Guestbook

Stayed for 2 weeks and just had to come back again! Blacksmith lodge has beautiful furnishings, is decorated to an unbeliavable standard and had the best ski access you could imagine. The owners have done a terrific job in making sure everything you need is to hand. The hot tub is soooooo relaxing after a hard day on the slopes and you have to see the views for yourself. (Shaun)

We had a wonderful week staying at your property in Big White! Your home is beautiful and extremely well maintained – very, very clean. The beds are really comfortable; in fact, can you tell us what brand/model the mattresses are (I forgot to check before we left)? My husband particularly enjoyed the high quality hot tub (Tracey)

We wanted to thank you for sharing your place. We absolutely loved it! (Pauline)
