Walk through the front door to the open living area with a kitchen, dining room and cozy living room with a wood burning fireplace – perfect for snowy evenings. When you step outside from the main living area, you’ll find an incredible deck with lots of seating and views of the forest. This is the absolutely perfect spot for your morning coffee. This is also where you will find the two-person hot tub – soak and relax after your winter fun. On this level, you will also find a nook with a stationary bike.

From here, you can head upstairs to all three bedrooms.

Don’t feel like leaving the property? Explore the 5 acres on the already created trail system. The perfect way to start your day! Your dog will love this house too. Not only will your dog be able to enjoy the trails and trees with you but there is a locked dog area where you can leave him or her for the day while you’re up skiing!

Feel free to use the outdoor firepit for an evening of family fun.

Okanagan Mountain Retreat has central air conditioning for cooling off on those warmer summer days.

* VRBO has recently changed their policy. They used to show Canadian properties in Canadian dollars but they have switched to showing the "from rate" in U.S. dollars and also using the lowest season rate. This is misleading to our valued guests. When you do actually request specific dates it converts to Canadian dollars - but we wanted you to know upfront that the price that is shown in your initial search is not necessarily in Canadian dollars or for the actual dates you want. Our apologies to our Canadian guests.

What our guests have to say:

"Great big space loads of room. Warm and very comfy." - January 2024

"I highly recommend this quaint and beautiful log house. Six family members and two poodles stayed in this pet-friendly home. It was warm, comfortable and cosy. The home lacked for nothing and we were able to make a real fire in the fireplace in the evenings and enjoy the hot tub after skiing. We explored the trails in the woods with the dogs. It was close to Silver Star Ski Resort and to the town of Vernon. The home had all of the technology we are used to, such as wifi and a big screen TV, for movie watching in the evenings. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was well-equipped and we were able to prepare some memorable meals. The host was very responsive. This is a great place to stay." - January 2024

"Booked this place now. It's perfectly placed for a mountain getaway and possibly even priced too low for what it is. We spent 10 days mountain biking at Silver Star and surrounding areas. Loved it." - September 2023

"Silver Star Stays are incredibly wonderful and responsive hosts. The cabin is spacious yet cozy and the gardens and gazebo are so peaceful and calming. It’s exactly what we were looking for, seclusion but not too secluded. The cabin is a quick drive into town. Thank you again guys! We will be back next year with Silver Star Stays." - July 2023

"Beautiful place to stay. Great location while at Silver Star mountain biking."

"Beautiful house and location. Beds were very comfortable. Silver Star Stays was very easy to communicate with." - June 2023

"We had 6 people and a dog on our holiday. Home was very comfortable and well appointed. Highlight was a real indoor fireplace as well as a fire pit in the front yard and lots of chopped wood available! All amenities from the coffee maker to the TV were in fully functioning condition and easy to use. Beds, linens, bathrooms all comfortable. Host was gracious and responsive We were there in early April so it was still quite cool (great for Spring skiing) and we didn't use the backyard seating area, bbq and hot tub. The 5 acres of land was great for the dog to run around. From a location pov, it's great for folks who want to go to Silver Star ski resort which is a great ski hill. In the summer time, the grass will be green making the yard even more pleasant. However, for folks going to the Okanagan in the summer time to be close to a lake, there is no lake view and the lake would be a 15-30 mins drive away. We drove to Kalamalka Lake where there was a great walking trail." - April 2023

"We booked the Mountain retreat property for the month of February 2023. First impressions are that the property is well maintained and care and thought have been put into making sure that guests have all the amenities they need to have a wonderful stay. Having space to have our dogs with us was a big plus, whether they were out on the trails up the hill behind the house, or on the porch they were happy with having a place to roam. We have very responsive dogs that stick pretty close to the house. When we did occasionally leave the property without them we opted to put them in the oversized fenced area so they could be safe outside but also comfortable. Honestly the owners have put a LOT of thought into making things accessible for those traveling with pets. We did not give our dogs free rein in the house but rather chose to keep them contained- less mess for us to clean up! The log home is cozy and it is SO quiet, we rarely heard road noise, occasionally there was a dog barking in the distance but nothing that interrupted us. We loved the 2 person hot tub - it was the perfect size for our group and it was easy to run. Its location at the back of the house is perfect for a midnight soak and look at the stars! Having access to laundry facilities onsite was huge for us and if you were traveling with children that would be a huge bonus. There are three large bedrooms and floor space for more if need be. The kitchen has everything you would need. The furnace keeps everything warm. We were in the area to ski and hike and the location of the house is perfect for both. 12 minutes up the hill to Silverstar and 5-7 minutes down the hill to Vernon. We loved the location. We felt very safe here. There is ample parking available, a fire pit with lots of wood if you want to have an outside fire. We will be back!" - March 2023

"The place is very nice, perfect for the family, the facilities are well cared for, 100% recommended." - December 2022

A perfect 5-star retreat!
We had an incredible stay at this beautiful mountain log house! It was impeccably clean and impressively well stocked, making us feel right at home. The open concept layout, well-equipped kitchen, outdoor hot tub, and spacious deck were all fantastic. It’s also dog friendly, which was fabulous for our furry family members. Tucked away in the serene woods, it truly was the perfect relaxing getaway. 5 stars all the way! We hope to come stay again.

Very cozy and comfortable cabin!
We enjoyed our stay at the cabin. The wood fire and comfortable furniture made for a relaxing weekend. The large kitchen made it easy for the gang to cook in. The deck does require some repairs - the two large holes in the deck surface was a concern especially after dark. Besides this, we truly enjoyed our stay.
