Great shower & kitchen. The pictures on the website are great, but the cabin itself is greater. The hosts, Simone & Dan, were very friendly and helpful. The animals around the ranch were spectacular, as is the setting. Highly recommended. ##### Greg C.

It was well stocked with everything needed to prepare meals and we had a very enjoyable bike ride along the gravel road that runs in front of the property. I loved the fact that the horses came to see us every morning and that the 2 mini donkeys raced us as we road by on our bikes. So funny! I highly recommend this property and the host is great as well. ##### Sherry W.

This horse ranch was a super quiet and private location, quite remote. Simone was a great host, answering all my questions right away. Even with 30+ degrees the cabin stayed pretty cool. Hal the mini donkey was our favorite :) ##### Jason G. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2022 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Cassandra W. 4 Aug 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy From the hop she wasn't great with communication(trying to book a trail ride with her ect) but she said that there was a family issue, so obviously my expectations in early days were low. Upon arrival we realized there was no house key or Door pad to ensure that our items would be secure in our place. When I asked her about it she said it's a safe area which didn't comfort me, but at that point it was late in the game on the long weekend and there was not many places to stay. There was a leak under the bathroom sink which ruined my makeup (she gave back 160.00) she never showed up to deal with it. I put a pot under the sink which filled up quickly. She left us with one roll of toilet paper, no coffee machine (kerig but no coffee pods)brought machine on last night & filters and no coffee!! We were very far from any grocery store and it would have taken nothing to provide that. There was two adults and one child when we pulled out the hideabed we realized there was no extra pillows I asked her for some pillows she said there was "already some on the bed" which was obviously left for that one bed. When I persisted she came to the door with 1/4 attitude & 2 pillows (pillows oddly matched the curtains in the cabin). The last night the power & water went out which is totally out of her control.-she could have easily messaged on the app, as we were out. I had to ask for her lighter at dusk for tea lights. Had to use washroom outside. Also no fire alarm or curtains! I have bites! ##### Cassandra W.

We stayed 4 nights while skiing at Fernie (65 km, 30-40 min drive), it was a quiet and peaceful place to stay. Dan and Simone were friendly and helpful. I had trouble making it up the icy driveway in my front wheel drive car, but after Dan plowed and sanded, there was no trouble. We loved our stay, hopefully we’ll be back next year! ##### Tom N.

Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lyndon U. 7 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### This place is great!! We loved staying here! The cabin is really great - spacious, clean, rustic feeling with all the modern things you want or need - perfect! The property is easy to find, beautiful and private. We loved the horses and especially the donkeys - they all visited with us!! What really turned out great for us was how close we were to so many great rivers, streams and lakes for fishing - and swimming when you're done fishing! Fernie is nearby so we went into there to walk around, check out the fly fishing shops and to buy anything we needed. It's a great place to spend some time - but it was even better to leave there and go back to the cabin and the rivers and lakes up there! We did most of our fishing within 15-20 minutes of the property! The hosts are really great and everything went perfectly for us! I'd recommend this place to anyone who wants some peace and quiet and to make some new donkey friends!! ##### Lyndon U.

The interior of the cabin is absolutely lovely with vaulted ceilings, original artwork, an attractive seating area, and a super comfortable bed. It was one of the prettiest places we stayed. While the heat was unrelenting, the fan provided some relief and did not detract from the beauty of the surroundings or the kind hospitality of Simone and Dan. While we came to the area to fish the Elk River, there are many other things to do beyond fishing, hiking and swimming. There are also some great restaurants in the area and absolutely stunning natural beauty. We highly recommend this property and our hosts. ##### Gillian F.

I took my girlfriend for her birthday and the whole trip was amazing. We brought our inflatable boat and spent a day boating at Norbury Lake a short 15 minute drive followed by a visit to the local Bull River Inn neighbourhood pub. We went horseback riding with the owner Simone and followed it up by cooking on our fire pit. 3 beautiful nights under the stars with a nice hot fire was like Heaven on Earth. If you’re thinking about going, stop thinking and just go; it is 100% worth it, it’s quiet, the bed is comfy, the locale and scenery are amazing, it’s clean and cozy, it has all the amenities and there’s plenty to do. What else do you need? It’s a little slice of Paradise and my girlfriend and I are so grateful to have been able to experience. Thank you Simone for the opportunity to stay here and for taking us out on your horses, we’re very excited for the next time. Cheers, Josh and Rati ##### Joshua M. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2023
