Wonderful spot
This chalet is just as advertised and we had a wonderful stay. Mike was extremely responsive, the chalet was well stocked with everything we needed, and the hot tub was a welcome treat at the end of our full days exploring the region. Beautiful location - we enjoyed our stay and would recommend.

Perfect
We spent a week here with another couple to visit family who lived just down road. We loved every minute of it. Spent 3 days hiking Gros Morne and 2 days of the beautiful golf course. So happy to be able to enjoy the hot tub especially after hiking Gros Morne mountain. The house had everything we needed, was very clean and comfortable. Nice to have a washroom in every bedroom as well. If we ever come back to this area we will definitely stay here again. Thanks Mike!

A nice view of the river
It was very hot when we arrived to no air conditioning or fan the ad says no air but a fan would have been perfect. Beautiful view of river, could have been more welcoming as we cleaned off the nature droppings.

Nice vacation property
Nice, well equipped cottage. Would be a great place to stay for a longer period of time (our stay was short). Bedrooms were nice with each having its own bathroom-great for multiple couples. Hot tub was appreciated after a long day of hiking in Gros Morne!

Great peaceful, calm and quiet gateway
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. The property was very clean, warm and beautifully made. Very very cozy and we appreciate every bedroom having its own bathroom. The host was kind enough to allow us an early check-in which was very welcomed given our lengthy travel. 5 stars all around!

Ideal location for both golfers and skiers
We’ve booked a number of properties in the Humber Valley Resort both summer and winter and find this the ideal location. Love the fact that each bedroom has its own bathroom which is great for couples sharing the accommodations. This place is right on the water which it amazing. One suggestion I would make is they cut down some of the fir trees to allow for a better sight line to the River from the deck. We spent a couple of evenings just sitting on the deck and enjoying nature. Also the hot tub was another bonus which we thoroughly enjoyed and it would be perfect on the winter as well as it is enclosed. The place was spotless a d had everything we needed so would highly recommend this property.

It’s a great place, we had a nice stay with our grandkids who live just around the corner.
The property was exceptional. The house is very comfortable with all the amenities that a family would need... Understanding that this beautiful home is on the lake which The spiders and fly’s and bugs like to be as well. Only complaint would be that the house could have been cleaned of some of the cobwebs in the house and spiders prior to our arrival. But other than my Grandaughter getting over her phobia of spiders we did well at removing these little guys back to the outside of this cute lake cabin......we definitely will be back and recommend this place to whom ever explores this area in the future Thanks

Very well maintained and clean Property. Beautiful setting for hot tub over looking the lake at the mouth of the river. Chalet had everything you would need for a holiday retreat. The Golf course is one of the best. The scenery is breathe taking. I will be back next summer and will stay at this Chalet.

Great property in a great location
This home was perfect. Clean and well maintained, located right on the river, which was lots of fun for our 8 year old kids. The deck and hot tub overlooking the water was a great bonus. Also, if you get out to the East part of the island, go to Gatherall’s for a whale watching tour. Thanks Mike and company for making our first trip to NFLD a great one!

The accommodation was perfectly situated for us, as we were playing at the Senior Golf Championships
We really enjoyed the convenience and lovely accommodations for the three of us who were participation in a 3-day golf tournament. The cabin was very comfortable and we enjoyed both the open shared living space as well as the personal bedroom and bathroom spaces. We also enjoyed the lake view and great views.

Clean, well appointed, and private.
We had a terrific stay during our wedding weekend. Spacious chalet, intimate beachfront setting, enclosed hot tub (good working order and clean). Well stocked place including some coffee, plenty of towels, and even a bottle of red wine (thanks!) Two issues which were most likely isolated: 1- Billions of moths, must have been hatching season. Harmless but still unsightly. Recommend not leaving lights on over exterior doors and closing curtains as they were attracted to the light. 2- Beach had some cans from previous guests. We cleaned up and hopefully all guests can respect the property in same way. Overall thank you Michael for a wonderful stay. We would book again!
