Guest Testimonials
"Spectacular beauty, tranquility and delicious food."
The Barretts, UK, September 2016
"The view of the mountains was breathtaking, but the hospitality was even more wonderful. You made this space feel like home, and we cannot wait to come back to this magical place one day."
Taylor & Amanda, Ontario, May 2017
"Had a wonderful stay, loved the isolation and natural beauty of the mountains. Food was excellent and accommodation perfect."
Denise & Fred, Australia, June 2018
"The cabins were not just clean, they were immaculate!"
The Haids, Calgary, August 2022
"While planning our trip we told our agent we wanted to meet the real BC/Canada. The surrounding, the people, the silence—oh wow!—our dream came true. Incredible landscape, the best food ever made for us, but above all, the welcome feeling."
Mikel & Karin, Netherlands, July 2018
"The peace and solitude were the perfect antidotes after our busy and crowded two weeks elsewhere. The hospitality was out of this world, and you gave away a wonderful secret…one of the best hikes through amazing scenery and we didn’t see another soul!"
Steve & Bernadette, UK, June 2019
"Thank you for the delicious meals, the peace and quiet, and for having the vision to create such a wonderful space. The purification lodge, the yoga retreat, and wood-fired hot tub helped me to reconnect with nature and myself."
C. Schapzry, Calgary, May 2022
"What a gift you have given us—deep rest and time without too much structure, nourishing food, and the land…just a gift to the world."
Raïsa, Newfoundland, May 2022
"Beautiful scenery, lovely food, and the walks are fantastic!"
The Ketleys, UK, July 2016
