About the Cabin

Our experience at the Kermode cabin in Sandpiper Resort was truly exceptional. The cabin was extremely comfortable for a family of four – featuring three bedrooms with queen-size beds and two full bathrooms. The spacious living area, with a wood-burning fireplace, created a cozy atmosphere. It was perfect for unwinding from the daily grind and routine. They have a lovely dining space and full kitchen, with a Nespresso Vertuo coffee machine, which came in handy when we wanted a nice warm drink. The large windows allowed us to wake up to stunning views of the river and mountains each morning. The large patio had a barbecue, and provided an excellent space to walk outside to enjoy the scenic view. From the patio, we were able to see many eagle sightings, making for an incredible and unforgettable experience. The cabin’s rustic charm with modern amenities, was the perfect family retreat.

Amenities

Sandpiper Resort offers many amenities that enhanced the overall experience of our stay. We loved their on-site restaurant, River’s Edge Clubhouse. We had breakfast and dinner at the restaurant and our family enjoyed it each time. The resort has been recognized as one of the most picturesque 18-hole golf courses in British Columbia. Even though we didn’t go golfing, when we walked by the golf course, it was beautiful and there were many people golfing. The outdoor pool, unfortunately closed during our visit, would likely be a great spot for families when it’s open. We did enjoy the Eagle Viewing Trail that winds through the forest, leading to a waterfront viewing gazebo where we saw so many eagles flying and perched on trees! It’s around a 20 minutes walk and saw many families with younger kids going on this trail.

Other amenities include:

• Free Parking
• Wi-Fi Access
• Pet Friendly Units
