Location: Windermere, Lake Windermere, British Columbia Rockies, British Columbia, Canada (Just 3 Hours' Drive from Calgary)
Accommodations: Cabin, 3 Bedrooms + Den, 2.5 Baths (Sleeps 6)
Situated in the Windermere Valley between the Rockies to the east and the Purcells on the west, this gem of a cabin in Timber Ridge looks to the south over beautiful Lake Windermere. Originally built in 1979, the barn-shaped structure underwent a major renovation in 2005 to open the kitchen/living area and enlarge the windows, taking greater advantage of the spectacular view. Emphasis was put on practicality to make this country get-away truly care-free. All kinds of recreational opportunities are available close by, including most notably the community tennis courts and beach. Hiking is literally at the doorstep and you may well spy an osprey from the look-out over the lake or mule deer along the mossy trail.
Summers are gorgeous in the Windermere Valley, but winters are lovely, too. Imagine coming 'home' after a few runs at world-class mountain Panorama (30 minutes' away), having a sauna, and then enjoying a drink by the fireplace as the snow falls softly outside to replenish the slopes for tomorrow.
But you don't have to be a fanatic skier or a golfer to enjoy the seasonal beauty of the Windermere Valley. Just listening to music by the fire-side or reading a book on the deck in the sunshine are legitimate activities, too!
