Silence is Golden, the perfect Getaway

With the lake and trails conveniently nearby, having access to a car will allow you to fully enjoy the complete Maple Ridge experience. For city dwellers, this provides a refreshing change from the typical urban routine. The host family was fantastic and always willing to lend a hand if necessary. This stay is quality with a good serving of quiet in a country setting.

A Perfect Escape

We stayed at this beautiful location with our family (2 adults, 2 big teenagers and 2 tweens) and had the best time! The property is nestled just outside of Maple Ridge in a quiet and beautiful area surrounded by forest and steps away from great hiking. The hosts know the area well and have awesome insider tips on day trips and outings in the area. The property itself is clean, beautiful and welcoming with tons to do right out your front door. Private tennis court also has basketball, pickleball and hockey or you can’t play in the open green space (the kids lived outside and had so much fun). The beds are insanely comfortable and we were very comfortable and slept better than we do at home! The dogs are just the icing on the cake. My kids are still talking about Bailey and apparently we need a big, fluffy husky now. Looking forward to booking again!

Peaceful guest house

We loved using the tennis court, petting the big husky and being surrounded by nature. Unfortunately, the dishwasher was not usable and the water was not potable, but the beds were comfortable and it had everything else we needed. The host was very helpful and responsive. Would stay again!

The fifth star are the dogs

Pictures are accurate. Location is quiet and relaxing. Owner is responsive. The unit was very clean and is better stocked than most VRBOs. The highlight for us were the dogs on property, they are the best. We also brought our dog and everyone had a good time.

Beautiful Country Getaway

We stayed here for 2 nights while attending a wedding near by. The photos don’t do this place justice, it’s quite spacious and well laid out. The decor style, even the dishes were well designed. A couple highlights of this place were the king size beds (incredibly comfortable), the land surrounding the home (which is fully gated in, which made things easy for walking my dog each morning), the pickle ball and tennis court, as well as how friendly the host is (anything we needed last minute he was available to help). We would definitely stay here again, as we also have family in the area, this location makes it quite convenient for us to attend future family gatherings. I would definitely recommend this as a great getaway location to relax and enjoy the countryside. One last thing, there’s an amazing lake near by (3 min drive) that is so warm, clean and picturesque, plus many other activities to take advantage of.

From the first contact with John he made us feel right at home. Place was great, bed comfortable and lots of room. John provided fans for us as the weather was a bit warm. Loved all the dogs and little and big kitty. ❤️

Oasis in the Forest

Was a wonderful escape to peace and quiet after a busy hot day. Comfortable accommodation for all of us with all the amenities of home. Was exactly what was seen in the photos. Could have used another mirror other than the bathroom to get us all ready on time. Accommodating hosts with super friendly dog to greet you.

A Gem

We were extremely pleased with our stay. We had communicated with our host we would be bringing our dog and loved to hike trails with him. John went out of his way to accommodate our plans. Special doggie bowls were left inside the cottage, chilled bottle water was left in the refrigerator to take on our hikes and even ideas for trails to explore since this was our first visit to the area. And our border collie just adored the host's dog, Bailey. We so loved our stay we have made plans to return next summer.

Quiet and serene

Loved staying here. The property is about 15 minutes to nearest city so it’s quiet and beautiful. Our kids are 9 and 11 and they have a tennis court that they used for roller hockey and had a blast. The hosts are very friendly and communicated well with us. They have the nicest dog, Bailey, who will greet you when you arrive. Our kids adored her! Recommend if you’re looking for a quiet getaway that is kid friendly!
