Pretty and peaceful!

So much thought has been given to the design of the outdoor space offering something for everyone but especially kids! 6 kids 4-10 years, loved the double trampoline set-up, the hotter, the huge movie screen and theatre room. The adults enjoyed the card table off the kitchen, the poker and pool table downstairs.

Fun on the jumpoline!

Wonderful family holiday with 12 of us. The youngest, 4 years old, loved the trampoline and kept telling us he was going to the “jumpoline”! The older kids (11-14) had a great time in the movie room while the adults liked all the space and the pretty grounds. It rained one day so we enjoyed indoor games and then it was warm and sunny for the beach day. Great stay!

Family Get Away

Great place for the 10 of us to get together and unwind. Grandkids had a great time with all the space, and especially enjoyed the trampolines. So nice to be able to be in a private setting with lots of room. Only downside was the hot tub wasn't working - but the owner tried everything she could to get it running.

Wonderful getaway

Our family enjoyed a really special Thanksgiving weekend from the moment we arrived to the time we left. From the trampolines, sandbox, badminton & crib board to the hot tub, firepit, pool table and theatre room ... this home had something for everyone.

Great family gathering place

7 of us came together from different provinces for a wedding at a local venue. Had amazing visits in this cozy quiet home between functions. Lori quick to answer questions but VRBO messaging slow to load. Only wish there was a closet or 2 for our suits and dresses, otherwise made good use of hot tub and all amenities - sorry Lori we forgot to reset the pool table!! Thank you so much for making your home available!!

Family gathering

The property was perfect for our three families getting together for a few days. The house is spacious and comfortable, but we spent most of our time in the backyard. The kids were occupied all day with the play structure, trampolines, hammocks, horses. We enjoyed time around the fire and the fire table. Lori was quick to respond and help us out when we had questions or needed anything. We have recommended the property to others and would like to stay again.

Sylvan Lake summer holiday - 2023

We very much enjoyed this property with all the amenities offered. The kids enjoyed the freedom of cycling and roaming that they do not have in the city. Lots of outside toys and activities. They especially liked the pedal car! Easy access to the boat ramp at Sunbreaker Cove as well as to the beach at the Town of Sylvan Lake. A+ rating from us!

Great getaway

Everything as advertised and then more. It was a fantastic place for our family get away The facilities were well equipped and a close drive to several beaches. We recommend the Sandy Point beach. Our weather was not what we hoped but there was so much to do at the house that we enjoyed our time there. Wifi was on the slow side if you are addicted to such things.

Great for Kids

There were 10 of us in our group - 6 adults and 4 kids under 7. The accommodations were great for all of us, especially for the kids. They really enjoyed all the various activities that were available for them - play area, trampolines, lots of green space to run around in, great places for riding their bikes with no traffic, and the best of all - the go cart. There was even lots for them to do inside if the weather was lousy - games, TV, theatre room, toys, crafts, etc. And everyone really enjoyed the hot tub, especially after the kids went to bed. If you have a large group and you needs lots of activities for eveyone, this place is great.

Weekend stay

The property was nice but parking was a bad issue with accessing the parking lot without getting buzzed in. The concierge was not very knowledgeable or helpful in addressing that issue. The towels were limited and had strands of hair on them. The master bathroom shower leaked on the floor. The wash machines was filthy with grime and debree in the seal. The view was amazing and the beds were comfortable.

Family Day Weekend

This property was absolutely perfect for a weekend getaway for our g4oup of 12, which included 4 children and a dog. Great home, fun outdoor space with playground, trampoline, hottub, and a fire pit(even if yesterdays snow put a damper onour weiner roasting plans!) Lori was a super responsive and accommodating host and on her suggestion we went into Sylvan Lake one day to enjoy their Winterfest activites. Thanks again!
