70th Birthday

This lodge was the perfect setting for our family. So peaceful sitting on the porch drinking coffee. Plenty of room and very comfortable. We would visit here again.

Loved this house! It was quiet, peaceful and exactly as described. The creek is just down the driveway, and if you follow the set of stairs, it leads to a dreamy little spot to relax and let the dogs play.We had a situation come up that required us to stay an extra day, and Christina was incredibly responsive and helped us get everything squared away quickly. The master bed was really comfortable, and we loved having the extra space upstairs and downstairs with activities, especially since it rained a lot while we were there.We also made great use of the outdoor pizza oven for a couple of meals since it was in a covered space. One of our favorite parts was sitting on the porch and hearing the creek. The fishing pond was a nice bonus with a few tiny fish for our son to catch. All in all, it was a great stay, and we were sad to leave!

Great Mountain Escape!

Fantastic place, tucked away but still easily accessible. Host is very detailed, helpful, responsive and easy to talk to! Clean, open and spacious. We went for a little family get away, it happened to rain that weekend, and there was plenty to do in the house, the covered porches are amazing. I would highly recommend and hope to stay there again!

Winter Break Ski Trip

We had the most enjoyable stay at Christina’s property. We came in town to ski at Hatley Pointe with another family. The house was only 13 minutes from the resort and an easy drive. The house was very clean and beautifully decorated. The upstairs was perfect for our 4 young girls to hang out. This property had so much extra, which is a great bonus when traveling in the mountains. We will definitely stay again when we visit!

Graduation party

We had a great time celebrating our son’s graduation from high school with our family and friends over the weekend. This place had tons of room, lots of entertainment for our nieces and friends, a big kitchen and open layout for everyone to visit, and lots of seating inside and outside on the wrap around porch! There was enough parking for 6-7 cars at the top of the driveway & a covered carport which came in handy when we packed up to leave in the rain. Christine is a great host and even decorated the dining area with some graduation decor and snacks to get our weekend started! We’ll definitely recommend to our friends and hope to stay there again soon!

Great stay with a catch

Great location and house amenities. Everyone enjoyed the foosball and pinball games. We had a great time in the hot tub. The catch was the steep loose gravel road to the house and our two wheel drive wouldn’t drive up (kept spinning wheel). We had to park the car at the bottom of the drive up to the house everyday. It was really difficult to carry luggage and also, during the night hours without any lights. We suggest that host provide this info to the guests to ensure to avoid any surprises if anyone arrives late nights. It would have been an excellent stay if we didn’t have this one issue.

We had an amazing time at the Laurel Creek Lodge. Everything was clean & welcoming at the property. Communication with the owners was clear from the booking through the check out. The property is beautiful, both inside & out. It's a peaceful location with very little noise (except the cows!) and it was a great place to relax & reconnect with friends who we don't see very often. All of the rooms are well-appointed and comfortable. The kitchen is stocked with enough dishes & cookware to make whatever meals you choose. The outdoor decks are lovely and provide plenty of space for everyone to spread out & enjoy the sound of the creek running across the front of the property. I would 100% recommend renting this home. On a side note, I also give the owners a 5-star rating. We had a little "incident" when checking out that involved our rental SUV getting stuck in the driveway. They happened to be in town at the time & came to our rescue and had us on our way before the tow truck had even thought about getting to us. Very kind & caring (and resourceful!) people. The property was top rated in my opinion anyway, but having owners that care about their renters puts it over the top!!
