About this property

Runaway Express Coach

Our little caboose seems to have escaped the Kettle Valley Rail Line; offering a slice of peaceful, mountain retreat. The passengers whistle with pleasure as they rest in the queen size luxury bed. Tucked away amongst the rocks, pines and burbling creek; the cute woodstove brings it together as a cozy place for dreaming. In the past two years the railroad tycoons staying here have always rated us 5 stars on cleanliness. Includes business ready wifi speeds of 350 mbps.

John Denver - "Almost heaven, country roads, take me home, to the place I belong!" While this carriage has left the clackety-clank of rails behind it has found new joy with its friends the singing birds, glowing wild flowers, and intense night skies. Our country charm has guests coming back!

~Kitchenette~ You will find our kitchen includes a sink, a hot plate, mini fridge/freezer, basic spices, pots and pans, dining utensils and supplies, and more. On the patio is a BBQ. Since space is precious we don't waste it with extra kitchen items but you are welcome to request things like blenders, toasters, microwaves, etc.

~3 piece bathroom~ You'll find the bathroom is fully stocked with the necessities such as soap, towels, toilet paper, hooks for clothes, etc. It includes a sink with cupboard and mirror, a dual flush toilet, and a large shower.

~Queen size luxury murphy bed~ You will find our queen size luxury bed has shelving beside it for guest's storage needs. It is also a murphy bed that flips up to create room for your indoor dining area.

~Indoor Dining (and business center)~ Once the bed is flipped up to create more space, there is a table that folds down that you can use for dining or business purposes.

~Closet~ There is a small closet for storing luggage, shoes, etc., which is stocked with hangers.

~Comfort~ Runaway Express Coach is equipped with air conditioning to keep you cool during the hot summer months. It also has a small wood stove and you can use a space heater for colder months. Hot water is supplied through a propane water heater.

~Outdoor dining area~ You can wander outside Runaway Express Coach's door where there is a lovely patio with a small table, 2 chairs for dining, and a BBQ. During the summer months you will find this patio covered by a shade sail and solar string lights.

~Outdoor patio~ A second patio can be found up a short switchback trail where there is a propane fire table and 2 chairs for those lazy evenings and long talks with your significant other. Bonus tip: look for the hidden macramé swing.

~Pool & Hot Tub Patio~ Our pool and hot tub patio is a shared space with your host and other guests. It is located about 150 meters away from Runaway Express Coach, by your hosts' house. You will find a large, heated saltwater pool (open seasonally from mid-May to mid-September) which is about 2.25 meters deep at one end and 0.75 meters deep at the other. You're welcome to enjoy our spa which is large enough for 5 people and has 64 jets, led lights, and a waterfall. Also in this patio space is a pool house where you can change, multiple seating areas with umbrellas, sun loungers, towels, and many pool toys and floaties.
