Very relaxing holiday in nature. Great location, right across the Mara lake provincial park and 15 minute drive from Sicamous. Very nice sandy beach and a boat launch with free parking. Cabin is very spacious and has a well equiped kitchen. Our host Terry was very welcoming and accomodating and was there to answer any questions. Would recommend to anyone seeking a relaxing holiday!

Excellent Snowmobiler Cabin Location

Mara Springs Lodge was the perfect spot for us to base out of for our mountain riding excursions. Evenly located between Sicamous and Enderby to allow riding on the upper and lower ends of Hunters Range. Revelstoke is an easy hours drive away for even more riding options. Excellent place to stay!clehadeveneeded also.

Summer fun at Mara!

Our stay at Mara Spring Lodges was great. Our place was tidy and new, there were plenty of towels and the kitchen had a selection of supplies so we could cook our meals. Kids enjoyed the pool and hot tub daily, we had access to a fire pit (purchased a wheelbarrow of firewood for 20 from the host), and even on the rainy day we had, I could sit under the covered front patio and read a book. The entrance to Mara Provincial Park is literally right across the road (a busy road, mind you), so we were able to walk to the beach every day and not worry about finding a parking spot. I would definitely recommend this place as a holiday spot and we are hopeful to return again next summer!
