We were in Red Deer to attend a Celebration of Life for a family member. Brian and Connie’s place was the perfect place to be. It allowed 7 of us to stay together without feeling like we were on top of each other. The grounds were beautiful and allowed us some serenity. Brian and Connie were very attentive and made us feel very welcome. The layout of the home is very conducive to a large group. I would recommend it highly!

Thanks so much for your five star review. It was great to have you. Thanks for leaving the place in good condition. It is sad that the water gave off a smell for you, we spent $8000 on a new water system. I will contact them to see what the problem is maybe a slight adjustment because that is not a normal problem. It has been working really good.

Great stay

It was great to be able to find a place where several of us from work could gather to do some focused work and have some really good connection. It was quiet, away from the hustle and bustle and the homeowners were so accommodating and kind. The suite was as advertised, quick drive to all amenities and didn’t have to look out at other houses. Acreage environment and city amenities.

I recently stayed at this property with my mom and sisters, and we absolutely loved it! The place was cute, clean, and incredibly spacious—perfect for a comfortable and relaxing stay. It's ideally located just on the edge of the city, offering easy access to everything without the noise and chaos of downtown.The hosts were amazing—their instructions were clear, and they communicated promptly, making the whole experience seamless.

We had a great weekend at this property - it's exactly what we were looking for. Clean, easy to access and great communication from hosts. It was the perfect size for our group - 2 adult couples and 3 young kids, and the kids loved it.

The lower level was huge for us! Family of 4 with tons of space. Wifi was suitable, free satellite and access to things like Netflix with your account. Huge area in the backyard for activities and my kids loved picking rasberries and cooking Smores. They have a BBQ outbaack to grill. This will be my go-to for Red Deer vacations!

About the host

Hosted by Brian Thomson

Host profile image
I am a pastor for 47 years and happily married for 47 years.
We have 4 married adult children and 14 adorable grandchildren.

We have lived on our acreage for over 30 years. Our children have grown up and have families on their own, so we converted the entire 1600 sqft - 4 bedroom - walk out lower floor of our house for nightly rental. Totally separate with a private entrance.
It can be rented as a
1 Bedroom
or a 2 Bedroom
or a 3 Bedroom, even a 4 bedroom if you have a large family.

We also love camping and when we are not using our RV Camper, we are listing it on VRBO for a Outdoor camping experience.

What option would you like to book?

Why they chose this property

We love being so close to town, but on a quiet acreage. Three minutes from Gasoline alley with Costco, many restaurants etc. And 3 minutes from the city of Red Deer. Large acreage, beautiful trees and grass.

What makes this property unique

Away from the city is wonderful. But close enough to the action.

There is a train track about 1200 feet away. We are used to the whistle, but it can be a bit loud especially in the summer with windows open.
