Very Clean property

We booked for our parents and total adults were 9. All slept very comfortably. It’s old bungalow but fully up graded. We will definitely recommend this.

Fantastic property

It doesn’t often happen that a property is better than you expected- but this property was truly spectacular (and even let us see a moose from the deck)! And the support we received from the host was top notch. I hadn’t realized that there were other buildings so close to this cabin so driving in was a surprise, but once there we felt utterly secluded the whole time. We will be back.

Beautiful little slice of heaven in the Kananskis.

Absolutely beautiful log home with tonnes of room for our family of 4. Nicely secluded backyard with a fire pit overlooking a beautiful meadow with the odd deer grazing it in and a lovely little nature walk close by on the property. Within 5 minutes to the town of Bragg Creek and just a short drive to the gorgeous Elbow Falls. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Our stay

We really enjoyed our stay in the Beaver House! It was everything we were looking for, cute and cozy. We spent a lot of time in front of the fireplace and walking the trails on the property, also used hiking trails not to far as well. The manager Spencer was great help when we needed him. I would definitely consider going back and visit in the summer! Thanks for having us!

Beautiful log cabin with amazing yard and property

Our group had a great time in this peaceful and private little getaway. We were pleasantly surprised at the little playground and walks and trails right on the property. The cabin had so much character and really felt authentic. Sunroom was bright and nice and open for kids to play. Overall great place!

Had a great stay

Enjoyed our stay very much. Thought the Deer House was all by itself but there were other buildings and another house on the property. Was no problem. There were more condiments provided such as coffee than was not expected. Needed more kitchen and bath towels. Decorations were interesting. No washing was available in the house but one was available in the caretakers house. Overall quite enjoyable.
