It was a pleasure having you as guests. Glad you enjoyed your stay
Ramona
About the host
Hosted by Ramona Faust
We love this property and you will too. Lush lawns and gardens and a view of Kootenay Lake from the master bedroom, surrounded by interior rainforest, a small natural pond, this property is magical. We love sitting on the large composite wood deck with a coffee and enjoying the birds and occasional deer.
Why they chose this property
The Village of Procter is friendly and quaint. Our lifelong friends have created an active, community with a library , playground, bakery, upcycle clothing store, a general store, fishing wharf, hiking trails and ongoing events at the community hall.
What makes this property unique
This unique 3 bedroom post and beam home was custom designed for an active family of 5 with a huge open concept kitchen- living,- dining area, and a big family room. 52 windows bring the forest indoors and the two living room bays offer a pensive place to sit and soak it all in.
