About the host

Hosted by Debbie Pownall

Host profile image
We live on 40 acres of land. The cottage is on several acres backing onto the Kettle River. It was the family home while growing up in this area. In 2015 we started to renovate and make some changes. We decided to try vacation renting and have enjoyed hosting people from all over the world!
We have a small farm with cattle, hay vegetable garden and a few chickens, a couple of cats, Yorkie and lots of visiting wildlife.

Why they chose this property

We built our home on the neighbouring ten acres. This farm was in the family since the 1940's. Being right on the river has been wonderful for birds, beaver, river otters, eagles, deer, elk and moose. The coyotes can set up quite a howl on some nights. We never know which critter will be visiting but it is always interesting.

What makes this property unique

This is such a pretty area with clean air, drinkable water from the tap, no chemicals or pesticides, river frontage, just good clean living.
