Older home with awesome decor and a well appointed kitchen. Lovely living room with games & DVDs The only downside was the beds are both doubles.
Cute old place spruced up just right for visitors. Everything we needed was right there including a sweet location perfect for an early morning or evening walk.
We had a small issue getting the TV/DVD player going but our host was on it like a shot!
All communication with him was fast and easy. My friends only had one complaint and that was the not terribly comfortable double mattress placed on a queen frame. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay and will return next time we want to spend a few nights in that neck of the woods.
We enjoyed having a comfortable spot close to ski trails at Riding Mountain. This spot is a bit rustic, but comfortable and just the right size and location. The kitchen is great, and the bedrooms upstairs are very cozy.

Nice comfy corner lot with a view of the sunsets, close to Clear Lake, the Trans Canada Trail and town amenities.
We enjoyed reading the books Zach provided and were surprised to find an authentic windmill in Erickson
The cottage was exactly as described and met all our needs. Zach was very helpful and quick to respond throughout the process. Would definitely recommend and will very likely return in the near future
We had a great time staying at this house. It’s clean, perfect space, things that we need during our stay are there. There’s a grocery store 2 blocks away. We like the backyard because of the bonfire. We slept really good because the bed was so comfy. Close to Riding Mountain Park, 15-min drive. Communication with Weston was good, clear and quick response. We will definitely stay here again.

This property has potential but needs improvements. There were twin mattresses on both queen framed beds.
We like to hike. Clear Lake is a 15 minute drive. The Trans Canada Trail is across the street. Weston and his brother met us at the house and gave us a quick tour. I like to bird watch. Plenty of birds in the area. The gas station and grocery store is a couple of blocks away. Nice big quite back yard with lots of trees.
All good from start to finish. Had everything you needed.

Beautiful and peaceful little place
My family and I had such a great time there. We loved the rustic charm of the house. A really good spot to go to if you need a break from the busyness of the city. This location is really close to riding mountain, so we had tones of fun things to do.
The property was cozy and well-equipped inside - a perfect place to hide out and forget all our responsibilities. We are an older couple, and fortunately quite fit as we were not aware of the very treacherous stairs leading to the bedrooms, and getting down to the bathroom at nights safely was a challenge. I think it would be important to state that the bathroom and bedrooms are on separate floors.
Also, the microwave was located dangerously high - even for my tall partner. Definitely needs to be moved. The housekeeping was adequate but could have been a little cleaner. the yard was a mess. Also, I would not advertise a firepit that doesn't exist, or at least not in any usable, safe form unless you want the house burnt down. There are no screens on the windows except for a small one in the front door and two tiny ones in the bedroom windows. I think it would be uninhabitable in the warm weather unless the downstairs windows are screened or it was air-conditioned. We were grateful that it was cool when we were there.
We would probably rent again in cool/cold weather as we loved the relaxed ambience and the owner was delightful and very helpful. We had a wonderful time.
We enjoyed our week-long stay in this home, surrounded by natural beauty. The house was quiet, rustic, and loaded with character. Zach was very responsive and helpful when we had questions.
Perfect location to Riding Mountain and surrounding areas. Well equipped Kitchen and so much things to do even just staying inside the house. Have a grocery store, bakery, eatery nearby and easy to get what we need. Owner is very responsive and helpful too. Will definitely stay here again.
Zackary was very responsive when we had a bit of difficulty with the WiFi. The house itself reminds me of and old farmhouse, a bit rustic with some good upgrades. It has a well equipped kitchen and everything works well. The yard has nice potential but spring cleanup had not been done yet.
We had to alter our departure time and try and arrive a bit ahead of a snow storm; Zach was VERY accommodating and gracious in all our dealings. Communications were timely and always courteous and helpful. It is an older cabin concept, so set your expectations to enjoy a step back in time. Again, host was awesome to work with on any questions or items to discuss.
The house was clean and inviting, with great amenities and a full kitchen, Internet and more.
Great time at this property in Erickson. Relaxing, fun and a beautiful house with all one could ask for in a weekend rental. Very close to Riding Mountain National Park for hiking, fire pit for hanging out at night, full kitchen with everything one would need, and the host is very flexible and excels in communication with renters. Overall a very positive experience and would definitely go back.
My friend and I stayed here and enjoyed every minute of it. We like to cook so we were please with the kitchen, and of course with having a coffee maker. The yard is homey and would have been good for a fire if it hadn't been so wet when we visited. Very nice stay!
Blessed to have a place to be with family away from home . Unique place to stay

This old house has rustic charm with excellent upgrades making it very comfortable. It has a picturesque view, located in a small town close to a national park with many outdoor activity choices.
This was a perfect stay! Zach was extremely helpful and easy to communicate with. The house had everything I needed and included a beautiful view and lovely location.
I would definitely stay here again, thanks Zach!
Quiet cozy stay near Riding Mountain National Park
Zach made the check-in process friendly and easy for us. The living spaces were all clean and tidy. We had everything we needed to make a Thanksgiving dinner. Overall, it was a great stay and we look forward to coming back again.
