Property was lovely. House was very big with enough rooms. Upstairs our voices echoed without any sound proofing. Lower level a bit weird with the open ceiling. Voices really carried between rooms. I personally did not enjoy my final night there with the rodents in the wall with their clawing and chewing ALL NIGHT long. Had to find a friend to let me bunk up with at 3:00. Thought for sure the rodents would be coming through the drywall. ##### Louise A.

We were also comfortable with the fact that the hosts were on site yet not visible to us. They were also very quick to respond to any questions or concerns that we had. Thanks for the wonderful experience we were able to enjoy. ##### Nelly E.

Between the space available for camping and all of the rooms in the house we were able to accommodate almost all of our guests overnight. The gorgeous landscape was the perfect backdrop for our outdoor wedding ceremony (so many stunning photos!) and the patio area was perfect for the dinner and dance. We are so happy we chose CVR and would highly, highly recommend it to anyone looking for an even centre or weekend get away! Jen & Bryan ##### Jennifer P. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2022 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Tamania J., Calgary 15 Jul 2023 Disliked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Review Property is nice with beautiful views. However, we did not have a good experience afterwards with communications with the management team. We felt we were treated quite unfairly and that dampened our overall experience with the property. ##### Tamania J. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maureen J. 9 Jan 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Modern mansion was a dream come true Three generations, including three married couples so all our 3 granddaughters had their own room. We were there over Christmas and it was nice to have the tree and other decorations done by our hosts. The dining room was large enough for the 9 of us (but would have seated 12). The 2 dishwashers and huge fridge with freezer were essential and there was another fridge in the basement. During our 5 night stay we used almost all the amenities - theatre room, pool table, arcade basketball, sauna and other spa features. We had one dog with us and there were many places outside of the property to walk her (and ourselves). For the price, I don't think there is another place in the province of Alberta that is this large and with this many exceptional features. ##### Maureen J. Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Evelyn B. 6 Aug 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy #### Getaway Pictures show great however, Floors were swept but filthy dirty as they turned white socks black very quickly. Portable air conditioning unit for 9000sq ft does absolutely no good. Ad says AC Ad states playground, which there is no playground at this location. Many things in the house were broken -theatre seating, only 2 out of the 4 seats reclined, complete faucet on small sink in kitchen was not attached. Shelf downstairs and pool cue rack falling off the wall This property has seen a fair bit of abuse and very little to no maintenance. ##### Evelyn B.

Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2022 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Adam D. 21 Jul 2022 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Property manger sent frivolous invoice 2 weeks after stay. The property managers sent an invoice without discussing prior and have not explained what the invoice was for. On VRBO, hosts can invoice guests and the card gets charged automatically, with merit or not. ##### Adam D.

My friends and I booked this property for a weekend getaway, and it didn't disappoint! The house was beautiful inside and outside, and it looked just like it does in the pictures! We loved all of the activities that were available within the house such as the spa room, the theatre, the games, and the fire pit! It was such a special and quiet weekend and we definitely want to come back in the future! ##### Nadia A.
