We had a great time, this cabin is in the perfect spot to enjoy the beach and relax on the porch at sunset. House is so well set up and well maintained. Property owner went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and had what we needed travelling with young kids.

A great getaway with family. We stayed 4 nights and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Kitchen is well equipped and beds are fairly comfortable. Cabin is showing it's age but that did not affect our stay. Our host, Natalie, was wonderful and very accommodating.

Great space!

This was a wonderful space for our group of friends and our son, to experience the whitway on the lake. We could walk to the access point and we loved skating and skiing around the lake. The hot tub was fabulous and very clean and the house has a great layout.

Family Winter trip

First time the family has stayed in the Windemere area. We were x-country skiing, fat biking and skating. The house was great... one of the best stocked houses we have rented:). Thanks, Natalie! Dog friendly and the woodburning fireplace was a lovely addition! We also enjoyed the hot tub and the view was great from the house.

Fabulous

We had such a wonderful time. Natalie was great to deal with, we loved the property and how close it was to anything we could have needed. 15 minutes to either radium hot springs or Fairmont hot springs. Beautiful view from huge deck. 2 minute walk to beach. Tons of beach chairs and beach items for the kids to play with. Cannot wait to come back!

Idyllic spot

We visited Windermere to celebrate my husband’s 70th birthday. There were six of us ranging from 9 to, well, 70! All six of us were delighted with the house. There was plenty of space and light and something for everyone. Late nights in the hot tub were ideal for stargazing. The house was so well equipped that we didn’t have to run out to pick up anything. Natalie was a pleasure to deal with and answered all my questions with patience and charm. In short, all of us thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thanks Natalie!

Extremely well-stocked property with everything we needed for a great week. The A/C did struggle somewhat in the sweltering heat, but we were still comfortable. We really enjoyed the deck which had ample seating. Everyone in our party was quite satisfied with the accommodations.

Can’t wait to come back next year!

Exactly as advertised! We were a group of 6 ‘mature’ ladies that stayed for 4 nights for our annual girls trip. Enjoyed sitting on the deck with the fire table enjoying the view every night as well as soaking in the hot tub. Beds were comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked. Beach was very close and we used the paddle board and beach chairs. Anything you need for the beach for all ages is provided. Natalie responded to our questions quickly. We didn’t want to leave and will definitely go back.

Beautiful spot on the lake

We stayed at Natalie's for a family ski trip with 4 adults and 4 teens. We were about 30 min from panorama. The view of the lake was beautiful! The kitchen was well equipped with dishes for cooking, even a slow cooker. Thank you for hosting us for our ski trip.

Great Family Vacation

We had a great time at the "Lake House" as our kids referred to it! The house was very clean (including the hot tub), which I was impressed with. Everything we needed was there including beach toys and a wagon to take to the beach. The beach is only a short walk away, which was convenient for coming back for lunch. Our kids loved the bunk beds, hot tub, and outdoor kids table. It was a great property for a family vacation! Thanks for your hospitality Natalie!

Would definitely stay there again

Overall, a wonderful experience. Natalie was great to deal with, and the check-in process was easy. The property was clean and the kitchen contained everything we needed. With 4 bedrooms, the house has lots of room for families, and we were very happy to be able to bring our dog with us. Outdoors, we loved the large deck with view of the lake, as well as the hot tub and fire pit. After a day of skiing/hiking/golf, it's great to hang out in the living room by the fireplace and relax and play games.

Wonderful getaway!

Natalie was excellent to deal with, and the place was even better than we expected! Immaculate and appointed with everything we could have needed. Location was ideal- a quick stroll to the water, and a lovely balcony to relax and enjoy the fire table on. Hot tub was a delight to enjoy after a ski, bedding was comfortable, rooms were dark and quiet- what more could you ask for?!?
