Thinking of the ideal memory-making vacation, the kind youB次元官网网址檒l be reliving with family or friends for years to come, what comes to mind?
Gorgeous scenery, blue skies and sun-kissed waters, definitely, along with that dynamic duo of recreation and relaxation. How about soaking in the sights and experiences without having to drive or unpack between stops? And the only people you need to enjoy them with are those you invite on boardB次元官网网址�
ItB次元官网网址檚 time to experience the perfect houseboat vacation at one of the West CoastB次元官网网址檚 favourite destinations: Shuswap Lake.
B次元官网网址淭he lake and all there is to do here is definitely a major draw, and a fully equipped houseboat is the perfect way to enjoy it,B次元官网网址� says Braydon Roebuck, Operations Manager from the Sicamous-based Twin Anchors Houseboats.
When to visit
While the Shuswap gets a lot of love during the height of summer, late spring and late summer both offer terrific opportunities for a sun-soaked getaway. Even better, whether you choose a three-, four- or seven-night adventure, you get to enjoy all the highlights of summer, without the crowds, Roebuck notes.
With temperatures in the 20s, beach time and water sports are favourite activities. Bring along your own gear or visit to rent paddleboards, kayaks, Sea-doos, wakeboard boats, pontoons and more, then refuel from your adventures at the must-visit Shark Shack floating restaurant, delighting locals and visitors alike since 2008.
Pull up to shore to sip and sample at some of the ShuswapB次元官网网址檚 top , enjoy a round of golf or hike to enjoy and rushing waterfalls. Of course, youB次元官网网址檒l also find countless other things to do in the area or around .
