Great access to mtb trails

We had a great stay at this property. The host was very responsive and professional. You can’t beat this location if you’re looking for a place to stay and ride Galbraith trails. It is also a short trip into downtown. I would stay here again and highly recommend.

Boys Mtn Bike Trip

11 of us stayed at the property. Great location in Galbraith. Internet was spotty, kitchen was mostly well equipped, house was tidy but not real clean, some plumbing was a bit in need of repair. Great living and dining areas for us all to gather. We all agreed it was a perfect house for a trip like ours

Great Retreat Spot

We were a group of bike friends, and this was a great home base. However, if we were a corporate retreat, this place would be PERFECT. The couches and patio were perfect for hanging and chatting, and the neighborhood was quiet.
