Close to lovely swimming and paddling lakes.

It is more old than rustic as the appliances etc are modern. Somewhat settled hence slightly wonky floors, not a problem though. Great wifi. Lots of tv channels. Needs a new screen door that actually works. Old bagged out loveseat should be replaced with a newer couch. A drying rack on the porch for wet swimsuits and towels would be nice. These are not expensive things but in my opinion would greatly enhance this cabin. It’s not cheap but I think we are paying more for the location. I spent my days paddling on Waugh and Ruby lakes. Also hiked to Skookumchuck narrows. Spent 6 nights here. It was great!

Cute spot great dock

It’s a simple shack cabin, but it’s cute and has everything you need for two adults. If you are very particular or you aren’t used to actual cabins (not perfect brand new immaculate places) this may not be your spot. If you love a little cabin with character and privacy at a good price, you’ll like this. The private dock on a lake is wonderful. The little boats were fun. Overall for the price great value in this area of BC.

Quiet lakefront hideaway

This small but cozy property has a wonderful lakefront location with a swimming dock and row boat for getting out on North Lake. The covered porch was a plus as it rained quite a bit while we were there, but the lake was still warm enough for swimming.

Little piece of heaven.

The cabin itself is a little rustic and dated, but it's clean and comfortable. The location is stellar. Great access to the lake at your doorstep, easy to access the warm waters of the lake, and it's really quiet and secluded. Has the added benefit of having no cellular coverage or wifi, so you just drop off the edge of the world here... Just a beautiful, quiet location.
