Great place
I was surprised by how nice the lake is. I'm not sure if it is because we came in early June, but I'm pretty sure I saw more chipmunks than bugs. Row boats and life jackets were provided to enjoy the lake. The game tables in the game room were a bit worn, but they were playable and provided lots of fun. The only flaw was that the barbacue could use a cleaning. But other than that, it was great. I really enjoyed it.

Cosy waterfront getaway
Jeremiah was a great host! Cabin is cute, rustic and has everything you need plus more than expected. Lake is pretty with lakefront Mountain View’s. We had use of kayak, row boat and canoe. The dock and deck look brand new. Needs a patio shade for me as was quite hot. A dip in the water helps. Thank you so much. We had a blast!

Great weekend getaway close to Kelowna
Weather was fantastic and so were the views from the deck. Hot tub was nice to soak in at night once the sun went down. Cute cottage with tons of games and shows to watch. Comfy beds and pet friendly.

Very poor
We just finished 2 days at the cabin. There was no internet and no cell reception. We arrived home today to find that owner sent a message via VRBO - to which we had no access telling us not to drink the water due to a boil water order! There were no notes at the cabin, no one visited or noted in any way that the after may make people sick. This is completely unacceptable.

Can’t wait to go back to the cabin in the woods
We made some amazing core memories and it was great to get away from the hustle and bustle. Everything we needed was there and the hot tub was perfect for a rainy evening. Lots of games and movies for indoor entertainment. Fishing and hiking was lovely

A nice escape from the city
We had a nice stay for a couple of days. We didn't expect the lake is still frozen. It's quiet and away from many things, only 20 mins to Big White. Lodge is clean and comfy.

Beautiful location . Nice relaxing dog friendly resort .
A little confusing when we arrived as our instructions stated cabin 10 and there are only 8 . We were quickly greeted by the resort owner and he directed us to #1 . Check in was easy , ample parking and the neighbour was nice enough to let our son park his boat at his dock . The cabin has 3 double beds ( pictures show two and a bunk bed ) and a pull out so comfortably sleeps 8 . Kitchen is fully stocked , ample towels etc . The water filtration device was not helpful as very little would come through so I’d suggest to bring extra water . Ample movies for the kids (although the main DVD player wouldn’t open ) Lovely deck to relax on and a great beach just around the corner to swim or take the dogs . Hiking trails about 10 min walk down the road . Thundermountain raceway nearby so we were able to catch the races . Huge hit ! We also floated the Kettle river which is about a 45 min drive . Great weekend to unplug and relax .

An amazing place to get away from the city
This cabin at Idabel lake was rustic but comfortable. Super cozy and clean. There's a hottub which is also really awesome too! The contact for the cabin is very responsive and super helpful. the lake is amazing and there is trout for those who enjoy fishing. The beach is small but there is also room on the dock to lounge and play. Overall it's a great location and a great place to get away from the city. No cell signal which is a bonus. One area of caution is the bugs. they are vicious and numerous. Black flies, white flies, horse flies, wasps, mosquitos, noseums... especially the noseums. They're small enough to fit through the holes in the screen (but the screens do a good job of keeping everything else out). I highly advise to come with an arsenal of bug repellent.

Safe and secluded
We loved being so close with nature. Listening to the loons throughout the day was a highlight. The property was amazing and some areas to walk such as kettle mountain trail. Loved meeting some of the locals too. Only a couple small cons to be prepared for - Mosquitoes at night and sun in the evenings. A screen-like door on both sides would have been nice to let air in. Kids loved being in and boating on the water. Access to the beach is walking distance - no direct water access but it was ok for us. Ample places for parking and very pet friendly.
