We had a wonderful stay, Natasha and Dave are great hosts, very welcoming and friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. The Akashka was very comfortable for our group of 5 adults, 3 teens and a dog, the kids got a lot of use out of the air hockey table. Thanks Natasha and Dave!

Great Stay

We loved out stay on Foster's place. House was clean and had great amenities, I especially loved the hot tub with the TV and sauna. Plenty of beds for a large group if they are ok with tight quarters. Overall, great home and would recommend staying here.

Fantastic Place + Location

Although the picture may make the place seem a little compact, the experience is contrary. The place is 4 floors, has a spacious living/kitchen/dining area to fit all guests. The chalet is well equipped and has all the amenities we could ask for. Amazing place, will certainly come back in the future and stay at Natasha and Dave's place.
