We stayed for the Calgary Stampede and had a wonderful time. It was cleaned, stocked very well and had plenty of room for 6 of us. I enjoyed the hot tub each morning!
We had a wonderful stay at Pam's place in Cochrane! The house was beautiful, clean, and the outdoor patio with the hot tub was a great addition. We would visit again!
What a great location for our boys golf trip!!!! Very easy to get to hiway if golfing in Canmore the house was perfect. Would for sure stay again as Cochrane is a great town!
a lovely home with good appointments, and a STUNNING view from the kitchen or deck of the cochrane cityscape and the âhillâ. Barbecue and hot tub are bonus features we used (at 0 degrees C). Location is fine, no busy traffic, and only 5-7 minutes from the center of town. Local transit a short walk away, but limited by the Cochrane schedule, not location. We added time, and Pam and the housekeepr made it work for us. Recommend!!!!!
Very clean and spacious for 4 people. They have everything needed to be more than comfortable. The sheets on the bed were so soft, even with AC there were fans stored in each bedroom closet that you could plug in as the upstairs stayed quite a bit warmer with 30+ temps. You can tell they take great pride in this property, we truly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend.
This was the perfect place for us while we stayed in Cochran. There was a lot of space to spread out and it already had a lot of amenities for us to use. We took advantage of the hot tub, outdoor fireplace and the bbq. We were able to make dinner and relax with family as if it was our own home. Would definitely stay there again when we visit Cochran again.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and Chris was an excellent host. The house was well laid out, with all the amenities one needs. Just felt like we were at home, sure beats staying in a hotel. Perfect for our Family get together and a great location. Thank you Chris.

Perfect a family of five. We had everything we needed. The place had the right space for my three boys to sleep and their own chilled time. The hot tub was perfect for our long days hiking the Alberta mountains. The only thing to be aware of is the subdivision is booming so lots of construction noise. For us we only heard when we were not hiking. Pam was very responsive in communication which helped to get us going in the beginning of our stay. The views from the place for us were amazing but then again we come from the flatlands. Thank you Pam for making our trip easy to feel like home.
Pros: This home was nice and clean and was the size we needed for our family. Well stocked. Glad we could park in driveway since there was no street parking due to so many cars already parked. Good location close to highway.
Cons: Loud very busy neighborhood. Construction also going on behind the house which was loud. Photos are not accurate as I feel that they showed a quieter neighborhood. While the house was well stocked, a lot of the containers of bathroom products were almost empty. There was a loufah in the master bath (I don't want to use someone else's loufah!). The pantry was well stocked as well and while this was great, there were several expired items noted. Wished we would have known that the hot tub was only available until 10pm before booking as we didn't return in time from hiking on 2 of our 3 nights to use it. Lastly, and probably the most important for us, the water pressure in the showers was terrible. For a family with 5 females with thick hair, this was awful. We couldn't get the shampoo/conditioner out of our hair well at all.
Nice spacious duplex, pretty modern too, upper and lower deck with sectionals on each, hot tub and outdoor fireplace was a nice touch for cool evenings. Nice view and quiet community.
Neighbor's are not happy when you park on the public street so if you have more than 1 vehicle, there will be a problem! There is only 1 parking spot on the driveway as this is a duplex and there is no parking inside the garage although the listing states there is. Garage is locked from renters using it.
The fireplace on the main floor does not work. There is a strong musty smell upon walking up to the 2nd floor. It comes from the washer. The door of the washer needs to be left open 24/7. Owner is aware to use Tide Washing Machine Cleaner repeatedly and to leave the door of the washer open 24/7.
There is no cable on the tvâs. We love watching our daily news but could not. There is a smart tv with an assortment of shows from Vancouver.
The shower head in the master ensuite lacked in water pressure. This was noted on a previous review. Shower head needs to be replaced.
Owner Pamal was very responsive to messages and answered quickly. That was very much appreciated.
The home was very clean on the whole. Baseboards in the bathrooms need cleaning as well as hand marks on the walls and scuff marks on the walls need tending too. Also the stainless steel sink in the kitchen should be bleached to remove the black coffee stains around the sink drain. Otherwise it was perfect.
I would like to thank Pamal for allowing my family and I to stay at her home. It was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. The location was superb as we were close to town and very close to Highway 1. I recommend this house to anyone who is looking for a stay in Cochrane, Alberta.
Pam was a superb, very responsive host. There were issues with the hot tub before we had arrived and Pam had already made sure a rental hot tub was provided before we showed up while the original was repaired.
Great location if youâd like a bigger place for exploring the Bow valley / Banff.
