Loved it, would love to come back!
The kitchen was so well stocked, and we were able to cook so many tasty meals and even a cake! Loved having lots of space to spread out and not be in each other's spaces all the time, but also having a lot of group gathering spaces for dinner and playing pool. Thank you so much for having us!

Heffley Lake Home near Sun Peaks
This is the second time we've taken our Alpine Team to Sun Peaks and stayed here. Peter's place was perfect for our group meals as the kitchen is full stocked. The space is more than enough for the 10 of us to enjoy games, books and the pool table. Hopefully we'll have another race at Sun Peaks so we can book Peter's place again in the future.

Family Get Together
Awesome stay! The number of bedrooms and bathrooms makes it perfect for a multi generational family get together. Large open areas in the main part of the house, deck and dock for hanging out and the house is very well equipped. Thanks for sharing your home with us!

Beautiful cabin!
Two families with adult children shared the cabin for five days between Xmas and New Year. Quick ride up to SP for skiing- then back to the cabin to relax and play games in front of the fire and shoot some pool. What could be better? Lovely clean cabin. Spacious. Beautiful views of the lake. Great communication from the owners.

Wonderful location, had everything we needed!
We had such a great time. The rooms were lovely, and the bathrooms and heated floors were very much appreciated! The kitchen had everything we might have needed — the only problem was remembering where everything was! We would love to come back again if you'll have us.

Beautiful house with great location
This is a beautiful house with a great layout for larger groups. Peter was a very attentive host who was very responsive and attentive to our needs. It's close to Sunpeaks but far enough away to experience the beauty of its surroundings. We are definitely booking again for next year's training and competitions.

Arriving back at the cabin of skiing, we enjoyed games, reading by the fireplace and prepping delicious dinners. Our alpine team cooked together in the fully stocked kitchen with anything we needed. Thanks for sharing your place.

Everything was Fantastic!
We had two families of 7 adults and 3 teenagers and there was lots of room and activities for everyone. The site was perfect for swimming, boating and wildlife viewing. It was an easy drive to many beautiful hikes but staying at the chalet was wonderful as well. The bedrooms and washrooms were comfortable and the deck with lake view very nice. Also lots of amenities for cooking, playing games and conversation. I highly recommend!!

Beautiful and well-equipped home!
We stayed over the Christmas holiday so we could have a white Christmas and ski at Sun Peaks. The house is absolutely beautiful and was perfect accommodations for our family. They decorated it for Christmas which was such a nice touch. The kitchen was the best equipped kitchen that I have ever had at a rental. There were lots of kids books and toys and a high chair which was so helpful with our 17-month-old daughter. The drive from the house to Sun Peaks was quick and easy. The view of the lake was beautiful and we were lucky enough that the ice was well frozen so we got to go out and play on the ice. Would highly recommend and would absolutely stay there again!

Peace and tranquility, look no further...
Peter's house is so beautiful. Every piece of furniture and decoration is tastefully chosen. The location and the view of the lake are simply amazing. The private deck and some water activities are definitely a plus. The healing power of nature offers you peace and tranquility, which city people like us need so desperately. It is a perfect choice for those who want to enjoy some good chats with their closest friends or family. Peter is a great host. He is very responsive and his instructions are very clear. We would definitely want to come back one day.

A family gathering to celebrate an 80th birthday
Our family recently stayed here to celebrate my dads 80th birthday. We wanted to find a place that could accommodate 6 adults and 3 kids comfortably, on a lake, where we could fish, swim and relax. Well we found that here and so much more. This is a beautiful and quiet property, gorgeous home, nestled into nature on the cliff side of Hefley Lake. It is extremely well appointed which made our stay and meal preps incredibly easy. We’ve never stayed in a vrbo this well equipped. They are so thoughtful in their details, even leaving sunglasses and sunscreen to use if you forgot. Their books and games collection came in very handy on the overcast days or when we just wanted to relax inside. As did the pool table downstairs. The kids never mentioned anything about not having TV, in 6 days. They had so much to do! Our family spent 6 nights here and easily could’ve stayed longer. From the very first email request to the last, Peter responded quickly and graciously. It is a little bit of a steep slope down to the dock from the house, and a bit of a hike back up, so it’s something to keep in mind for anyone elderly or unstable. Walking poles helped make it more comfortable for my parents and I know Peter already has wonderful plans in place for this also. We enjoyed sitting by the outdoor fire place and making s’mores, we enjoyed going for walks on the quiet road out front the property, and all the water fun down at the lake. We brought kayaks and paddle boards and either launched from the Hefley lake rec site which is a five minute drive down the road and then paddled back to the dock in front of the house or just carried our SUP’s right to the lake from the house. This was a wonderful, place to celebrate a family milestone and make memories. We will definitely go back!
