Amazing property!

We really enjoyed our stay. Such a wonderful place to relax! Greg & Shelley were so welcoming. Facilities were great, it was well equipped, & we loved the outside space. So many different places to sit & enjoy the wildlife, with the river flowing past. We cooked all our meals on the BBQ, and swam in the river. Golden Ears park is nearby, with plenty of hiking trails. We hope we will be able to return one day! We hope we’ll return one day!

Exceeded Expectations!

Our stay in the Glamping Suite was for 3 nights after disembarking a cruise in Vancouver. We were blown away the minute we walked around the area. The privacy of the private decking and BBQ area as well as having access to the further seating area across the river was more than expected. Being inside the suite is also private and gives you a beautiful feel of living in a cabin in outback Canada. You can make an open fire, have a BBQ and enjoy dipping in the water too. We used the hot tub as well which is a perfect size for two people. The surroundings make it feel so tranquil and relaxing after spending the day hiking in Golden Ears Park. The Glamping Suite is right at the start of the park and you can walk directly to the entrance and to the paths. Greg and Shelley greeted us when we arrived and then after that were very easily contactable on messages, their response was immediate. They allow complete privacy and we never noticed them even though they are living just next-door. There was plenty of advice on where to walk, where to access groceries and local places to grab food and drink which was so helpful. I recommend a car if staying here which we had but the drive from Vancouver City is 50 minutes and beautiful scenery along the way. We found this was the perfect location for us but we didn't plan to spend any evenings in the main city of Vancouver. We only wish we could have stayed longer but we plan to be back!

Great little getaway.

We had a great time at the property. Super quiet, hot tub was awesome, and having a fire by the river was idyllic. My wife and I had a great little romantic getaway. Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic spot!

The space was secluded and cozy. The hot tub was clean and warm, amenities were accurate to the listing, and the location was fantastic. We had a great time at Golden Ears nearby and enjoyed excellent food in Maple Ridge proper just 15 minutes away. If you stay here, we’d recommend Sabina’s deli for sandwiches and Gratia for breakfast/coffee.

Cozy and romantic

The moment we pulled up we knew it would be such an amazing stay, from the beautiful branches grown over the stairway to the suite itself everything felt like the getaway you dream about. Large beautiful stone shower, a 2 person hottub right outside the sliding door so no need to stay cold while you make it inside and then patios galore all over the property so you can bbq or just go hang out by the river to take a cool dip of you go in the summer, either way summer or winter seems like an amazing stay

Amazing time

We had a great time. The 2 person jacuzzi was very relaxing, the bed was comfortable, the shower was hot, and the place was clean. During the day or in the morning the path they made takes you to the river. It's a great view, very relaxing. Definitely worth the stay.

Perfect stay vacation or wilderness getaway

This place was impressive, and would have been more amazing, had it been warmer out. Food prep indoors was a little difficult due to lack of counter space. We were not provided check-in information, and the cell phone number was incorrect, and not responded to in a timely manner. A few updates could be made.

AMAZING overnight stay!

The property is absolutely stunning wilderness done with BEAUTIFUL details! The pictures doesn't show the true beauty of this litlle escape. Extremely clean and well maintained by friendly present but invisible management. Which was so appreciated. We spent 1 night for my husband's birthday and it was truly relaxing. Definitely not long enoughbut we will fix that next time! We will definitely be back and recommending to our friends and family and ANYONE who wants a beautiful stay.

Cozy cabin

The cabin was nice. The owner was okay at communication. Nothing really stuck out good or bad. You can hear the owner walking around as they are living above you. It seemed more secluded on the listing than it actually was. It was good but nothing special

Perfect

We were hoping for quiet, in nature and near water and that’s what we got. The property is as pretty in person and it is in the pictures lots of privacy. The room is very nice, full bathroom, comfy bed. The hosts are wonderful, gave great directions, loads of suggestions for things to do. Always willing to do more. I hope we get the chance to stay here again!

Best anniversary

Had the most amazing anniversary hosted by Greg and Shelly on their beautiful property. If you’re a lover for nature, you should check out this cool place. Close to the river and all, you could gear the water flowing all night rocking you to sleep. Swimming by the clearest pond while having a bonfire and enjoying some treats. Couldn’t even believe this wonderful place is not so far away from the busy city. It was very private and yet the most amazing experience. Words can’t describe how amazing this place was, you just have to check it out yourself.

A great nature sanctuary

Greg and his wife were great hosts and provided such prompt information before our stay and gave us a warm welcome, then all the privacy from there on in. I would highly recommend staying here as the feeling is so comforting and relaxing. Everything we needed was provided for us. Greg, was so thoughtful to attend to the hot tub before we arrived to make sure it was fully operational. It was just a little on the hot side and we weren't sure how to turn it down, so that may be a question to ask beforehand. Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better stay. It's a beautiful property!

Golden Ears Glamping

A beautiful setting! We could not have asked for a more picturesque view. Our only regret is that we did not have as much time to spend there due to other commitments in the area. Greg & Shelley were super nice and just an email away if we needed something. We cannot wait to return and spend time on the various relaxation decks and hiking trails.

We loved our stay at Greg's and Shelley's little magical retreat was absolutely amazing. :-) They went above and beyond and the place was cozy, clean and comfy and had everything and then some one needs for a get- and hide-away stay. The actual place is a little Oasis and how one pictures BC Nature to be. :-)
