Description
We are a family of 5 (kids ages 12, 14, 18), located just 3 miles outside of the lovely town of Stonewall, Manitoba, Canada. We are about 20 minutes north of Winnipeg which is the largest city in Manitoba. We live on a private 5 acre property. We are very friendly and enjoy meeting new people.
We love our animals and have 2 dogs, 1 cat, 8 chickens, and 6 pygmy goats.
We have a beautiful property with a large inground pool (operational June - September) and hot tub.
About our family: Heather is a long time Yoga Instructor and Dan is the Director of Operations for a small city near by. Our kids are into hockey, skiing, music, and gaming.

We are an English speaking family. We love the outdoors, camping and hiking. We enjoy spending time with friends and family.

Our location is close to the main city of Winnipeg, Manitoba which is home to many different cultural experiences. Our seasons here are diverse, with generally lots of snow in the winter, and beautiful beach days in the summer. We are not far from some major lakes and forests.
