About this property

Charleston Lakeside Retreat is a boutique “resort” that was originally built as a church camp in the early 1900’s. It consists of 5 rental cabins, owner home, seasonal boat slips and a small boutique.

Spread out over 2 acres on a peninsula, the property offers plenty of opportunity for a restful vacation. The cabins are situated in a "U" shape in groupings of two with a large shared lawn and spectacular lake views.

We have docks on either side of the peninsula. One side offers incredible views with dockage for your own boat. The other side offers deep swimming and seasonal boat slips.

Our guests enjoy shared use of kayaks, and SUPs (stand up paddle boards) during their stay. Fishermen are welcome to enjoy our fishing kayak.

Boat/trailer parking is available for guests with their own boats pending availability. Please contact us prior to booking to confirm availability as dock space is limited.

Linens are provided. Guests are asked to bring their own towels and to leave the cabin neat and tidy upon departure. If you are unable to bring your own towels, they are available for rent.

Great getaway!

Clean, tidy, cute little cabin overlooking the bay. The full kitchen was a blessing for us, and made a weekend with the kids way easier. Check in was a breeze, it was great having the little convenience store across the road for last-minute essentials (and some treats!). Very close to the provincial park, and we were pointed to a great country market just up the road with some fresh veggies, preserves, and steaks for a nice dinner. Our only regret is that we didn't book a couple more days.
