Amazing!

We loved the privacy and natural surroundings. We went later in the season and still saw hummingbirds. The kids basically lived in the pool.

Paradise!

We spent 3 nights at the rental and the views are breathtaking! The owners are great with communication and easy to get ahold of. There is sooo much privacy and we loved all the little touches inside and out. Interesting and unique decorations inside and there are 2 large gardens, a pond with fish and a waterfall. We ate beets, carrots and some broccoli from the garden. We saw deer in the yard and a wild turkey. The rental is VERY well stocked with anything you may need. I’d recommend this property if you want a little trip to get away from it all and enjoy beautiful view and a great get away with all the comforts!

Private Paradise

We chose this location for relaxation but there is so much you can do. The hosts are amazing, the property is out of this world. We were comfortable, entertained, and enjoyed our stay. My son loved the fish in the pond, and the waterfall. We got to roast marshmallows and enjoy the scenery. Would love to go back and would highly recommend staying!

Hidden Gem!

This was our first trip to the Canadian Rockies, and we weren’t sure what to expect but from the moment we arrived it felt like a home, not just a rental, it was extremely well stocked! The views from the pool were amazing, it was so peaceful and quiet, we mostly sat in the pool in silence soaking in the view. So much wildlife in the area and plenty of nearby hiking. The deck it set up perfectly to catch sunrise an amazing sunset overlooking the lake and river. The place was setup with tons of outdoor activities, unfortunately we hit a bad year with mosquitoes and couldn’t fully enjoy all the outdoor activities. We absolutely loved this place and will be back 100%

From the moment we arrived, we knew we had found something special. The pool, hot tub, and gardens were absolutely incredible. Every morning we wandered through the garden picking fresh raspberries, and being able to harvest carrots and beets was memorable touch. It felt like our own little private paradise. And the views? Simply breathtaking—you never get tired of looking at them.Our young granddaughter practically lived in the pool! It was the highlight of her vacation, and watching her have so much fun made the trip even more special for all of us. And what a joy to allow the dogs to run free in the grassy area.Although the property feels wonderfully private and tucked away from the hustle and bustle, we were pleasantly surprised to find a well-stocked grocery store only about 10 minutes away. One thing that really impressed us was how thoughtfully equipped the home was. We've stayed in many vacation rentals where we've had to buy basic items like spices, coffee, sugar, ketchup, mustard, and other condiments. Not here! This home was stocked with virtually everything you could possibly need.We even experienced a major windstorm during our stay that knocked out the power throughout the area. Thankfully, the home has a backup generator which showed how well prepared the owners are.I grew up in the Kootenays and wanted a place close enough to visit family in Castlegar while still feeling like we were truly on vacation. This property was absolutely perfect. Thanks!

We were looking for a destination that was quiet and offered us some solitude. We could not have found a better location!! It was peaceful, relaxing and very welcoming. We were there just a couple of days, and it felt like we were there for a long time. The amenities and the home are very well-maintained. But I cannot describe the views.....the views are SPECTACULAR !!! Thank you to the hosts, very open and transparent throughout the process.

Paradise

It is difficult to describe the feelings we have for this property. We cannot think of anytime on any holiday we have been more relaxed and at peace. The view,the home, the pool, the hot tub, the HiFi!!! If you want to get away from it all and just chill this is definitely the place. Robyn & Glen were excellent hosts and we could not have asked for more. We will look forward to returning and seeing Shamus & Patrick O'Bear again soon.

Peaceful Getaway

This property is as good as the pictures depict. Robyn and Glen are amazing hosts. They put a lot of thought into every detail, they are extremely well organized and they a very easy to get ahold of if needed. The property itself is amazing and the area surrounding Argenta is equally amazing. If you are looking to get away from the crowds of people and chaos, this is the place for you. It is very peaceful and incredibly beautiful.

Beautiful property!

This rental was beautiful and was stocked with everything needed and more. The hosts were great to communicate with and quick to respond. You can tell the effort they have put into making this rental a beautiful vacation. The area is lovely and there is much to do both at the cabin and it's surroundings.
