Joe was an excellent host. The cabin itself is quite rustic so if you're not into nature and expect everything to be spotless, and/or need internet/cell service, then this place may not be for you. The location is AMAZING. We loved not having wifi or cell service; the peace, quiet and privacy was incredible; sitting by the river and letting our dog explore the property was wonderful. It was also a really good jumping off point for visiting Crowsnest Pass, Fernie and Waterton. Joe's stories were so interesting and staying on the ranch was a nice treat for us. Overall a good experience and we'll be back.

Joe is amazing. Very friendly and helpful. Property is beautiful. Small appliances could use some upgrades and some cleaning to small items, ie fans is required. Lots of freedom for dog. Steps from river and fly fishing. Remember to bring baggies and foil etc as none on site.

Our stay was unforgettable. The cabin was cozy, the riverfront setting was peaceful, and the wildlife — especially the birds — made the whole experience feel enchanted. Joe is a remarkable host: thoughtful, insightful, a gifted storyteller, and deeply connected to the land he cares for. We left feeling restored and already planning our return. Thank you, Joe!

Joe is a very gracious and hospitable host - he was there to greet us upon arrival with a warm/welcoming tour of the cabin and property. We had a great stay, despite the "top-gun" skill set of mosquitos :). The river was extremely high due to record seasonal rains (which was a very good thing) so we had to seek alternative areas for fishing...which were very easy to find. The cabin has a ton of character. IF you're looking for the "Ritz", look elsewhere. If you're looking for a tranquil, off the grid, quiet spot with tons of wild life, privacy and character, you've found it! Joe will ensure you have everything you need and more. He's a local who's done it all in this part of Alberta and he'll point you in whatever direction you'd like to head. Enjoy.
