Hosts were amazing! We had a wonderful stay. Cabin was so cute, warm, clean, and well stocked with everything we needed and more! Looking forward to booking again, great place to stay, we were so happy we could bring our pup with us! The fresh eggs and coffee were a great treat for breakfast in the morning!
We loved this place! Cozy cabin within a short drive to great falls, historic towns and many wonderful lakes. Andrea was an amazing host and the property and amenities were great! Can't wait to go back!
Owners are very friendly, greet us upon our arrival and show us around, keep communicating with us throughout the stay, and check on us to see if we need any supplies, etc.
We really enjoyed our stay. A perfect one night escape and great quiet anniversary. The cabin was quaint and and had everything we needed. The hosts were helpful, friendly and were great with communication. They also gave us our privacy and space which is always appreciated. We would stay again..
A great little get away. Accomadations are extremly comfortable and well laid out with everything you need for a great stay. The farm fresh eggs were a real treat.
Location gives you great access to visit the David Thompson area to enjoy foothills, rivers and lakes.
Beautiful 'bunkie' in a peaceful spot with excellent hosts. Our 1st time fishing we didn't catch anything but we will be back with a little better equipment;) We highly recommend the Twisted Ski!
This place didn't disappoint! It's a truly unique get-away. The tiny house had everything we needed including fresh flowers and farm eggs! They even booked us in very last minute on the long weekend. Very accommodating and kind!
Andrea greeted us when we arrived and showed us around. The cabin was beautiful and had everything we needed. We loved the fresh eggs! Thank you for a relaxing stay.
Andrea and James are amazing hosts, very welcoming and helpful! The cabin is outfitted with the basic necessities needed for a comfortable and cozy escape to the country. The best part is being able to take walks in the nearby forest. I'd definitely stay again.
Friendly, outgoing, respectful, honest family oriented couple. Outdoor enthusiasts who loves to cross country ski, hike and fish! We love to meet like minded people and enjoy a good "chin wag" around a fire.
Why they chose this property
We like to think this property chose us. It’s the perfect location, close to town and backing onto a beautiful marshland where we hear loons and sandhill cranes throughout the summer, and enjoy cross-country skiing in the winter. It offers the ideal blend of quiet, tranquil beauty, all while being close to Rocky Mountain House and the wild, untamed backcountry. We love exploring the hiking trails around Abraham Lake and especially enjoy visiting Nordegg and the Miner’s Café for their fresh, homemade pies. One of our favorite winter activities is ice fishing on the many little lakes in the area, where we often catch fresh fish for dinner! Rocky Mountain House is a year-round playground, perfect for hiking, mountain biking, cross-country skiing, horseback riding, fishing, or whatever your heart desires. We feel incredibly lucky to call this place home.
What makes this property unique
The Lazy Larch Cabin has a unique story. It was built to accommodate a sky diving school north of Edmonton and spent 20 years as a instructor accommodation with bathrooms. It was relocated here in 2022. The Cabin was fully renovated and every aspect of it was reinvented with love with the help of a community of friends and family. Behind the walls inside the cabin are words and wishes from everyone who helped us build this dream and thoughtfully chosen words of well wishes for our future guests stay. The energy is truly peaceful as every inch of the the space was created from love and hope. We know you will feel it too.
