Paradise found in this beautiful walk-on waterfront oasis on Cowichan Lake. The fully functional off-grid home on 0.71 acre was built in 2007 with attention to character and space while remaining low-impact on the incredible natural environment. The A-frame design provides great flow offering 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, huge loft, fully equipped kitchen, and living area. A wall of windows floods the space with natural light and brings in breathtaking views of the lake and mountains. Wood floors and trim offer a rich rustic atmosphere with timber originally sourced from a local Island mill. Power is provided to the cabin by solar panels with back-up generators while Starlink satellite keeps you connected. Soak in the tranquil surroundings on the south facing deck, refresh with a swim off the beach or private dock, or cozy up together under the stars around the firepits. A perfect family retreat for lasting memories and a 5-star vacation rental on one Vancouver Island’s most desirable lakes.More details
