Wake up to Wild Life, River & Mountain View !

Stay at Northern Star in a beautiful valley engulfed with scenery and nature. Watch the wildlife in the alfalfa fields surrounding the house which borders the Kettle river. Fishing, kayaking, floating and swimming just feet from the house. Bird watching, hunting, hiking, fossil or crystal digging, many near by lakes & hiking trails, just a few of the amenities close by. Midway BC Canada is 3 miles to the north. If you're looking for quiet, nature, relaxation and county life here it is !

A beautiful home in a beautiful location

It's hard to imagine a more tranquil location to spend a vacation. The house is beautiful and extremely comfortable. It was also perfectly equipped for all our activities. We had a great time there. Thanks!

Absolutely Amazing

The house was beautiful and the property amazing. Lots of wildlife in the yard. We floated the river and just chilled. Being there just confirmed that we are ready to move to that area and be close to friends.

Perfect for our special day

We booked 2 nights for our wedding. It was incredible! The home, the scenery! There were canadian geese in the fields and bald eagles in the trees. So beautiful! Our hosts were so accommodating for us! Everything was perfect! My only complaint is we didnt stay longer

Gorgeous house.

The house was beautiful. It was well maintained, and supplied. It was an easy house to stay in with children. The main floor bath had a child's toilet seat available. It has plenty of information regarding the use of home. It was user friendly. We felt welcomed and cared for. Not that it was the house or owners issue but beware that cell and Internet service when using phones can be sketchy. We enjoyed our brief stay.

One of the most beautiful places I have ever stayed at with VRBO. Everything is so well thought out an done properly! Very nice kitchen, large dinning area, and the family room has 2 seperate sitting areas. The river gorgous, the mountains stunning, the wild life beautiful, the back deck and front porch such peaceful places to be - I want to stay here again and again! Great communication with the host. This would be such fun for a family. Thank you for sharing this amazing home/location!

Cozy stay in an amazing home

Tom and Margaret are amazing hosts, not only is their home cozy and well stocked with everything you need, but they were very attentive and quick to respond to any questions. Couldn’t ask for a better stay. Can’t wait to return when the snow melts!

Fun times on the Kettle River

We really enjoyed our stay. The house was easy to get to and gain access to. The house was very clean and well stocked. House instructions were easy to follow and not overreaching. The owner lived next door and it wasn't until we were packing to leave did we realized they were there the whole time. This is the first time I have ever left all five stars in every category... so this praise does not come easily from me. We plan to visit again. Thanks for the great experience!
