Glow, a Canvas Cottage with Lake Access

Welcome to Glow at Silver Springs! We offer you a unique experience tucked up into the forest in a canvas cottage with lake access and peak-a-boo lake views! We've mixed the fun of camping with the comforts of a cottage. Come on out and enjoy the crystal clear waters of the Shuswap Lake and hiking through 20+ acres of lush forest. Only booking for two people? Check out our other canvas cottage, Perch! airbnb.com/h/perchcanvascottage Everyone is welcome, including your pets! **Additional cleaning measures have been put in place with the professional cleaning service that we employ to ensure your stay is safe and worry-free. This canvas cottage is well equipped with all the kitchen supplies you'll need for the BBQ with side burner. The side burner is the stove (single) for pots and pans plus we have a flat grilling surface you can place on the BBQ for frying as well. We supply the pots, pans, grilling surface, coffee, tea, spices and more... it's all in the pictures so that you're not guessing what to bring! Groceries and drinks can be purchased from the Blind Bay Village Grocer or our little Eagle Bay store. We're only 25 minutes from Hwy 1, so there's plenty of cell coverage. Our section of beach is just across the road from this family-friendly Silver Springs property and is shared with the Lakehouse and one other canvas cottage. The walk is about 200m downhill and follows the driveway, crosses the road, and down a short path to the lake. There's a boat launch just up the road if you want to explore more of the lake! We're running off the grid with plans to go solar, so in the meantime, we've provided lanterns so that you'll have the place glowing in no time! There is running water which means hot showers (with lake view!), a real toilet, and cold running water to a double sink in the kitchen with a separate tap with properly filtered water for drinking. Internet is available in the parking lot, but it does not reach all the way into the canvas cottage. Like all internet in rural Shuswap, it can be flaky at times. The parking lot is about a 35 meter walk from the canvas cottage along a path. Our property is on a slope, and the driveway to the parking lot is steep. If the driveway is wet, you may need to park at the bottom and hike your gear up 100m to your canvas cottage, so don't pack too heavy. The parking lot is shared with one other guest staying in a canvas cottage on the property. There is plenty of space between the two canvas cottages so that you will have a peaceful and quiet forest retreat. Privacy of our guests is very important to us. We're either a phone call or text away and are always available to help you with any questions you may have. You might even find us in a separate little cabin also found on the Silver Springs property. Silver Springs is 20+ acres of lush forest, springs, and fun hiking. Explore even more by accessing a Forest Service Road located at the very top of the property. Or just put your feet up and enjoy a fire on the deck. If you would like to bring additional people with you to experience the peace and quiet of your vacation at Silver Springs, you are welcome to check out our two other rental options on the property, the Lakehouse and Perch! airbnb.com/h/perchcanvascottage airbnb.com/h/shuswaplakehouse The area around each rental is for the exclusive use of that guest but of course the beach is shared for all to enjoy. There is plenty of space between each rental so that everyone can enjoy their own private piece of paradise!
