About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Get away from the city life and go get some fresh air in the real country

Property abuts trail systems that go everywhere, located directly behind the well known Bishops hotel and a 2 minute walk to Bishops gas/store.. Turn key location, you are close to it all,,, Terrific Restaurants, Stores, Gas stations, Recreational Registration Location, Hardware store, and some of the best taken care of Trails… Jackman has it all, including a great Recreational Motorsport location 5 minutes away…
The house is very comfortable and well taken care of, and I would appreciate it being kept that way and you will always be welcome back😁… No smoking inside plz… Sleeps 6 with plenty of closet space, washer and dryer (supplies are not provided), large common areas with television wifi cable, full kitchen w/ stove, fridge, micro, toaster oven.. Heat and window a/c.. We share a driveway with neighbor (so please be mindful of them) but it is plenty big to fit 2 trailers and 2 full-size trucks.. Plowing is provided by contractor when needed, but the main entrance stairs are renters responsibility so no one gets hurt…
“Important” weather does what ever it wants in Jackman, so weather conditions are not a sufficient reason to last minute cancel, early departure, or not show up and hold owner responsible at any time.. Thank you for your consideration…
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine and a coffee maker.

Family Get Away

This was a great pick for our family. We were in the area to ride wheelers and everything was right there. Easy to get to gas and we were right by the trails. Plenty of room for all who went to crash after a long day of riding.
