★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It was totally good place for rest with kind owner and if you are horse fan you can find many historical equipment to watch like museum but you can not find any fun unless you create for youself.The hottub was not clean and we didn't use it, also most of power plug especially in kitchen was out of power for technical issue . There was not also any horse for show or riding unless you go and find some around!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We were interested in this venue and sent a $1000 deposit to hold the dates for a few days so we could travel out and check it out. Gerard was of no help once we got there. We were left to basically look at stuff on our own. Due to Covid restrictions we haven't been able to plan a wedding for 150 people and said we would not be needing the dates. We told him this a few days after sending the money and a full year before our intended dates. No co tracts were signed and Gerard refuses to return our deposit. He said if it booked we would get it back…. Well, The venue booked on the days that we were interested in and he still refuses to return our money. Gerard is an absolute nightmare to deal with abs to be honest the venue isn’t really that great to begin with.
After reading the other 1 star reviews I see EXACTLY what they are talking about.
And we are left having to deal with lawyers because of this Horrible horrible horrible experience with these crooks

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Words can't describe the amazing feeling you get when you meet the amazing duo of Gerard and Caio...owners of this truly gorgeous property and all around kind and caring humans. They, together with our amazing team of vendors, helped to make our wedding a once in a lifetime experience for not only my husband and I but also for our family and friends as well.
The minute we drove up to the property we felt a feeling of love that words can't describe. The amazing structures (barn, shelter and cabin), were only made more beautiful by the surrounding mountains, blue sky, and lush forest...truly a magical setting.
No matter the need or want, G & C endeavoured to help make our dreams come true. The vendors that were recommended, the execution of the days leading up to the event, day of support, and the countless hours of communication and advice they gave turned what is typically known to be a stressful time into one we truly enjoyed! We always looked forward to visiting the property during our preparation and our conversations with G & C throughout the process.
To anyone planning an event or looking for a getaway you must consider this incredible place! Not only will your eyes be amazed with the beauty around you, your heart will be full after experiencing the kindness of Gerard and Caio.
10/10 experience, and we will absolutely be coming back as many times as we possibly can :)

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Gerard and Caio are absolutely wonderful to deal with! Some friends of ours got married here over the thanksgiving weekend and it was truly wonderful! I was part of the planning process and visited the property ahead of the event, and they made every aspect of putting this event together an absolute joy for the couple. Their warmth and kindness is unmistakable.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Where to even begin? We had our wedding at House of the Friesians and it could not have possibly been a more perfect weekend. Gerard and Caio (as well as the rest of their family and animals) are some of the most kind and welcoming people we have ever met. Gerard was helpful, welcoming, on top of the details right from the beginning, and always quick to answer our questions. The venue was clean and well organized for us, they were flexible and easy-going, and made us and our friends who stayed on-site feel completely at home for the weekend. Thank you so much Gerard and Caio for making our wedding beautiful, fun, and stress-free!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Seriously amazing place you need to out on your to do list! Cabin has 3 private bedrooms downstairs, each with a double bunk/single top bunk combo. Downstairs also has a bathroom with shower and a furnace. Main floor has the best stocked kitchen you'll come across, beautiful long table, comfy couch area and woodfire stove. Upstairs has an open plan set up with a double bed and two singles. Upstairs looks over the kitchen area too. Entire place has beautiful views from every room, a balcony around the entire cabin and a moose who sometimes stops by to say hello!
A little chilly in winter so we suggest bringing some good slippers and sweaters but overall a simply amazing and stunning place to spend some time!
WiFi, great hot water, no bath but 2 showers, not suitable for people who have trouble with stairs or in wheelchairs, pet friendly, child friendly, rustic, amazing scenery.
We will be back as soon as we can!!!!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The setting speaks for itself. A rustic barn on a working ranch in the middle of the mountains. Though rustic, the rooms are clean and hotel worthy. The owner, Gerard, is one of the best parts about this rental. He bent over backwards for us. When it was clear that it would rain for our wedding, he arranged to have my wife brought through the barn on horse and carriage through the crowd of our guests. When the sky cleared for our photos, he brought a canoe to the lake so we could take pictures there. Our wedding felt casual and intimate. The hand crafted log tables and chairs require minimal decorations to make beautiful. My only warning is that the chairs and tables are very heavy and moving them for the reception and back the next morning is a lot of work and requires many hands to make it easier. Make sure you have scheduled a time for your helpers to be there.
Thank you Gerard for all you did for us to create a wonderful wedding even in the rain.
