Albas Cottage | Blueberry Springs on Shuswap Lake.

2 Bedroom Cottage in Albas, St Ives

Idyllic off-grid retreat in a completely private setting by Shuswap Lake. This is the perfect place to quarantine or to socially distance.
Blueberry Springs is a 22 acre property nestled in Albas Provincial Park - over 1,200 acres of Stunning Rain Forest, Majestic Waterfalls, and Beautiful Beaches, set in the heart of British Columbia's Shuswap Lake District and surrounded by the Monashee Mountains. The beautiful spacious cabin offers incredible 180 degree views of the lake and mountains. This is a natural adventure playground for children but also for all ages.
When not swimming at the beach, adults can enjoy boating, fishing, hiking or for something less energetic simply relax on the cabin deck or read a book in a hammock by the stream. Parents appreciate the lack of TV giving children the opportunity to play in the stream and discover nature.
At night, roast marshmallows by a roaring fire. For night sky gazers, the lack of light pollution, gives you an excellent view of the stars and if you are lucky the Northern Lights. If you love peace and quiet, then a holiday at Blueberry Springs is the place for you; sit by the deck fireplace and listen to the hush of the stream.
West Beach is a short 5 minute walk, featuring picturesque covered picnic tables next to the sunny south facing shores of the beach.
The large comfortable living room with vaulted ceiling and enchanting decor is set next to the kitchen. The master bedroom features a cast iron clawfoot bath, alongside a large sofa and has a very comfortable king size bed. The 400 square foot loft has a queen size bed with space for two twin beds. The bathroom has a pedestal sink, ceramic tiled shower & toilet.
Blueberry Springs Cabin sleeps six.

Summary: Cabin fit all 6 of us really well. Kitchen equipped great! Incredible view from a spacious deck. Little bit of a walk to the beach but doable. Hosts very attentive. Great holiday, would like to do it again.

Summary: We had an amazing week at Blueberry Springs! The view is absolutely spectacular and you will never tire of looking at the beautiful snow-capped mountains, the lake and the trees from the comfy living room or from the expansive deck. We also loved the sound of the stream below. The space is very private and you really do feel like you are away from it all which is exactly what we were hoping for. The cabin is very comfortable and has everything you need for a relaxing stay. The main bedroom is so lovely and we had really good sleeps in the king size bed. The loft area has very good beds too, so we all enjoyed some high-quality slumber! There is excellent cell service here and we were busy at the beach so we didn’t miss wifi at all. We had a blast going down to the beach every day, eating meals at the picnic table on the balcony, lounging in the hammock and roasting marshmallows at night. The beach was very small at this time of the year as the lake level was pretty high, but there was still plenty of room for setting up our towels and chairs and getting some long-awaited sunshine! We were prepared for many bugs, but we only ran into a few mosquitoes so some simple Off spray was all we needed. We did decide to drive the few minutes to the beach as we had several floaties, beach chairs, and coolers and the driveway is steep. We also liked going for walks and our dog had so much fun discovering the forest. She even learned how to swim on this trip! Steve and Lesley are very welcoming, friendly and responsive hosts who were reachable the whole time via text for anything we needed. Thank you! I love the beautiful view so much that I have it as a screensaver on my phone so I can continue admiring it. We would love to come again next year!

Summary: This was an amazing property off of the grid with a panoramic view of the surrounding area and lake. It was conveniently located next to the beach, and next to some great hiking trails.

Summary: Our family of six plus a dog stayed here for a week for our summer vacation. The drive out is interesting and a bit rough near the end, but doable. The property was perfect. Beautiful place with interesting eclectic decor that we all enjoyed. The beach is close and we enjoyed the walk through a beautiful forest (even the hill up to the property isn’t that bad). We spent 4-6 hours a day at the beach, swimming and playing. We brought our two kayaks and SUP and enjoyed the sparsely populated lake the whole time. The hosts were amazing. Very friendly and helpful. Overall, this was an amazing vacation and we wouldn’t hesitate to return.

Summary: Blueberry Springs is a gorgeous getaway with breathtaking views and the lake was so refreshing. Our hosts were kind, generous and responsive and we look forward to returning!

Summary: Cabin, lake, host, road, surrounded areas, all is like a dream ! If you are looking something simple to relax and enjoy without complications. Definitely 10 out of 10

Summary: When you have driven 30 kilometres on an unmade road and then start down a stony 3 kilometre track to the cabin, you may begin to think your choice of "remote" was TOO remote. As soon as your genial host Steve has warmly welcomed you to the cabin and you step onto the deck and see the view, you will know you made the right choice. This is a little corner of heaven that looks spectacularly south down the Seymour Arm of Shuswap Lake and across at the snowy tips of the Monashees. The view will take your breath away and looking at it will be your chief occupation during your stay! The cabin is light, airy and comfortable and its huge picture windows bring the exquisite landscape indoors to be enjoyed from every vantage point. Although the cabin is not large, the bedrooms are spacious and the beds extremely comfortable. The beach is just a 5 minute walk away, although if you have children and the accompanying beach paraphernalia, you may prefer to take the car down as the driveway up to the cabin is steep. Nestling in Albas Provincial Park, Blueberry Springs is the ultimate getaway for those seeking the peace and solace of nature. Whatever the weather, the beauty of the lake and the fresh scent of the rainforest will amply repay your effort in getting there.

Summary: To be honest, I did not realize that there was no wireless service at this beautifully appointed haven on a hill overlooking Shuswap Lake and several mountain ranges.....I am so used to wireless everywhere I go, I obviously must have read it into existence. After my shock of accepting total disconnect from my business, I was informed that the cell service was excellent and I could access my emails on my phone. Saved the day and the holiday! My friend and I then relaxed into this very special offering in the wilds of middle BC. Lesley and Steve are just the nicest people who couldn't have done more to make us feel welcome. The 'cabin' is actually a big house, Cape Cod style with lots of nautical touches...as well as angels. A fun eclectic mix of decor.....that was highlighted by an extraordinary antler chandelier! Comfy beds, quality furnishings and an expansive deck overlooking the land below, with a sweet fireplace for nights under the stars and a private beach just a leisurely 10 minute walk away (rock hounds get excited) where I went swimming in the pristine waters of this truly lovely and remote location....a fabulous find. My friend kept thanking me for finding it! I am intending to go back next summer...so leave some dates for me!!!! Thanks for an intense dive into nature at it's BC best! Challamar

Summary: Our stay at the Blueberry Springs was just perfect! The Place is just as beautiful as shown in the pictures, maybe even more so! Such a wonderful, cozy, and calm place to stay at, especially as a family! One of the best parts of staying here was the fact we could bring our pets. They had the best time ever. We are just going to have to make a plan to come back. Steve and Leslie are such warm, kind, and caring hosts who attended to our every need and helped us have a lovely stay. Can't thank you enough for helping our daughter fix her tire. The house is fully stocked and has such a lovely feeling of home. I would highly recommend this beautiful home for your next stay. Thanks, Steve and Leslie for making this such a memorable trip. Hope to see you again soon.

Summary: This property is the perfect spot to get away from it all! The views from the cabin are fantastic and as you sit on the deck you can hear the stream. It’s a short walk down to a beautiful and very private beach. Steve and Leslie have a real hidden gem, thank you for sharing with us!
