With much to do; explore the river in one of the non-motorized water crafts, relish in the good swimming as Burnt River is deep with a gentle current, take a day trip to close by beach, golf course or local town.

Great area for hiking, cycling or snowmobiling as the 85 km long Victoria Rail Trail is easily accessible along most sections of the Burnt River.

Suki is easy to get in touch with and very helpful. The space has many rooms and lots of beds. It was ideal for our party of 10. The walk to the water may be difficult for older renters. Dock is a beautiful place to sit on a hot summer day.

Communication was great and fast. Only thing was the house temperature was 10 C when we arrived. Took 6 hours to warm up to 20 C. One of my friend got a cold and we had to leave one day ahead. We booked for 2 nights but stayed for only one night

Not enough chairs for dishes and utensils for 10 people. No dressers, bedside tables or table lamps in most BR. Stove wasn't working properly so we had to turn off the breaker when not in use. The BBQ wasnt useable. Completely rusted out. A hazard! The river was shallow (4' deep ?) and very weedy. Not swimable at all. The cottage was beautiful and wouldnt take alot of work to update to meet expectations.
