It was time for a romantic getaway, and we found the perfect spot. The cottage was impeccably stocked for cooking, spotlessly clean, and just an hour's drive from the charming town of Waterton, AB. Our evenings were spent by the fire pit, sitting under the gazebo, or relaxing in the hot tub. Our amazing hosts went above and beyond by arranging champagne and a beautiful red rose for my birthday girl. Thanks again for an unforgettable getaway.
One of the most relaxing getaways we have ever been on! The cleanliness, the little extras amazing. Perfect for couples to get away and reconnect. We will be back.
Super friendly hosts, very cozy, comfortable tiny house! The attention to detail is amazing. Exceptionally clean. Looking forward to staying here again!
This quaint escape was the perfect getaway for my wife and me. I was working in the area and decided to make it a bit of a getaway. So glad we did. The atmosphere is very relaxing and comfortable. Our hosts left us some goodies in the cottage and we took full advantage. My wife stayed and worked remotely during the day while I was away, she loved every minute of her alone time. The Spaberry hot tub was excellent. We loved unwinding at the end of the day. My only complaint is that I didn't book an extra day. Absolutely wonderful experience.
This was the most adorable little house! They've thought of everything to make your stay relaxing. The basket of snacks in the kitchen, to commonly forgotten toiletries in the bathroom. And the hot tub!! What an amazing feature! The plexiglass over top between the gazebo and the fence, and the piece that went down the fence was a brilliant touch. We had a fantastic time and will definitely be back and will be sure to tell our friends.
Our stay at Prairie Rose Cottage was entirely enjoyable, relaxing and everything was exactly as advertised. We appreciated the little extras, and the fact that no one bothered us for our entire visit. We will definitely return in the new Year. Thanks again.Wayne and Sue
Prairie Rose Cottage is adorable and cozy and very, very clean and neat. The location and the price are very good. The kitchenette is fully stocked with lots of thoughtful extras—even some eggs and milk in the refrigerator. The hot tub is a real bonus. We highly recommend this accommodation and we will stay here again if travelling in southern Alberta.
Beautiful little cottage! We enjoyed the extra touches of fresh eggs and milk and snacks that were supplied, spent a day in Waterton, and golfed at the Fort McLeod golf course!
Such a beautiful, clean little cottage! Definitely was a little home away from home. Had all the basics (and more) for what you need (pots, pans, snacks, toiletries, movies, books, hot tub, fire pit, bikes etc). Highly recommend coming here!
This is the most magical place. It went above and beyond our expectations. So many personal touches that really made it feel like home. We used this as a base and drove into visit Waterton and Head Smashed In Buffalo Jump. It was so relaxing and the hot tub was amazing! Highly recommend.
Very peaceful. Thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub & fire pit. Loved the coziness of the cottage.Loved the added touch milk & eggs. Your gardens are beautiful.
We had an amazing time at this cozy little cottage. The patio area is amazing, the hot tub was much appreciated as were all the little extras that the host provided. The cottage was exceptionally clean and well stocked. The only reason for the four stars instead of five is because I was surprised that the cottage was so close to the hosts house. From any pictures I had viewed, I was under the impression that the cottage was tucked away somewhere private, which isn’t the case (the patio is somewhat private, the cottage itself is not) With that said, we didn’t have any privacy issues, but it is worth mentioning if you are looking for something a little more secluded. A simple fix would be a privacy fence on the one side of the cottage that would separate the cottage area from the main house. Overall this is a wonderful little place and I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.Pic to show cabin in relation to house. (Again, only an issue if you are looking for something with a little more privacy)
Loved our little getaway at Prairie Rose Cottage! The cottage had everything you could want for your stay from the kitchen to entertainment to outdoor patio set up and so much more! Loved the rustic/country decor and all the little personal touches of the cottage! Located very close to other centres if you wanted to go into town for anything! The owners were so easy going and great to deal with! Very reasonable pricing! Will be back for sure!
Prairie rose Cottage is an amazing little getaway for a couple or couple with kids, beautiful little cabin and the hosts provide almost everything youd need for a comfortable stay from fresh milk and eggs to peanut butter and jam packs, all you gotta bring is the bread. It was quite windy and a little chilly during our stay so we didnt get to enjoy the fire pit or really take advantage of the gazebo on the patio but our next visit we'll try for the summer months so we can give it a shot, wonderful experience, definetly coming back!!
Sweetest little bed and breakfast cabin. Comfy and well appointed. Exceptionally clean and tidy with everything you might need at your fingertips ... fresh milk, fresh eggs and snacks with everything needed to cook if you choose. The bed, sheets and comforter were so comfortable. Lots of light but blinds when needed. It's tiny but its perfect.
My husband and I loved this amazing little cottage!:) It was the perfect little get away! They really went above and beyond from the eggs and milk in the fridge to the extra cozy blanket. I will definitely be recommending to our friends and family!:)
My boyfriend and I went to this cottage to celebrate an anniversary. We enjoyed our stay very much and would definitely visit again. All the snacks and huge variety of dvds and books was much appreciated. A great little place to relax
My husband & I thoroughly enjoyed out little getaway at the Prairie Rose Cottage! We loved everything about the adorable tiny cottage, beautiful patio & fire pit! The extra thoughtful touches from the hosts are what make this place memorable - fresh eggs, milk, snacks, fire wood and the welcome binder full of all the information one might need. We will 100% recommend this cute place to our friends and will be back to enjoy more time there ourselves. Thank you for a wonderful experience!
My husband and I stayed at Prairie Rose Cottage for the weekend and we were blown away by all the little extra touches that were included and totally not expected! Everything you need for breakfast is there. We loved that! It's such a sweet little cottage and we had a super relaxing weekend. We'll definitely be back the next time we need a quiet break from the city.

“This was my second time here, and I will be back again. There are so many thoughtful touches, the only things you need to bring are a toothbrush and toothpaste, a change of clothes, and something for dinner. I will be back again and again!”
“Yes, this tiny cottage is adorable and cozy. Yes, the location and price are amazing. Yet, what makes a stay at the Prairie Rose Cottage truly wonderful are the special little touches.

All I can say is wow! My wife and I had an amazing time at your cottage, we can’t wait to come back and ride the bikes around the little town of Orton. Personally I loved it, specially how clean it was and how it felt like home. I will be recommending you guys too […]
Jacquelien hosts one of the most phenomenal little hide-away cabins there is to offer in Southern Alberta. We wanted to find a place peaceful, and you sure find this here! Can’t wait to come again!
A little piece of paradise. Such an amazing place to stay! So close to so many tourist attractions within an hours drive away. After your day of sightseeing, return home to relax on your own private patio with a glass of wine. Enjoy the hot tub to chill in……or just enjoy the country life of […]

Enjoy walking and biking the quiet country roads or relaxing on the front porch, listening to birds and crickets and maybe catching a glimpse of a unique wildlife visitor or a gorgeous prairie sunset.
