About this property
Lakefront Cottage Retreat with Sandy Beach
Lake Cottage
Experience comfort and relaxation in this newly updated, single-story waterfront home on Selkirk Lake. Featuring two bedrooms and one bath, the residence accommodates up to six guests and offers picturesque views of the lake.
Step inside to find a bright, open-plan living area with large windows that invite the beauty of the lake indoors. The fully equipped kitchen makes it easy to prepare delicious meals. Gather around the dining table for hearty breakfasts before a day on the water or enjoy a cozy night in the inviting living area, complete with a smart TV, WiFi, and plush seating.
The primary bedroom features a luxurious king-size bed and a generous walk-in closet. The second bedroom is a detached bunkhouse equipped with a twin bed, a full bed, and a twin trundle bed, as well as its own dedicated air conditioning unit. For added convenience, all towels and linens are provided, eliminating the need for you to bring your own.
A washer and dryer are available for use on premises. Laundry pods not included
Step outside to discover 75 feet of sandy beach and a private dock ideal for launching kayaks on calm waters, great for fishing, or just soaking in the tranquil surroundings. The seating area at the end of the dock is perfect for a morning coffee or an evening beverage at sunset. You may even see the majestic eagles who live nearby! Take advantage of the grill for summertime barbecues and a picnic table perfect for al fresco dining.
