Unapproved gatherings that result in extra cleaning or disruptions may lead to additional charges and, in rare cases, early termination of the stay. 2. Illegal Activity is Not Allowed For everyone's safety, the use of illegal substances or engaging in unlawful activity is strictly prohibited. If any such behavior is suspected, local authorities may be contacted, and the stay may be ended early. 3. No Smoking or Vaping on our property We ask that you please refrain from smoking or vaping at the home. A $300 fee will be applied if smoking happens on the property. 4.

We had a great weekend getaway at Edward's place. The location is great and peaceful. The property has a beautiful lake view and a nice deck to seat by the water. Very close to all attractions in the New Brunfles area.

Fantastic home to stay in for a family. We had grand parents all the way to grandkids with us for the weekend and it was perfect for everyone. We would definitely consider this home again for a meeting point!
