Unfortunately my husband and I were unable to join our Daughter and family this year. Our Daughter, her Hubby and her children (our grandchildren) loved this stay as much as last year!Hosts are excellent...gave our Granddaughter some jam and the kids promptly ate it for breakfast! The kittens were a key highlight of the visit - Thank you again for having our family

This cabin was even more beautiful than in the photos. The area is absolutely beautiful and the host is the epitome of hospitality. The cabin was so clean and everything provided. The sound of the creek behind and the chickens in the morning felt like home. Sitting on the covered patio looking up and mount Tappen was beautiful all times of the day. Dogs and kittens and fruit trees all around. Coziness. We will never forget our first adventure in Salmon Arm with memories to last a lifetime.

Unforgettable Farm Stay
Three generations of family from BC and Los Angeles had the most perfect stay at Willow Tree Cottage. It’s an ideal place to unplug from this busy world and spend some time with our little grandchildren age 2 and 6. We were warmly welcomed by our hosts who provided fresh eggs and delicious raspberry jam. Being so close to the gorgeous gardens and sweet animals was very healing for us all. Thank you Nelly and Klaus, we will be back!!!

Cozy Cabin Indeed!
Our family had a wonderful stay! Fresh eggs and home made jam welcomed us, and the cabin was very clean and well prepared. Our family of 5 (with older teen/adult kids) fit comfortably in the cabin. The propane fire place was a nice bonus as the nights were chilly. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes etc. The cabin was close to Salmon Arm and to the lake. The Hosts were very friendly and welcoming. To be aware of: Steep ladder to climb up to the four single beds. Also, Rate says 159/night for two people, but read carefully to see that each additional person is 15 per night.

We needed a nice place to break up the drive between Whistler and Banff. I wasn't seeing a decent hotel. This was the perfect little place. Clean and neat, the linens smelled fresh, and everything was just perfect. Thank you!

This is a delightful cottage, very unique. The owners are personable and available. The cottage is full of lovely little accessories that make it homey and welcoming. The upstairs loft is perfect for able bodied children but access is steep and although we managed as seniors I wouldn't recommend it if you are at all physically challenged. The property is idyllic in many ways if you appreciate a small farm and garden. We were given a lovely welcome and we would love to go back.

Perfect setting
Perfect farm setting. Great for a quiet one day stay. We were on our way to Vancouver and stoped here for the night. There are some beautiful roads and vineyards in the area. The house was spotless. We had everything we could need + farm animals (chickens, ducks, cats)and beautiful flower/vegetable gardens. The hosts left us fresh eggs and jelly that we assume they make. Recommended.

Great escape from city
Nelly and Klaus were very kind and friendly, they accommodated our late night arrival and provided us with extra bedsheets. They even welcomed us with fresh farm eggs and homemade jam. nelly took time of her day to walk us around their farm and show us their chickens and crops, which children enjoyed checking out.
The cabin was clean cozy and provided with all the essentials and more. Overall, we very much enjoyed our stay and look forward to visiting that place again.

Quiet and quaint
This lovely property is just off the highway and a perfect stopping point for my daughter and I on our trip from Calgary to Vancouver. We were treated to a tour of puppies and kittens and an extensive garden and orchard. A feast of flowers and welcoming willow make this cozy cottage down to Earth and comforting. Everything we needed was anticipated and provided. We are so grateful to our hosts and hope to stop by next time!
