Summary:
Welcome to West Devil Lake, a place to hang your hat and enjoy mother nature on a quiet bay nestled in the woods 20 minutes from Westport. The home is a part of a family oriented community that values preservation of the lake and wildlife around. To maintain outdoor serenity, instead of air conditioning the house is equipped with large windows and some shade.
The Space:
The 4 bedroom house sits on top of a hill and sleeps 9 comfortably with 3 bedrooms on the upper floor which share a (very) large 4 piece bathroom and one on the lower level next to the 2nd full bathroom and large games/TV room. The kitchen, dining and living area are all on the main floor and look out to the lake facing south. There is no shortage of seating options throughout the house including the sunroom and porch. For outside dining, step to the walkout deck where you will find the BBQ and more seating. Off the porch, you will also find a clothes line, outdoor shower, and likely a few furry visitors so remember to keep your food locked away!
The interior design is curated with local + Canadian artwork and furnishings with a modern eclectic style coupled with a warm vintage touch. Some of the art work is available to purchase simply by contacting the artist’s card provided next to each piece that is for sale. Built by predecessors with some of the owner's finishing touches, the house was made to last with sustainability in mind. From its ICF infrastructure and heating sources, to the natural soaps and cleaning products made available to guests, this space makes gentle + green living easy.

The dock is located down the hill from the house about 100m or so. The curved path down to the dock can be a little tricky to walk. Elderly or physically disabled guests may find it difficult to travel on. Please consider this when booking. Water toys include 2 kayak's and a SUP board with life jackets.
