size and as an added bonus the BBQ and patio furniture. The condo unit had all the pots pans utensils wasn't missing a thing. The matress was very comfortable and bedding warm. I am a very hard person to please and I can't say anything bad about the place!!!

Our family spent two weeks at this condo. We were very impressed with the amenities, the location and ease with which we were able to book and enjoy our stay. The owners were very friendly and helpful and it helped to make our stay in Kimberley very relaxing and enjoyable. We highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a great place to stay in Kimberley BC.

Dogwood Drive

Guest: MC/RC (Calgary)
Date of Stay: 07/30/10 Review Submitted: 08/06/10

This unit is exactly as it is marketed -- luxury condo -- comfortable and private in the back looking out on to a naturally landscaped pond w/lots of wildlife -- very peaceful. The unit is laid out so that the sleeping areas are apart from the living areas. The deck w/hottub is private. The booking/wrap-up were easy and I would recommend this property -- we will bookmark it for next year. Kimberley is a quaint little town -- lots of amenities and good for all ages (and just under 5 hours from Calgary). Overwaitea had great pricing/selection for groceries. Bootleg Gap Golf Course was kind to my husband. We had lunch at The Green Phoenix, appies/patio drinks at the Barnhaus and shopped many of the merchants along the Common. We went White Water Rafting on the St Mary's River and it was a blast. There are walking trails and, as well, mountain biking trails. MC/RC - Calgary

Tastefully Decorated, Very Clean, Quiet

Guest: B & P (Calgary Alberta)
Date of Stay: 07/20/10 Review Submitted: 08/25/10

This is a lovely unit to stay in and one that we would comfortably recommend to others. It looks as good as the pictures depict and the king bed was wonderful. The location is really nice with the small natural reserve immediately below to look at off the back deck and the ski hill in the distance. Everyday we saw otters and ducks in the water and deer outside the unit as we enjoyed our morning coffee on the very private deck. We really liked the close proximity to the ski hill and often walked right up the road from our unit onto the many trails the ski hill offers. You can buy a good map from the visitor's centre of all the hiking in the area -- it is endless. Another huge bonus was the newly paved bike trail that runs all the way from Kimberley to Cranbrook. You can bike, walk, or rollerblade on it. We didn't golf but everyone mentioned how great the golfing is in the area. Kimberley has much to offer to any outdoor enthusiast and the town itself is very charming. Curtis was great to communicate with -- very prompt at answering any questions and always very courteous.

My husband and I live in Ontario and recently vacationed in BC and spent 8 nights at Willow Vistas Resort. We had excellent communication with the owner at all times and timely responses to any questions. We found the condo to be very clean and it had wonderful amenities. We were close to Cranbrook where we have family so it was very convenient for us. I would absolutely recommend this property to anyone seeking accommodation in the Kimberley area.

We weren't sure what to expect as we had never used a vacation rental before, but were we pleasantly surprised. The condo was neat and exceptionally clean. The hot tub was perfect and the view from the balcony was spectacular. We will definitely visit again.

Date of Stay: 06/06/10 Review Submitted: 06/28/10

The place was very comfy yet classy. Loved the view off the balcony felt away from it all in nature. I liked where it is located close to everything and had everything you needed really away from home. The courses in this area are fabulous and all within 25min away. A golfers ideal setting. I would stay there again. It would be nice to know or have a place for recycling of cans. I might have missed it. Overall a wonderful place to stay and very reasonable. Highly reccomended. Thanks again.

Enjoy the Hot Tub

Guest: Mel (Edmonton, Alberta)
Date of Stay: 04/30/10 Review Submitted: 06/29/10

We really enjoyed the space and the location. For a 2 bedroom, it is a great layout. The property is very new and well looked after. We had the privilege of playing 7 rounds of golf. I recommend Bootleg Gap as the first choice. Shadow Mountanin is quite challenging and somewhat unfair. However, we enjoyed having a barbecue and tasting some great red wine.

Spent Thanksgiving 2009 at the Condo with my girlfriend. We are both professionals living in Calgary and decided to try something other than the typical Banff trip. Having a close friend who lives just south of Kimberly, BC, I was familiar with the area. However, I did not anticipate just how scenic the panoramic view of the Rockies would be from the ski hill or the secluded forest area behind the condo where deer liked to grazed. The condo itself was immaculate, clean and new! Everything was fully furnished and we were able to enjoy ourselves barbecuing on the back porch and soaking in the hot tub before spending our nights lounging in front of the fireplace. The entire process of reserving the condo, getting access keys and making payment was completely headache free. I cannot say enough positive things about my visit and am looking forward to my next visit over the Easter weekend!

Willow Vistas was a wonderful home-base for us while we enjoyed our family getaway to Kimberley. This condo is impeccably clean, incredibly spacious, and has a wonderfully soothing decor that helped us feel right at home - away from home ! Thank you to Curtis and his family for opening up their retreat to us. We received excellent customer service from the beginning of our inquiry to the end of our stay....timely responses to all of our questions, and the ease of booking was a welcome delight. We will definitely be back - we loved Kimberley, and the surrounding area, and to have a beautiful condo to call home was a special treat for us. Thank you for everything !

Wow. What a great vacation. We really enjoyed this condo. It was very nicely located to all amenities and the town site. The hot tub and mostly tiled floors were a great touch. We didn't have to do anything, just visit and enjoy. Thank you Curtis for great communication.

Owner response:Hi Lori. We are glad you and your family enjoyed our condo and Kimberley and look forward to your return.
