About the host
Hosted by Keisha
Hi, we’re Ray and Keisha. We enjoy traveling, spending time with family, and exploring the outdoors. We created The Owl House to be a comfortable and welcoming place for people visiting Calgary.
We understand how important it is to have a place that feels clean, comfortable, and easy to settle into after a long day of travel, work, or exploring the city. Our goal is to provide a smooth and enjoyable stay where guests can relax and feel at home.
We’re always happy to host travelers from all over and hope you enjoy your stay at The Owl House.
Why they chose this property
We chose this neighborhood because it offers a great balance of quiet residential comfort and convenient access to Calgary’s main destinations.
The area is peaceful and family-friendly, with parks, walking paths, and local amenities nearby. It’s also very convenient for guests visiting the University of Calgary, Foothills Medical Centre, and Alberta Children’s Hospital, all just a short drive away.
Another thing we love about this location is how easy it is to get around. Downtown Calgary is close by, and the home also has quick access to the highway leading west toward Banff, Canmore, and the Rocky Mountains.
What makes this property unique
The Owl House is unique because it combines two private suites under one roof — The Owl on the main floor and The Owlet in the basement. When booked together, guests have access to the entire home with two kitchens, two living areas, and multiple bedrooms, which works well for families and groups traveling together.
This layout allows guests to enjoy time together while still having their own comfortable spaces when needed.
The home also features a fully fenced backyard for guests traveling with pets, and thoughtful touches throughout the property to help make your stay comfortable and convenient.
