A lovely heritage cottage (kept immaculately clean) steps from Kaslo’s superb walking trails and a surprising number of excellent restaurants. Charming design and layout. Cosy with a well tended garden/yard. Well stocked with lots of reference books re: local features and history. Friendly welcoming hosts. Kaslo itself is a remarkably beautiful destination for outdoor pursuits.

amazing place and the hosts, Trish and Drew were so kind and thought of everything to ensure our stay was the best it could be. We enjoyed it so much, we already booked it for NEXT year (2026)
What a fantastic place to stay! Super clean and comfortable (especially the bed!). The front porch was a cute and cozy place to have my morning coffee. The hosts are outstanding as well… Look forward to returning!
Great little place. Comfy and convenient to walking around Kaslo. Owner is very accommodating. Property very clean. Thanks for a relaxing stay in the beautiful town of Kaslo.
