About this space
Welcome to your ecological pristine Oasis.
Nestled steps from the untamed edge of Kootenay Lake, this remote cabin isn't just a place to stay—it's an invitation to experience life at its most extraordinary. It is a destination by itself. This is your passport to a world where nature reigns supreme; adventure lurks around every emerald-green corner, and artistry dances with the elements.
The space
A cozy cabin with laid back elegance awaits.
The moment you step inside, you'll be surrounded by the warmth of this relaxed lakeside cabin. Some of the features are made from found beach wood and every piece has a story and it's as if the very soul of the lake is intertwined in the cabins design. The cabin has one queen size bed, a comfy sofa, extra large bar fridge, fan, delightful kitchenette and vintage wood stove.
The cabin in incredible but the outdoor 1950’s inspired kitchen will blow your mind. Stocked with the means to make a gourmet meal, you will want to use more than just the BBQ.
Extra guests
NEW: I have erected a 12x12 wall tent under the cedar tress and in the shade for up to 2 guests. Please enquire about fees.
Pets
All well behaved pets welcome.
Washing and relieving
Once you’ve had enough swimming for the day, experience the tropical on-demand outdoor shower. All the guests say it feels as if they are showering in Hawaii. The outhouse is sparkling clean and private.
WIFI
The cabin and entire beach area is 5 bar WIFI.
Artistry in Every Corner
The walls are adorned with a fusion of artistry including the entirely reclaimed wood on the walls and counter.
Beachside Paradise
Plunk yourself in a provided lawn chair, or take a dip in water, then get ready for the star show. With no dwellings on the other side of the lake, there is no light pollution here. Very special. Let the cool waters of Kootenay lake soothe your soul as you soak in the sights and sounds of the untamed forest around you. Oh, and don't forget the BBQ—grilling your freshly caught fish while surrounded by nature's bounty is an experience like no other.
Aqua playtime
There are paddle boards, and a vintage cedar strip canoe all available for your enjoyment. I also have a 16ft catamaran and fishing boat where you can book times with me if you desiring a little extra adventure, weather permitting.
Consciousness and responsibility
Please do not bring plastic water bottles. The water here is divine.
Also you are required to recycle and keep the beach clean and clear from buts and garbage at all times.
Fire pit
Who does not love a late night bonfire? Roast your dinner, poke the fire and relax as the lake reflects the dancing flames. Pretty magical.
First night of wood is free, then 15.00/load of wood
Endless Lake Vistas
Your cabin is perched on the edge of the crystal clear water, and you'll hear the waves crashing on the beach just steps away. It's the kind of view that makes you believe in the magic of the world. And the sunsets here are nothing short of spectacular.
Foodie's Dream
The Kitchen is fully equipped, comfortable, and spacious with a gas stove and oven, cooler, blender, orange juice press, toaster oven, stovetop espresso maker, as well as the coffee, sugar, olive oil salt and pepper. The local farms in this secluded paradise are where culinary dreams come true. The quality of the food here is beyond compare. Think fresh, think flavourful, think farm-to-table in its purest form. Enjoy fresh greens from my own garden. And drink the cleanest water straight from the tap which is provided by a high mountain creek. Best water in the world.
The dining experience is equally enchanting, with options to enjoy your meals with the sunset view outside with many options of tables and decks.
Adventures Await
This lakeside tropical dream come true is surrounded by hidden gems that'll keep your inner explorer satisfied. Catch a few waves on the paddle board then cast your line and reel in the catch of the day. Or get your laces tied up on your walking boots and embark on one of the hundreds of hiking trails on the East shore.
If you're seeking a retreat that's part creative haven, family get away, romantic celebration, all paradise, this lakeside cabin on the edge of Kootenay Lake is calling your name. Escape the ordinary, embrace the extraordinary, and let the wild spirit of Kootenay lakes untamed coastline carry you away. Book your stay now, and prepare to write your own chapter in the story of this remote Canadian jungle haven, where eagles fly and art and nature intertwine in perfect harmony.
Guest access
Free parking is located at the main house and then the 100 stairs to your paradise await. Please pack accordingly. You will have complete privacy from 8pm-10am as I restrict beach use during this time. The beach is massive and has plenty of space for privacy during the daytime and since there is another rental on the property you can expect 2 other cool people and myself to come down for dips, sailing and more.
More more more
For further adventures in culinary exploration, foraging, fermenting, massage, sailing or fishing, please enquire so we can be sure your stay is exactly how you imagined it.
Sharing
There is another rental home on the property and they have access to a portion of the beach so please be friendly, respectful and courteous. Or better yet, rent both locations for your group.
All amenities are yours but please share the paddle boards and canoe.About this space Welcome to your ecological pristine Oasis.
