Property is exactly as advertised. Spotlessly clean with everything you need for a comfortable stay. A very spacious one bedroom apartment. Communication with Jacqueline was prompt and easy. Enjoyed been slightly out of town in the Alphine resort as the natural surroundings were beautiful, private and very peaceful. Would be wonderful to visit again and experience the winter wonderland it must be

We stayed for 6 nights in this location. We were very happy with it compared to what we experienced last year at a different place. It was quite roomy for both of us. Lots of little extras were included which we were not accustomed to in other places. The rooms were extra clean and you could tell the owners took pride with their place. A small BBQ on the patio was perfect. Coffee pods supplied which never happens elsewhere !! When we had a couple of questions we texted the owners and got immediate responses which was great. We would recommend a stay at this location over and over

Great place to stay at Fernie Alpine. We were there off season so super quiet. The accommodations were excellent. Very clean and comfortable. Well stocked kitchen and the small patio with a bbq was really nice. Short and scenic drive to town was as advertised - about 7 minutes.

We had a great experience at this VRBO property. The space was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The location was perfect—quiet and peaceful, yet close to everything we wanted to explore. We experienced a minor issue during check in but this was resolved efficiently. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great place to unwind!
