This is a beautiful home and we loved the location. We were there to explore the national parks and it is conveniently located on the west side of Cochrane, so easy in/out to head west to the parks. It was also nice to eat in Cochrane, where the prices and traffic was better than Canmore or Banff! We enjoyed a round of miniature golf in Cochrane too! The house was well supplied and it was nice to be able to do laundry while there. Having 3 bathrooms was very appreciated as we were getting ready for the days exploration. The table in the kitchen expands, and there's a bench seat in the closet, so we were able to all sit around the table together to play cards/games. We set one of the puzzles on that table too and that fit well. We were gone during the day and it rained a bit each day while we were there, but there is a grill and hot tub. Also, several areas to relax in the backyard. There is no driveway, only street parking. It was the perfect place for us to stay!

Jaimie was the perfect host. Excellent communication and the home was even better than pictured. The dog friendly home is in a safe, family friendly location with parking right in front. All amenities were close by for picking up groceries and getting around town. The instructions were clear for using the bbq & hot tub and check out was very reasonable. We would definitely stay here again.
The house is well equipped and was a great home away from home. There was no private parking but lots of street parking. The yard was fenced and had a dog run which worked great for us. It was our first time staying in Cochrane, so we didn’t really know where in the city would be best to stay but we lucked out with this location, close to some great walking trails down along the Bow River. The only recommendation I would make is to replace the pillows, but this could have been an easy fix if we would have remembered to bring our own pillows. Ice maker, in the kitchen was a nice touch. We didn’t make time to try out the hot tub, maybe next time.
We stayed here for two nights. The check in was easy. The house was spotless and the neighborhood was lovely. A quick walk to the river trail which is excellent if you’re traveling with your dog! Very close to all amenities.
Lovely home, lots of space, very clean. Nice backyard for both our dog and for us to relax. Only a short drive to amenities downtown and so close to the riverfront trail for walking the dog or running/cycling etc.
This house was perfect for our group of 5. We brought our dog to get her away from the fireworks in the US. It was in a nice neighborhood that was quiet and very close to a beautiful trail along the Bow River. The beds were comfortable. The bathrooms were well stocked and the water pressure was fantastic!The house had many lovely plants that especially appealed to our 92 year old mom. The hosts live in the house when no guests are there and they were generous to share condiments and coffee so that we could just purchase groceries that we would consume. Kitchen supplies were more than adequate— much better than some VRBO’s we have stayed in.We did not go into Calgary but it would not be a bad drive. We did go to Banff and Lake Louise which was a day trip. Downtown Cochrane is small but has charm and some nice shops. The Saturday farmers market was nice.There’s also a large dog park about 1/2 mile from the house so we took advantage of that several times. Oh yes, we also enjoyed the hot tub several times. We did not use the exercise equipment but I think it looked impressive for someone so inclined.
We had a really nice time here. The house was very tidy when we arrived and looked just like the photos. Lots of space upstairs and downstairs. The hot tub in the backyard was great.
We arrived to a welcoming and clean home. The information guide supplied by the home owner was excellent. We had direct access to the home owner which was a plus as well.
Home is located in a quiet area and has excellent access to walking pathway overlooking the river. Home is located within short driving distances around the city.
Participated in a 4 day curling bonspiel in Cochrane. Reserved Jaimie's house for 4 nights. The process for booking was easy, price reasonable and communication was timely and informative. The location was convenient and with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms everyone had enough personal space. The house was clean, well presented and had everything we needed. We would stay there again.
We stayed two nights for a family wedding in Cochrane. This is a lovely family home in a nice quiet residential neighbourhood. It has four bedrooms. The master bedroom has a very large king bed with en suite bathroom. The beds all have foam mattress toppers to make the beds very comfortable. There are fans in most of the rooms to keep cool on hot days. There are three full bathrooms, which is great if you have a lot of people in the home getting dressed up. The water pressure in each of the showers is excellent. Jaime is an attentive host.
We stayed for my brothers wedding in Cochrane this weekend - the house is perfect for a group to stay at. The beds are big, the kitchen was perfect, location was awesome.
This was the perfect stay for our vacation to the mountains and Calgary stampede. A bit of a drive to the mountains but was excellent value as a result and it is a beautiful drive. Comfortable and very clean with tons of amenities. I would highly recommend.
