Our objective in establishing this new bed and breakfast has been to enjoy meeting new people and to introduce them to the many outdoor adventures that the Slocan Valley and the West Kootenays have to offer. As you are ending your stay with us we encourage you to leave a few comments in the Guests book on your West Kootenays experience.
Our experience has been extremely positive, and it seems that our guests have felt the same way, too. Here are the kindly remarks our growing group of friends have left in our Guests book:
