Cozy cabin in charming Cypress Hills with WiFi
Welcome to The Starlit Burrow in the Cypress Hills, Alberta!
This 624 sq ft cabin comfortably accommodates 2 people, with one queen size bed and a sofa bed in the living room. The cabin is fully equipped with a kitchen, bathroom, indoor wood-burning fireplace, wi-fi internet, and a smart TV.
You can enjoy the beautiful views and sounds of the Cypress Hills from the deck, or explore the Cypress Hills Interprovincial Park and nearby lakes.
The house is on a private 2 acres of land, directly bordered by Cypress Hills Interprovincial Park to the West and South and the Highway 41 to the East. It is a comfortable space that offers everything you need for a relaxing stay. Enjoy the warmth of the indoor wood-burning fireplace, the natural light from the big windows, and the spacious deck with panoramic views of the sky, stars and landscape. On a clear night, you can see the Milky Way, shooting stars, and maybe even the Northern Lights.
This space has wi-fi internet and a Roku smart TV so you can binge your favourite shows, or you can curl up and read the newest book release next to a cozy fire in the wood-burning fireplace. There is a full kitchen that has a fridge, freezer, stove, oven, air fryer and microwave. Other kitchen necessities include pots/pans, spices, and a traditional coffee maker (or a french press) to accompany our complimentary coffee, tea assortment, and hot chocolate. All of the water available inside the home is purified through a rigorous reverse-osmosis and UV-light system, so you don't need to bring any with you.
The cabin features one private bedroom with a queen bed, one spare room to set up a 31"x75" cot if needed, and a pull-out sofa if you doze off while watching a show. The full bathroom has a shower only.
The cabin is heated from a conventional central furnace controlled by a digital, easy-to-use, wall-mounted thermostat. The wood fireplace can be used to make the cabin extra toasty inside.
The outdoor space features a large, south facing deck that is perfect for morning yoga, or for stargazing on a cloudless night. There is an outdoor firepit, adirondack chairs, and a picnic table for your outdoor lounging and dining. We supply some firewood to start you off, but if you like a big outdoor fire, please bring your own firewood, or you can purchase firewood from the nearby Elkwater townsite during the camping season.
In spring and winter, it’s best if your vehicle has 4 wheel or all wheel drive, as the driveway slope can be a little challenging without them.
Besides the resident owl, some visitors include other bird and deer traversing the property. During the summertime, there may be cows grazing in the field West and South of the property. They are early risers and like to let the world know that.
We have 3 security cameras on the property for security purposes. 1 on the shop facing East monitoring the driveway and gate. 1 on the residence facing North monitoring the sidewalk. 1 on the residence facing West that monitors the front door. They record video and audio but will not be monitored during your stay.
The detached shop to the north of the cabin is locked for the owners' private use.
We welcome dogs as we know they are part of the family! We can only welcome dogs at this time due to owner allergies to other animals. We provide 2 clean, dog food dishes, 1 water dish, some poop bags and blankets to cover the couch and bed as we know they love to cuddle, but please use the blankets provided for the furniture. Please do not leave your pets unattended or unsecured in the residence. Please also pick up after your dog, and bring your own leashes and/or tie outs.
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a fireplace, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.
