Thoughtfully restored and well appointed, the home offers generous gathering spaces, comfortable accommodations, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere ideal for families, friends, and group stays year-round.
During winter months, Twin Willows is ideally located just two exits south of Hatley Pointe, which offers both downhill skiing and family-friendly snow tubing. Stines House serves as a comfortable and convenient home base for winter adventures, with plenty of space to gather, relax, and warm up after a day on the slopes.
Perfect for reunions, wedding groups, and multi-generational travel, Stines House combines the charm of a historic residence with the convenience of modern amenities. Guests enjoy the privacy of a large home while being part of a scenic mountain estate with optional access to seasonal dining, events, and outdoor amenities nearby.

Summary: 1: The kitchen is not equipped with enough essentials and cook wears especially for big families and specially for people who would like to make family dinner every night.Just for an example a grater or can opener should be there. 2: please make sure not to take shower at the same time or the water will get cold. First night after we came from snow tubing, my daughter and my sister took shower and then I had to go with my 2 yr old. the water got freezing cold and my baby was crying. And we waited at least 15 mins for the water to get hot again. This was a very bad experience.3: There is a plumbing issue upstairs. The sink in 2nd bedroom and the tub drain is clogged. Actually the kitchen sink was kinda clogged too.4: The house was full of beetles. I mean they were everywhere from sink, bathrooms, living area, kitchen, ceiling and even beds.5: There is not enough laundry detergent specially for larger groups who are staying more than 2 night.6: Housekeeping people need to do a better job sweeping and mopping. Under the couches were disgusting and our little poppy brought a capsule in her mouth from under the couch.7: There is no TV in the living room. You can’t watch TV as a family at night. We just played games. 8: The king bed upstairs has the worst mattress. They just attached 2 twin mats together with a fitted sheet. This was the most ridiculous king mattress. My 2 yr old had to sleep with us and she was in the hole in the middle. So uncomfortable.
