A Quiet Escape Arriving at the charming cottage, you’ll immediately feel the pull of nature, inviting you to leave the bustle of modern life behind. This cozy retreat for two offers everything you need to disconnect. Set in peaceful surroundings, the cottage boasts a kitchenette with an induction stove and a medium fridge, while a BBQ grill and pond with a fountain complete the tranquility.
The surrounding woods offer nature walks, stargazing, and a seasonal pool, ideal for unwinding. Policy details, such as a minimum 2-night stay and no pets, will be shared after arrival.
Inside, the cottage is simple and comforting—clean lines, soft light, and everything you need for unrushed days. The kitchenette is made for ease: an induction two burner hot plate for a skillet breakfast, a microwave for quick warm-ups, and a medium fridge with a freezer to stash your groceries. When you arrive, you’ll find a few bare essentials waiting—enough to settle in before a short drive into Jasper for a proper shop at Walmart or Brookshire Brothers. Bring the foods you love; cook at your pace; let mealtime be part of the ritual.
Step outside and the property opens around you. The pond shimmers with a fountain, and if you bring a line, the catch and release fishing is a quiet joy. In season, the swimming pool cools the afternoons, and the nature trails thread through the pines in that soft, resin-scented way the woods have. There’s chopped wood by the BBQ grill for slow, smoky dinners, and a communal fireplace area where conversations stretch and stars feel closer than they did in the city.
If you want more than rest, there’s learning and craft woven into the stay. By the creek, hammock slow and water quiet, a massage can loosen what travel or life has tensed. You can sink your hands into clay in a pottery session

3 nights at THRIVE family camp and RV
THRIVE Family Camp and RV is an absolute gem. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed by the serene beauty of the forest and the warm hospitality of our host, David. The campsite was impeccably clean and well-organized. We especially appreciated the clean bathroom facilities, which made our stay even more comfortable. Davey was most gracious, and we had the place to ourselves. The peaceful atmosphere, combined with the natural surroundings, provided a truly relaxing retreat. We left feeling refreshed and can't wait to return for another tranquil getaway.

Even though I booked at the very last possible minute, David went out of his way to be helpful and accommodating. The site is very rural and secluded and waking up to a rich chorus of songbirds including Hooded and Swainson’s warblers was delightful.

Upon arrival late at night although I gave David a short notice he showed up in the Darkness with his family and showed me around the campsite and made sure that all our questions were answered unfortunately on the second day my girlfriend who isn't a big camper wanted to cut the trip short and David was courteous enough to provide us a refund although he didn't have to we'll definitely consider coming back in the future the campsite was very well organized and clean and easy to locate.
Highly recommended!
