Beautiful spot on Shawnigan Lake

My family had a wonderful time at this property for our mini weekend getaway to Shawnigan Lake. The home was very well appointed and had everything we could have wanted to enjoy our stay in the cottage. The rooms and furnishings were so comfortable and spacious for our group of 4. Everything was very clean and the host provided us with lovely recommendations on things to do and places to dine at near Shawnigan. The home was located on a beautiful, scenic part of the lake. Spending our afternoons on the dock, sunbathing and swimming was so much fun. Everything went very smoothly with the booking process and the host was timely and responsive to our questions. They even left us a lovely welcome basket with snacks and wine! My kids and I can't wait to go back again! I highly recommend this beautiful property.

Why they chose this property

Shawnigan Lake is the most beautiful place in Canada. You can really do every water-based activity here - swimming, fishing, kayaking, paddleboarding, wakeboarding, boating and jet skiing. Plus, you can go on some really amazing hikes up Mount Baldy and the Kinsol Trestle
