About this house rental
This beautiful new home is the second situated on the shore of Payne Lake just outside of Mountain View, Alberta and within 10 minutes from the entrance to Waterton National Park. Perfect for a couple wanting to get away or a large family gathering for a week or two. Close to other attractions like Cardston, Fort Macleod historical fort and Head Smashed in Buffalo Jump, and Castle Mountain ski resort. Summer water activities are ideal outside your back door and this lake also is a popular site for ice fishing in the winter. Wooded areas are within walking distance as well. Sleeps 8. Please inquire regarding additional visitors and relevant fees.
This property is available in 2 separate suites - the main floor with 3 bedrooms (other listing) has a full kitchen and a spacious living room along with two full baths. The lower suite (THIS listing) has 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. Book separately or RESERVE BOTH FLOORS for larger groups with a total 20% discount from the entire house price (which you'll be refunded when you reserve and complete both bookings). You'll love the spacious interior with vaulted ceilings and large picture windows facing the lake and mountains to the west. Link to the Lower Floor here:

We never tired of the view of Payne Lake and the mts.Clean and well equipped but having luggage racks in the bedrooms would have been nice.Beds were comfortable. Lots of room for the 3 of us.

The biggest problem with this lower unit is the noise from 2 sources: (1) the noisy furnace runs practically non-stop and it is impossible to turn off from the lower unit because it is shared with the upper unit. From the master bedroom, I had to keep the bathroom door closed to cut down on furnace noise. (2) the connecting stairway to the upper unit is a sound conduit. I do not think the party in the upper unit was particularly loud (no parties or loud music or late/early hours) but simply having a dinner with 6 people in the upper kitchen was like having all those people were sitting in the kitchen in the lower unit. The conversation was loud and crystal clear from several persons. We put a towel under the door which helped a little. The unit is a little bare -- it needs some lamps (or even better, put the living room and kitchen lights on dimmers), and some spare blankets. The unit was basically clean except some items in the kitchen which are often ignored in these types of rentals. The view is not quite as isolated as it appears, there is a farm and buildings across the way and lots of construction on the street where this property is located. With these caveats, the unit is as depicted. If we were in the area again I would stay elsewhere or in an upper unit -- not the lower.

Incredible scenery and a very comfortable house for our small group of five. The place was overall very clean, though we did notice a few things missed (like paper and small items under the bed). We were disturbed one night by the septic alarm going off—likely just bad luck that it happened in the middle of the night. There was also a water level alarm, and on our last day the Wi-Fi was down, but that was probably due to a power outage.Soundproofing could be improved since we could clearly hear conversations from the upper suite. That said, the surroundings are so beautiful and peaceful that none of these inconveniences spoiled our stay. I highly recommend this property and would definitely return!

Pros - great view and we loved having the lake in our backyard. Cons - the thermostat was a nightmare. I spent way too much of my vacation time on this. I would give this place two stars because of the number of issues we had EXCEPT Wayne responded to me in the middle of the night when the a/c reset AGAIN! If you want to be able to control the thermostat, book the upstairs unit. If you don't care that every set of guests and the cleaners hit a button and take away your ability to control it, book the downstairs. We liked being about 30 min from Waterton, and an hour from the US entrance to Glacier. The Barn store in Mountain View is a great little place - try the Maple Walnut ice cream and the Maple Cream cookies!
