Blackstrap Lake Vacation Rentals

"Really enjoyed our stay. Food was excellent. Staff was friendly and professional "

"Very easy check in. Kitchen was well equipped. We found this home to be comfortable and just the right size for our family. It was also quite easy to access major city streets. "

"Its a cheaper looking Motel but for the price it was great. "

"The basement suite itself is located in a very nice area. We were surprised at the condition of the unit when we entered. It needs quite a few repairs. The dishes had chips and there were not enough coffee mugs. There was a weird film on the coffee table and stove top. The oven was cleaned but the cleaner remained inside it and created awful fumes so we were unable to use it. There’s no dishwasher so you need to hand wash everything and trust the handwashing job was done okay from pervious people. In my opinion is wasn’t and we had to wash the cutlery and mugs. The pans were very grimy so we didn’t use them. The element dials have all the information worn off them so you need to guess what temp you are using. Towels are older with some stains. The mattress are con-caved - a big dip in the middle so sleeping was uncomfortable at times. The couch was well worn and has a sagg along the back making a bit challenging to get up and not super uncomfortable.The website photos appear to be over 3 years old. Different bed, different coffee table, different rug & the desk is well worn and needs a refresher. Just about every wall needs chips & cracks filled and a full paint job needs done.The outside area had cigarette butts and garbage. I’m disappointed that I paid as much as did given the state of disrepair. I took over 20 photos but the site only lets me upload 8…"

"Super clean suite, with fun extras like adjustable coloured lighting in the kitchen/living room areas, and a dual shower head.PROS: Extremely clean, excellent communication from host, three separate beds (two which were very comfortable - the smaller single bed was extremely firm), large washer & dryer with Tide detergent, nicely stocked kitchen with some spices, coffee & coffee maker, sugar, powered milk, plastic wrap, etc.CONS: No hair dryer (so bring your own), no iron, a little light on towels (there were large beach towels, but no face cloths, and only one hand towel), there was a very strong cleaner smell which took a while to dissipate (guests with allergies might have a problem), no sharp kitchen knife (but there were scissors), this suite is located in a relatively new suburb, so is a longer drive to other parts of Saskatoon."

"Beautiful place"

"I had a wonderful stay! Definitely above average for a vacation rental. You felt like you were home with all the extra decorative touches. Thank you Tanya for being so well organized with the well written instructions in the binder. "

"It was a very clean and comfortable space, and the hosts were very kind and welcoming, and ready to help in any way.This is a place I would recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay for a few days or weeks in Saskatoon."

"The shower was amazing, deep tub, amazing shower head, some REAL water pressure. Additionally it was quite, cozy and spacious. It was a little odd we had to strip the beds and turn on the washer ourselves but maybe thats normal with VRBO, I am new to these type of stays. The beds were very comfy!! "
