Great fit for our family

We really liked the location of the house being walking distance from a playground for our kids. And we could also walk to the restaurants on Main Street. The house is very kid friendly with lots of toys and books. Well stocked kitchen. Very nice backyard. We didn’t have any issues at all.

Beautiful home within walking distance of down town

Very pleased with the cleanliness and ease of parking when we showed up. Their is a book with fun activities and restaurant's in the area, as well as some games and instruments if you are hanging out at the house. The upstairs bedrooms had AC units which made sleeping at night great. The backyard is also a great place to hang out and eat dinner! Great Experience

Great spot, not perfect

We liked the Shambala and had fun exploring BV and local hot springs. The house was safe and secure in a great location. Wi-Fi worked well and we did a puzzle on the big table. Kitchen was workable but they need a big pot for spaghetti, and you’ll want to bring your own paper towels and TP. Biggest issue was we were cold. Blankets were thin and baseboard heaters weren’t all working. If they fixed those small issues we’d stay again. We had fun.
