Brings back memories
This cabin on Sheridan Lake was exactly as advertised. Location was ideal, just down the shore from the resort and a quick jaunt to access highway 24. The view was wonderful and we enjoyed our stay very much.

Homey feel with gorgeous lake access
If you are looking for a no-fuss vacation, this place is it. It is clean, and has all of the basics you need to ensure a comfortable stay. The dock and water access cannot be beat. The property owners and the property management company are very responsive, and are there to help if anything is needed. We would not hesitate to stay again!

Nice Cabin for a guys getaway!
Cabin was clean and had everything we needed. Great dock and lake access. Weather was a little cold so didn't spend a lot of time outside (when not on the water). It was nice having the wood burning fireplace inside and the TV/Satellite.

Sheridan Lake House.
Beautiful location and everything you need in the house although could use a little more cleaning of kitchen items. Boat use was disappointing as the oats were heavy and oar locks broken so could not use the lake. Overall really enjoyed the stay and would book again.

Great & comfortble lake front cottage
We really enjoyed our stay at your Sheridan Lake front cottage. We have been taking fishing vacation trips to the Cariboo region for over 25 years and this by far was the most comfortable and spacious accommodations yet. Great location, view, clean, well stocked accessories, comfortable beds & furniture and excellent dock. Really appreciated the lighted dock when returning from a long day on the lake. We hope to visit again on our next trip. Thanks John O

Would recommend!
This cottage was right on the lake (private) and had everything you would need (you bring own towels & linins). Great furniture for family dinners & movies. Kids really liked the play house. Could use a little TLC (few hornet nests ect) but whole family enjoyed our stay along with swimming at the dock and boating around the Bay. Thank you!

A little piece of heaven on Earth !
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this cabin ! Located in a quite cove with amazing sunsets which could be viewed from inside the cabin, on the deck, and on the dock ! The row boat was well used, as was the playhouse by the kiddos ! Our hosts were available and accommodating. We would recommend this cabin to anyone looking for a relaxing and/or playful getaway ! (p.s. We saw fish swim by the dock and jump close by, but they avoided our fishing rods - may have to come back to give it another go :)

As advertised! Great home is superior location.
This a fine cabin in a spectacular location in one of the best coves on Sheridan Lake. Quiet and peaceful with an excellent dock and boating facilities. 3 bedrooms all with comfortable queen beds, and a really nice new bathroom with rain shower etc. Comfortable furniture and big screen TV to utilize if it rained. (It did on our first night) Tough not having laundry facilities but we understand septic tanks and their limitations. Kitchen area is quite small and could use a folding prep table or something similar and some additional items for the kitchen, but nothing of concern. Would definitely stay here again!

Comfortable and a lovely location
The property is easy to locate from Highway 24 and being on a secluded bay was a plus. The dock, outside seating areas, and the fire pit are wonderful. There is also an outdoor fire table, but we did not make use of this. The barbecue and large fridge were appreciated, as were the many seating areas, both inside and out. The beds and furnishing are comfortable and all the decor adds to a very "cabin-y" feel. The ad for the property does state that there is no dishwasher, but there is also no laundry facility on site, nor is there any A/C (for anyone who cares about that). Also, the ad states that there is internet access, but there is no wifi. There is good cell reception, so internet would come from one's own data. There is also no outdoor trash bins. All garbage must be kept inside and transported to a nearby community waste site for disposal. Also note, the entrance to the driveway is gravel and a bit steep and narrow. We were pleased with our stay and enjoyed ourselves immensely. The host, Don, is very responsive and provided a lot of valuable information beforehand. Thank you for making our vacation easy and enjoyable.

Beautiful property and perfect stay
Had a wonderful time and the owner was very accommodating, patient, and prompt in responding to messages. Had some complications arise due to the wildfires this summer, but Don was happy to keep us constantly updated with changes to conditions and keep the dates open for us on the chance that things got better. We were able to book the trip with no problems and had a great stay! The cabin has great heating, very comfortable beds, and lots of areas to relax outside. Would recommend to others and hope to stay there again!

Great family Vacation
We thoroughly enjoyed our vacation here! We had 4 adults, a 1 year old baby and a dog at the cabin. It was so nice to be able to have a place for the dog and he loved to swim. The cabin was safe to have the baby at. The rowboat was a nice way to enjoy the lake. We also found the cabin well stocked with all the little things we needed, blankets, coffee filters, soap, garbage bags, aluminum foil etc. "Rustic" is not the word we used to describe it, it was "perfect".

Sheridan lake cottage
The guys and myself had a great time at your cottage. The views from the upper deck are amazing! Misty with the morning coffee and the beautiful sunsets after a great day of fishing. Thank you so much for the use of your boat. Plenty of room for the five of us. A fabulous time had by all, hoping to get back soon.

Very nice place
We enjoyed our stay at Sheridan Dreams. The cabin had everything we needed and was big enough for all 7 of us for one day when it rained. It is a little on the rustic side, something we expected for a lake cabin. Location in the bay was really nice to get going on our kayaks. We particularly enjoyed the camp fires when our adult kids joined us. The dock is very nice to both swim from and take off from with our kayaks. We would definitely stay here again. Our hats off to the owners. Thank you. Warren

We love the Cariboo and visit our place as often as we can. We love to fish, swim and boat on the lake. The water is crystal clear and warms up nicely in the summer for fantastic swimming.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with it due to its great location. It's facing west so we get gorgeous sunsets and are in a secluded bay.

What makes this property unique

Beautiful sheltered bay. One of the best locations on the lake.
