Chantal is super communicative and was great when we needed to extend our stay. We have stayed at a couple of her properties for work purposes and highly recommend her properties. ##### Carla P.

Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Susan 12 Sept 2025 Liked: Amenities, communication Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Property and location was good. Only problem we had was the shower head would not stay up, shower door doesn’t close properly. No instructions on how to work the tv. No night lights. No lables on the light switches. Lamp in main bedroom had to be plugged in to work and removed to turn off. On off switch. But over all the place was spotless, comfortable and the owner Chantale responded in a timely matter and well equipped. Added plus was the washer and dryer… ##### Susan Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Baker Creek By Basecamp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lake-Louise-Hotels-Baker-Creek-Mountain-Resort.h7710611.Hotel-Information) > > [Long Beach Lodge Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tofino-Hotels-Long-Beach-Lodge-Resort.h1892359.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jasper-Hotels-Fairmont-Jasper-Park-Lodge.h24928.Hotel-Information) > > [Pine Bungalows](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jasper-Hotels-Pine-Bungalows.h37405792.Hotel-Information) > > [Lake Louise Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lake-Louise-Hotels-Lake-Louise-Inn.h74992.Hotel-Information) > > [Bear Lodge - 3 Bedroom Luxurious Log Cabin, Private Hot Tub and Mountain Views](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Golden-Hotels-Bear-Lodge-3-Bedroom-Luxurious-Log-Cabin.h22621943.Hotel-Information) > > [Castle Mountain Chalets](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Castle-Junction-Hotels-Castle-Mountain-Chalets.h6508769.Hotel-Information) > > [Banff Gate Mountain Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Canmore-Hotels-Banff-Gate-Mountain-Resort.h5900828.Hotel-Information) > > [Emerald Lake Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Golden-Hotels-Emerald-Lake-Lodge.h191535.Hotel-Information) > > [Alpine Meadows Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Clearwater-Hotels-Alpine-Meadows-Resort.h12489764.Hotel-Information) > > [The Crimson Jasper](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jasper-Hotels-The-Crimson-Jasper.h28261.Hotel-Information) > > [Alt Hotel Halifax Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Halifax-Hotels-Alt-Hotel-Halifax-Airport.h6159326.Hotel-Information) > > [Jasper Inn & Suites by INNhotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jasper-Hotels-Jasper-Inn-Suites-By-Sunrise.h32667087.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Whitby by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oshawa-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Whitby.h456085.Hotel-Information) > > [Black Rock Oceanfront Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tofino-Hotels-Black-Rock-Oceanfront-Resort.h2432309.Hotel-Information) > > [Glacier House Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Revelstoke-Hotels-Glacier-House-Resort.h2832756.Hotel-Information) > > [Tonquin Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jasper-Hotels-Tonquin-Inn.h6709279.Hotel-Information) > > [Marmot Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jasper-Hotels-Marmot-Lodge.h28260.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express & Suites Chatham South by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chatham-Kent-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Suites-Chatham-South.h3920854.Hotel-Information) > > [Penticton Lakeside Resort and Conference Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Penticton-Hotels-Penticton-Lakeside-Resort-And-Conference-Centre.h17500.Hotel-Information) > > [Moberly Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Golden-Hotels-Moberly-Lodge.h11765247.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn by Hilton Sydney](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Membertou-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-By-Hilton-Sydney-Nova-Scotia.h4905064.Hotel-Information) > > [Sun Peaks Grand Hotel & Conference Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kamloops-Hotels-Sun-Peaks-Grand-Hotel-Conference-Centre.h888272.Hotel-Information) > > [Sunshine Mountain Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sunshine-Hotels-Sunshine-Mountain-Lodge.h894279.Hotel-Information) > > [Harrison Hot Springs Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chilliwack-Hotels-Harrison-Hot-Springs-Resort-And-Spa.h553971.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lake-Louise-Hotels-Fairmont-Chateau-Lake-Louise.h22503.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Pembroke by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pembroke-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Pembroke.h5598436.Hotel-Information) > > [Pyramid Lake Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jasper-Hotels-Pyramid-Lake-Resort.h487039.Hotel-Information) > > [Whistler's Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jasper-Hotels-Whistlers-Inn.h920356.Hotel-Information) > > [Forest Park Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jasper-Hotels-Sawridge-Inn-Jasper.h126160.Hotel-Information)
