Cabin #55 on East Shuswap Lake, 25 minute by boat from Sicamous to the cabin, boat access only must have own boat or take boat taxis from The Marina in Sicamous with a $190.00 each way fee. The Cabin started as a 30 foot Trailer with two bedrooms inside with kitchen, fridge, cupboards, all dishes and pots and pans + bathroom porta potti and shower/sinks. Added a living room which has a futon for sleeping 2, sliding glass doors overlooking onto a lovely deck that overlooks the lake, wood stove, laminate flooring throughout, with a new inside flush toilet and shower.
A brand new renovated kitchen overlooking the lower deck and lake with second Fridge, Stove, cupboards,sink, island with a fabulous eating area, all new windows and doors and flooring, new solar lighting throughout and with a BBQ out the back door. Water is fresh from the mountain and drinkable, however we supply two 5 gallon water jugs per weekly rental. The cabin has propane gas for stoves and fridges and lights and has a solar system for evening lighting, generator provided to keep system running, flashlights are a must, solar path lights to the beach as well. There is a lower cabin that has 2 queen beds and a fold down futon, sleeps 3 - 6 persons depending on privacy, with a deck off that cabin as well with patio furniture on each deck. 12' wide x 42' long Dock on lake with two moorings to moore boats at night in case of storms so as not to damage boats. You will need a mooring rope and dock ropes.
There is a full size 42' dock and a fire pit with seating for evening fires by lawn chairs or Bench. The weather is mostly lovely and meeting the neighbours or their renters is a lot of fun, too. Quilts and pillows provided but ask that you bring your own sleeping linens, sheets and pillow cases, towels for the beach and kitchen towels. Hair blower and curling irons are discouraged, solar system will not handle it. There is a Generator to boost the Solar Batteries should you blow the system, this happens when DVD's or lights are left on. One Propane lamps on living room wall for evening use encouraged. A 12' aluminum boat and paddle boat can be used to take boats to buoys.
If my place in not available, I look after two other cabins availability one is 2 bedroom and one is 4 bedroom, ask me about it.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 1992
I am a Human Resources Recruiter in Kamloops, BC, I love the water and spend as much time as i can on the Lake when not travelling. I love to share my piece of paradise with families when i am unable to use my cabin.
Why the Owner Chose Sicamous
After spending almost 10 years Boating on the Shuswap, a rustic cabin came available and that was that. In 1992 we started renovations and additions, and continue every year updating or adding a building, dock etc. Formerly from Calgary, we would travel every other weekend to be on the lake, I learned to Love and respect this peace and quite time with the lull of the water putting me to sleep, after of course a full day of watching skiers and tubers.
The Unique Benefits of this Cabin
The 42' dock is definately a plus, i enjoy sun tanning and entertaining and the dock is definately a people pleaser. Fires in the firepit in the evening, cool shade for those that dont like the sun much, convenience store at the Narrows for most anything even SeaDo Rentals.

Tammy spent her summers on the Shuswap, grew up got married and had her family, she was looking for a place to rent and saw my cabin and fell in love she said. Tammy and her family rented in July 2010 and as it turns out my cabin is 17 cabins away from where she grew up, she was thrilled and so was the family and will come back in 2011. The all had a great time and enjoyed their stay and the emenities

I buy a cabin vacation for my family every year and with our previous cabin rental not renting anymore we were happy to have had the opportunity of enjoying Cabin #55, my son and daughter in law and their two children 10 & 12 from Calgary enjoyed it as my son from Fort St. John did as well. It will be an annual rental again in 2009. Looking forward to good weather again.

Thank you Again Karen for renting your cabin to our family. We enjoy the property, the lake, the new dock, new kitchen etc. We enjoyed puttering and chopping wood and doing odd jobs for you,like making the stone steps more stable, hanging your new solar panels to add juice to the wilderness lights. The second mooring also a bonus for extra boats. Thank you and we will be back for 1st two weeks in August 2008.

Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to enjoy a side by side cabin rental. We so enjoyed the solar lighting system as we were used to candles in other rentals. The 42' dock was great for our two 30' cougar boats. The experience for our two families was fabulous. Great place, we want to book in January for 2008.

It was everything you said it would be, we really enjoyed getting the digital pictures prior to arrival so we could see where everyone could sleep etc. Thank you for the arrival wine, it was lovely. It was a nice experience being boat access only and was happy to rent a pontoon boat from Sea Dog Rentals in Sicamous for this very holiday. We had no problems and enjoyed our stay. From the Cayman Islands to Kamloops BC we thank you.

Thank you for letting us into your home away from home. What a great place to relax and enjoy. It's a kind of place that appeals to the kids, and those looking for romance and fun. Hope we can come back again.
