It was indeed a cozy cabin. Great for our family. Beach access is very good. With the exorbadent public parking cost. It is good to have 2 parking spots provided.
The cabin was exactly as advertised and perfect for our stay. It was quaint and cozy and had everything we needed.

The cabin, the charm and overall “feel” of the space exceeded our expectations. It was clean, organized and had everything we needed. LOVED the record player, great touch! We would stay here again in a heartbeat. Lots to do in town, we unfortunately got stuck with very cold tempatures. Otherwise a great weekend!
Very comfortable, ( including air conditioning), clean, free parking, easy access, fire pit (wood provided ), includes everything you need for the beach which was only a block away. Would strongly recommend this cozy A Frame for a wonderful family lake vacation.

The house was cute and fairly close to the beach, which we appreciated, but there were quite a few issues that impacted our stay. Basic supplies were missing, including paper towels, a broom, dishwasher pods, laundry detergent, cooking oil, and even basic seasonings. There were also several maintenance problems. The breaker tripped multiple times for no apparent reason, and because the fridge was on the same breaker, it repeatedly lost power. We didn’t realize it immediately, and some of our food spoiled. About half the outlets didn’t work, one fan was broken, the water pressure was inconsistent, the front door lock wasn’t very user-friendly, and the loft stairs felt steep and unsafe.The property also backs onto an alley and a motel. During our stay we witnessed people yelling about stabbings, apparent drug use, and intoxicated adults, which made us feel uncomfortable. I personally wouldn’t feel comfortable bringing children here or letting them play outside unsupervised.I also want to be fair to the hosts. I didn’t contact them during our stay, and I’m sure they would have tried to help. However, by the time we realized how many different issues there were, I didn’t want to spend our vacation coordinating repairs or having people coming in and out while we were trying to relax with friends. I chose to leave 3 stars because I didn’t give the hosts the opportunity to address these concerns, but I hope they’re resolved for future guests.

I am surprised to read about these concerns, as I didn't hear from you during your stay. Our local property manager is always just a message away and would have been happy to bring additional supplies or help troubleshoot anything that came up, including the electrical issue, so your vacation wasn't interrupted.
After your stay, we thoroughly checked the home and confirmed everything is working properly. We also took the opportunity to review the items you mentioned to ensure everything was in order for our next guests.
We've been fortunate to host many families over the years and are proud of our consistent 5-star reviews. I always encourage guests to reach out during their stay, as we're committed to resolving any concerns quickly so they can relax and enjoy their vacation.
Thank you again for your feedback, and we wish you all the best.
My girlfriend and I were looking for a quiet getaway close to Edmonton and this place turned out perfectly. Great location, clean, tons of character and easy check in/out. They went out of their way, offering us a late check out.
