About this property

Beautiful Waterfront Cabin on Kootenay Lake

Funston Cabin — A Waterfront Haven on Kootenay Lake

Discover the magic of Kootenay Lake from the comfort of Funston Cabin, a custom-built, waterfront retreat nestled in the peaceful village of Procter. Ideal for families, couples, or those seeking a serene lakeside escape, this home blends contemporary design with the warmth and spirit of the Kootenays.

Bedrooms & Baths

Master suite: king-size bed with sweeping westward lake and mountain views. The private ensuite features a Japanese-style soaker tub, placed to let you soak while gazing at the glistening water beyond.

Second bedroom: two queen beds—perfect for guests, children, or a second couple.

Two full bathrooms ensure everyone stays comfortable.

Living & Gathering Spaces

The great room is the heart of the home: three sets of French doors open onto a sprawling deck, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living.

From here, you’ll enjoy panoramic views of the lake and surrounding peaks.

Dine al fresco on the deck, relax beneath starlit skies, or cozy indoors when the weather cools.

Why Funston Cabin Stands Out

Rare direct waterfront positioning in Procter, offering private water access and unobstructed views.

Thoughtful architectural design ensures privacy, comfort, and connection to the natural surroundings.

Top-tier finishes and design, furnishings, and amenities that match (or surpass) what luxury travelers expect today.

Ideal for escapes that balance tranquility and access to all the region’s outdoor gems.

Explore the Kootenay Lake Region

From your doorstep, immerse yourself in the best of the lake region: scenic drives along the east shore, quiet trails, hidden coves, and charming lakeside communities. Nearby, guests often explore:

The arts and galleries in Nelson

Hot springs, including Ainsworth

Hiking, boating, and forest adventures

Local markets, artisan shops, and farm-to-table dining

Whether you’re staying a few days or a full week, Funston Cabin offers the kind of lakeside living people dream about. Let it be your base for unforgettable memories in the Kootenays.

In July and August we generally look for a minimum 7 night stay, and our preferred check-in and check-out date is Friday, but we are willing to be flexible to suit your needs.

This is an incredibly well-appointed home right on Kooteney Lake, and it was the perfect place for our peaceful getaway with our dog. The kitchen amenities are amazing and some serious cooking gets done there! This has been one of our best VRBO finds ever. Ted and Heather were easy to deal with for the booking and check in process, and I highly recommend their property for a stay in the Kooteneys!

Hi Donna, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and for highlighting our amazing views! We’re proud of our usual high cleanliness ratings, so we appreciate you bringing the stovetop and the spiders to our attention so we can address them immediately with our team. Waterfront properties in the Kootenays can occasionally invite a little extra nature indoors, but we always want our guests to be comfortable. Please know that you are always welcome to reach out to us at any time during a stay—we are always happy to step in immediately to ensure everything is perfect for you. We hope to welcome you back to Procter again!

This rental was perfect for our meet up with some special friends. Kitchen was fairly well stocked with utensils and cooking equipment. We brought our own BBQ because we are fussy about clean grills, but there is one on the large deck. The seating area in the living room was very comfortable (different from pictures). One thing that is not pictured on the listing is the bathrooms. The main suite bathroom has a beautiful shower and deep jet tub it was very lovely, and the upstairs shower has a river rock floor-equally nice. The weather was a bit chilly while we stayed and there lake was quite high so we were unable to access the dock without getting wet. The parking is a bit tight, we had two pick ups, and had to be creative with parking as to not inconvenience the neighbor. (Who are very nice people with lots of knowledge about the area.) The host was very easy to communicate with and responded quickly to answer any question. He even took the time to give us fishing information, walking paths, and things to do in the area.The view was absolutely spectacular to sit on the deck and have your morning coffee or a late evening cocktail.We definitely would recommend staying at this listing, we just wish it wasn't so far for us to get there. Thanks for the memories:)
