Check in was extremely easy, directions were easy to follow. Cabin was so peaceful with all the amenities you could need. Loved having our morning coffee and breakfast on the patio and our daily visits with Chico the dog and fluffy kitty. Would definitely recommend.

The title is accurate. “Cozy, private ranch cabin.” We loved our stay! This was a far superior option to staying somewhere else like a hotel or lodge. The property is beautiful and the owners are super nice. The kitchen is well equipped, the bathroom was very spacious and the bed was very comfortable. The sunsets were beautiful and the mountains are an incredible backdrop. I hope to be back for my next BC fishing trip. 5/5!

Skiing at Fernie

Cozy and beautiful cabin on a rural property near Bull river. We stayed 4 nights while skiing at Fernie (65 km, 30-40 min drive), it was a quiet and peaceful place to stay. Dan and Simone were friendly and helpful. I had trouble making it up the icy driveway in my front wheel drive car, but after Dan plowed and sanded, there was no trouble. We loved our stay, hopefully we’ll be back next year!

Cute Cabin, Beautiful Scenery

Very cute, clean, and functional cabin with beautiful scenery to take in while lounging on the back patio by the wood fire stove. Nearby river and trout hatchery with a tourist centre are nice to visit. Cranbrook is just down the highway if you need anything as well. Very friendly hosts and horses on site if that interests you. We had a very lovely stay!

Wonderful little spot

The cabin is very comfortable, roomy, well laid out and equipped. Great shower & kitchen. The pictures on the website are great, but the cabin itself is greater. The hosts, Simone & Dan, were very friendly and helpful. The animals around the ranch were spectacular, as is the setting. Highly recommended.

Beautiful cottage in the mountains

We stayed for three nights on this lovely property abutting the Kootenay River, surrounded by horses, donkeys, elks, and the great outdoors. The interior of the cabin is absolutely lovely with vaulted ceilings, original artwork, an attractive seating area, and a super comfortable bed. It was one of the prettiest places we stayed. While the heat was unrelenting, the fan provided some relief and did not detract from the beauty of the surroundings or the kind hospitality of Simone and Dan. While we came to the area to fish the Elk River, there are many other things to do beyond fishing, hiking and swimming. There are also some great restaurants in the area and absolutely stunning natural beauty. We highly recommend this property and our hosts.

Peaceful Spot Nestled in the Mountains

We thoroughly enjoyed our time in this lovely cabin. It was well stocked with everything needed to prepare meals and we had a very enjoyable bike ride along the gravel road that runs in front of the property. I loved the fact that the horses came to see us every morning and that the 2 mini donkeys raced us as we road by on our bikes. So funny! I highly recommend this property and the host is great as well.

Great find!

This horse ranch was a super quiet and private location, quite remote. Simone was a great host, answering all my questions right away. Even with 30+ degrees the cabin stayed pretty cool. Hal the mini donkey was our favorite :)
