About this property

15 minutes from Waterton, family reunions, petting farm, horse & wagon rides,

This super fun property offers so much more than just accommodation. It is a great gathering place for families, reunions and special events. The Hayloft is located on a little farm Fort Heritage & Frontier RV Park just outside Waterton Park. There is a delightful pond on the property as well with peddle boats free for your use. We operate a small campground on the property with Glamping Tents, powered RV sites and tenting sites. We also feature a Petting Farm with bunnies, kitties, Angora goats, alpaca's, piggies, horses and more. New this year we are offering our "introduction to horses" program where we give rides in our arena. Our trained staff gives kids and adults a fun opportunity to learn a little about horses and then have rides while we lead the horse. We also offer wagon rides at night with our beautiful Clydesdale horse team. A real customer favourite is our Weaving/Spinning demonstrations with hands on rug making in our Yarn Barn. We are also adding this year The Hitching Post with pop shop, grandma's baking and local arts and crafts as well as a hands on geneology ancestor corner. We love telling our ancestor stories and love for you to share yours as well. There really is a lot to do here at The Hayloft. It has a great amount of space with fully furnished kitchen, two fridges, two stoves and ovens, large dining area and sitting area, extra tables and chairs seating for 20 plus people. With seven bedrooms and 3 1/2 bathrooms, 11 full sized beds there is plenty of sleeping space too. There is a hide-a-bed for extra sleeping needs and a single bed as well. If more accommodation is needed we also have a smaller home right on the same property The Lakeside Gallery & Guest House that will sleep up to 12, and rents out for 295.00 per night for 4 persons and 30.00 per extra person if more than 4. So in reality we can sleep up to 37 if the other home is rented along with The Hayloft.

The Hayloft is 895.00 per night for up to 20 persons and 30.00 per extra person. The taxes add another 9% will be added to the cost and there is a 200.00 cleaning fee.
The upstairs floor has 3 bedrooms and two bathrooms. Master bedroom has a King and a double and an en suite bathroom with large tub and a separate shower.
Main floor bedroom has a king size bed and there is also a half bath on the main floor.
The basement has walk out doors, a sitting room, 3 bedrooms and one bathroom. The bathroom has a separate room for the toilet, and separate room for the shower so that more than one person can have access at a time. The sink and vanity are separate also with two sinks.
The main floor has a wood burning stove and plenty of seating for everyone plus a really really nice view of Chief Mountain.
There is free internet, and television for movies and dvd's, There is also plenty of parking space. This venue is perfect for family reunions and also offers near the property - The Gathering Place with cooking area, large event tents with tables and chairs and stage area. (This is a rentable venue and must be booked ahead of time. It rents for 150.00 per day) So much to see, do and ENJOY!

About the host

Hosted by Cheryl Davidsen

Host profile image
Hello, we are Eugene and Cheryl Davidsen. We built our own home and raised our lovely family here in this area. I was born and raised right here in Mountain View and am so very happy to have been able to raise my family here as well in a home we built from scratch. We love the view and the closeness to Waterton National Park. Our home is located on a ranch with barn and cattle. But we are located in such a convenient spot, right on Highway 5 and within minutes of Waterton Park. A little about our family - We raised 7 children, 5 boys and 2 girls and we now have 20 grandchildren. We have used our home for amazing family gatherings year round and have so much enjoyed having a place for everyone to come home to. It is so fun and satisfying to now be offering that to others through the VRBO site. We love to snowmobile in the winter, ATV and bike in the summer and we are all musicians. We have a family band and perform for various functions. We are also in the process of putting in a campground in our north field where we will be adding a Fort with cabins for large family reunions and retreats. Our cabins will have the names of our early settlers and ancestors here in Mountain View with their stories and pictures on the walls. We are so excited about this and feel there is a great need for large group facilities. Getting our home ready to rent out is the first step towards our goal. We want to offer a great place to bring families.

What makes this property unique

I think one of the best things about our property are the activities we offer our guests. Wagon rides, petting zoo, boating AND spinning and weaving demonstrations in our Hitching Post building. We love to show people a good time! We can even give you a horse riding experience!
