Okanagan hidden gem! Lakefront home & nature retreat with private swim dock!

Welcome to the lake! You’ll start to relax the moment you enter this airy open concept waterfront home nestled amidst an acre of natural beauty. The floor to ceiling windows offer endless lake views from the kitchen, living room and dining room table with room for 8. Designed for relaxed simplicity, you're sure to find the perfect spot to put your feet up.

Step through the sliding doors onto the sprawling wood deck, lounge for hours in a shady Adirondack chair or step down to your private dock complete with swim ladder and canoe. Twin Lakes offers crystal clear water for the perfect day of swimming, sunning, fishing, or boating and is the perfect summer escape from the motor boats and crowds of larger lakes.

Enjoy the expansive yard complete with picnic table, fire pit, and large sand sport court perfect for some friendly cornhole or badminton fun!

After a day of fun in the sun, mix your favorite happy hour drinks in a fully stocked modern kitchen or spark up the grill for a gathering under the endless stars. At bedtime, cuddle up in a cozy main floor bedroom of your choice– one king and one queen. Upstairs offers a larger bedroom complete with 4 double beds (great for groups and large families) and a separate lounge overlooking the lake with a convertible king or two twin XL beds.

Our quaint little slice of paradise is minutes down the road from Twin Lakes Golf Course, and just a 20 minute drive from Penticton, Oliver and Keremeos. Whether you’re a golfer, fisherman, wine taster, or sunbather, you’ll be sure to make memories to last a lifetime.

The perfect lakefront getaway!
I can't say enough about the beauty and comfort of this natural oasis. There is so much space to yourself on the lakefront with the big yard and private dock. The water is warm and clean. We had deer, quail, and osprey around everyday, and turtles and fish off the dock! The house was above expectation for a rustic cabin on a lake. Modernized and very comfortable. The weather was really hot so we appreciated the AC upstairs. We worried the single bathroom would be an issue but we spent so much time outdoors that it was no problem at all. The hosts were so great to work with too! Happy to find this hidden gem in our search for a lakefront experience that didn't come with all the noise and congestion of the bigger lakes! Our only complaint? We didn't stay long enough and will definitely plan for a week or two next summer.

Dreamy stay at the loveliest lake
My friends and I had a lovely stay at this gorgeous oasis. Our own lakefront dock, just to ourselves was exactly what us city crew needed to completely unwind and relax. The lake is refreshing and warmer than most BC lakes and it is lovely to swim in. There is abundant wildlife to see including loons, eagles, hawks, deer, turtles and fish. The cabin has everything you would need, a true home away from home!
