“Simply exceptional stay with an incredible suite, awesome host, and beautiful scenery.”
Simply exceptional stay. Richard is an amazing and friendly host, providing us a beautiful suite with access to the backyard, lawn chairs, tennis court, and so much more. Crystal clear skies above us, and we got to see amazing aurora borealis too. We will definitely be back. Wonderful location with easy access to Nelson and Ainsworth!
