About this property

Private Waterfront Cottage on Lac des Roches

Our private waterfront cottage is set on 1 acre with 100’ of south facing shoreline on Lac des Roches. It features all the comforts of home and is newly renovated and decorated in rustic mountain décor. The highlights of the property are the large deck overlooking the lake and mountains and the large floating dock where you can enjoy the mountain lake setting.
Our cottage is located on Lac des Roches, which is along the “fishing highway” on the edge of British Columbia’s Caribou Region. It’s an easy 5 hour drive from Vancouver or 8 hours from Edmonton. Our cottage is accessible on a quiet paved service road just off highway 24. Lac des Roches is a crystal clear lake set amongst mountains and forests. The area is well known for fishing and our lake are deep and clear so is great for swimming and watersports. The area offers a variety of activities including fishing, hiking, canoeing, bird watching, boating, swimming, golfing, rafting, horse back riding, biking, and ATVing. Wells Gray Provincial park is located just 40 mins away with and abundance of activities and featuring several beautiful waterfalls.
Our cottage is located on the south facing shore of Lac des Roches and most mornings start with the sun shining on beautiful crystal clear calm water. Coffee on the large private floating dock just a few steps away from the cottage is a peaceful way to start the day with the quiet sounds of nature. There is very little water traffic on our lake and no development on the opposite side, so the only view is of natural forest and shoreline across the lake. The dock and the water is a great way to spend the day. The lake is great for swimming, watersports, fishing or exploring the many bays and secluded shorelines. Our outdoor firepit at the edge of the lake is a highlight for spending the evening relaxing while watching and listening to the sounds of the lake. Loons often call and most evenings, you can see the moon rising over the mountains and reflecting on the lake.
Our large deck overlooking the mountains and lake to the south is a great place to relax and features an outdoor patio dining set and barbeque.
Our large floating dock is great for swimming and relaxing and can provide secure moorage for larger boats. Water access to launch boats is provided at the Eagle Island Resort or Peaceful Cove Resort for a fee. Boat trailers can be stored along the service road at our cottage entrance.
The inside of our cottage is newly renovated and offers all the comforts of home in a rustic mountain décor. Inside finishing features hickory hardwood and slate tile flooring, solid maple cabinets, a wood burning fireplace and large windows offering an expansive view of the surrounding environment. The spacious kitchen is fully equipped with a microwave, fridge, oven, stovetop and sink. The bathroom feels like a spa with its slate tile on the floor and walls and a comfortable claw foot bathtub to relax in. Each bedroom has a comfortable queen bed and window. Our cottage also includes a clothes washer and dryer.

Amazing place!Spotlessly clean, very comfortable, and with direct access to a stunning lake. It felt very private — just a few houses nearby, all at a good distance, so you can truly enjoy the peaceful setting and beautiful scenery.Darcy also let us use his kayaks, which was the highlight of our stay. It was incredible to explore the pristine lake from the water.Excellent communication with the host, easy check-in, and clear instructions.Out of the nine places we stayed during our month-long vacation in Canada, this was by far our favorite!

What a view!

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay with family. It was rainy and cool the first day and we enjoyed games and good food. The lake was like glass so we took the kayaks out to see and hear the loons and grebes the second day. So peaceful

Private getaway

The cabin was private and fully equipped. The lake was quiet and picturesque. It was everything I wanted. The BBQ had a burner out when I was there, but I was told in advance. The property manager was responsive and forthcoming but only sent me the details the day before I was scheduled to arrive. That's when I found out that there are 2 kayaks available but they cost extra.

Peace and Quiet by the Lake

We enjoyed our time at this beautiful cottage on the lake. The cottage had everything you could want in a home away from home, including Kitchen Aid appliances and a very well stocked kitchen for all your cooking needs. The view from the huge deck is beautiful to sit and relax and the fire pit down by the lake is a nightly ritual to watch the sun set and listen to the loons and of of course making s’mores. Darcy the owner was great to deal with , answering any questions we had very quickly. We would highly recommend this vacation property if you are looking for peace and quiet by the lake.

Fantastic Cabin

I booked this cabin as a girl’s getaway for my sisters, Mom and myself. Darcy’s communication was prompt and the ‘before you go’ email was clear and concise. Darcy checked in with me on the evening of check in, which I appreciated. Beautiful, peaceful setting. The cabin was clean and well laid out. The kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans and plastic wear too. The deck is the perfect place for your first coffee and al fresco dinner. The cabin is newly renovated and very charming. Disappointed in the lack of stand up shower in the bathroom. The claw foot tub is outfitted with a hand held sprayer only. This, however, is the ONLY draw back of this awesome property. We will definitely book again if we are in the area.

Lake cabin getaway

The property was very welcoming and well kept and the host contacted us once we had settled to check in on how everything was and if there was anything needed, which I appreciated. The interior of the home was great and everything was extremely comfortable and surprisingly well stocked of items for the kitchen/bath, that one could’ve forgot to bring. I didn’t, but I thought how great it was that it was there for a guest if need be. The cabin is set back in the tree lined lot nicely, it’s very private and the view of the dock and lake really calls for you to take the short stroll down and enjoy. I highly recommend this property to anyone looking at wanting to spend time at a fabulous cabin on a lake experience. We rented a small boat and rode around the entire perimeter of the lake and had a blast. We later paddleboarded down the lake and back. There’s fishing, canoeing and kayaking. But just jumping in and swimming around was so nice. So… a big thumbs up for this place 👍 Thanks, Ron

A wonderful stay

Lac des Roches was exactly what we were looking for, remote, scenic, peaceful and beautiful. Darcy's cabin was also exactly what we were looking for, a beautiful lakefront property with a large floating dock and easy access. The cabin has been well constructed and tastefully decorated with a remote wildernesss feel. Double pane windows and doors kept the wind and rain at bay during our one stormy day, and even though the tempurature dropped down to 4 degrees at night, the insulated cabin kept us more than comfortable. Kitchen and bathroom facilities were very good, and hot water was available on demand. The large deck and barbecue are new and clean, and the fire pit in the yard is a great place to have a cold refreshment. Comfortable beds and furniture make for a very nice accommodations, and new washer and dryer added a very nice touch. Obvious care has been taken in this property, well done! Darcy provided excellent directions and details, and was very accommodating and pleasant to deal with. We had zero negative experiences with the property and would be happy to return!

It was the perfect setting for a reunion with my brother and sister in law from Australia. From the moment you step inside and see how the tastefully done and inviting interior complements the beautiful lakes views, you know you're in for a memorable stay. This is a gem.

Beautiful modern 2 bedroom with rustic décor and wonderful large deck with lovely view. Bonus that there was no fire ban and we were able to have a fire by the lake in the fire bowl. Extra wood and ice available at Eagle Island Resort. Limited population on this lake made it so peaceful! A great escape for some well needed downtime!

We had a fantastic stay, we loved the house, the dock, the lake… The lake is super clear, great for swimming. It was the highlight of our big Canadian trip, and that is saying something. We also loved the neighbour (and his dog Bruce). Very friendly, helping us out with everything. I would REALLY recommend staying at this house.

Beautiful lake, great cottage

My family had a great time staying at this lakefront cottage. The lake is impeccable and everything is well prepared inside and outside the house. Nice local communities, food, sporting goods, community events, church service ... The only problem is that the summer lake trouts easily outsmarted us, which Darcy warned us about :)

Amazing quiet scenic cabin

We stayed at Darcy's cabin by Lac des Roches for a weekend, halfway through our Canadian holiday around the Rockies and we just loved it ! This was just perfect ! The cabin is very well done up with a spacious kitchen, dining area and lounge with a very large and comfy sofa. The terrace has amazing views over the lake and we enjoyed drinking coffee there. We used the BBQ which was ideal and Darcy let us use his canoes (for a fee) which we really enjoyed. According to my daughter "this was the best place we stayed in Canada". Sitting on the pontoon reading was very relaxing, and diving off it was also fun. We thoroughly enjoyed the quiet, away from the more touristic places and would stop here again.

I bought this property in 2010 after falling in love with the area. Since buying it, I have completely renovated the cottage and have added a huge deck and floating dock. My friends and family (2 teen-aged daughters) enjoy all that the area has to offer including boating, watersports, atv'ing, snowmobiling, fishing, exploring, fires by the lake and the quiet wilderness surrounding.
