We're a family of 4 and this was a great set up for us. Convenient location, the house is clean and although small fit our family of 4 great (plus most of our time was spent outside in the water and on the dock). We would stay here again! Easy check in and check out with minimal required communication (which I like).

It was a perfect place for family of 4 adults. The place was spotless and lots of towels were provided. The dock was amazing and large enough to spend the entire day out near the water. Access to the beach had lots of stairs but it was manageable. Just pack what you need to bring all at once. We didn’t even turn in the tv as it was super enjoyable. Driveway is steep and a bit awkward. Would recommend slab king down initially into adjoining driveway then pull into the house parking.

Great location for sun and quick lake access. Comfortable place with lots of towels for the beach.

Mornings were calm with smooth lake water and awesome reflections. Evenings were clear with bright star lit skies and satellite activity.

Second time

The location of the property and the view is why this is the second time we have stayed here. With a private dock, new and clean home and ample space for what we needed it was a no brainer.

Great stay!

We had a great stay at this lake house, and it worked well for us with 2 adults and 2 young kids. We absolutely loved the incredible lake views from every room and the private dock and beach access! The house itself is very nice, although it’s a bit of a small combo living/dining room if you have more than 4 people. We didn’t mind since we didn’t spend much time inside. The location was also perfect. It’s an easy paddle down the lake to the Marina Bistro, or a short drive to all the restaurants in town. We’ll definitely stay again!

Sunshine Beach Christina Lake BC

My family and I had a lovely week at this beautiful spot on Christina Lake. The house was very clean and certainly had everything we needed. The neighbours were very helpful and pleasant. The lake is clear, warm and perfect to swim in. We easily jumped in without hitting bottom. The plexiglass enclosed fire pit area was very pleasant as it provided protection from the wind. The driveway is very challenging to maneuver a car down and around to the only parking spot. It is extremely helpful to have four wheel drive engaged. Keep the air conditioning at 22 or you will find that water drains behind the couch; even when it is set at 20. The gardens need to be cut back as the vegetation was overgrown over the steps down to the dock. Also the parasol on the dock should have a cover. We managed to set up two umbrellas, but they needed to be secured with bungy cords or the wind toppled them over. For the size of the house I did feel that it was overpriced.

Thank you for your feedback, Helen. For clarity, the driveway is gravel not pavement and we can update the listing to reflect that. Since your departure we have been continuously working with the owner and the maintenance team to fix the AC unit, the landscaping and the parasol covering. Our hope is to host you again soon for another great getaway!

Great location!

Lake view was fantastic! Excellent access to lake via private dock. Home was clean. Just a couple of small things. The kitchen could use more and nicer drinking glasses. The garbage bin outside is not bear proof and was tipped over and spread all over by a visiting bear. We ended up moving it to the top balcony so it didn't get ransacked again. I felt bad for the bears as a fed bear is eventually a dead bear. The third bedroom is pretty squishy with no room for bags and no end tables. Had a great week and would go back.

Beautiful place!

We were so happy when we finally arrived after a long 6 hour drive to get here but it was all worth it. The lake and dock were just what we had wished for and the place was so clean. The only things i would say is the house really needs a new bbq because it got barely hot enough to cook our meat. We had to finish things off in the oven. Also could use some ice trays as the freezer doesnt get that cold. Had a great weekend though and good to meet the managers at the end and they are great people.

Fun week

This was a great getaway for our family at the beginning of summer. The house was as advertised, beds were very comfortable, kitchen was well appointed. It was good to have the warning about the steep driveway - our van did fit, but we took it slow. The glass around the lower patio keep the cooler breeze away and made it a great place to sit.

Sunshine Beach cabin rental

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We recently stayed at Sunshine Beach Cabin on Christina Lake. We were 3 Adults and 3 young children. We enjoyed our stay there very much. The cabin was very easy to keep clean as it is all pretty new and nicely finished inside and out. It was the perfect size for us and had everything we needed for a wonderful stay on the lake. Driveway was steep but manageable and we were able to park our second vehicle on the road. Loved that we had an ideal setting for both sunny and shady areas to enjoy our morning coffee or evening wine while soaking up the beautiful view. Would definitely recommend this rental.

Perfect place to relax

Great property. Views are amazing and everything was as advertised. Parking at first was a trick but did not take long to get the hang of it. Small inconvenience for such a good property. Steps to dock and patio are no big deal for most people. We would definitely stay here again.
