The restaurant was nice with great food. The rooms were pet friendly and pets were welcome on the outdoor patio. There are no street lights there which made for fantastic star gazing. Owners were friendly hard working people.

We were surprised to have live music at the outdoor patio, but it was great and they have a full schedule of performers available for the entire summer. The room was large and clean, but the sloping ceiling was a challenge in places. It was almost impossible to spit into the bathroom sink without cracking your head on the glass shelf above it. Most concerning was the absence of a smoke alarm. The mounting plate was on the ceiling, but the smoke detector was gone! I’m not entirely sure that’s even legal. Staff were pleasant and the food was good.

Due to the extreme heat, the air conditioner was struggling to keep the room cool. Otherwise, an enjoyable stay. The restaurant is highly recommended.

Due to an unfortunate circumstance, we weren't able to enjoy staying in the guest house which looked adorable. We did; however, spend time at the property for the breakfast, pizza night and live music. The property, the wine, the owners and staff were lovely. We look forward to returning for a stay. Such a great vibe! That is worth 5-stars.

We found the staff to be friendly and responsive. Our room, which was not that large, had a sunroof with no blind which meant early wake-ups and at times an uncomfortable room due to a warm temperature. They baked fresh items such as breads and pies daily that were very good and had live entertainment on a Thursday evening when were there.

The place was very quaint. Thank goodness for air conditioning as the room was very hot upstairs. Also, there is a skylight in the room which has no cover of any type so the room is lit up very early in the morning. If you prefer darkness and sleeping in, it would be difficult. The breakfast included consisted of sliced deli meat and cheese and bread and 2 hard boiled eggs. My husband would have preferred a hot breakfast with a couple of fried eggs but that is just his preference.

We just completed our second stay here. It is a convenient stopover between Vancouver and the interior (the reason for our first visit). Also, it's only 45 minutes from Nickel Plate nordic ski area (the reason for our second visit). The property is in a quiet location, easy to access off the highway, the rooms are basic, but clean and comfortable, and best of all - the continental breakfast which includes freshly baked bread & buns is hearty and fantastic.

Underwhelming for the price. We had read positive reviews about the dining, but not offering dinner when we arrived, and breakfast was continental - ok, but not as anticipated from on-line reviews. Just so-so an experience to be honest.

The Crowsnest guesthouse is a little gem nestled just outside the Keremeos. It has THE BEST baked goods. The guesthouse is also cosy and comfortable, great for a one night stay. You can sample a few wineries in the area and enjoy a feast at the restaurant before staggering up the stairs to bed.

This was a quaint little surprise on our trip. Rooms quite European which we loved. Loved coffee, tea on table in hallway. Loved having water pitcher in rooms to fill from water tank in hallway eliminating plastic bottles. Breakfast was just amazing! Only negative was dinner meals looked so good on website and we were looking forward to a great selection. We arrived to find it was pizza night. No other options. Pizza was great but not what we were wanting so beware the night you stay to see what they are offerring as there are other restaurants in Keremeos you can eat at.

Thank you for your review. We have only pizza and appetizers on fridays in the summer because we have usually about 120-140 people here and there is a labour shortage in canada which effects everybody and we just can not handle 2 kitchens at that amount. We are sorry for that and maybe can do better next year.

Road trip with Jade
Lovely stay, close to the Okanagan Valley but far enough removed from the busyness. Thoroughly enjoyed the laid back comfort in which I could come and go, adjust to my dog Jade's needs, stay up as late as I wished. I stayed for 5 nights - 2 in the regular room and 3 in the large. Both rooms are excellent - for a longer stay, I suggest the large one. It was bright, felt like a studio apartment minus a kitchen - very cozy to come "home" to. Thanks!

In addition to the fine hospitality, wine, and food, great location and opportunities for outdoor recreation, I'd like to add one more observation: the Crowsnest Burger is a work of art and one of the best you will find anywhere. Five stars!
