Great place for our get together

This property and area was perfect for our senior friend get together, a tradition of 40 years now. The house is beautiful, plenty of bedrooms and amenities in the home. The location has nice walking opportunities and we explored the towns of Bently and Rimby. Although we did not bring watercraft the lake has good boating and fishing. The host was easy to get ahold of through the entire rental and reschedule process due to covid and during our stay. Very happy with the experience. My only suggestion is to instal wifi.

Great for large family

Beautiful home in quiet vacation style neighborhood. Owners live nearby and were really kind and helpful. Good for our large family get together with lots of bedrooms, beds, and all bathrooms available for group use. Kitchen nicely stocked, and owner left a fun welcome gift! Only issue was in booking; availability was not correct on Vrbo. Meant a lot of schedule rearranging, but owner was helpful as we sorted it out.

Great Alberta Getaway

This house, the property and the lake were all such a treat! This was a last minute local holiday for us, and it turned out to be amazing. Gull Lake is a clear and relatively warm lake, and having our boat be moored in the canal made for easy lake access. The house is immaculate, well equipped and has a great layout. The woods around the house provide lots of privacy, and using the fire pit in the backyard was a cozy way to end the day. Craig was terrific in his communications and a pleasure to deal with. We highly recommend this rental.

Gull Lake VRBO

Great for our extended family. Lots of room in the house and we enjoyed a bbq one night and a fire one night. The shallow lake is fun for children. I enjoyed the fishing catching pike and walleye. The wasps were annoying every time we tried to eat outside but other than that a great stay!! The ice cream at the corner market was a great treat also!

Beautiful area

Lovely surroundings with lots of trees. The house worked well for our family with the bunk rooms for the kids. The beach was a bit of a trek with little kids. Kid enjoyed the sandy beach and water was shallow for a long way so safe for the kids. Beautiful lake to boat on but the water was cold! Overall a great experience and everyone enjoyed it.

Great Gull Lake Vacation

This property was perfect for our family mini vacation. Each of the three levels have two bedrooms plus a bathroom. It also has a beautiful sunroom and a very large deck, which our kiddos really enjoyed. The kitchen freezer/fridge broke down during our stay and Craig was very quick to respond and find a solution that worked for us to ensure that our food did not spoil. We would rent this property again!

Meridian Beach

This property was very well set up for two big families. House is well equipped with everything you need. My kids caught lots of fish off the dock, which was so much fun for them. The young kids loved the two parks and the beach is very little kid friendly. There is a store very close to get some of the essentials if you run out or want a geat ice-cream cone.

Gull Lake Rental

What a beautiful spot, the property manager was quick to reply to my questions. The photo's of the house did not do it justice, it was a lot more than expected. The only drawback was that it was a 15-20 minute distance to a grocery store if you ran out of something. Load up before you go and you will definatley enjoy this gem.

Excellent experience.

We have had various family vacations over the years, but all our family members agree this is probably the best setting and property,. Our host Craig went above and beyond to make our holiday exceptional. We all would like to go back in the future.

Beautiful property only steps away from canal and then into the lake. Fantastic family outing.

Rental was quick, easy and owner's great to deal with. Great place for a family vacation away from it all but still qiite accessible to a larger center for any grocery runs etc .

Great house with a lot of space

We enjoyed our winter stay here. The house was clean and spacious with a great living room for hanging out with friends. The forest nearby had nice trails to explore and we loved the bird books that helped us to identify the bird we saw.

Perfect place for a weekend or other getaway

The house, the setting and the area were wonderful. The 8 of us had a great time together having delicious meals, crafting and nice walks. We all had comfotable places to sleep and there was always a bathroom free. Owner was responsive and available. Perfect! Would consider booking it again if any of us were on the hunt for a time away place.

Great location for a multi- family summer vaca!

Beautiful house, right on the canal with easy beach access. Perfect for hanging out, beaching, water sports you name it. We had 15 of us and had everything we needed. Owners are local and very responsive to questions and help. Tennis courts and basketball hoop available for additional entertainment. Just a great week of summer vacation!

Amazing location, beautiful house

Stayed in the summer for a week with friends (and small children). We all had a wonderful time. Very clean, new and great location. Backyard backs onto a small dock on a small canal and it is a short walk to a private beach. Has a very nice firepit area, outdoor seating and lovely indoor sunroom. One thing though, the house only has 3 full bathrooms (not 4 as the listing says).
