Summary: The property was larger than anticipated and very pretty. We loved the views! It had everything we needed for a very enjoyable Thanksgiving weekend. We even rented a boat from Jones Boys Boats in Ainsworth and had a great day out on Kootenay Lake.

Summary: We had an amazing time at lake cabin. The place was clean and comfortable. The view from the lake was beautiful. We spent plenty of our time by the water/dock. Balfour ferry and amenities were just a few minutes away by foot or even just paddle/kayak there. We definitely recommend this place and we plan to stay there again on our next getaway. Thank you Jill, you have a beautiful place.

Summary: The first time we came to Jill's in 2020 we didn't stay long. We were so impressed with the whole place that we knew we had to come back and stay longer so we did. Everything you needed was there. The cottage was warm and cozy and clean. The yard and views of the mountains also awesome. We had an enjoyable 14 days and hope to come again. Thank you Jill
