About this house rental
Ski Fernie, fly fish on the Elk River, hike or bike the many scenic mountain trails, while staying in town.
This large home is located in the Annex directly across from the Elk River. Recently, a new playground has been built for kids and adults directly across the road. The dike along the river and to Maiden Lake has been paved for multi-use. After spending your day exploring the big outdoors, walk to downtown or snuggle up in the living room by the cozy natural gas fireplace.
Built with European craftsmanship, this lovely home is designed to accommodate up to 8 guests, a great retreat for families. The separate entrance and enclosed porch allows for easy on/off ski equipment and storage.
There is also an outside rack to lock up your bikes.
The house is ideally located on a corner lot across from the Annex Park, where you can easily access trails for bikes, skateboards, cross country skiing and snow shoeing; and in the warmer months there is premier fly fishing and rafting a short walk away. No need to mount and transport your bike since the Fernie Alliance Trail System connects to the River trail, literally 10 metres away.
Fernie has a spectacular 18-hole golf course and country club dining. The aquatic centre is open for swimming and has its own hot tub and steam room, but we think you will prefer staying "home" to relax in the private hot tub and in-house sauna. Ice skating can be found on the ponds, outdoor rink or in the arena where you can cheer for our hometown Ghostriders.
Alpine skiers can either take the shuttle or drive 10 minutes to Fernie Alpine Resort where you will find the best powdered trails in the East Kootenays.
This house has been coined by the locals as 'The Lighthouse' since there is an enclosed widow's watch or turret showcases a breathtaking and panoramic view of the mountains and ski hill. Watch the sun rise and set as the mountains cast legendary shadows on their bald fronts, or observe the migratory paths of animals across the Lizard Range and Mount Fernie through the spotting scope.

We had a really nice stay for two families (4 adults, 4 kids). The house is just off a nice walking trail and close to the mountain, and the kitchen and bedrooms were well stocked and furnished. Sauna and hot tub were awesome for night time wind down. Highly recommended!

Convenient location in town close to everything we needed. The place was clean, comfortable, with the amenities we needed for our trip. We are already looking forward to next year.

Had a great stay at this property for 5 guests on a ski trip to Fernie. The house is very large and spacious and a bit eclectic. Kitchen is stocked for pretty much anything you could imagine. Even a proper tray for baguettes. Large open living room and dining room with fireplace make it great for relaxing/game night. The back entrance is perfect for skis and boots. This is also where the sauna is and exit to the hot tub. Very nice the house was stocked with trash bags and paper towel as this can be rare with rentals.
While the washer and dryer happened to be on the fritz, the host was great with communication and helping give solutions to have any clothes washed/dried while we were there. Parking was ample and salt provided for the snow that did fall for the stairs. There are 2 showers and the master has a tub with a shower wand. The master also has a balcony to "lord over" the main living room.
The turret was great to get 360 mountain views. The house was about a 15-20 min walk to the downtown area but all streets are well lit. Would recommend and stay again.

We could not have been happier with our stay. The home is beautiful, and the accommodations were perfect for our group of friends. We all love to cook, and the kitchen had everything we needed and was fun to work in. We had other friends staying in the area who joined us for dinner, and we especially liked the large dining area which was perfect for a game night. We hope to make a return visit to fish the Elk River and enjoy the beautiful area.

Every year five of us sisters try to book a runaway together. This house was perfect for us! Lots of room, bathrooms, and amenities! We even went saskatoon picking across the street. Wonderful! Cannot say enough about the accomodations and how well it was prepared for our use!

We had a wonderful time staying at this house. It was just minutes from downtown Fernie and the ski slope It was beautiful, and comfortable inside. The fireplace, sauna and hot tub were all perfect for some warm relaxation after some wintry days. The house had everything we needed and the hosts we're very welcoming and communicative. We all can't wait to go back and stay there again!

My family and I (6 total) stayed at Mike and Nan’s for a week during the Christmas holidays. We had everything we needed right at the house to make us feel like we were at home. A hot tub with an amazing view of the mountains and a sauna to take the chill off after a day outside in the winter. The hosts provided a welcome
bottle of wine and even decorated for Christmas. It was small touches like these that made us feel welcomed and comfortable. Nan was great at staying in touch with us and we had a smooth visit. The location was perfect- walking distance to downtown and groceries and right next to the river for beautiful walks along the dyke.
I highly recommend Mike and Nan’s to stay for a large group who want to have a comfortable and relaxing stay in Fernie. There were days we didn’t even have to leave the house because we had all we needed.
Thank you for Ana amazing stay NaN and Mike!!!!!

We used the home as a base for Elk River fishing. It was ideal. Short walk to the fly shop, restaurants, the river, other essentials (liquor store) and the property was beautiful. See you next year. Grant

This house was awesome! Lots of space, immaculate condition. It came with lots of stuff including shampoo, conditioner, body wash, a kettle and books and more. And the turret was amazing. Great location next to river with lots of running/walking trails.

Myself and six adult friends spent a week at this gorgeous location. There was space for everyone, comfortable beds, large bathrooms, comfortable hot tub.. All-in-all, we didn't want for anything! The kitchen was large and spacious and many different appliances and amenities were provided. The drive to the ski hill was minimal, and we were able to walk to a few different restaurants although "downtown" Fernie was a bit of a longer walk away. The host, Nan, was very responsive throughout the whole booking and stay process which was extremely helpful. We would be looking to stay here again as our #1 choice if the opportunity to return comes up!

Great to walk along the lake to Main Street. The house was equipped with so much and all the little touches made the stay so much better. Our hosts had thought of this with all the comforts of home..
