The River House is a secluded cabin nestled between the Purcell Mountains and the Blaeberry River.

The River House is a two bedroom cabin, which sleeps 4 adults and 2 children. It has a full kitchen, fireplace, hot tub, t.v. with streaming, blue-ray, internet and laundry facilities.

The River House is located on 8 acres of wooded land and is the only rental cabin on the property. The other house on the property is ours. You can wake up every morning and while eating breakfast watch a majestic scene of the Blaeberry River.

The River House boasts peace and quiet, but for those that are looking for adventure, the House also includes the use of the 'shed'. In the shed there is a place to store and clean your equipment, which includes skis, bikes, sleds, ATVs, and all other equipment you may bring with you.

Comments from our Guest book

We thoroughly enjoyed the Riverhouse! Tranquility!! Wish we could bottle it and take it home. Minnesota USA

What amazing cottage! Thank you for your hospitality Alberta CDN

Rocky Mountain heaven on earth! We adventured from Glacier National Park to Banff and back, but out favorite views were in our own backyard! The memories made here will be in our thoughts for years to come. Saskatchewan, CDN

Thanks so much! What a perfect place to spend vacation away from crowds we loved sitting on the deck watching the eagles and seeing deer in the backyard. The cabin is fabulous and was everything we needed. Thanks so much for making this a perfect vacation Florida, USA

River house cottage was everything we hoped for and more. A beautiful location and wonderful cottage. You were great hosts as were Lola & Sally. We have all thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to come back one day. Thank you for making it so relaxed and easy. England

Thanks so much River House! We had an excellent stay here. The house and location is beautiful! We enjoyed eating dinner at the picnic table and using the fire pit to toast marshmallows. We also really enjoyed watching the humming birds fly in and out to the feeder. We were able to get a couple of pictures. We appreciated the list of hikes and activities you gave to us, and thanks for being such welcoming hosts. Philadelphia USA

    This place was so much more than we were expecting! Just what we needed. Peaceful, quiet and so beautiful inside and outside. Beds were so comfortable we all slept better than we had in ages. We wanted snow for Christmas and wow, we got it! Beautiful. We were pleasantly surprised owners had even gone above and beyond with lights, decorations and yes, a Christmas tree! Highly recommend staying here, we will be back in the summer!

    We had a great few days away from the city. Even when rainy, there are games, toys, movies and an Xbox to keep you (or the kids) entertained. Having the river right in your backyard was definitely a highlight. Beds and linens were very comfortable. We had everything we needed, definitely the most well stocked place we have ever rented. Thank you for being such great hosts, looking forward to visiting again sometime in the future.

    My friend and I enjoyed our stay at the river house. Cabin was comfortable and clean. Had everything we needed. Beautiful drive coming in. One night the power went out for several hours and the hosts graciously shared their dinner with us. Very private. Just a short stroll through trees to the river. Great base for visiting the national parks. Would definitely recommend. Just be prepared for mosquitoes!

    We really felt away from it all here. Peaceful, beautiful surroundings. Host friendly and welcoming and had set up the fire pit ready for us and fresh eggs available too. We only stayed 2 nights and had planned to go out for the day but changed our minds and just spent the day relaxing around the cabin. Saw the beavers and other wildlife as well as the cows and chickens! We would stay here again.

    Antionette and Grant have a beautiful cottage near Golden BC. It is out in the country but is close to so many National and Provincial Parks you never are at a loss for something to do. We visited in May and appreciated the fireplace, and hot tub. The beds are super comfortable and the owners have two lovely dogs that can visit it you like.

    Our stay at Antoinette and Grant was absolutely fabulous. The cabin was really clean and neat. Thank you Grant for introducing me to playing horseshoes. The scenery and nature walks was rejuvenating and we feel well rested after our stay. I am hesitant to recommend anyone to stay here as I will not be able to get a booking to go back there.... ;-) But seriously, you need to do yoyrself the favour and go visit Grant and Antoinette. There lovely two dogs will make you feel right at home as well

    The cabin is very beautiful, cozy and tastefully decorated and offers a great view into the garden and over the mountains. We had a wonderful time there, enjoying a barbecue, reading and soaking in the hot tub after hiking in the nearby national parks.

    We had a wonderful stay in Golden. The property was lovely. It was spotless and very comfortable. We saw so much nature in the area. If you are looking for some quiet seclusion, but close to lots of activities (we did rafting, paragliding, canoeing, and visited the golden skybridge, a buffalo ranch and the world's largest paddle!), then this is just perfect.

    We enjoyed this peaceful, lovely home in Golden. You can feel the breeze and hear the sound of the river and birds in the morning, making you stay home and enjoy your morning coffee. The place boasts of its surroundings, mountains, and rivers. The RiverHouse is clean, well equipped with what you will be needing to feel you are at home. The backyard is big and we enjoyed playing volleyball in the afternoon. We enjoyed the private hot tub at night. The place is close to downtown where you can visit local restaurants and bakeries. We got to enjoy our small trip to Golden Farmer's Market on a Wednesday packed with fresh fruits and vegetables, honey, and many enjoyable local products. We also enjoyed our trips to Thompson Falls and many places in Yoho National Park. Antoinette and Grant were so great with responding right away when we had questions. The map and directions sent to us were so helpful in finding this secluded home. Thank you both for letting us stay and enjoy your place. Highly recommended and we will return to Riverhouse, for sure!

    We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful cabin. The cabin had everything we needed and was well cared for. We appreciated the hosts keeping us informed before our stay regarding the Canadian wildfires. Antoinette went out of her way to be sure we had everything we needed and were happy. We recommend this property!

    We enjoyed our stay immensely. The cabin was as described and Antoinette was a great host. There was a widespread power outage on our first night and she loaned us a cooler packed with lunch and beverages to take with us. Wildfires were getting close near the end of our trip and she kept us updated on road conditions for our trip back to Calgary. We enjoyed the peaceful serenity of the location. It is a great base if you want to explore Glacier as well as Yoho & Banff. We enjoyed walks along the river bed, the hot tub after long days of hiking and exploring the town of Golden as well. Would definitely stay again if we decide to return to the area.

    We had a lovely, relaxing vacation at this property. The cabin was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. It is about 20 minutes out of Golden but we loved coming back to our quiet surroundings. Cabin had good wi-fi. There was a rare heat wave the week we stayed and the cabin had no A/C but floor fans helped and it cooled way down at night so sleeping was very comfortable. The locals in Golden were very kind and we found it to be low key Banff with high adventure and without the crowds. We would come back again and stay and this property.
