A mountain road spirals uphill from St. Mary Lake, leading you to a quiet cul-de-sac in the forest. Peeking through the pines is a sun-speckled cedar
cottage perched on the edge of terraced gardens. Large windows overlook a jade green meadow encircled by towering fir trees.
This cozy one-bedroom cottage features a spacious sunny kitchen with skylights, an intimate sitting room with wood pellet stove, and a small sleeping loft for children or guests. The bright bathroom has an exotic floor of wooden planks over river stones and a clawfoot tub and shower. For your convenience there are separate laundry facilities attached to the main house, situated behind the cottage.
In the garden below, children can play on the rope swinging from the arbutus tree, while you lounge in the hammock with your favorite book. You can enjoy meals at the picnic table, follow magical trails far into the forest, or just relax and watch the deer munching their way serenely around the edge of the meadow.
A 10 minute walk brings you down to the lake where you can enjoy a refreshing swim, sunbathe on the sandy beach, or paddle a canoe. Ocean beaches and walking trails are only a few minutes away by car, and the main village of Ganges Harbour is a 10 minute drive.
