Quiet getaway

Love the remote location and the beautiful view from inside and outside the bach. The kids had fun with the games and pool table. Heat is mostly from a wood burning stove.

Beautiful Lake House

Amazing property with an amazing view, we went for a boating weekend and this house is the perfect location. Boat ramp just down the road, ski lane right out in front of the house and hot springs so close to the house. We loved our trip and can't wait to come back.

The view is amazing. However access to the property is challenging. It’s quite rural with a long off-road access. Really difficult without a 4x4. Also no WiFi which should be carefully read through the listing.
