The Cattage - 17 Acres

The entire 17-acre property to yourself! Our serene spot deep in the woods provides endless nature to explore. Our old-fashioned rustic cabin is the perfect place to reconnect and recharge with family and friends. Relax and unwind with the whole family or just the two of you. Our comfy beds and large hot tub will give you the recharge you need. Just bring your slippers!King, queen, 2 sets of bunks and 2 pullouts. Hot tub, trails, bird watching, fire pit, tube TV (plays VHS’, Nintendo), books, board games, yard games, wood burning stove. We have 2 portable air conditioners that work great. We can accommodate up to 10-12 guests ($50/night/guests over 8) with our 2 full/double sized pull out couches but it’s cozy. Please see room descriptions and photos for details. Extra dark outside in the evening for star gazing and catching northern lights. Lots of deer, moose, birds, owls and other animals visit us often. 20 min to Sherwood Park, 40 min to downtown Edmonton. We have a long and narrow winding road/driveway. Also, depending on the weather there can be large puddles on the driveway. We live 30 minutes away but we are available for you anytime. There are groceries close by! However if you need to do full groceries it’s best to go to Sherwood park Walmart/Superstore/Saveon/Sobeys 25 mins away. If you just need a few things:Country Mercantile store/liquor store (very small selection) 6 mins away, Country Boyz (larger selection) 11 mins away. Check out Alberta Parks Website for these parks close by (great trails, kayaking, winter activities):Cooking Lake-Blackfoot Provincial Recreation Area North Cooking Lake Natural AreaHalf moon lake resort 6 minBirch Bay Ranch 10 minStrathcona Wilderness Centre 15 minElk Island 20 min For the couple of resteraunts that are close-ish, always call before to see if they are open.See our guide book for more! Dogs only. Dog must be fully house trained. Lots of coyotes in the area. Our property has a direct path to the "lake". We have had very dry years where there appears to almost be no lake at all. The middle of the "lake" is not deep enough for swimming or kayaking. Half Moon beach resort for swimming and kayaking is a 6 min drive away. Lake Islet is also a good (and free) choice for kayaking. Keep in mind these are Alberta lakes. We have everything you need including firewood, fire pit, fire sticks, and chairs! We have a propane BBQ with propane. Cellphone coverage is very limited and cuts in and out. Best service is on the front step. Wifi works great (we leave it up to you if you want to tell the kids). Tube TV/ VCR for provided movies (popcorn and air popper is in the cabinet top shelf). There are two outdoor cameras, one at the front entrance of the cabin and one at the side entrance.
