Hospitality Description: This is our secondary home so guests staying have the benefit of total privacy with the space all to themselves. We live in the same town and would LOVE to show you the area or make reccomendations for the many amazing museums, tours and parks (national & provincial) to visit. Moose Jaw is 15 mins away and has terrific restaurants including amazing wings at the famous Deja Vu Cafe (featured on You Gotta Eat Here 2018.) Also the city is home to a world renown mineral spa: Temple Gardens often compared to the geothermal spa in Bath,England. Use of a vehicle may also be an option for guests depending on the length of stay and on a case by case basis.

The space
Prairie Pop House is our secondary home so guests have complete privacy, and if joining us for a hospitality stay have their own separate space. There are 3 bedrooms but one is set up as a dedicated work space. A comfy roll away cot easily comes out to convert the office into bedroom if need be. The dining table also extends to seat 8 people for a larger family dinner or family game night. Guests will find a crokinole (a Canadian tradition) & chess board conveniently hanging up at the ready. The main living & dining area is
well stocked with popular board games, roku TV, dvd player (we're ole school😄, dvd's for kids and families, a small gas fireplace, keurig coffee machine with plenty of Starbucks
pods,😉 and a comfy pullout sofa that can sleep two. Relax in front of our 3 picture windows that look out over the gorgeous golden wheat fields and walking trail right on the
Canadian Prairie.
Down the hall you'll find a large 4 piece washroom with fixed and portable (at request) grab bars as well as a complimentary toiletry basket in the event you forgot something. The laundry station is right outside the washroom and fully equipped with a washer & dryer as well as extra towels in the cabinet above.
The first room on the right is the office and dedicated workspace with a desk, office chair, and comfy rocker with footstool. A comfortable cot stored in the second bedroom is easily rolled in to convert the office to a 3rd private bedroom if needed.
The second door on the right is our Bubble Bunk Room, a bubble themed room for kids! There is a sparkle pop light, bubbles blasting up the wall, weighted blankets along with a funky bubble lamp night-light and a small coloring table sits in the corner for kids to enjoy. The bottom bunk is a queen size with the top a twin bed so 3 kiddos fit easily.
The last room at the end of the hall is the spacious master bedroom with a orthopedic firm mattress, huge built in closets for longer stays and two bedside nightstands. Extra blankets and quilts are kept in the closet if needed.
Outside in summer enjoy our private deck with bistro set for 4 and BBQ grill for those family cookouts. The private yard looks out on the prairie and also has a cozy fire pit for a weinie roast and smores! Grab a tomato or two as well as a handful of herbs from our garden box available to guests to jazz up your supper or compliment your lazy brunch. We want our home to feel like your home when you're here.😊
