Widmer Wedding
This weekend my daughter (Makayla) and her fiancé (Brayden) married at Fort Steele, BC. We stayed here the night before the wedding with our family and the wedding party. The accommodations were perfect. Jo and John allowed us to host the rehearsal dinner the night before the wedding and a small gathering the morning after. The home was very clean. Everything that we needed in terms of dishes, basic kitchen sundries and cleaning supplies were provided. The view was outstanding and beds very comfortable. We highly recommend this vacation property and would love to return. Thanks for hosting us.

Fabulous
JoAnne is fantastic. Had a great time with the whole family and really enjoyed taking walks with the friendly dog Dawson.
great hosts, great view, beautiful place
From the minute we arrived the hosts were making us comfortable. very convenient location for our family celebration in Fernie and daytrips to Cranbrook and Kimberley. Lots of wildlife to see and area is so quiet and peaceful!!!
An excellent, out of the way, vacation rental for group gatherings
The accommodations were very well suited for 8 guys on an annual golf trip. Big kitchen/dining/livingroom area where everyone spent most of their time together chatting, cooking, eating, playing cards, watching TV or even napping. Plenty of other areas to gather such as the second level deck, hot tub and fire pit on the ground level which would have been used if not for the mosquitoes which happened to be out in force that week. Fully equipped kitchen which some foodies in the group appreciated - especially the blender for making a variety of drinks!
Location is 30 minutes outside of Cranbrook but ideally situated about an hour away from the northernmost and southernmost golf courses we were playing in Kimberly and Eureka, Montana. Also, as we were relatively secluded with only the owners' home nearby, there was little concern about how loud or late we could talk or play music. The owners, Joanne and John, could not have been more friendly or hospitable - making sure we understood there were no restrictions from their perspective on evening noise and offering us suggestions about the area.
Everyone felt this is certainly a vacation rental we would use again the next time we are back in the area.
Exactly what were looking for
Our group of 8 (four adults, four children) spent the May long weekend at this place. We loved the house, the location and the view.
The Takalas are fantastic hosts, and ensured we had a great weekend, On their advice we went to the nearby trout hatchery which was interesting for the kids and adults.
The weather was perfect, so we spent half a day at Norbury park about a 20 minute drive away and sat around the fit pit at night.
Dawson was more than happy to show us around the rest of the property, we enjoyed watching him chase squirrels.
Excellent!
We really enjoyed our stay at the rental. The place is super clean and very roomy. The view from the deck is amazing and the pictures do not really quite capture the beauty. The host's are very nice and are on top of their business. We would love to come back and have a feeling we will.
