A charming, very well-equipped chalet in a quiet setting. We enjoyed the covered terrace, the grill, games and books, and the information about the local area. During our stay, we went for walks on the hiking trails.

Wonderful home tucked away

We had a great stay! The house was very comfy and was perfect for us. We had to go back and forth to Jasper so location was great. We loved sitting out on the back porch. It’s a lovely home.

As others have said, a top notch experience. The deck and view is amazing. A more than serviceable kitchen to cook and entertain for multiple guests. Well lit and comfortable. WiFi worked well with plenty of other entertainment including records and books to keep you entertained after a long day at Bankhead National Forest!Would love to come back, thanks Mark and Maggie!
