Thank you for your wonderful hospitality. We enjoyed our chats, the spectacular view of the hills and the Kettle Valley and your delicious breakfasts. We'll be back. Thanks. Grethe & Patrick - Victoria, BC

After 45 years of marriage we are still experiencing a first experience. Your lovely piece of heaven is the only time we have been to a "B&B" but this will not be the last. Our invigorating, educational talks with both Carol and Wilf were inspiring, and watching the hummingbirds was fabulous. Deer, chipmunks, birds reminded me of the wonderful forests in "Bambi". I will highly recommend staying here again. Hope to see our granddaughters at a baseball tournament in Abbotsford someday. Phyllis & Don - Maple Ridge, BC

Words don't describe the incredible beauty of this spot...the views are stunning.

Now we are looking forward to the cycle down to Rock Creek & our trip to Midway. Matt & Barb - Vancouver, BC

We had lots of fun with Nook. P.S. the bee sting hurt. Felix & Louis

Loved staying in your comfy, cozy rooms. The decor was delightful. The meals were five ***** plus. Loved hearing about your life in the high country; the hunting, the fishing, the birds and the bees. Enjoyed the cool night air and the peace and tranquility. It was grand meeting fellow travellers from near and far. (Bruce & Lois from Australia). We enjoyed everyone's company and my sister's dog, Bosley, loved his time with Nook. Thanks for your kind hospitality!! Lora & Len - Campbell River, BC  

We arrived here mid evening on the off chance of finding somewhere to stay. We were on our way from Crawford Bay and had been delayed by accidents & ferries! Desperately calling B&B's along the way when we could get service to our phone - all to no avail - all were fully booked! Fate takes a hand and we were warmly greeted by Carol, Wilf and of course Nook. We are new B&B owners ourselves and know what a difference the host can make. - We were invited to their table for dinner - which was delicious as was breakfast too. Make sure you leave room for it the night before! Thank you to you both for a pleasant stay - we shall stay in touch.  Roger & Sally - Inlet Bay Retreat B&B - Port Moody, BC  

To Carol & Wilf -Thanks for the royal treatment! - Your hospitality, stories & wonderful food! (4 days.) Love from, Glyn & Bryan - Old Colwyn, Wales, UK  

Carol & Wilf, Such a peaceful, calm quietness to enjoy at the end of our day's journey. Your welcome with Nook & the friendly conversation before & during dinner made us feel more like "new friends" than guests. The pleasure of having Nook along on our short hike was a real joy. In all, great place, superb food & gracious hosts. We shall talk about "Grouse Ridge" often & promote your B&B at every opportunity. Blessings & thanks. - Thanks for the legendary sticky buns for our journey. Another bonus! Sylvia & Johnny - Surrey, BC  

Carol & Wilf, Thank you for your kind hospitality & delicious meals. The environment is peaceful and beautiful inside and outside. The Santa Fe room is perfect. See you in a few days. Linda & Ed - Vulcan, AB

Thanks for a great "stay" and a pleasant break from the Fair. Marj & Phil - Armstrong, BC   

Outstanding bed & breakfast accommodation - location is without peer. Beautifully furnished (woodwork) & maintained Bill - Edmonton, Alta  

Thanks for a wonderful stay in your fantastic house! (4 nights) The location is perfect for peace and quiet.

Carol & Wilf - you are great hosts and we shall remember the scrumptious breakfasts and late night conversation! Have a good rest over the winter - and we shall keep in touch regarding our 'Canadian plans'! Carol and Dillon - Cambridgeshire, UK  

Carol & Wilf, Many thanks for the cozy room, comfy bed, warm conversation and wonderful grub! (3 nights) It was a pleasure making friends with Nook & Bubba too.
