Enjoy family time at this very private cottage. As speed limits are in force along the river makes for a peaceful, quiet, relaxing stay. With much to do; explore the river in one of the non-motorized water crafts, relish in the good swimming as Burnt River is deep with a gentle current, take a day trip to close by beach, golf course or local town.
With a main cottage and 2 bunkies, it provides a variety of opportunities and fun for sleeping arrangements.
Great area for hiking, cycling or snowmobiling as the 85 km long Victoria Rail Trail is easily accessible along most sections of the Burnt River.

It was an absolute pleasure hosting Christina and her group at the cottage this past weekend. From start to finish, they were incredibly respectful, clean, and responsible — truly the kind of guests any host would hope for. It was an honor to share the space with such considerate people who treated the cottage like their own.
For anyone considering renting the cottage in the future, I want you to know that this is more than just a getaway — it’s a place where lasting memories are made. Whether you're looking for peace and quiet or quality time with family and friends, this cottage offers the perfect environment. It's well-maintained, cozy, and thoughtfully prepared for a relaxing stay. I'm always happy to welcome guests who appreciate and respect the space, just as Christina and her family did.
Looking forward to hosting more wonderful guests in the future!
Communication was great and fast. Only thing was the house temperature was 10 C when we arrived. Took 6 hours to warm up to 20 C. One of my friend got a cold and we had to leave one day ahead. We booked for 2 nights but stayed for only one night
Suki is easy to get in touch with and very helpful. The space has many rooms and lots of beds. It was ideal for our party of 10. The walk to the water may be difficult for older renters. Dock is a beautiful place to sit on a hot summer day.

Beautiful home and property. Very comfortable and maintained! Any questions we had while there were answered immediately. Everything we needed for our stay was there and then some. I highly recommend staying in this cottage for a vacation!
Not enough chairs for dishes and utensils for 10 people. No dressers, bedside tables or table lamps in most BR. Stove wasn't working properly so we had to turn off the breaker when not in use. The BBQ wasnt useable. Completely rusted out. A hazard! The river was shallow (4' deep ?) and very weedy. Not swimable at all. The cottage was beautiful and wouldnt take alot of work to update to meet expectations.
