This is our fourth and final leg of our 3 week travel. We were thrilled to walk in the house and find such a comfortable but classy setting. The view will stay with us. Treks to Ucluelet and Chesterman Beach, country market at Coombs,skipping stones and climbing fallen trees at Cameron Creek, salmon fishing off Gabriola, eating supper on the dock,breathing in the air and the view! Playing games in front of the fireplace, hiking the trails- these are our memories we take with us as we leave the lake. So as we take our memories, we leave our blessings and prayers with you.

Life in the US moves At a blazing speed. No time to sit, Little time to read. T mobile and the Blackberry Keeps filling the mind, School, family and work.. Speed up, and you're still behind. Then off to Vancouver Island And the "Lure of the Lake" Peace, beauty, and water splashing the dock Soul quiet when you are awake. So thank you for your home Internet and all Next time we need peace and joy We know who to call!

We went fishing with Smyly Charters and caught 31 salmon, 3 red snapper, and 4 rock cod! House had enough space for us and all of our fish. We loved the linens. Thanks.

All of us had a wonderful time up at "Lure of the Lake" and the surrounding area. Thanks so much for sharing your special rental. It is the best-decorated rental property I've ever been to, and Sproat Lake is such an incredible setting.

WOW-what an amazing place! Fun was had by all (including our 11 mos old Shepard and 3 1/2 year old Daniel). They loved swimming in the lake and cruising the lake on the ski boat with mom and dad. Thanks for all the wonderful memories that have been created at the house! Sproat Lake is a rejuvenating place to spend time and be with family. You have done a wonderful job remodeling the house. It is truely a very comfortable and lovely place to stay!

This is such a remarkable and beautiful house and lake that I wrote a poem that tells it all: THE LAKE: The lure of the lake The cure of the lake. The beautiful sight, The star filled night. The birds and bees, The grass and trees. The sound of the house- As quiet as a mouse. The ripple of the wave So brisk and smooth. Thank you so much. We all had a wonderful time. I send much luck for the next group. Thank you much.

I have been "lured by the lake". The house, the lake, everything is beautiful- so much so that returning home is harder than you can imagine. I feel relaxed, refreshed, and reconnected to the beauty of nature. Thank you for allowing us into your house and sharing such a glorious place with us.
