The patio was king. Kicking back with a mountain view was most relaxing.I had a few issues with the lock box at first, but it was dark.Shower was great. It had a modern setup I'd never seen before.We couldn't get the wifi password to work.Overall, loved the stay. Will come again if we need to stay in Calgary.

The inside pics accurately depict the place, it was clean & we enjoyed the free coffee. They also offered to loan us 2 cans of bear spray which was awesome (& not needed) and we left those for future renters. The big issue we had was lack of correct information & communication. There was no honesty bar which I only found out after I asked if I should pay in Canadian or US dollars. No issue with it not being there, but delete that part from the description of the unit.The biggest disappointment was the Wi-Fi. The wi-fi information was wrong. It didn't have the correct Wi-Fi name nor the correct password. The 2 of us searched AT&T and Verizon's coverage map before the trip and thought we had cell service. But we didn't. So when we got to the unit and tried to connect, the Wi-Fi wasn't listed and we couldn't message the owner. Luckily the upstairs was being rented out and they let us connect to their Wi-Fi. Otherwise, we would have been in a bad situation. When I messaged the owner, they said "I am not sure why VRBO is sending old instructions". Disappointing as there is no reason not to have correct information (honesty bar & something as critical as Wi-Fi) and then blame VRBO for misinformation. The outside lawn was overgrown but they did get it mowed while we were there but no weed wacking/trimming and still 4 foot tall weeds in the bed. The firepit looked nothing like it did in the pictures.

We had a great stay here! It felt right at home. Love the projector that makes it feel like you’re in a movie theatre. I will say however that the microwave was too small to make a bag of popcorn which kind of sucked but we brought other snacks. And there is no mixing bowls or a hot plate or pots or pans to make food. There is a small grill outside which is nice but a little hard to make a side dish or anything. It was no different than staying in a hotel though with more features than a normal hotel so overall I would definitely recommend staying here! The owner was also great to communicate with. She texted back very quickly and solved any issue we came across!
