Great winter hideaway
Unit is as advertised, clean, and nice location. It was too bad the weather did not cooperate as it has been a mild winter, so skating on the lake, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing were unavailable, but unit is centrally located so we could drive to panorama and Kimberly for snow. Kitchen was well equipped but lacked a set of oven mitts so made using oven tricky. Aisling was great with communication and rec center with pool, hot tub, exercise equipment and games was a definite bonus. Would love to stay again when winter was more cooperative.
