Om overnatningsstedet

Loghouse Lodge med Glacier View og Private Natural Swimming Pond

Hvis du vil have privatliv, sindsro, en privat naturlig svømmehal og en imponerende udsigt over en gletscher, så vil du føle dig hjemme i dette loghus i den maleriske Squamish River Valley. Squamish River Valley er væk fra den slagne vej mellem Vancouver og Whistler, med kun cirka en time til Vancouver og 45 minutter til Whistler. Dalen er en bred, solrig oase af frodige bomuldsved og alder i den flade dalbund, omgivet af stejle skråninger, der er dækket af gammel ceder, hemlock og gran. Bjergene falder steget over 8000 fod for at kulminere i sne og isklædte toppe af Tantalus Range.

Kabinen er beliggende på en høj terrasse på fem privat træ overdækket hektar. Afhængigt af den årstid, du ankommer til bjælkehuset, møder du en overflod af farverige prydetræer, blomstrende magnolias, roser, lavender, japanske ahorner i smukke appelsiner og røde, persiske perogier, bøg og mange andre træarter. Det store surrounddækket har en pergola, hvor du kan hejse en hængekøje og svinge dig selv til at sove i løvet i et nærliggende vandfald.

I 2013 byggede vi en naturlig svømme dam og regenerering dam. Denne teknologi, der er udviklet i Europa, bruger naturlig filtrering, hvor der cirkuleres vand gennem et vulkansk filtersubstrat og pumpes derefter tilbage i svømningsdammen via et 2 m højt vandfald. Begge damme er omgivet af omkring 200 vandplanter, der giver yderligere vandkvalitetsforbedringer. Der er ingen kemikalier i vandet, og det føles således som at svømme i en bjergsø. Det kræver også et minimum af vedligeholdelse.

Lejligheden har 3 soveværelser i alt, en ovenpå hems og to nedenunder med to badeværelser. Der er en brændeovn i sin egen separate bjælkehytte. I modsætning til mange loghuse er denne designet til at lade maksimalt lysfilter ind i det hyggelige træindretning med 4 ovenlysvinduer, store billedvinduer og overdimensioneret vippe og dreje vinduer i alle fire retninger. Du kan opvarme huset med baseboard varmeapparater, eller bedre endnu, ved at belyse en ild i en østrigsk stil ornamental flise pejs. I 2012 installerede vi et gulvvarmesystem. Vand opvarmes i pejsen i en varmeveksler. Når en kritisk temperatur er nået, pumpes vandet under jorden gennem isolerede Pex rør. Når du har pejsen brølende, vil du til sidst høre en knirkende og det betyder toasty tæer.

Kabinen er børnevenlig, selvom børnene skal overvåges, når de leger udenfor på grund af bjørne (sort bjørne) og pølser (aldrig set en, men de eksisterer), plus der er store klodser, der har om en to-etagers dråbe.

Fra marts 2013 er der en 12 m x 5 m indhegnet uopvarmet naturlig swimmingpool (ingen kemikalier). En lille lejebytte ligger foran huset for 1-5 årige. Træhuset i billederne er omdannet til et bihus. Træhuset er blevet noget usikkert, og bierne har brug for et varmt og tørt sted at bo. Det lille legehus er stadig tilgængeligt for små børn at lege i.

Udover at slappe af har du hele spektret af udendørs aktiviteter til dine fødder. Du kan vandre til et smukt vandfald, nogle 8 km op dalen, svømme i Alice Lake mens du ser på Mount Garibaldi vulkanen. En 20 minutters kørsel bringer dig til Squamish Chief, Canadas forreste klatring Mekka, eller du kan kite surfe i Howe Sound kendt for sine uendelige vinde. Du kan ride din mountainbike på det omfattende trail system, som Squamish har at tilbyde fra begynder til ekstrem. En 40 minutters kørsel bringer dig til Callaghan dalen, langrends- og skovklubben til Whistler. Yderligere 10 minutter fører dig til foden af Whistler og Blackcomb bjerge, hvor du kan nyde skiløb fra november til juni. Hvis du foretrækker kano, kan du starte lige i Pillchuck Creek, der grænser op til ejendommen og padle en romantisk creek til den brede mejdende Squamish-flod, der vinder vej gennem uberørt vildmark mod havet. Eller gå vildtlevende rafting eller kajaksejlads på de vilde Ashlu og Elaho Rivers. For lystfiskere er Squamish og Mamquam Rivers kendt for deres laksekørsler, hvor hundredvis af skaldede ørne samler om efteråret for at få deres andel af proteinet.

En femten minutters kørsel kommer til dig til Brackendale hvor du kan købe dagligvarer eller nyde et solidt måltid i en restaurant. Uanset hvad dine hjerter glæder, vil du være sikker på at finde den her.

Enjoyed Our Quiet Mountain Cabin Retreat

We knew we would enjoy a quiet retreat at this mountain cabin. We knew there would be plenty of space for our family of four to spread out and not be on top of one another. We knew there would be a glacial-clad Mountain View, and a natural pool / man-made pond. What the photos didn’t reveal was how the landscaping and flora have filled in around the pond and cabin. There’s a charming wildness to the trees and plants as you drive up, and continues around each corner as you explore. Truly a plant- and tree-lover’s dream. Thoughtful attention was paid when the owners added a natural pool / swimming pond. The picturesque pond and its habitat-supporting plants are in keeping with cottagecore / cabincore aesthetic. The property is not overly-attended. Plants grow wild. Charming structures (a former treehouse-turned bee apiary, a shed for firewood, a child’s playhouse) dot the landscape around the cabin, but are less-safe for small ones to explore alone. While expansive and secluded, the property’s landscape and overgrowth doesn’t allow for extensive, full exploring. If the owners chose to add walking paths through the landscape in the future It would extend the ability to enjoy this already magical place even more fully. Cabin interior appointments are humble and collected. You feel like you’re getting away to a comfortable, useable family retreat. One bedroom opens to the back porch via French doors, with views from bed to the Tantalus mountains. We hope to return again.

Bavarian Mountain Views!

The cabin was secluded and very private! The road leading up to the property was private and secured with a locking gate. There is a Seminary next door...We'll let's just say we didn't hear anything from any of the neighborhood properties, so we felt we had the place to ourselves. From the back patio, the views were fantastic and reminded me of Bavaria. Took our 1 yr old grandson to the small treehouse and he had fun "scribbling" on the chalk board with the provided chalk. We also took him to the pond and he enjoyed putting his feet into the water and throwing pebbles. The cabin is fantastic, nicely appointed though the wood deck, handrails and wooden areas around the pond could all use a good coat of stain, (aka I didn't trust walking on the wooden bridge over the pond without falling-in, etc.). There is a firepit nearby but the owner said that due to insurance reasons that there are no open fires with the exception of the propane gas grill, so set your expectations accordingly. Considering the shape of the property, felt the price was somewhat high but the views were fantastic!

beautiful, cozy cabin

Beautifully maintained cabin. It is clearly a well loved family cabin with very thoughtful design. Kids enjoyed splashing their feet in the pond and the well-stocked toy chest. Adults enjoyed the views, comfy lounging furniture, and nice kitchen with really high quality cookware and basics like spices, tea, oil, etc. May was definitely shoulder season (too cold and rainy to swim, but it's fire season so a burn ban prevented us from using the sauna) but we would love to come back in summer and enjoy more of what the property and region have to offer!

Fantastic stay off the beaten path

We had such an amazing stay at Monica’s cabin! My husband, mother and two young boys, ages 4 and 1 1/2 stayed for the week. The cabin was clearly used to having children with so many fabulous toys and games tucked away to discover. Our 4 year old had a blast hiking through the woods around the cabin, picking huckleberries and swimming in the pond. We enjoyed the views and remote location. Monica was amazing at communicating beforehand and went above and beyond to make sure our stay went well.

Magical cabin with a breathtaking view

The cabin is something out of a fairytale. This could not have been a better place to unplug with our family and enjoy the beautiful nature. I would recommend this property to anyone and everyone. Monica, the owner, was very helpful and made sure we had everything we needed. The cabin was more stocked than any other VRBO we’ve rented, including a ton of games for the kids. We will cherish the memories we made here!

Amazing home with natural beauty & gardens

This is a beautiful home with a gorgeous garden, pool, meadow and view. It is log cabin style and easily accommodated the six of us, my husband and I our three grown children, one with a partner. It has 3 bedrooms, one has a sleeper sofa and bed, a large common area and giant deck with a view of a glacier. The kitchen was generously equipped with all we needed to make great meals which we ate both on the large picnic on the deck and inside. We swam in the pool, hiked in the surrounding area, and canoed on the river. I have never stayed in such a peaceful beautiful place.

Winter Wonderland

My family and I stayed at this cabin for a week in December. There wasn’t anything that we needed that we didn’t find already stocked. The cabin was charming and inviting, set in the perfect location. Off the back deck there was a beautiful view of snow covered mountains. A perfect place to get away for quiet time with family and to enjoy the beauty of nature. It snowed during our stay, turning the landscape around us into a winter wonderland. It was absolute beautiful. The owner was kind and communicated by email with me to make sure our arrival was smooth. Any questions I had were addressed in quick time. We would stay here again if we turn to the area. We had s wonderful stay!

Deluxe Cabin in Beautiful BC

We had a wonderful stay at the cabin. The cabin and surrounding property are rustic and natural but very well cared for. My children loved the treehouse and outdoor swimming pond, and there were lots of fun things for them to do on the property. The view of the glacier from the deck is amazing. The cabin was well outfitted with everything we needed, and Monica was very helpful in communicating any time we had a question. The location is ideal as well, close to Alice Lake, the gondola, hiking and rock climbing. We hope to come back for our next family vacation.

Log House Lodge Squamish

We stayed at the log house with friends from Australia and we were just captivated by the house and its setting. It was beautiful with the glacier view from the decking and the lovely garden and natural swimming pool (very cold but refreshing at the end of a busy day). The house was extremely comfortable and well equiped. It was really nice to sit down at night in front of the fire. We enjoyed the feeling of being away from the "madding crowd" but the location was still close enough to enjoy visits to Whistler, Alice Lake and The Chief. The Gondola to the top of the Chief was a really good experience Monica and Mathias were really helpful with the booking arrangements and information about the house and places to visit. We really hope that we will be able to return to the Loghouse and would recommend it for a very relaxing break

Breathtaking

We spent a full week at the cabin. Absolutely everything we expected and some. The views of the glacier were spectacular. The property was secluded but close enough to town to get everything we needed. Great location for day trips to Squamish, Vancouver and Whistler. The cabin had everything you could possibly need and the owners were just an email away if we had any questions. The property is well maintained and definitely a unique vacation destination. We would recommend it in a heart beat!

Idyllic Setting and Ideal Hosts

From the moment we drove up, it seemed like we had been transported into a fairy tale. The setting was hard-to-believe gorgeous, with lovely natural gardens and swimming pond, beautiful trees and mountain vistas off the deck of the handsome cabin home. A convenient location for trips to Vancouver and Whistler, and a very peaceful place to relax afterwards! Monica and Matthias were most accommodating; not getting the chance to thank them in person for their hospitality was our only regret.

Lovely, Relaxing Home

Just the respite my kids and I needed to recharge in this peaceful and serene setting with stunning views. Easy drive to hiking and lots of options to choose from. Feel like you are so far removed from the hustle and bustle but close enough to town if you need something from the store. The house is stocked with pretty much everything you would need. Our only recommendation would be to add a microwave to reheat leftovers quickly or for popcorn. :) No complaints though because we thoroughly enjoyed our time at this beautiful home!

Great family Getaway

I recently spent just over a week at Monica's Loghouse Lodge with my wife, two kids (6 months and 2 1/2 years) and my parents. This is a phenomenal location with great views of glaciers from the back deck hammock as well as a much needed swimming pool (the early part of our stay had temperatures in the mid-high 30's). It was exactly the kind of break that we were looking for. Close enough to Vancouver that we didn't have to take extra vacation days to get there, but far enough removed that there is spotty cell access and you are truly disconnected. Monica was very helpful both prior to our trip (making sure she accommodated our young children) and while we were there (questions about garbage removal, etc). Overall the whole experience from booking, to arriving and enjoying our stay was very personal and welcoming. If you are looking for a place that's a true getaway I highly recommend Monica's Loghouse Lodge.

Beautiful retreat in Squamish Valley

Our group of 6 spent 3 nights around New Year's Eve at this great property in Squamish. The house itself is a beautiful, chalet-style place, and we particularly enjoyed the fireplace and the fabulous views of Tantalus from the back deck. For us the highlight of our stay was the wood burning sauna; what a great way to ring in the new year! The property is located nearby the Squamish river and mountains, and we made daily hikes around the area, which was great. The kitchen was well stocked too, and the owners were friendly and made it easy to organize our stay. Thanks Monica and Matthias; we'll definitely plan to return next year!

Værtens profilbillede
Together with my wife and daughter we live in Vancouver. Over the course of 5 years we mostly built the log house ourselves, starting with clearing the lot, then built the wood shed, then the sauna. I work as a geoscientist for a Vancouver consulting firm. My wife is a financial planner.

Derfor valgte værten dette overnatningssted

This property I stumbled across when doing a rock fall hazard assessment for the original owner of the quarter section. Despite it having been densely forested, I knew that I wanted this place. The scenery is divine and the tranquility is amazing. Glacierized mountains rising steeply almost 9000 foot (2700 m) from the valley bottom, bald eagles, salmon, black bears, hiking, rafting on the local rivers make this a very special place only an hour drive from the hustle and bustle of Vancouver.

Derfor er dette overnatningssted unikt

The five acres allow one to roam freely and to hang out on the porch without been seen by neighbors. There is a creek on the western perimeter of the lot that leads into Squamish River. Salmon can be observed in the fall as well as abundant bald eagles during salmon season. Turkey vultures circle during the summer. You can back country ski right from the property up Mount Cloudburst, come back and enjoy the wood-burning sauna. Jumping in the snow and nobody but the odd bird will watch you. There are plum trees, apple trees, and cherry trees on the property, help yourself if you feel like it. Hiking trails are nearby and you can test your strength biking up a steep gravel road right behind the house. As of April 2013, an eco swimming pond, roughly 20 m long and 12 m wide awaits those of you who like to swim in water without addition of any chemicals. This pond has been constructed by a German pond-maker. It is naturally cleaned by an intricate filtration system and through the bacterial action of a large variety of water plants in the regeneration pond that borders the swimming pond.
