About this property

Cottage on Kemp Lake

With spacious decks, plenty of outdoor furniture, and a nice dock, this private lake front cottage makes a perfect family getaway. If you have ever dreamed of going out fishing in the morning and sharing that moment with someone, this is the place to do it. Kemp Lake is stocked with trout, so you might even catch breakfast. This quiet location is a short drive from some of the most spectacular beaches and hikes in North America including the Juan de Fuca trail. Cottage on Kemp Lake can accommodate 4 guests. It includes 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom.
The first bedroom has a queen bed. The second bedroom has bunk beds with a single on top and a double on the bottom. The kitchen has a view of the lake and plenty of natural light. It has a full-sized fridge and stove.
There are 2 "kid kayaks" and a paddle boat available for guests. Please bring your own PFDs. If you bring your own boat, please note that only electric motors are allowed on the lake. For those wishing to relax outside, there is a hammock and fire pit for use when it is allowed by local fire regulations. There is Wifi, but no TV.

Ideal summer cabin
This is a modest cottage with lovely outlook on the lake. The outdoor deck and fire pit areas were well thought out. The kitchen was well equipped and the wood stove worked well. The beds were comfortable. I would have expected something more upscale for the amount we paid. The entry gate needs attention. We would choose another property in the off season.

Hidden gem!
We had an amazing time at the kemp lake cabin. Waking up to the pristine lake every morning is a dream. The lake is perfect for swimming and kayaking. We spent every day in the water. The cabin is clean, stylish and well appointed. The best part is that there is a games room with lots of toys and games to keep the kids busy. A lovely surprise for us, as we didn’t expect this! There are kids kayaks to use, a gas fire pit to roast marshmallows, a hammock to laze your day away. It’s a peaceful little gem. There is no laundry though so bring enough clothing for your stay. We’ll definitely be back!
