Great multi family getaway
We really enjoyed our stay for the week. Having two different quarters to stay in was great for two families. The covered patio on the lower cabin was a nice place to hang out on our one rain day and in the evenings. We spent a lot of time at the lake and it was really nice having a private beach, dock and buoy available for use because we also brought our boat. Great views of the lake and Copper Island from the property

Comfortable, Easy & Relaxing Stay
Our extended family had a lovely stay and really enjoyed the separate suits which allowed us lots of family time, but also the ability to have our own spaces. The kitchens were equipped with everything we needed and there was an abundance of items to enjoy/use at the beach and in the water. We did notify the owner of some mice in the ceiling, understanding that this does happen as the weather gets cooler. We definitely plan to be back again!

WONDERFUL!
This is our third stay at this property. As usual, my family had a relaxing and fun time. Many wonderful memories were made. The cabin was immaculate, as it always is. There was everything we needed from cooking equipment to beach toys. The only thing we needed to bring was food and clothes. There were 7 of us and we all had plenty of room. We came with 2 trucks, 1 boat and 1 car and had plenty of room to park. The only thing different this year is that the owners have built a cabin in the front yard and are living there. At first, I was very disappointed of this news and was not sure what to expect. As it turned out, it was really no problem. The owners respected our privacy and I only saw them on occasion.

Disappointed
This was our third summer at this property. The cottage, as in the past, was clean, spacious and well stocked. We love the summers in the Shuswap and enjoyed the water/dock and evenings on the large deck. There was one difference this year. We value our privacy and were surprised to learn a few days before our arrival, that the owner now lives in a smaller cottage at the front of the property. As a renter you no longer have exclusive use of the property. The owner does respect your privacy, but I feel this is something that should be clearly stated on the VRBO description for future guests, as the VRBO slogan is about renting "whole vacation properties".

FABULOUS!!
The cabin was everything we expected and more. The view from the deck was spectacular. It was a great place to have our morning coffee. Also, appreciated the gate at the end of deck as it kept our pets safe. The kitchen was very well equipped and made preparing our meals a snap. The beach was wonderful and we loved all the water toys that were made available for our use. We also appreciated the welcome gift from the owners. It was such a nice touch.

Great Lakeside Family Vacation
This is the second time we’ve stayed at Steve and Karen’s property. It is a perfect layout for extended families. We had 5 adults and 3 kids ranging in age from 7 to 79. There was enough room for everyone to be comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped - no need to bring anything. The views of the lake and sunsets from the wrap around patio were amazing. There is a nicely upgraded fire pit and picnic area next to the lake. The dock was great for swimming, as well as securing our rented pontoon boat. The kids loved the beach area. Steve and Karen were easy to communicate with and they were flexible with us when our plans changed in the context of the pandemic. The only minor irritant we experienced was loud noise from a couple of inconsiderate guests staying at the resort next door who would come back in their boats at all hours of the night blasting music and partying loudly. Unfortunately they were there for the whole week. This was not the case the last time we stayed here so I think it was an isolated incident. In summary we had an exceptional experience overall and I would highly recommend this property for a family lakeside vacation.

my summer holidays
the stove did not work, we had to go with out until Monday evening! when works here we had to be present to protect our stuff. the coffee maker upstairs did not work. the dock was a joke. we had to walk up to our knees in water jut to get to the rickety dock as a 70 year old person we found the dock useless. so we made deal with the neighbor and used theirs. very disappointed for what we paid!! to get upstairs to downstairs you had to walk outside??? I will give Vrbo 1 more try for next year at the Shuswap but at a different summer home. i do have a couple in mind if someone would like to let me know when the 2022 time slots become available??

Blind Bay holiday
The host, Steve, always responded quickly to any questions. He generously provided an extra blowup mattress for our stay as well. We rented both the upper and lower suites. You do have to walk around the house to access the other suite. Both suites were well furnished, comfortable and clean. The upstairs kitchen was very well stocked for cooking all meals. We didn't really use the lower kitchen. The only issue was that the oven did not work. It would have been nice to know that before we arrived, so that we could have planned out meals accordingly. The location was great for us. You have access to your own slice of lakefront with a dock. We really enjoyed our stay at Shuswap Lake and will definitely return.

Great place, exactly as expected
Great place to stay, everything was as expected. The only thing is you have to go outside to go downstairs (not an issue for us) and the road you have to cross to get to the beach/dock is very busy which made me nervous with small kids. We will definitely be back!

Perfect week in Blind Bay
This cabin was the perfect spot for our three families. The two units were ideal for us to have the lower unit with the kids so we could enjoy lots of time together as a whole family, but some separation when needed. The kitchens and were so well stocked with everything you would ever need it was really nice to have washing mashines in both units. The location was so perfect and we spent hours in the water, on the dock and making sand castles. We are already trying to plan when we can come back :) Thank you!
