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!

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.

A group of 7 of us stayed at this property and all had nothing but good things to say!! The beds were super comfy and the house was very well stocked with lots of thoughtful extras. Beautiful location right across from the river. The sauna was a huge hit with the group!

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.
