A charming Heritage cottage in a quiet peaceful location. Easy check in and check out and the host was very quick to respond to any questions we had. We were delighted with a farm tour and the chance to visit the alpaca on the property. The kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans and dishes to prepare your own meals if you choose. I look forward to staying there again soon.

Unfortunately, our arrival was on a very hot day; there was no air conditioning, only fans. Sleep was difficult in the heat even with the fans.

We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful heritage cottage in Salmon Arm! The cottage has so much charm and character, with a lovely blend of historic appeal and cozy comforts. It was the perfect place to relax, unwind, and enjoy our time away.The check-in and check-out process was quick and seamless, with clear instructions provided ahead of time. The beds were comfortable, and the kitchen was well-equipped with everything you could need to prepare a meal. There were also plenty of cozy seating areas and lots of chairs, making it easy to relax and enjoy the space.What made our stay especially memorable was the wonderful hospitality of our hosts. They were so friendly and welcoming, and they generously offered us a tour of their farm and property. We got to meet all the animals, including alpacas, roosters, cattle, and their farm dogs. It was such a unique and enjoyable experience that made our visit extra special with Max (one of the dogs) joining us on the tour!As if that wasn't enough, they also kindly left us fresh eggs and garlic from the farm, which was such a thoughtful touch. We liked the garlic so much that we bought 5 lbs to take home. These little gestures really showed how much they care about making their guests feel welcome.We happily recommend this special place to anyone looking for a charming cottage stay with a genuine farm experience. We would absolutely love to return!

Perfect quiet get away

Perfect spot that’s quiet to enjoy a nice bbq with friends and relax but still close to the town and lake. We loved the proximity to Larch Hills for the trail system for mountain biking and hiking options. They have an awesome little farm with different fresh options to order, saves you a trip to the grocery .

Beautiful heritage country charm

Loved the heritage and country charm. The home was well equipped, the beds were comfortable and the setting was wonderful. The location was just a few minutes from everything. Brandon was a great host and we would definitely want to stay again.

Absolutely Wonderful Stay!

Staying at the heritage cottage at Forget Me Not Farm was by far one of the best parts of our trip. From the moment we walked in the door, we knew we had found something special. The cottage is full of charm and history - with antique furnishing to explore and interesting artwork throughout. Everything was well-equipped (right down to a full kitchen!) and the beds were very comfortable. Brandon and his family are super great hosts - don't hesitate ask for a tour of the farm if you have time during your stay. We enjoyed our stay immensely and we'll definitely be returning.

The hardest part was finding the right place but having the photo surely helped! The cottage was quaint and very comfortable. The host was very responsive to me and provided what was needed for our comfort. We would stay again.

Quaint & cozy

Beds were very comfortable and the porch/sunroom in the morning was lovely. The host went above and beyond to get something back to me that I accidentally left behind. The road nearby was a little noisy but my earplugs blocked the noise out with no problems.

It was a unique experience, staying in a historical property. The cottage was so well preserved, and Brandon's family took such care in sharing its history. We didn't miss that it didn't have a tv, that was great incentive to actually share time with each other.The highway noise was high during the day, but once the Hwy 1 work is completed, this should improve to more peaceful level.

Step back in time.

Cannot say how much we enjoyed our stay here. The house has been preserved much as it was built and we loved that part so much! Brandon and his family were always there for any questions we had. Check in and out was no problem. Easy 5 stars and a must stay anytime we are in the Salmon Arm area.
