Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Shawnigan Lake Vacation Rentals

Our family has been at the Shawnigan Lake since 1979. We have watched our children play in the lake and now watch our grandchildren play in the lake. The Lake House is our happy place. What found memories we have and now we want our guests to create memories for themselves. In 2007 we decided to bring The Lake House up to modern day amenities with a big renovation and decided to rent it as a vacation rental.
Why they chose this property
The view, the water, the wild life at your door step. What a great way to spend your holidays relaxing on the large deck drinking your favourite beverage and watching what is going on in Shawnigan Lake. Architecturally designed interior that maximizes the space for comfortable living. Newly renovated bathroom. BBQ with wooden deck furniture and umbrella for your comfort. Photographs in the interior of what the lake looked like a 100 years ago but in a modern space.
What makes this property unique
The unique benefits of staying at The Lake House you have a free standing house right on the lake with very good privacy. The views are of Strathcona Bay over to the estuary with a multitude of wild life lives. You can sit on the balcony or take the shared double kayak (with life vests) and look for Bald Eagles, Ospreys, beavers (one chewed my tree down), minks, a variety of birds and fish etc.
