Relaxing Lake Vacation

We have stayed in both the top and bottom sections of this property, and both are fantastic. Bev is great with communicating if you need to get a hold of her, the property is clean and the listing is accurate. We don't have anything negative to say about either listing, book here and you won't regret it!

Phenomenal holiday!

Stay was amazing! Owners were outstanding, suit has everything you need and more. The kitchen has all the basics and more making it just like home. The front deck has a great view and is comfortable for morning and evening coffee. Back deck is great for drying towels and life jackets. Beach and dock with buoy worked perfectly for us to bring our boat and surf all week! Look forward to coming again.

the Lake House

Lovely property just as advertised on the website. Comfy and cozy. Only complaint is that there are no dressers to put your clothing if you are staying in the loft. Would definitely book there again if we were in the area.

Amazing Spot @ the Shushwap

An absolutely amazing stay at an absolutely amazing property. Unit was spotless, is laid out exceptionally well, and was well stocked with not just the basics (plates, glasses, etc), but had plenty of the little extras like spices, baggies, foil, oil, and a fantastic bbq. Bev was great to deal with and we had zero issues with anything. The outside temps were in the mid to high 30’s, but the AC kept the home nice & cool. The dock & buoy for the boat were great, and location truly cannot be beat. Only reason I would not rate this property 12 out of 10 would be due to the road - it’s not awful, but it’s there. We will return, no doubt about it!

Beautiful lake house

Beautiful stay and view! Only downside, there are 3 separate floors rented at the same time. If the owner is in town and using one of the floors, they will question you and then question your sincerity. Other than that, it was beautiful l!

Beautiful newly renovated unit

We spent two weeks at The Lake House and had a wonderful time. The view from the front deck is second to none. The unit came supplied with many condiments, including coffee pods to get you started on the first day of your stay. As a family of six adults, there was plenty of room. We would definitely recommend The Lake House for your Shuswap vacation!

Close to perfect

We really enjoyed our stay! The location and amenities were pretty much exactly what we wanted for a lake house experience. The host and house were perfect. I would recommend to anyone with these caveats: The road is right there and quite busy, I couldn’t quite relax with small kids around. There is other people in the house again I couldn’t quite relax worrying the kids were being too loud. This is more of a “me” problem and I knew that’s how it would be going in. Everyone in the family enjoyed their stay, Thanks for the memories!

Disappointed

The property is truly stunning and well stocked however we were not told that the owners would be onsite until the week of our vacation. The reason we booked on VRBO is because they advertise no owners on site and this was not the case. We couldn’t have even cancelled and got a refund if we choose. There was a bear in the area that they did not mention to us which is a huge safety concern and was even visited by the bear one night. No where does it state online or in their house rules you can’t have day or night guest and one of the owners made my guests feel uncomfortable. We respected all the rules and still felt very uncomfortable and unwelcomed. We also somehow ended up with a cricket in the ceiling that when I said I couldn’t imagine how it got in their she implied it was our fault. It was not we kept the doors closed. The cricket sang for 4 nights and kept us up for hours in the night. Which granted wasn’t their fault. We decided to leave one day early because it was uncomfortable. The neighbours are very kind people. Very disappointing since this was our summer holiday. You need to state more clearly if you don’t want guests like us so we don’t book. Again we did follow all rules and were respectful.

Spacious, well equipped home with Great lake access!

Helpful, beautiful, close to amenities! We were looking forward to our stay but we really weren’t sure what to expect. We had questions due to the BC fires and The property owner,Bev, was quick to respond with local details. On our way, Covid protocols had changed and she updated us so we could be prepared. It is a lake front community and there are boat and seadoo rentals close by, a grocery store, liquor store, gas station, restaurants, ice cream shack and trail heads all a short jaunt away. Not to mention wineries within 15 minutes to tour and sample. The Lake house has a great view over looking the lake, is very modern, rustic and clean! There is a wonderful dock to make use of which we did a lot. We had my wife and I, our three kids and my sons girlfriend all aged between 19 and 14. There was plenty to do for all. And all of us look forward to a future stay at the Lakehouse! Thanks again Bev!

One of the best VRBO homes we've stayed at

Simply beautiful! Very clean and very quiet! Excellent location for those who love to road bike. Easy to get to quiet country roads from this location. Loved the thoughtful home accents to make it feel like a home away from home. Great outdoor eating area/deck with rock wall (cool place to hang out during hot summer months)! Very comfortable beds/sleeping arrangement for 6 people (3 couples). Spacious kitchen including thoughtful 'coffee station' area -- spacious fridge, and stove/oven -- well stocked kitchen -- everything you need! Excellent communication with Bev prior to, during and after our trip! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us!

About the host

Hosted by Bev Walker

Host profile image
We are a family oriented couple who have decided to share our recently renovated dual suite lake house. When we were introduced to Blind Bay we fell in love with it - so sunny, beautiful scenery and wonderful, friendly people. We love spending time here each season of the year with our growing family and look forward to you and yours to share in this lovely location. We are on site at various times throughout the summer months.

Why they chose this property

We spent several years looking for the right place to vacation and we believe we have found it at Blind Bay on the Shuswap. The weather is wonderful, the view is fabulous and the people are oh so friendly!

What makes this property unique

Each suite is very unique and separate from each other [entrances are on the opposite side of the building].
Renting our entire place is great when relatives or two families want to vacation together but enjoy their own space at the end of the day. Back door from Sailing Suite allows for quick entrance to the LakeHouse.
