Lovely winter oasis

It’s a beautiful, cozy log cabin tucked away just outside Kimberley, BC. We have a family of 7, and the home was perfect for our needs. The living room was spacious and we enjoyed evenings in front of the fireplace. The kids loved the hot tub after days of skiing as well. The hosts communicated clearly, and we recommend this to any family looking for a fun getaway.

Great place for family getaway

We stayed for 4 nights with my parents and my sister's family. The kids loved the cabin and the surrounding area, which has disc golf, mini golf, and trails. There are lots of activities in town like the underground mining tour, rock climbing, and white water rafting. There are some great views a short walk down to the river as well. Instructions for check in and check out were very clear. Host was quick to respond and even had a gift for us when we arrived.

Wonderful Family Retreat

This beautiful cabin was a perfect meeting place for our family group. Six adults all slept comfortably. Great location for our active family of bikers, swimmers, and trail runners. We would definitely book this property again if we were to return to the Kimberley area. We truly appreciated the graciousness of the hosts.

Perfect for family vacation

Great property with everything needed for family vacation. Location is short walk to playground and river where there are natural pools for swimming. St. Mary’s Lake is 15 min away for paddle boarding adventures. Short drive into town and three golf courses in area. Hosts are very accommodating and we would stay there again.

Great Golf Getaway

Our group booked for a golf getaway on May long weekend. The cabin was beautiful and the hosts went above and beyond when we had issues with the BBQ by replacing it right away. The neighbour hood was nice and quiet, great for relaxing after a day of golf. 10/10 would recommend to anybody looking for a weekend away!

PERFECTLY DEVINE

I find it selfishly challenging to leave a review that demonstrates how much I love this place! If I tell you how wonderful it is, it’s always going to be booked!!! The host is amazing. The property is amazing, the extra little details that welcome you are phenomenal! I encourage you not to book it, because I want to keep this hidden gem to myself! HAHAHA! Seriously you cannot go wrong with booking this property and working with this host!

About the host

Hosted by Shanna Althouse

Host profile image
We are your typical modern day family. Career parents of 2 beautiful boys and 2 wonderful dogs. We live a fulfilled life and have been overjoyed to have this getaway to not only enjoy for ourselves but also offer to you.

Why they chose this property

Because you deserve to get away!!! We actually rented a VRBO property here ourselves and within 24hrs of our stay, we decided we needed our very own as this was the spot we have been searching for over the past 5 years. Kimberley contains a lot of childhood memories for me and I hope will bring even more for our children and even yours! This property offers all of the amenities of small mountain town living with the benefit of being on the edge of town, with only the sounds coming from nature itself and hopefully the ice in your glass, clanging of wine glasses, laughter of children or nothing at all if you choose to sit in doors and read a book!

What makes this property unique

Character chalet style log home with wood burning fireplace. Short walk to the river, 5 minutes from St Marys Lake (no boats) and rock climbing, steps away from excellent hiking, a few blocks from 1 of countless golf courses, 10 min to town, 15 min to the ski hill and 25 minutes to the warmest lake you can find in the country (Wasa). If you have too many people wanting to join the trip, there is also a connected campground in the neighborhood (book well in advance!)
