Mara Lake Tranquility - Four Season Paradise - Your Home-Away-From-Home!

We hope to welcome you to our serene and tranquil little slice of Paradise. Located in the quiet lakeside community of Swansea Point on the beautiful Mara Lake; it’s a true four-season gem.

Our beautiful and private corner lot offers quick access to the lake, and is a short drive to town for any of your shopping needs or to eat at any of the delicious restaurants in town, visit the summer markets, mini-golf or some famous D-Dutch ice cream!! It is also within half an hour drive from a handful of wineries, Salmon Arm with their waterslides and the drive-in theatre in Enderby! An absolute must do with the kids – it’s one of the last three in all of BC!

During the summer months you can enjoy the air-conditioned cabin, large deck with two-person recliner couch and patio table for those summer BBQ dinners. The large, completely fenced yard, is a private oasis with a grass area for the kids, kicking a ball around or getting your tan on and a fire pit for roasting marshmallows in the evening (as long as there is no fire ban – please check before you burn). The yard is treed in and you almost feel like there isn’t a person around. Within a quick 5-minute walk you can access the lake through multiple park entrances with sandy beaches and playground equipment. There is the Windsor Road Boat Launch at the end of road from the house which is public access with a dock to tie off at while you load your supplies and offload boaters.

The home has ample space for large families or two families travelling together. There is a well-stocked kitchen, lots of pantry space and all the appliances you could need. The ensuite bathroom off the master king bedroom has a standup shower and the second bathroom has a bath and shower combo. There is a large dining room with a gorgeous wood table for those big family dinners. You’ll enjoy the quite of the home and all of the natural light that shines in through the many big windows. TV, wifi, some board games, cards, dice and a radio are all here for the nights you just want to stay in and relax after a long day of sun and fun on the lake. Bedrooms are spacious with quality linen, comfortable beds and closets in all 3 rooms!

Our large yard has a long front driveway with enough room for at least 3 cars, and the back yard can handle trucks and boat or sled trailers without a problem! No shortage of parking space for all your toys!

In the winter this cabin is sled in and out accessible with trails just across the highway heading up Mara Mountain Hunter’s Range. After a long day of riding and being out in the snow sled back into the yard and hop straight into our new hot tub to relax those muscles and warm up!!! There is a propane fireplace in the home to give that extra cozy cabin feel on those snowy winter days and nights. If skiing or snowboarding is more your thing there is mountains in Vernon and Revelstoke only a 50 min drive away either direction.

Getting away from the city any time of the year has never been more relaxing or serene – we are sure you will fall in love with Swansea Point just like we did and want to return again and again!

We welcome furry friends – please be sure to clean up after them! This helps to keep the grass nice and the yard clean for all who visit. There is a $50 pet fee.

Thank you so much and we hope you enjoy your stay!

Another great stay!
Great stay yet again! Property is very well maintained and appointed, love the neighborhood (perfect for long walks when pets are along), and communication with Jess is always proactive and helpful. This is our “go to” spot when we visit Sicamous!

Great property and communication.
The property is quite nice with a very well stocked kitchen and other amenities. We had a small concern that the owners found a solution for and were very quick with communication. Would definitely stay again.

Another wonderful stay
Second year we have stayed at this property and as was the case last year it was wonderful. Great location, dog and kid friendly. Lovely back yard. House was well supplied and clean and the owners were available to answer any questions. Lovely home, we hope to be back next year.

Ultimately enjoyable
This is a very relaxing place. Nice privacy. And quite. We would definitely come back and stay again. It was hard to leave and continue on. Our dog enjoyed the freedom of exploring the yard and not having to be on a leash. Beds are very comfortable. Kitchen is well stocked. The deck is large enough for all. The hot tub was very comfortable as well.

Beautiful long weekend escape!
This was our first time staying at Jess and Simon’s place and it didn’t disappoint. The place was perfect for our little family. Homey and easy to navigate, close to amenities of town but away from the hustle and bustle, the yard was large and well kept but enclosed so we were comfortable letting our little dudes (toddler and frenchie) roam… all in all, we had a great time and will certainly be back.

Revelstoke getaway
We picked this location for a number of reasons, the first being the number of beds available, it was spacious enough to cover our entire group and then some. The updated and cleanliness of the space was a welcome aspect for us, as our previous accomodations were mildly lacklustre, and this brought new excitement to our trip. The hot tub in the back was also a welcome addition for a pre bedtime relaxation. Communication with the owners was always quick and we were able to get any information we needed at a moments notice. The binder with instructions for the home as well as options for things to do in the surrounding area was a nice touch. I would highly recommend this home as an option for anyone looking for a quick and easy place to stay that is turnkey with a fully stocked kitchen. 5 stars.

Great house, great location
Had a great stay at this house. Lots of room for a group of snowmobilers. We used the hot tub every night and it works great! Communicating with the host was easy and painless. Would stay here again for sure!

Great spot!
We really enjoyed our stay at Swansea Point. The yard was beautiful, the house was roomy, well-equipped and as described. It was wonderful to be able to walk down to and along the beach. Hikes, golf and the town all nice and close. Check in was easy and communication with the owners was prompt. Loved that they had a thoughtful welcome "snack" for our pup. Would definitely stay again.
