Sproat Lake Waterfront House

Southwest facing four bedroom house on magnificent Sproat Lake, voted “BC’s best lake” by CBC readers in 2023. The house is on a .65 acre property that is located close to the head of the Sproat River. Guests can gaze down the lake to Mt. Klitsa, bask in glorious sunsets, swim in warm crystal clear water or watch trout and salmon migrating past the dock. A large new dock has a boat slip that can accommodate a 22 foot boat. Rainbow and cutthroat trout can be caught directly off the dock or from a boat close to the dock (in the spring, early summer and fall.) For those who enjoy hot sun, Sproat Lake (and the rest of the Alberni Valley) often have the hottest summer temperatures in BC. The calm warm waters of Sproat Lake are ideally suited for water skiing and wakeboarding. The property has a large flat area suitable for playing sports such as badminton and volleyball . The house is nicely air-conditioned by a heat pump so guests can escape from the heat . The house has two bedrooms, a living area and a deck both upstairs and downstairs and is therefore suitable for two families . The upstairs has a modern open concept kitchen with a gas stove. The property is also well positioned for day trips to Tofino and for fishing trips in Barclay sound (via the Alberni inlet) and is only a 15 minute drive from town . The rental rates in the off-season are significantly lower than the rates for the peak season of July and August. The house sleep 11 adults ( in 8 beds).
