About this property

Casa Allegro ~ Mara Lake Tranquility ~ An All-Season Paradise

We hope to welcome you to our serene and tranquil little slice of Paradise. Located in the quiet lakeside community of Swansea Point on the beautiful Mara Lake; it’s a true four-season gem.

Our beautiful and private corner lot offers quick access to the lake, and is a short drive to town for any of your shopping needs or to eat at any of the delicious restaurants in town, visit the summer markets, mini-golf or some famous D-Dutch ice cream!! It is also within half an hour drive from a handful of wineries, Salmon Arm with their waterslides and the drive-in theatre in Enderby! An absolute must do with the kids – it’s one of the last three in all of BC!

During the summer months you can enjoy the air-conditioned cabin, large deck with two-person recliner couch and patio table for those summer BBQ dinners. The large, completely fenced yard, is a private oasis with a grass area for the kids, kicking a ball around or getting your tan on and a fire pit for roasting marshmallows in the evening (as long as there is no fire ban – please check before you burn). The yard is treed in and you almost feel like there isn’t a person around. Within a quick 5-minute walk you can access the lake through multiple park entrances with sandy beaches and playground equipment. There is the Windsor Road Boat Launch at the end of road from the house which is public access with a dock to tie off at while you load your supplies and offload boaters.

The home has ample space for large families or two families travelling together. There is a well-stocked kitchen, lots of pantry space and all the appliances you could need. The ensuite bathroom off the master king bedroom has a standup shower and the second bathroom has a bath and shower combo. There is a large dining room with a gorgeous wood table for those big family dinners. You’ll enjoy the quite of the home and all of the natural light that shines in through the many big windows. TV, wifi, some board games, cards, dice and a radio are all here for the nights you just want to stay in and relax after a long day of sun and fun on the lake. Bedrooms are spacious with quality linen, comfortable beds and closets in all 3 rooms!

Our large yard has a long front driveway with enough room for at least 3 cars, and the back yard can handle trucks and boat or sled trailers without a problem! No shortage of parking space for all your toys!

In the winter this cabin is sled in and out accessible with trails just across the highway heading up Mara Mountain Hunter’s Range. After a long day of riding and being out in the snow sled back into the yard and hop straight into our new hot tub to relax those muscles and warm up!!! There is a propane fireplace in the home to give that extra cozy cabin feel on those snowy winter days and nights. If skiing or snowboarding is more your thing there is mountains in Vernon and Revelstoke only a 50 min drive away either direction.

Getting away from the city any time of the year has never been more relaxing or serene – we are sure you will fall in love with Swansea Point just like we did and want to return again and again!

We welcome furry friends – please be sure to clean up after them! This helps to keep the grass nice and the yard clean for all who visit. There is a $50 pet fee.

Thank you so much and we hope you enjoy your stay!

Perfect family spot

This property checked all of the boxes for our Shuswap stay! The hot tub, fenced yard, fire pit, quiet area and close proximity to area amenities was perfect for us. The house was clean, well stocked and comfortable! Krista was very responsive to all of our questions. A big thumbs up!

Fantastic

We came down for the family day long weekend to go sledding with our kids and girlfriends. It was a great weekend in the mountains, found some fresh untouched powder deep in the back of Hunter Range. Came back to the house and soaked our tired bodies in the hot tub, and everyone was in bed before 10, lol.Beautiful house and location. We’ll definitely be back.

Comfy place

We enjoyed the house during our little winter getaway. We were 2 families , the husbands enjoyed snowmobiling in the mountains close by and moms and kids enjoyed the cozy cabin, fireplace and hot tub. We got a bit of snow which the kids enjoyed. Appreciated the abundance of towels and bedding. Hot tub was clear and hot. Streaming services worked perfectly. I chose this cabin specifically because it was dog friendly and had a hot tub :)

This was an ideal property and location.

We were delighted with the house and the location. It was the most well stocked kitchen we’ve ever stayed in. We had our choice of beaches, from super hot and sunny to beaches with trees and shade. We chose to drive to the beach each day as we had a baby in our group and a lot of beach gear. It was only 2 minutes down the quiet community road to the beaches. We loved the deck and sitting there each morning and evening. The air conditioning was appreciated!

Swansea Stay

Our family of 6 adults and 2 dogs enjoyed our getaway at Swansea Point. The accommodations were perfect. Some of the family spent time on the lake, we did a side by side drive up the mountain, we fished and in our relax time enjoyed the house. all amenities were great and the yard was perfect for our trailer and our pets.

Mara Lake Holiday Place

The house and location was perfect for our family to spend the week for our annual summer holiday. The host allowed us to have my family from Kamloops and Salmon Arm to do a BBQ for a family birthday at their lovely place. Lots of room to accommodate the guests. Nobody wanted to go home at the end of our stay. Great place, walking distance to Mara Lake beach, and a short drive to Sicamous and Salmon Arm. You have all the amenities close by and places to explore. The host of this beautiful place responded quickly to us if we needed anything. The Morrison’s from Calgary

Great spot!

We really enjoyed our stay at Swansea Point. The yard was beautiful, the house was roomy, well-equipped and as described. It was wonderful to be able to walk down to and along the beach. Hikes, golf and the town all nice and close. Check in was easy and communication with the owners was prompt. Loved that they had a thoughtful welcome "snack" for our pup. Would definitely stay again.

Beautiful long weekend escape!

This was our first time staying at Jess and Simon’s place and it didn’t disappoint. The place was perfect for our little family. Homey and easy to navigate, close to amenities of town but away from the hustle and bustle, the yard was large and well kept but enclosed so we were comfortable letting our little dudes (toddler and frenchie) roam… all in all, we had a great time and will certainly be back.

Beautiful home and location

The house is very nice, nicer even than the pictures present. The grassy backyard is beautiful, surrounded by lots of trees. The location at Swansea point is nice, with several lake access points. The water level was a bit high when we were there so only a few of those access points are usable right now.
