peaceful cabin getaway

gas grill equipped kitchen cleaning supplies free coffee

I liked the gas grill available on the patio. i did appreciate the fully equipped kitchen. It has all dishes, cutlery, pots, and pans. we needed nothing. also, there was lots of napkins, toilet paper, cleaning supplies, dishwasher pods, and coffee available. i got more coffee from reception too.

the road to get here was not in good condition. made it a little less pleasant. it affected the overall experience a bit.

amazing chalet experience!!!

short drive fully equipped chalet thoughtful supplies

This chalet is near calgary-just a quick 50-minute drive away!!! a super short 15 minutes gets you to explore the town!!! the chalet is fully equipped with everything you need, dishes, cutlery, pots, and pans!!! they even thought of napkins, toilet paper, cleaning supplies, dishwasher pods, and coffee. And, if you run out of coffee, you can grab more at the reception!!!

i noticed the floors creaked and popped so loudly!!! it woke everyone up when someone went to the bathroom at night. also, the refrigerator froze all our food, and we had to toss some salads. that was annoying.

Dining

The kitchen had everything i needed to prepare great meals. plus, with the coffee readily available at the reception, i felt energized for all my explorations and activities. The food was AMAZING!!!
