While Airbnb reviews are great, it’s the notes that guests at The Pocket Getaway at Big Calm leave that really warm our hearts. So many wonderful people – individuals, couples, families, fur-families, friends, and even colleagues – have visited our charming tiny house in the peaceful woods of the Slocan Valley. Here’s what they had to say about it…
We’re thrilled to welcome the first tiny house to Big Calm!
Last month, a 25-foot Jaunt tiny house on wheels (THoW), a first-of-its-kind model by pro builder ZeroSquared of Calgary. And it sure does look pretty in its perch between the maple and cedars, opposite the garden!
Move-in called for some muscle and finesse. Access to this particular spot, just outside of the rental community area under construction, required traversing a soggy lawn, a hairpin sloped corner, and a nudge up next to the old homesteader cabin. A rig with highway slicks hauled it to site, a local tow truck rounded the corner, and a mini-excavator inched it the last metre or so.
This tiny house will be operated as a guest-stay bookable on Airbnb. Called The Pocket Getaway, its owner John has lovingly set it up to be an incredible remote escape with all the modern conveniences: a comfy queen bed, sofa, full fridge, gas range, microwave, desk, wifi, a surprisingly spacious bathroom, and lots of windows.
