Beautiful home,not maintained lacking bedding proper dishes, dirty pool, cheap mattresses

Very beautiful house. However, I spent the first three days trying to clean and get the pool in the proper order. Not well-maintained. Nothing matched. The dishes were mismatched. The mattress in the master bedroom was substandard. And a multi million dollar home and they can’t afford to put decent bedding that matches or the dishes. Garage was disgusting. Very disappointed that I had to waste my time cleaning for half my vacation screen in the kitchen were so filthy I had to wash them in the shower downstairs.

Looks Great but Very Stuffy

I enjoyed my stay but the house was generally quite stuffy/dusty, especially on the basement level. In fact the basement air quality was so poor that my mother, who is generally in good health, could hardly breath. Additionally, the pool was a nice amenity except for the array of dead bugs and debris floating within. The hot tub was also a disappointment due to the scalding water (lower the water temperature entailed coordinating with the property manager which was worth the time given our short stay). Overall the stay was enjoyable albeit very disappointing for the price paid.

What a Treat!

Ghost Lake is perfectly situated between Calgary and Banff. It’s a beautiful home with lots of property that is great for nature walks. We saw a moose, elk and lots of deer from the house. We had 14 people and plenty of room. The hot tub was difficult to keep hot. The property host was very responsive to questions and concerns. It would be great to have multiple gate openers and some extra sets of sheets, blankets, and pillows. Our family likes lots of pillows. Overall, wonderful experience. I would highly recommend.

Amazing property

Great size and features for a big group. Hot tub was very hot and had a hard time getting in touch to adjust it. No other complaints.
