Getaway weekend for whitewater rafting

Checked in to a clean property fully furnished according to the booking. No issues. Close enough to whitewater rafting and far enough from the city for a full getaway

What a beautiful cottage!! We were in the area visiting family and it provided us with the perfect home base during our time there. There was a lovely view of the lake from the front deck and lots of space to sit outside and enjoy it. It was very peaceful and quiet. The cottage was well equipped and there were lots of extras to make our stay more enjoyable (board games, lawn games, bbq, etc). Laura was an excellent host and very responsive to any inquiries I had. I would definitely stay here again and reccomend it to anyone heading to this area.

Winter Getaway

We rented this lovely well-equipped cottage for it’s proximity to Calabogie ski resort and we had a lovely time on our family trip. Laura was very responsive and helpful throughout the booking process and our stay to answer our questions. The cottage was exceptionally clean and well equipped with board games and a beautiful wood stove. Calabogie is about 30 minutes by car and was lovely and not too busy despite it being March Break. Great snowshoeing trails as well! The wraparound porch overlooking the lake would be an amazing place for an early morning cup of coffee or to pass the evening in warmer weather! Would highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Laura Strauss

Host profile image

Jeff and I took on this venture of building our dream cottage. We have two beautiful children and we want to make memories with them at our special place. It is a place where we go to relax, get away from the hustle and bustle of our every day lives. It is so peaceful and calming looking over Centennial Lake.

Why they chose this property

This is an area Jeff has been visiting for years. There is so much to do. You can go on the ATV trails, snowmobile trails and hiking trails. If you enjoy fishing, there are many kilometeres of water that you can spend hours on. In the winter, enjoy ice fishing, as well as cross country skiing and downhill skiing at Calobogie Peaks which is just a 30 minute drive away. It is such a beautiful spot with friendly neighbours and friendly community members.

What makes this property unique

Our property has one thing that many other properties do not have. We have a large covered porch and wrap around deck. Our guests have shared that this is their favourite spot at the cottage. Whatever the weather is, you will always have a relaxing place to sit and enjoy a cocktail or warm beverage.
