Mountain Retreat getaway, Doesnt get anymore peaceful than this.
You want a getaway from the city , or just traveling through for a sporting event or do you want to visit the lake 2 minutes up the road . Maybe you want to be on a hiking trail down the road 5 minutes or mountain biking with too many choices within 15 min. Either way this seperate Carriage house is a mountain getaway full on Nature and relaxation. Have your own 1400 sq/ft home to relax. Better than a hotel I would say!

Beautiful stay
My bridesmaids and myself stayed here for 2 days for my wedding in September. The hosts were so accommodating and very communicative. John was very sweet and brought us another mirror for us to all get ready the day of. The property is beautiful and quiet and the beds were super comfy too! I will be suggesting to others to stay here if they’re in the area!!

Beautiful Home
Really enjoyed our time at this location. Loved the hosts four legged family members and enjoyed being able to use the tennis courts when we were based at home. Nice to be greeted by a lovely bottle of red and some sweet treats and some cold water chilling in the fridge. Close to all amenities but loved being in an rural environment.
Another mirror (perhaps in a bedroom) would have been good to allow us all to get ready given that there’s only 1 bathroom. Window covering on the glass door in the 2nd bedroom would offer more privacy. Overall a great experience, my only other comment would be that I would have liked to open the windows etc overnight but would have needed screens
We had a lovely peaceful stay. The hosts were great and easy to contact. The house was well equipped and beautifully maintained. Thanks for a great stay.

Carriage House
We stayed at this property for 5 nights over August Long weekend and we were very comfortable!
The house is much bigger than I was expecting it to be! The beds in the two bedrooms really are very comfortable! Even the bonus room upstairs is quite large. The kitchen is fully equipped but come prepared to hand wash your dishes. Not a big deal at all for us. The location was great! Easy access to everything we needed. The owners and their dogs are all very friendly! We brought our dog and the owners were great about coordinating use of the yard with us for the dogs.We had a lot of privacy and the owners were very accommodating! Would stay there again in the future! It was perfect for what we needed as we were attending a 4 day family reunion down the road.

Great stay
John and his family are great hosts. They have a beautiful property and were very welcoming of our family.
Lots to do around where they live including Golden Ears Park, Cultus Lake Waterpark, even downtown Van is only a SkyTrain away after driving in a bit.
Would definitely recommend it.

Great Location
This was the second time we booked the cottage, we like it that much. If you want a quiet location that's near lots of parks and lakes this will be ideal for you. The cottage is kept immaculately and the host is attentive to your specific needs. We have booked again for next summer. I hope Bailey the husky will be there to greet us next year!
Awesome country house with very attentive hosts! My family of 6 enjoyed our stay outside the hustle of the city, giving us time to recharge between trips to Vancouver, Whistler and Washington. Host was responsive and left some nice arrival gifts. The pets on the property were a bonus for my kids. Great stay!

A Perfect Escape
We stayed at this beautiful location with our family (2 adults, 2 big teenagers and 2 tweens) and had the best time! The property is nestled just outside of Maple Ridge in a quiet and beautiful area surrounded by forest and steps away from great hiking. The hosts know the area well and have awesome insider tips on day trips and outings in the area.
The property itself is clean, beautiful and welcoming with tons to do right out your front door. Private tennis court also has basketball, pickleball and hockey or you can’t play in the open green space (the kids lived outside and had so much fun). The beds are insanely comfortable and we were very comfortable and slept better than we do at home!
The dogs are just the icing on the cake. My kids are still talking about Bailey and apparently we need a big, fluffy husky now.
Looking forward to booking again!

Peaceful guest house
We loved using the tennis court, petting the big husky and being surrounded by nature. Unfortunately, the dishwasher was not usable and the water was not potable, but the beds were comfortable and it had everything else we needed. The host was very helpful and responsive. Would stay again!

The fifth star are the dogs
Pictures are accurate. Location is quiet and relaxing. Owner is responsive. The unit was very clean and is better stocked than most VRBOs.
The highlight for us were the dogs on property, they are the best. We also brought our dog and everyone had a good time.

Silence is Golden, the perfect Getaway
With the lake and trails conveniently nearby, having access to a car will allow you to fully enjoy the complete Maple Ridge experience. For city dwellers, this provides a refreshing change from the typical urban routine. The host family was fantastic and always willing to lend a hand if necessary.
This stay is quality with a good serving of quiet in a country setting.

Beautiful Country Getaway
We stayed here for 2 nights while attending a wedding near by. The photos don’t do this place justice, it’s quite spacious and well laid out. The decor style, even the dishes were well designed. A couple highlights of this place were the king size beds (incredibly comfortable), the land surrounding the home (which is fully gated in, which made things easy for walking my dog each morning), the pickle ball and tennis court, as well as how friendly the host is (anything we needed last minute he was available to help). We would definitely stay here again, as we also have family in the area, this location makes it quite convenient for us to attend future family gatherings. I would definitely recommend this as a great getaway location to relax and enjoy the countryside. One last thing, there’s an amazing lake near by (3 min drive) that is so warm, clean and picturesque, plus many other activities to take advantage of.
