Great family fun Family and I wanted a lakefront stay and this property fit the bill perfectly. Right by the water but in protected from the open lake by the marina area. Kids and I SUP'd and played in the water. Lots of room within the property, kids loved the bunk beds. The marina store had some provisions if you forgot any (bread, liquor, etc). Host was readily available and checkin/out was a breeze. I would definitely stay here again. Great first experience at Koocanusa ##### Michael R.

May 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### The Dock With No Water The property was wonderful and the interior was modern, had air-conditioning which was definitely needed, was clean and fully stocked with pots/pans, utensils, small appliances, etc. you would need to make meals. The furniture and the beds were extremely comfortable. Our host answered my emails promptly and the directions she gave us to get there was spot on.We had brought a small boat with to be on the water fishing and what drew me into this particular rental was the photo of the dock in the water. Little did I know that the water is only there mid June at the earliest so we did not have a dock in the water for the boat ... instead it was a dock in the sand. Lake Koocanusa is drained throughout the summer and autumn months as the dam on the US side uses the water for electricity and for their own downstream uses. It takes until mid to late June for the spring runoff on the Canadian side to refill the lake. Fortunately we did find a spot where we could launch the boat from the trailer into the lake and we were able to enjoy fishing and exploring along the shore. The only improvement that I can think of would be to interject one word into the title of the photo and that would be"seasonal" dock. ##### Joanne A.
