8/10 Good
"The restaurant was only just ok. We waited about 10 minutes for a server even though many were walking by our table. I finally had to ask who our server was and then she came over. The pork Vindalo was not very spicy and lacked flavour. At breakfast they served tater tots instead of hash browns."

"The property is absolutely breathtaking but close to the hwy. The “loft” is quite low (about 4’9”) with a steep staircase to navigate. The wifi is very sporadic and note that the water is boil only. The hosts were lovely though."

"We had a wonderful stay! Meleana was an excellent host. With the wildfires in BC, she kept us updated on the smoke conditions every day or two leading up to our stay, which we really appreciated. The property is in a great location, close to Kaslo, waterfalls, the beach and the hot springs. We really enjoyed out time there."
