Ski holiday
Perfect location on the outskirts of Vernon with a nice view of the lake right off of our patio. This property is within easy access to Sovereign Lake and to the Silver Star Resort. We skied Alpine &/or Nordic on a daily basis and came home to our lovely accommodations at the end of the day. Our hosts shared their knowledge of snowshoeing in the area.

Perfection
Our group HIGHLY recommend this Vrbo stay. This was the ground level suite of the host's main house & studio. Having the Host so close was convenient for us. The house & area was very peaceful and quiet. The VIEW overlooking Swan Lake was awesome. The house was very comfortable, clean and very well equipped. Thank You Christine & Keith - you thought of everything!! We hope to stay again when visiting the Vernon area.

it was a clean and lovely suite with plenty of room for me and my 2 girls. the patio was nice to relax on with a morning tea and the 2 separate bathrooms was excellent. In suite laundry was nice to have even tho we did not use it. The property is clean and has a beautiful view.I would love to see a hot tub to go with that view ;)

A Little Surprised
We had no issues whatsoever dealing with the owners ahead of our arrival. We always got quick, informative and friendly responses and they were extremely accommodating. Locating the house is a bit tricky at first and the road into the property isn't the best. Perhaps we didn't read the description of the property correctly, so we were a little surprised by the close proximity of the owners. The accommodations are part of the home they live in so we could see them occasionally around the property, and could hear them above us, particularly on the day they had visitors. That being said, they were very careful not to disrupt us or make us feel like we were being "spied on." And any noise we heard was during day-time hours - not at night. The home itself is comfortable and spacious and has every amenity you may need. The kitchen is well stocked so it was perfect for us to prepare food to take to a family event we were attending. The views are stunning and the outdoor seating area provides a great place to sit and relax. Overall any negatives were far outweighed by the positives and the hosts were very gracious and welcoming. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

About the host

Hosted by Keith and Christine Kashuba

Host profile image
We love sharing the beauty and charm of Vernon and area with our guests. It is a city with a small town feel and there are many amazing things to see and do.
If you love lakes and beaches we have those, if you like mountain top lakes we have those too. We have golf courses that are world class or just for fun, a Kur Spa-Sparkling Hill that is an original, and if you like to ski, snowboard or nordic ski we have Silver Star Mountain Resort 20 minutes up the hill.
Do you prefer arts and culture? There are art galleries, local artist studios, a jazz club, local musical happenings and concerts. If you prefer to check out wineries, cideries, breweries and our local spirits you will have lots of places to visit and libations to taste.
There is so much to see and do and we are happy to share information about it all with you in our welcome information when you arrive, or before if you request it.

Why they chose this property

Our neighborhood is rural and we love that we know each other. We enjoy getting together or just saying hi as we hike or walk in the area.

What makes this property unique

Ideally located, our property is just a few minutes from Vernon but it feels like you're out in the country. We are surrounded by nature and love looking over Swan Lake and seeing all the beauty around us. On any given day you can see hawks, eagles and ospreys soaring above or enjoy the songbirds nearby.
Staying here gives you backyard access to the Grey Canal Trail if you like to hike and we are just down the hill from Silver Star if you like to ski, snowboard or snowshoe.
