Unique Place

We had a great time in Calgary and the vrbo was amazing! It’s very unique and nicely decorated with everything you need. It’s within walking distance of tons of stores, restaurants and places to see. Brenda was a great host and communication was excellent. Two things that would have been great to have were a microwave and A/C. Thank you Brenda for allowing us to stay in your home!

About the host

Hosted by Brenda Erskine

Welcome to Bowling Lanehouse! Why Bowling Lanehouse? Because you have the best seats for watching the Rotary Park Lawn Bowls Club do their thing from June to October.

My Airbnb philosophy…

You'll choose this place because you want something different from the standard hotel experience. Maybe you like to explore a city from the locals’ perspective. Maybe you like to cook your own meals now and then. Whatever your reason, I’d like you to be as comfortable as possible so if there’s anything I can do to make that happen, please just ask.

I like to support local businesses, so I’ve included a few of my favourite local things in the house. Locally made soap, candles and chocolates. I also have a great list of local restaurants and take out.

Why they chose this property

Centrally located, with easy access to the airport (20 minutes) and the TransCanada Highway (5 minutes). Banff is a 1.5 hour drive. Downtown theatres and restaurants are walking distance. Beautiful trails, parks, views and the river walk are at your doorstep.

What makes this property unique

The design of this house is spectacular. Hard to present in photos. Floor to ceiling windows and amazing views of the city skyline from the 2nd floor balcony.
