Private Cottage
This Private cottage fronting onto the Ghost River with a kitchen and dining room, living room and a outdoor hot tub with great views of the Ghost Lake and Rocky Mountains. Plenty to do around this property with pond skating, ice fishing, cross country skiing and play grounds etc.
There were eight of us staying at the property. The furniture is very sparse, old, stained, and or broken. There is very little glassware and cutlery. On my first evening there, I had to eat my steak dinner with a spoon. There were only wine glasses and coffee cups, no other kind of glassware. Only 4 outside chairs, no patio table, except for a small, fold-up table. The hot tub had not been cleaned in a long time, so we could not use it. This is our 8 year of renting VRBOs all over BC and Alberta, and it was the worst experience to date. Especially for the money they charge, I would expect more. Do Not Book! the attached image sums it up.
The property is quite nice, though quite overgrown since the photos were taken. The dock is no longer in place, though there are photos of it in the listing. The property did not have enough of the following items: cups, forks/knives and outdoor chairs for the number of guests that the property sleeps. Overall we did enjoy our stay!
It needs lots of repair. Outlets don't work, toilet doesn't flush, mold growing on ceiling of shower, hot tub doesn't work, windows need repair, 3 of the beds are awful with steel bars running under them. Need light in shower and the driveway is in need of repair. If this property doesn't recieve repairs there will be snow drifts across the floors as window is broken in kitchen. It was clean and washer and dryer worked well, the location was wonderful, enjoyed ghost lake and the beautiful wild flowers & wild life.
This home is in a wonderful location but has seen better days. We were very disappointed to have arrived to a poorly stocked kitchen with dirty dishes that were put away in the cupboards and drawers, and old pots and pans with non-stick surfaces full of damage and scratches. There is black mould on the ceiling of the basement shower and glass in windows and doors repaired with tape. The kitchen has an adequate supply of wine glasses and mugs, but only one water glass. We came to stay with a party of 9 people and there were only 6 bath towels, two hand towels, and one kitchen towel provided and not even enough forks for all. On a hot day the kitchen is 35 degrees with full sun because it has beautiful, huge south facing windows but no window coverings. So eating supper in that kitchen required hats, sunglasses, and sunscreen. Finally, although the description and photos imply there is an outdoor table and chairs on the deck there is not.
The house was in a perfect location; half way between Calgary and Banff. Ghost lake was beautiful and we swam daily. The wildlife around house was awesome!!
