Wonderful stay in Blind Bay
Our nursing friend group had an absolutely amazing time at Jody and Stephen’s place. The place was beautifully layed out with enough room to relax, sit around the table and sleep comfortably. The place was extremely clean with well through out details and views were stunning with gorgeous sunsets. We loved the very clean hot tub that was very relaxing and clean The kitchen was well stocked with lots of prep room and the beds were very comfortable Jody and Stephen gave us a detailed and supportive tour on arrival and were very approachable and responsive We enjoyed a lovely afternoon out kayaking and didn’t have much trouble making our way to the water We would definitely stay at this property again and would highly recommend Thanks Jody and Stephen

This house was so roomy and well designed for a large group, everyone could fit at the table, cooking facilities and kitchen top notch. Lovely swimming in the lake and clean, large hot tub to lounge around in. Everything was neat and tidy and super clean, with so much space available to gather together, both inside and out. Thank you.

Retreat
Pros: The Woodward house is nice and clean and steps away from the lake. The setup was great, outdoor patio was nice and cozy. Bonus points for all the water toys they supplied for their guests which made the lake much more enjoyable. Stephen and Jody was very accommodating when we had extra people in the group. Cons: - That said, we felt that our privacy was not respected. The owners dropped by almost every day and told us that all the neighbours and local businesses keep an eye out. So for those thinking about booking here - expect to be monitored. - In addition to a cleaning fee, they expect guests to clean and dry the towels, vacuum, wash and put away all dishes and more. This felt quite excessive - it should have been cleared mentioned in the listing description that they use an at home septic system. Due to the size of our group (18) they asked the men to pee outside. - Smaller issue but good to know that they don’t provide shampoo, conditioner or body wash.

Sweet Summer Escape
We rented this home for 5 days in August for a family vacation. There was 12 of us in total, ranging from age 10 to 65. The home was spacious and clean, meeting all of our expectations. Often we rent homes that are missing items like extra coffee mugs, pans, etc. This home was not missing anything. In fact, it had every item we needed and more. The home owners went above and beyond. Communication was incredible. They treated us like family and we are extremely grateful for their hospitality. We will be back next year!

Lots of room for large Family/group!
Beautiful accommodations and great for a large group. Beach access was challenging for us due to young children and a legally blind adult as the steep, rocky path was slippery and challenging just walking let alone carrying any water toys across the road and back up after stay.

What an amazing vacation property
The house is set up perfectly for large groups. Everything you need or think you need is included with your rental. We could not have been happier with our time. Steve and Jody have thought of everything, from the littlest thing in the kitchen to giving you water toys to enjoy the lake. The hot tub was a huge hit after an evening on the water. All of the rooms a spacious and comfortable with great beading and pillows. I would highly recommend this rental to anyone that is looking for some great family fun and memories.

Great week!
Loved our stay! Jody and Stephen are great hosts - truly only a text away for questions or issues. The outdoor space and location are the stars of the home! We spent most of our time outside, on the dock and on the lake - no shortage of options for enjoying the outdoors! Grandkids especially enjoyed the paddle boards, water trampoline and hot tub! Felt safe and secure with our boat on the provided buoy and loved the dock for ease of loading and unloading people on the boat. We chose this home for the lakefront and outdoor space and were very pleased with our choice! Great place to spend a week with loved ones!

The space itself is gorgeous, with close access to the lake, and lots of outdoor seating. Can't say enough positive things about my experience here.

What a great find for our large family group!
Our family of 16 had a wonderful stay at this fantastic property! The home was immaculately clean, had everything one would need, and had plenty of space for all of us. We also loved all the wonderful nooks and spaces to sit outside both to enjoy or hide from the sun and to enjoy views of the lake! The back patio is heaven with plenty of space for everyone. The Hot Tub was enjoyed by all! We were concerned about the road between the home and the beach especially because we had several very young children with us. We quickly discovered this was not an issue as the back area of the house is easy to keep the young from getting out on their own. The road is not overly busy to be near and we found drivers along the road very respectful! The beach is a bit heavy with rocks but to be fair the water level of the lake was unusually shallow for this time of year so there was more beach to navigate. Additionally, a number of storms will have altered the beach rock substantially. It was not a big issue since the dock was there to use. Beach toys galore and much appreciated! The hosts of this property are very personable, approachable and attentive! We are so very happy to have vacationed at this property!!!

The property was very clean and had great outdoor spaces for our large family group! There has been a lot of care taken with this property. It was a very hot week, the various sitting areas were great, we could always find a shady spot to hang out, between the air conditioning and fans provided we were able to stay cool. The lawn was a good spot for badminton, bocce ball etc. The owners were easy to get a hold of, responsive, and very kind. The kitchen was well stocked, and instructions clear. There are many water toys available, our older children spent a lot of time on the water trampoline

Huge House Large Decks
Our family of 10 (adults and toddlers) enjoyed our week for fun in the sun House: - House fit our needs with plenty of space, beds (kings, queens, bunks) and bedrooms. Good beds with lots of linen supplied - House was clean - Large enough table and chairs for all of us to fit around when we chose to eat inside - Basic dry condiments supplied - Well stocked with appliances, dishes, cutlery, pots, pans and cooking utensils. (A list of appliances might be nice in the contract as we brought a crock pot and found we didn’t need to as there was one there) - 3 fridges – one on each deck along with the kitchen fridge - Supplied Highchair and Pack N Play - Lots of parking on side and in front - Wi-Fi was strong but better is some parts of the house - Large amount of towels supplied – bring your beach towels for the beach and outside - 3 full bathrooms including a bathtub in one to bath the kids - Portable air conditioners and many fans kept the house cool Decks: - We used the front lower deck during the day. Lots of patio furniture to relax on and still had lots of area for the kids to play including some green area. - When we wanted shade, we used the large back deck. The back deck had ample patio furniture which was perfect for dinners outside and close to kitchen and BBQ. Pretty cool back yard. - The hot tub just off the back deck was enjoyed each evening for a dip before bed. Water Toys: - Great assortment of water toys to use along with a selection of lifejackets. - We used the paddle boards - Water trampoline was a nice bonus Dock/Beach: - We rented a boat that we were able to keep at the dock area - Enjoyed the dock area for sitting in the sun and playing in the water - Unfortunately, we did not have a beach as the lake water level was still high this year - Highly recommend water shoes as the beach/lake is a rocky base Service Road: - Had to cross the service road to get to the water, beach and dock. Was a little busy at times. Host: - Great Host - Quick to respond to all of our questions prior to arriving and was there to meet us and show us around when we arrived - There is a suite on the lower level which the owners do stay in but were not there during our stay Amenities: - Grocery Store/Liquor Store/Gas Station nearby. Very impressed with the grocery/liquor store. Had everything we ever needed including Ice Cream! - Water Slide and Big Box stores in Salmon Arm about 30 minutes away Our family would stay again

Perfect Multi-Generational Vacation
Can we only give it 5 stars? Our three generations of 6 adults and 3 children have just finished a glorious week at Jody and Stephen's immaculate property. Let us start by saying we rebooked for next year. From the time we made the reservation last fall, Jody has responded quickly and warmly to our questions. On our arrival, the genuine welcome and tour made us feel right at home. The house is spacious and the kitchen so well equipped, there is no need to bring anything but your food, beverages, beach towels and clothes. A large washer and dryer, with laundry detergent provided, was very handy with the little ones. Both inside and outside there are numerous sitting areas, so it is easy to find space to gather, as well as have areas for quiet time. The hot tub was pristine and our gang used it often. With the backyard set against a stunning rock wall, the outdoor lighting at night makes the space magical. The front lawn is beautifully landscaped with curving retaining walls and steps. The grassed area is perfect for outdoor games while others can watch from the shade of the gazebo looking onto the lake. Jody and Stephen provide an extensive array of water toys including paddle boards, kayaks, a canoe, a paddle boat, lifejackets in a range of sizes. They also have beach chairs and sand toys. At the lake there is a dock with two Adirondack chairs (.wait till you see the sunsets). The water trampoline was a big hit with our family. The beach is pebbly/rocky and the water unusually high this year. However this didn't affect our enjoyment. everyone was in the lake playing and swimming each day. Bring your water shoes or we wore Teva sandals. As is clearly stated in the listing, there is a road in front of the house. This was not an issue for us, just look both ways before you cross. In summary, we highly recommend a stay. Our best advice is to book early as the summer fills up quickly. Sue and Dave
