This is a beautiful log home in a great location at Fernie Alpine Resort. The home furnishings are well appointed - furniture, bedding/tons of towels and bed linens/extra pillows provided; kitchen appliances- Sub Zero fridge, Heartland gas range and another wall oven in the island, Monogram microwave, kitchen aid mixer etc. There is a separate area in the kitchen that functions as a bar- sink/wine and beverage fridge, which is a nice addition to the space. There is ample seating in the living area, a large dining room table, and a small tv beside the fireplace. It would have been nice for the home to have a small collection of board games etc. The kitchen cabinets are mounted very high, requiring a step stool to access anything above the first couple shelves so if you are shorter than 5 ft 6”, plan to use the stool to reach into the cabinets to reach the glasses/dinnerware etc.
The home was a good size for two families of 4. The outdoor space had a table large enough for 12 to be seated for a meal conveniently located right off of the kitchen, a fire table and Weber bbq, as well as Adirondack chairs to seat 6. We did have to request a propane tank as there was not one at the house when we checked in so were unable to use the fire table on the first night. We stayed at the house during a heat wave with temps up to 35c- take note that this home does not have air conditioning or ceiling fans. They did provide a handful of fans but the house was still quite warm, especially the main and second level. We brought along a portable a/c unit which helped a lot… not sure we could have tolerated the warmth in the house had we not brought it along. Upon check in, the home was very dusty (floors, hard surfaces through the house and outdoors). We did communicate with the management company, and the individual was very prompt at replying. The communication was very clear including the emails sent prior to the stay with check in directions etc. We definitely enjoyed our stay. We have spent a lot of time in the Fernie area over the past 20 years, and are very familiar with the mountain and this location is certainly great for both summer and winter stays!
