Stay at Urban cottage
I had a very nice stay. Felt very comfortable and homey. Sunny Side is a very nice area and an easy walk to a variety of restaurants and dog walking. If the weather hadn’t been so coldI think I would have done much more walking in to the city core just across the river.

Post hip replacement stay
Our trip to Calgary, from BC, was for my hip replacement surgery. We chose to stay at the Urban Cottage Oasis because we wanted a comfortable, home-away-from-home feeling instead of being in a hotel. It is all on one level, has high beds and high bar stools in the kitchen, all of which I needed post-surgery. There were grocery stores at a convenient distance, and my husband enjoyed some good walks straight from the Cottage. This rental home did not disappoint: the beds were comfortable, the couches too, the kitchen well-appointed for our needs and it served us well. We’re grateful to the owner for her flexibility and allowing me to use crutches and a walker in her home.

Beautiful Calgary
This property was a direct reflection of the surrounding beauty of Calgary with its many parks and biking trails. The home was clean, well stocked with ever appliance and utensils for preparing your own food. The neighborhood is quiet and in a perfect location to access downtown, local shops and the trail system. The hosts were available when needed. We wish we had planned on staying longer. We hope to return to this home someday and will recommend to our friends.

Loved this cottage next to a beautiful city!
This location was perfect. The town was adorable. The cottage was just right for us and we even enjoyed the front porch heater with our coffee. The owner was in the unit right below us and was very helpful. Everything is so close and convenient. I wish I had more time to enjoy all of the restaurants and sites.

Awesome house in amazing location
Myself, my husband and my two daughters (4 and 2) stayed for three nights. The property was exactly as pictured with all the amenities needed. The location is amazing with restaurants and coffee shops within walking distance and close to downtown with short drives to all the locations we visited. Home was clean and owners were very responsive. Will definitely be staying here when we come back to Calgary!!

The transformation of this home has been very rewarding and we look forward to sharing this lovely home and our neighborhood with people from all over the world.
