DRIVEWAY
As you drive through the cut-de-sac you will see Eagle Nest Retreat at the end and on your right. There is a large driveway, suitable for multiple vehicles. During the winter months, we highly recommend a 4WD or AWD vehicle.
ENTRANCE
As you enter the property, you arrive the open plan living area. To your left is a small and quaint half bath, to your right the large fully equipped kitchen, and straight ahead is the lounge area.
KITCHEN
The kitchen comes equipped with all the large and small appliances that you would expect in a family kitchen. You will be able to whip up a light snack or full meal in no time. There is a supply of salt, pepper, cooking oil, and coffee for you to use during your stay. Adjacent to the kitchen is a large wooden dining table, long bench, and chairs.
LOUNGE
After a busy day, this is a great area to unwind in. With vaulted ceilings, ceiling fan, large rustic cabin style wooden stair case, and gallery landing there is so much natural light in the space. So, make the most of this tranquil setting and snuggle up on the sofa, put your favourite film on, or curl up and read a book. Please note, the pellet fireplace you see in the photos is not to be used. From the lounge, there are doors out to the beautiful deck area.
DECK AND FIREPITS
The sheltered outdoor dining area with BBQ and fire pit overlooks the large back yard and the Columbia Lake. The views are quite wonderful from here. Please bring your own wood for the fire pit (please check for fire bans first). As you look towards the lake, to your right is the second fire pit area. This is a little more rustic and along the boundary line with our neighbours. Please note, there is no fence in the garden.
BEDROOMS
For your comfort, all our beds are dressed in hotel quality linens. There is a bedroom with a twin over queen bunk, another bedroom with a twin sized bunk, and a master bedroom with a huge chunky wooden framed king bed. There is also a ceiling fan and lovely garden views. All the bedrooms have a closet with drawer and hanging space.
WORK SPACE AND EXTRA BED
If you need to work away from home you will find a large dedicated work space on the landing that is ideal. And if you need an extra bed you will find a queen Murphy bed here too.
INSUITE LAUNDRY
Opposite the workspace you will find an alcove with a washer-dryer. You are welcome to use this during your stay.
BATHROOM
Next to the laundry area is a freshly renovated and exquisite full bathroom. There's a fully restored clawfoot tub with perfect lake views, and a large open shower with tiled seating. This is one bath or shower you won't want to rush! There is a supply of locally made hand soap and body wash/shampoo, and of course hotel quality towels.
OUTSIDE
The large yard overlooks beautiful Columbia Lake, and has a horseshoe pit, a fire pit in the rear deck, a second open fire pit away from the house, covered storage beside the house, and terrific 360 degree views. Please bring your own wood to burn.
KEEPING THE PROPERTY COOL
There's a window air con unit upstairs and fans in some of the bedrooms. To keep downstairs cool during the day we highly recommend keeping all the blinds down at all times. Please also ensure all the thermostats are low.
