A great year round place on the lake to gather with friends and family. Timber frame style cabin. Two sided indoor stone fireplace, Granite counters, heated slate floors, fold way glass dividing wall for quiet time, 72” tv, rustic log pole beds, and bunk beds. Decks on two levels, and third near the lake, seasonal outdoor shower, year round hot tub, 2 bbq’s, 2 outdoor eating areas, outdoor patio, stone fire pit, great sunsets, calm waters, and plenty of things to do in the local area.

Other commitments have us spending less time at the cottage. We hate to see such a great spot not being used. When looking at the listing on VRBO/Home Away, be sure to check that it is Canadian Dollars, not US Dollars.

Located in the restricted area of Victoria Beach. The restriction means you cannot drive your cars to the cottage from the last week or two of June till September long weekend. You park in a parking lot and take your items to the cottage either walking or by renting a taxi for $10-15. The restricted area is a great feature if you are familiar with the area, everyone bikes, or walks where ever they go. A real laid back feel. Our cottage is 2600 Sq ft. 2 story with Vaulted Ceilings, Wood Floors and Heated Slate Floors, Post and Beam Style construction built with Local Pine and Douglas Fir from BC. 4 large bedrooms that sleep 8 adults and 4 children in bunk beds. Bunk beds are rated for children only. 2 - 4 piece bathrooms, large living room with large stone - 2 sided fireplace, kitchen with Quarter Sawn Oak cabinets, Stainless Steel Appliances, and Granite Counter tops including a bar top sitting area. The dining table can easily sit 10- 12 (we've squeezed in more). When you open up the glass wall that separates the dining room from the porch, you have a second dining room table that we call the (kids dining table), which when closed off at night after dinner we use for games, as the porch table is perfect for Crokinole and Rummoli. The glass wall also blocks sound from the main cabin, as late night Rummoli can become ruckus!! The porch also has a smaller sitting room, with 2 couches and a chair to enjoy the view of the lake with a morning coffee or evening glass of wine. The porch is 4 season, but with the windows opened up, and the windows at the back of the cabin open, a nice breeze can flow through (one of my favourites).

There is a large 2nd floor deck off the master bedroom with access also from outside the master bedroom. This deck has glass panels for a view of the lake, as well as 2 tables for outdoor meals or drinks in the sun. The Deck also houses a hammock which can be moved around to capture either sun or shade.

The deck off the main floor porch on the lakeside has 2 BBQ's, Firepit, Outdoor Sofa, Adirondack chairs, Hot Tub, and Outdoor Cedar Shower.

The lower lake deck with stairs to the sand beach, has wrap around seating to hold many people along with all the beach gear. The beach is a quaint sand beach, and is only accessible by the three cottages surrounding you. You can walk out in the water as far as you like, and it's usually sand bottom the whole way.

There is a Flat Screen TV to hook up electronics, as well as Wi-Fi. We try our best not to use it, as VB is about the community, the beaches and all the great activities. We are spoiled with the calm waters in the Bay, the sailing regatta's every weekend which provide some great photo opportunities, and the private beach just steps from our door.

In the Spring, Fall, and Winter it is no different. Spring and Fall bring great colours, chill in the air, bonfires, and a tranquil, peaceful community. The quieter surroundings also tend to bring out more wildlife.

Winter has a wealth of activities. Great skiing trails at the VB Golf Course. We usually build a small skating rink on the lake for the kids, along with a snow fort. Other activities include the tobbogan hill, skating and curling rinks at the community center. We also snowshoe, and try our hand at ice fishing. If we have interest in the cottage over the winter months, we may also consider renting out our snowmobile, as it allows people to get to areas they have never been, including Elk Island trails, Belair Forest and many other trails through the wooded areas and lake surrounding VB.
