About this property

Escape to Your Mountain Sanctuary—Where Adventure Meets Serenity! 🌲✨


Whether you’re craving a breath of fresh air from the city buzz, passing through for a weekend wedding or game, or dreaming of days spent kayaking on Whonnock Lake or wandering the lush trails of Golden Ears Provincial Park—this is your invitation to unwind in style.

Your Private Retreat Awaits:

🏡 1,400 sq/ft Carriage House – More than a vacation rental, it’s a cozy haven with all the space and privacy of home.

🌄 Nature at Your Doorstep – Hit the hiking trail entrance just 5 minutes away down the road from our gate, or chase adrenaline on world-class mountain biking routes 10 minutes from your doorstep.

🍃 Relaxation, Redefined – Sip morning coffee on your own private patio, have your own family BBQ in a fully fenced, secure yard, or stargaze by your outdoor firepit—no hotel room can compete!
Why You’ll Love It:

✨ Adventure or Zen? Both. Spend your days exploring misty forests and crystal-clear lakes, then return to a space designed for total relaxation.

🛌 Hotel? No Thanks. Spread out in a full kitchen, lounge by the fireplace in the living room or on the deck- or soak in a tub—your getaway, your rules.

📍 Perfectly Located – Close enough to local hotspots (yes, even that wedding venue up the street!), yet tucked away in a peaceful oasis where the only sounds are birdsongs, frogs and rustling leaves.
Ready to Trade “Everyday” for “Extraordinary”?
Pack your sense of adventure—and your favorite book for the patio. This isn’t just a stay; it’s your story waiting to unfold. Book now and let nature welcome you home. 🏔️🌿

P.S. Trust us—you’ll want to stay forever. 😉

We had a wonderful stay! John was super communicative and very helpful with any questions we had. The yard is great for entertaining the little ones, and the location is nice and quiet. It was great for us as a family to have separate rooms for everyone to get a good night's sleep. Will definitely stay again!

Maple Ridge Acreage Guest House

It was nice to stay on an acreage near Maple Ridge for a change of scenery vs being in the city. The Wii was a hit with my daughter and she spent a lot of time playing Mario Kart.

We were in the area to help celebrate a 65th birthday. John's property was ideal for a family get together and barbecue. He even let us pick some of their blackberries for our morning breakfasts!Communication with John, cleanliness of the property and access to Whonnock Lake on the hottest day of the year were all ideal. Don't hesitate to book!

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!

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!
