Beautiful heritage country charm
Loved the heritage and country charm. The home was well equipped, the beds were comfortable and the setting was wonderful. The location was just a few minutes from everything. Brandon was a great host and we would definitely want to stay again.

Step back in time.
Cannot say how much we enjoyed our stay here. The house has been preserved much as it was built and we loved that part so much! Brandon and his family were always there for any questions we had. Check in and out was no problem. Easy 5 stars and a must stay anytime we are in the Salmon Arm area.

Perfect cottage for a perfect vacation!
Brandon was a fantastic host from start to finish and we couldn’t have asked for a better stay. I had some questions about the cottage before we rented it due to needing some specific accommodations and he was very responsive and friendly even before we booked and that great communication lasted throughout our stay. Check in was seamless and the cottage was so welcoming with everything we needed for our week long stay. It was VERY hot (above 30°c) the entire week and we found the cottage to be pleasantly comfortable and not too hot for sleeping in as long as we kept the air con running and the fan in the master pushing the hot air out with blinds & curtains closed during the day & opened the windows up at night and reversed the fan in the master to push cooler air in. Sitting by the pond looking out at the mountains every morning with our coffee was such a lovely way to start our day and the cottage location was fantastic for our purposes as it’s close to the beach and all amenities without being in the city. Lastly I cannot forget to mention the farm tour & delicious garlic! Brandon took the time to show us around and answer ALL of my questions and it was one of the highlights of our vacation and after smearing some of their garlic (roasted) on sourdough, we had to bring enough home to last a while!!! We can’t wait to see what comes next on the Forget Me Not Garlic Farm & Cottage and we will for sure be back to stay again to find out…if they’ll have us!

Cozy cottage
Loved the antique details of both cottage and furnishings. Communication with host was good. The cottage was very clean, quiet and convenient for roots and blues. The only tip I would give is the welcome binder mentions a welcome basket from the farm in the fridge, but there wasn’t one. I would have found it thrilling to have some local produce and this would have upped my rating to a 5. Thanks for a lovely stay

Unforgettable stay at Forget Me Not Garlic Farm 😊
Upon arrival to this quaint and elegant cottage we were greeted with an incredible farm basket full of vibrate produce and eggs all local from the farm. The stay at Forget Me Not Garlic Farm was full of charm and history, with the land having been in the family for over 100 years. It was a truly unique experience being able to read up on the story of family and the farm in the welcome guest book as well as being surrounded by family photos and original artwork in the cabin. I would highly recommend a stay with Forget Me Not Farm if you’re visiting the Salmon Arm area. I know we’ll definitely be returning next year. Thanks for everything Brandon!
