  Great house, great yard, perfect weather for the week and any word I can find would not do this property justice. I grew up in the country and this just brought back such vivid memories of what a good quality of life we had growing up in the 50s. We played games in the yard and enjoyed the fire pit and the beautiful prairie sunsets which so reminded us all that there is nothing to match a prairie sky at dusk. The owners of this property have been super to deal with and the house is immaculate as is the yard itself. We simply were four friends in our fifties looking to spend quality time together catching up on life in general. We do this once a year - last year we spent at a golf course property in Lethbridge AB. Alas - this year we got it right. This was by far a superior week to that one in very respect and we were still close to some great golf courses. There is no doubt that anyone looking for some peaceful and memorable days would have no problem getting their wishes granted at Tummel House. Well done to the owners - you have a gem right here in Manitoba and we truly feel blessed to have been there for a week. We left with absolutely nothing but good things to say about it. Thanks very much for sharing it with those of us who are not so fortunate to own such a property.

  Recommended for: Sightseeing, girls getaway, families with young children, adventure seekers, age 55+.

  Owner response: Thank you Susan! Like Susan and her friends, we are constantly booking guests from across western Canada and beyond (England, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ontario). The property is very unique -- the first time you turn the corner into the yard, you know you have found something special. Our hope is that our guests consider Tummel House their home and enjoy it as much as we do. Diane and Art Owners

  We have been having this annual event for a number of years now, and the Tummel House was by far the best place we have stayed. The house itself is amazing, not to mention the large immaculate grounds, lots of room for playing frisbies and having a bon fire with out distribing other guests, as it is so private. The fishing was great, we caught well over 100 walleyes in about 18 hours of fishing, and there is a public boat launch about 5 min. away from the house. I booked it for next year the day I arrived home ......what a great find !!!

  Owner response: This response is typical of so many others that are written in our guest book at Tummel house. We have great guests who return year after year to enjoy Tummel House - with its charming character, fire pit and beautiful grounds. Fishing at Lake of the Prairies IS fantastic!! In winter, skiing is equally fun and is located close by at Asessippi Ski Hill. Hunting is also fantastic in the autumn. There are so many opportunities to explore and enjoy the area, and then return to your beautiful private home in the evenings. Tummel House is "Home Away from Home" for many people.

  Our family has had a wonderful get-together. The Tummel House is truly a treasure. Thank you so much for making it available for others to share. This is the first time we have gathered her but would love to come back again. The house feels like home. The grounds are expansive with lots of room to wander.

  Thank you for letting us come back again. We really enjoy this place, when it comes time for us to leave, we really don't want to. It is so quiet here from the city life. We also enjoy the house - lots of room.

  What a great house and property! Thank you for a unique experience. We came from Texas, British Columbia and a few other local places to attend a wedding. It was great to be able to stay with the whole family since the visit was short. Cranium and Bocce were the two big hits, but we utilized the entire place and loved it. Kids and adults were all happy to be here. Thanks.

  We are so glad that we found this gem online! Our stay was great. It is nice to get away from everything once in awhile. The kids loved the yard and having a fire each night. We'll be telling people about this place for sure.

  We had a wonderful time. Thank you for having all the games and yard toys to keep the kids busy. We stayed here with our family but we really hope to come back this winter with our friends.

  A very relaxing stay. We made the first snowmen of spring with our kids and the games cupboard was much used during the falling snow. The last morning, we were entertained by a pair of turkey vultures soaring right over top the house. The charm of this house was evident as soon as we stepped through the door. It was very welcoming and felt like "home" - windows are placed so beautifully. We had a very relaxing visit with our friends. It is evident the house has ended up with people who appreciate its significance.
