Enjoy family time at this very private cottage. As speed limits are in force along the river makes for a peaceful, quiet, relaxing stay. With much to do; explore the river in one of the non-motorized water crafts, relish in the good swimming as Burnt River is deep with a gentle current, take a day trip to close by beach, golf course or local town.
With a main cottage and 2 bunkies, it provides a variety of opportunities and fun for sleeping arrangements.
Great area for hiking, cycling or snowmobiling as the 85 km long Victoria Rail Trail is easily accessible along most sections of the Burnt River.

Beautiful Spot
The weather wasn't great but the inside of the cottage is wonderful.
Suki is easy to get in touch with and very helpful. The space has many rooms and lots of beds. It was ideal for our party of 10. The walk to the water may be difficult for older renters. Dock is a beautiful place to sit on a hot summer day.
Not enough chairs for dishes and utensils for 10 people. No dressers, bedside tables or table lamps in most BR. Stove wasn't working properly so we had to turn off the breaker when not in use. The BBQ wasnt useable. Completely rusted out. A hazard! The river was shallow (4' deep ?) and very weedy. Not swimable at all. The cottage was beautiful and wouldnt take alot of work to update to meet expectations.
