About this property

Million Dollar View! Clear, Clean Sproat Lake. 2300.00 Canadian/Week

We have a great place on Sproat Lake, Vancouver Island. We book (by the week) Sunday to Sunday. Check in is 4:00 p.m. and check out is 12:00 p.m.

Our place is on Taylor Arm Drive of Sproat Lake (if you have ever been to Tofino, Long Beach you see this arm from the highway). It is a beautiful lake, clear and clean. Spectacular scenery.

I live on the property and am always here. I have 6 grand babies and they do spend lots of time with me during the summer. You share the dock with me and my family.

The suite you will rent is on the upper floor. It has two bedrooms each has a queen size bed and a set of single bunks. The kitchen is fully equipped with dishwasher, microwave etc. There is internet . The bathroom has a tub/shower combination. Bath towels and linens can be supplied but you must wash and dry on your way out. I have a laundry room with 2 washers & dryers available for your use. Bring your own beach towels. There is a propane bbq available (on the ground level) for your use. At the water there is a large dock with sunken stairs, shade structure, chairs for your use (you share the dock with me & my family). There is a firepit ( down at the lake) which can be used if there is not a FIRE BAN. If you bring a boat there is space to dock it (just let me know ahead of time).

The cost is $2300.00 Canadian/week based on a family of 4 with a charge of $25/each additional person/night.
And a cleaning fee of $90. Your dog is welcome but there is a $20/night/dog fee .

Very comfortable! Very affordable!

Sproat Lake is amazing
Great location with a nice dock on an excellent part of the lake. The kitchen in particular had everything that we needed, though the beds were a size smaller than advertised (doubles vs queen) which may or may not matter to you. Our kids enjoyed having other kids around. There are a lot of people and activity on this property at all times, esp in summer.

Great vacation
We found the apartment spacious enough for the 7 of us. Lots of place to hang wet towels and swimsuits. The kitchen has everything your heart can desire. The lake wasn't too busy and the water is very swimmable. We had our own SUP, but because we could use the Lyle's SUP's and kayaks, we all could go out on the water together, which was fabulous. My youngest kept on saying this was his best vacation ever.

This property exceeded all expectations! We knew we would enjoy the week but wow! Kim greeted us upon arrival and showed us around our HUGE apartment. Our group included my husband and I, our son, his partner and our granddaughter. I almost forgot our huge dog. All of us felt at home right away. Anything you needed was there and if not, Kim produced it. Beautiful lake, swimming wonderful…..I can’t say enough good things. Thank you Kim and family, we will be back.

Great week at Sproat Lake!
The photos do not do this place justice. It’s a big apartment on the top floor of the house with private entrance. Large kitchen, bathroom and living space with a private deck. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen is very well stocked with everything you need. We enjoyed borrowing the kayaks and paddle boards and many toys on the dock. My kids loved the diving board and water mat. I washed the sheets and towels we used easily with 2 washers and 2 dryers on site. Kim was a kind and helpful host. Hope to be back again next summer.

FABULOUS!!
We had a fabulous time at Kim’s Sproat Lake property!! Everything was exactly as listed and described. Even better!! The upper suite is fairly large and comfortable. It suited me and family very well. The lake is lovely. The dock is massive! Kim has tons of water toys, our teens loved the kayaks!! They used them everyday. They discovered a rope swing directly across the lake from Kim’s place. They loved it!! Several lounge chairs and side tables on the dock. We got to meet Kim’s grand kids a few times during our stay, they were all so adorable, and so very polite! We loved every minute of our vacation and hope to come back again next year!! Thanks Kim!!

Good spot for lake vacation
Kim was a great host, good at communicating and easy to get a hold of. The listing is very accurate, you are on the property and she is there with family members. Wasn't an issue, everyone was friendly and accommodating. It's a bit of hike to water, so not good for those with mobility issue - not a problem for us either. Swimming area and dock were great. Not too far from town if weather turns or need supplies. Thank you to Kim for a pleasant week.

Sproat Lake Paradise!
My family LOVED Kim's Sproat Lake property and have already made plans to return next summer. This upstairs apartment was extremely clean and very well stocked. It had everything you would ever need to make yourself at home for a week (or more!) It is nestled up in the trees and kept very cool during some very hot days. The kitchen had everything you would need to cook and even bake if you wanted. Though there is only one bathroom it is extremely large and handled our group (some days up to 7) perfectly. It is a bit rustic but it is impeccably maintained and honestly it just emphasized the fact we were on holiday. There is a large dock where we kept our boat for the full two weeks. We also had use of a variety of water toys including kayaks, paddleboards and various floaties. Kim's grandchildren stay with her during the summer and we would somedays share the dock with her and the kids for a bit. There was plenty of room for all of us and our guests. I must say, they are great kids and we enjoyed our interactions with them. Kim has obviously put a lot of thought into her vacation rental and it shows. She is also a great communicator. We honestly can't wait to get back to that gorgeous, clear, warm lake again next summer.

Significantly misrepresented... you are sharing your vacation with the owner!!
Overall, this is a nice high bank property (set back from the water), great dock with a boat slip and comfortable 2 bedroom suite that is pet friendly. There are multiple dwellings on the property (pictures are misleading). What the ad and the owner don’t tell you is that you are sharing the house and vacation week with the owner, her grandchildren ( ages 3-6) , her adult son, his male friend and another 4 yr old who happened to be visiting. The owner lives in the ground level suite of the house. The rental is upstairs. There is a steep walkway and driveway (owner and family drive a quad up and down multiple times per day) to the beach and dock. We were extremely disappointed in this VRBO experience and perhaps it was bad timing as our week lined up with the owner having 6 additional guests, including 3 very loud young grandchildren, which does not meet the PHO order for Covid 19 rental restriction. The owner did not seem to understand that we are in the middle of a pandemic and should not be exposing her guests to others. We had no idea from the ad that this was going to be a shared holiday, shared dock,etc. We had next to no privacy. The owner and her extended family would make their way down to the dock most days by 11am and leave between 5-7pm. It was very uncomfortable and confusing, especially for my teenage children. We spent a lot of time on our boat!! We have been coming to Sproat Lake for 12 years and have never had a bad experience. We definitely won’t be back to this property and would warn you to read the fine print! Other minor annoyances included not having a bbq on the deck off of the kitchen. It is down the stairs at the next building.

Kim’s place is PHENOMENAL! We would absolutely stay here again! My husband and I stayed along with my sister and brother in law with four kids between us (two 3 month olds, 2 year old and an almost 4 year old) and our dogs. It’s a very kid and pup friendly place. Kim has been doing this for years and it shows, the accommodation was super clean and well thought out - she has everything you’ll need and it’s organized perfectly. The dock was beyond expectation and we spent every moment we could out there. We had a couple of rainy days and drove out to Ucluelet for one of them - a beautiful drive! There’s a place to dock your own boat and lots of different water toys for the kids to play with. I really can’t say anything bad about this place and I wish I was still there!

Great Lake Front property
My family of 4 stayed with another family of 4 for a week and had an amazing time boating and swimming. Kim has her grandchildren visiting and we saw them a little bit on and off during the day. My son enjoyed playing with her grandson. The place is well equipped in terms of kitchen/bbq/bedding/pool noodles/deck lounge chairs. There are some nice trails to explore just across the road too.

Magical Vacation on Sprout Lake
This is our fifth time staying at this property and it keeps getting better and better each time. The setting is magical and creates a poetic undertone for one’s soul of peace, tranquility and renewal. Kim, the owner, is so gracious and kind and makes you feel like an extended member of her family. So wonderful.

Great Time on the Lake
It is hard to say what the best elements were, since we had such a terrific time! Each bedroom had a comfortable queen bed in it, plus a bunk bed-not granny's old hand-me-downs! The house has a large and well appointed kitchen with all the necessary items in it to prepare your usual food. The living room is spacious, and comfortable. The house was very clean, and all our needs were met. The swimming area is excellent with a large dock and lots of toys to play with. There is no beach-just a stoney area-so not ideal for toddlers. There is a log a boom to delineate the swimming area, a diving board, a small raft and the cleanest, clear water imaginable. Even when the weather was not perfect, the water was inviting. There are a couple of river kayaks, a paddle boat and a row boat available as well. Everything is in good condition. Best of all was the raft, nicknamed Tippy Island which we had lots of fun on, as it see-sawed from one side to the other challenging our balance skills! Best of all, the owners, Kim and Dan were very welcoming and helpful. I would definitely recommend this to others. There is a little noise transfer from downstairs, and the house feels a little dark, but otherwise is very comfortable and a very good value for the price. An excellent choice for our family, with children aged 11, 8, and 6.

Beautiful, Relaxing & Fun Family Get Away
What a fantastic cottage get away to a beautiful clear & warm lake. The scenery is amazing & tranquil and the clean facilities & amenities are more than I had imagined. The kitchen was equipped with more gadgets than my own. On top of that, the owners are wonderfully sweet & generous. Having 2 kayaks and a row boat to use daily was so much fun, we used them all multiple times a day. The swimming area has a diving board & a very entertaining "Tippy Island" which proved to be loads of fun for all ages. The private dock was like being at a resort with resort loungers and a tent for the shade seekers, just better because you didn't have to reserve your spot. The owners were so kind and brought out lots of fun water toys for the kids to use and even took them cliff jumping one day in their motor boat. The kids want to come back here every summer now for their holiday. Kim & Dan were very accommodating and we really thought the "Sproat Lake Wave" as we drove off was super cute. I would highly recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a family or group get away. Thanks for a fabulous time!

About the host

Host profile image
Our lake place has been in the family for 40+ years. It is the favorite gathering place for family and friends.

Why they chose this property

We were fortunate to have this fabulous vacation spot in our family. Our children grew up on the lake during the summers. Hanging out with cousins and new friends.

What makes this property unique

Because there are no street lights or city lights we get incredible night skies. You see stars like you have never seen them before.

We have always enjoyed the fact that there is no schedule. Stay up late around the campfire and then sleep in in the morning. Wake up and jump in the lake.
