About this property
EXPERIENCE HOPE AT THE STAND EASY RETREAT
Our beautiful little "A" Frame is just a few steps from Kawkawa Lake near Hope, BC. It has just been completely renovated; new flooring throughout, fresh paint, and full bathroom reno. We are a short 90 minute drive from Vancouver where one can completely unplug and enjoy the scenery. There is an abundance of outdoor activities to do around the lake such as; swimming, kayaking, hiking, and more. If you have a boat, there are two different boat launches within a kilometer of the cabin.
In the surrounding area there are numerous adventures to take; Hell's Gate (Google it, it is amazing), Manning Park for summer and winter activities, Harrison Hot Springs, downtown Hope (carving capital of Canada), Othello Tunnels (stunning), many many hikes to take, gold panning in historic Yale, BC, and so much more.
The cabin has two bedrooms on the main level, both with queen sized beds and the loft has a queen bed. There is a full kitchen (minus a dishwasher) with an extra "beer fridge" in the garage. The cabin is set up for inside and outside cooking and eating with huge decks, front and back. The back deck has glass railings, two tables and a BBQ. There are brand new vinyl plank floors inside the cabin and it was freshly painted in 2023.
The backyard boasts a spring fed creek that is absolutely stunning and runs ice cold year round. There is an amazing fire pit area for campfires. In the summer, if there's a burning ban, we also have a portable propane fire pit so you will not go without!
We use the front yard for playing games like croquet, ladder ball and bean bag toss.
If you are adventurous, we have 4 adult kayaks and 2 child kayaks for use as well as a stand up paddle board. It's just a short walk to the launch to put the toys into the water.
In the winter, we are just a 45 minute drive from Manning Park Resort and some amazing downhill powder and some of the best cross country skiing in the world. There is an indoor pool in Hope just five minutes away. You won't be disappointed. Follow us on Instagram @stand.easy.retreat for more photos and videos.

About the host
Hosted by Kim and Dwayne Farlin
I grew up in Hope and have since moved away. Our family purchased this little piece of paradise a few years back because of it's proximity to Vancouver and my strong roots in the area. We absolutely love our "retreat" and encourage you to come out and give it a try.
Why they chose this property
We are steps away from Kawkawa Lake and our little cabin is spectacular in the summer and cozy in the winter. Whether you enjoy summer activities or winter activities, we've got you covered.
What makes this property unique
The backyard of our cabin is truly our retreat. A huge deck overlooking a spring fed stream and fire pit area is our "happy place".
