This has to have been one of my favourite stays / gems of Air B&B. The cabin is cosy but contains everything you need. It's also the most amazing location. There are a couple short walks round the end of the lake and access on the the Round the Mountains cycle trail. The lake was incredibly peaceful and felt very private. It may get busier in peak season but I dont think that would stop it being perfect for the canoe/kayak that the hosts have available.
With COVID some of the local food stores have closed so not much was open on Tuesday but if we'd be around on the weekend it sounds like we might have been able to ride a restored train. We also had a delightful dinner in the coverted station. And on the Tuesday there were plenty of options in the petite cooking facitilities (plus an outdoor BBQ we didnt try but could have used) and a relatively short drive to Qtown.
The hosts also appreciated our desire for privacy and it was perfect - independent checkin, quiet, spa runnign whenever we wanted it, good communication on where to find the other activities they had available and there was a lot of options,
And the deck of the cabine looked out on to what felt relatively pricate as well (empty section next door iwht big trees an a peak of the lake.
Once again loved this absolute gem!
