Another great stay at the lake house!
We returned to the Lake house for a second time, and its stil a perfect home away from home, containing everything you could need during our stay, even down to the pool noddles for fun at the beach. Our teenagers loved the fact they were a short (10min) bike ride to the beach and bakery! When we weren't on the beach, we were either soaking up the amazing view of the lake from the front deck. Wendy and Douglas were great hosts, from the freshly baked cookies on arrival, to the fresh rhubarb and banana bread for the journey home, they both made us feel right at home. Thanks Wendy and Doug!

Perfect Family Getaway
Our family had the most wonderful week-long stay at this VRBO property, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. From start to finish, everything about our stay was fantastic.
The property itself was a true gem. Spacious, beautifully decorated, and equipped with all the amenities we needed, it felt like a home away from home. The open living area allowed us to spend quality time together, and the well-appointed kitchen made cooking a breeze. The bedrooms were comfortable and cozy, ensuring a restful night's sleep for everyone.
The highlight for us was the stunning outdoor space. The private patio offered breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape, and it quickly became our favorite spot for morning coffees and evening relaxation. The proximity to local attractions was also a major plus, as we were able to explore the area with ease.
The booking process was seamless, and the host's communication was top-notch. They provided us with helpful information about the property and the surrounding area, which made our trip even more enjoyable.
In summary, our family's week-long stay at this VRBO property was everything we could have hoped for and more. If you're looking for a comfortable, well-situated, and beautifully maintained getaway, look no further. Thank you to the host for making our vacation truly memorable. We can't wait to return!
Best regards,
Poirier Family

Wonderful stay
We had such a fabulous week based from this lovely quiet location. The house is older and well-maintained. We had everything we needed and the kitchen was well-stocked. The weather was hot and the air conditioning was appreciated though the house does stay quite cool. We were surprised the house was so quiet. There are neighbours but we didn’t hear them. Our 6 and 8 year olds didn’t complain about the walk to the beach which took less than 10 minutes. It’s also a close walk to town. Wendy and Doug were great hosts who gave us cookies, jam, fresh mint from the garden and were kind to the kids.

Clean, quiet, comfortable
We found the property to be very clean and well maintained. The bed and pillows very comfortable. The kitchen had everything imaginable available. The main feature was the deck out front with the amazing view and the very quiet location - even though it was a very short walk to the beach and town. Slept with the windows open each night to take advantage of the breeze (there is AC) and never heard a peep. Owners right next door so they checked in on us to see how we were doing and offered some great local advice.

Another Fantastic Week in Invermere
We returned for our second visit to the Lake House and had another wonderful week. Wendy and Doug have added an air conditioner to the main living space, which we enjoyed in the hot weather for the first half of our week, and we were also greeted and sent on our way with Wendy's delicious cookies. Highly recommend this property, we are already looking forward to when we can back for a third visit to Invermere.

Beautiful view…..
We could live here says it all…..well equipped family home with friendly on site [next door ] owners.
Invermere is a lovely town..we visited three beaches….also did the Golden Skybridges, Radium and Fairmont Hot Springs, Fort Steele and many forest hikes.
Had barbecues and s’mores at the Lake House most evenings enjoying that lovely view.
Only downside was the bottom double bunk that my son and his wife used…a double and single bed in that room may have been better.
…but all in all a lovely place for a family break…thanks Wendy and Doug….

Another awesome vacay!
My family returned to the Lake house this past week after staying there exactly 3 years ago. I was pleasantly surprised to see that not much has changed with the exception of the beautiful landscaping and exterior finishing. The house was still well-stocked with necessities such as coffee, filters, salt, pepper, soap, extra t-paper, Kleenex, Saran Wrap and even frozen beer mugs ready for happy hour! I was again impressed at how soft Wendy’s towels are. (Gotta find out what she uses!) Wendy and Doug live next door but we never saw or heard them unless we needed something. Tv remote batteries died and with an email, Doug showed up next morning with a 4 pack of AA’s. Wendy welcomed us with a basket of her delicious cookies (and even milk bones for our fur-babies) and later left a surprise jar of yummy rhubarb jam at our door. Luckily we missed the 40 degree heatwave by 2 days so absence of AC was not an issue. I think what sets the lake house apart from the average vacation rental is Wendy and Doug’s attention to the details and customer service. We will definitely be returning!

Great summer family vacation
We stayed at the lake house at the end of June. I was there with my husband 2 year old daughter and my parents. The location of the property is amazing and was PERFECT for us being there with a young family. We were a 5 min walk to the park/beach/splash park and a 10 min walk to the town/shops. It is a quiet street so we would play in the front yard or the back yard got nice a shaded for hot afternoons. The view of the lake was lovely, we had dinner on the front deck every night. The house was SO well stocked, I agree with other reviews that this is probably the best stocked VRBO I have ever stayed in.
Wendy and Doug are lovely. They were very welcoming, friendly and accommodating.
We loved our time here and would definitely book again!

Even Better than the Photos
We had a fantastic week relaxing at the Lake House. The view out over the Lake from the front deck and front room is beautiful. There is plenty of space inside to hang out together or find your own spot for some alone time. The kitchen has more equipment than you could possibly need, and the BBQ and fireplace out back save you from having to use it all the time too. The beach is a short (less than 10 minute) walk down the hill, and downtown is maybe another 5 or 10 minutes from there. Thanks for having us, we're looking forward to another stay in the future.

Home away from home
During these difficult times of Covid-19 we were looking for a quiet and safe getaway and we found that and more at The Lake House. The house is situated at the end of a very quiet cul de sac, with a fantastic view of the lake off the front deck and from the front room. It’s within walking distance to the popular Kinsmen Beach and the beautiful Main Street downtown. Upon arrival, we were immediately impressed with the curb side appeal, and the cleanliness of the outside and well cared for garden and deck. Inside the home was spotless and appears more like a well loved, lived in home that is beautifully and tastefully decorated than a typical rental property. The home has everything you could need with the kitchen being the best stocked VRBO property I’ve ever stayed in. I truly appreciated the quantity and quality of all the kitchenware. There are plenty of towels, including beach type towels and many good quality cloths for various uses. I appreciated the little extras where there was salt, pepper, sugar, spices, tea, ziplock bags, wrap, dish soap etc available. A nice touch! Also truly appreciated the beach chairs, sun umbrella and swim noodles. Bedrooms were perfect for our group with lots of drawer and closet space with organizers. We made use of the fantastic front deck every morning and evening and spent many hours just enjoying the view and wildlife. Neighbours were super friendly. Wendy delivered wonderful home baked cookies upon our arrival and on my birthday I came home to a lovely thoughtful gift left on the front porch. My daughter wanted to stay and live there 😂.
Wendy and Doug have done this right! They are readily available, friendly, but not intrusive and top notch hosts. Absolutely loved our week. Thank you for sharing your lovely home.

Great vacation house!
There were 4 of us enjoying a week out of city. This was the perfect spot!
- The backyard was great for our dogs.
- The front patio has an amazing view and was a great way to spend the day reading, lounging in the sun.
- This place is located just a 5 minute walk from the beach and a pretty easy walk to "downtown" Invermere.
- The kitchen was well-stocked with everything you need to cook good meal.
- This location was also great to see the local deer run about, with a doe and fawn hanging around.
- Wendy and Doug were great hosts and readily available for any questions or issues (and her Rhubarb jam is very tasty!)
Would definitely stay here again and recommend to others.

Perfect holiday house!
Had a great two weeks in the Lake House. It was clean and comfortable, with every need taken care of. The kitchen was incredible, everything you would want to have a party for 25! We loved Wendy's decor with lots of pictures, candles, cushions, and ornaments etc. Spent a lot of time in the sunny front room with the beautiful lake view and deer on the lawn. Our little dog was happy, enjoying walks around Dorothy Lake and a well fenced back yard.
Wendy and Doug are very friendly and generous hosts.
