About this property

Private Entrance, Foyer, and Deck

Why stay in a hotel when you can have your kids, grandkids, and friends come to you.

This 1650 sq.ft. bungalow is across the street from South Glenmore Park on the Glenmore Reservoir. Walking trails, kids water park, the Calgary Sailing Club, and more make this an excellent home for a short visit here in Calgary. There is even a superb little kids park just 4 houses south of here for entertaining the wee ones. Also near by is Heritage Park, and Southland Leisure Centre with its featured wave pool, water slides, and a wading pool for the very young.


Close to RockyView Hospital, Starbucks, Safeway and Co-Op for groceries, and a local pub for pints or pub food. Numerous close by restaurants, and close to the Glenmore Sailing Club, Calgary Stampede, Chinook Mall and South Centre Mall.

Rental is for main floor of house, with sole access and control by our guests.
The owner's suite is downstairs, completely separate and walled off from the upstairs.
The only common area is the landing at the back door, resulting in rare but occasional interaction with our guests.

The home also features a gourmet kitchen, and is well set up for light entertaining of friends and family. We also feature a terrific art collection largely of works by Canadian artist Tony Tascona, Order of Canada, RCA, LLB

About the host

Hosted by marty

Host profile image
I'm a father of 3 adult children, spouse of 35 years, long time software professional, and strategic marketing executive. As a young man I worked in customer catering for the CN Railway as a porter, waiter, and 2nd and 3rd cook. For recreation and conditioning, I still play semi-competitive 4 wall court handball, and walk in the extensive and beautiful trails alongside the reservoir and down into the WeaselHead Nature Reserve.

Now a days I am semi-retired, working on the occasional project for startups and scale ups. Most recently I have undertaken art archiving and website development of my father's lengthy art and successful art career.

There's always something to be done!
