Great place to reunite with family!
Our family had a great time during our stay at this property. The deck was a nice spot for a quiet morning coffee and the beautiful table in the dining room was perfect for family dinners. It was close to the marina where we parked the boat we rented and it was a quick walk to the beach. Highly recommended for family get togethers!

Third stay at this location
Since we have returned 3 times obviously we have enjoyed staying at the property.We were a little concerned this time as ownership had changed after we had booked however the new owners were pleasant and responded quickly to questions. It was very smoky for the first few days but that didn’t hamper our boating sitting on the beach etc Our family had a good time again

Exceptional Vacation
We spent the September long weekend at SonCountry and we absolutely loved it. The place is beautiful and nestled away in a beautiful part of BC. There's more beds than we needed, very clean and perfect for a large gathering. Tons of area to explore in walking distance from the cabin, we especially enjoyed the salmon run in full bloom just down the road. Very cool! Thanks for the accommodation!

Fantastic Family Fun
The "cabin" that 15 of us stayed in at Scotch Creek was the best accommodation we have encountered in our 7 years of family gatherings. It was beautifully laid out to accommodate different age groups and activities (board games, jigsaw puzzle, video games, reading, hide and seek!). The kitchen and linen supplies were above and beyond expectations. Proximity to the lake, availability of rentals, delightful decks and the huge hot tub also added to the desirability of the property. The only problem - if too many people know how spectacular this property is, there won't be room for us to return.

beyond our expectations
This home was a pleasure to stay in. We had 16 people with us and even on rainy days inside we had plenty of space.The kitchen was well put together with soaps and anything you could need, all there. My biggest concern was cleanliness and I was very happy, everything is well looked after. Mitch was available to answer any questions we had and recommend some nice restaurants. A near by qrocery store had anything needed and their prices were reasonable. This was our first time doing a vacation by owner and we would definently do it again. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us, it was an excellent time. from Tracy Julie And all of Mike's family we thank you. Just Awesome!!!

Scotch Creek Family Vacation/Reunion
The location close to the beach is great, and the size of the house is good for accommodating a large group. Lots of parking. Some of the amenities are top notch ie the dishwasher and the barbeques. Lots of fridges, 2 in the house and 2 small ones on the side patio. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes but lacking some larger cookware. Beds were comfortable and nice bedding. The arcade game was a big hit with our grandkids. No air conditioning so it was warm, especially in the evening and night. Lots of fans so that helped. The house, patios and deck are great besides needing a bit of maintenance ie stain, but we were a bit dissapponted in the yard and firepit area- it wasn't as nice as in the pictures. The back deck is shaded by trees so that was awesome, and the patio lights are a nice touch. We almost didn't get to use the hot tub/swim spa as there was an issue with the filtering when we got there. The host called the spa company to come the next day and then it was going to be Tuesday, then ended up they didn't come until after we left on Friday. Luckily we own one and were able to get the water inhabitable for the 2nd half of our stay. This amenity was important to us, as we think it would be to a lot of guests. Overall our family had a great time. Thank you to our host Jen for being flexible to our needs and helping to make this a memorable and enjoyable holiday!

We had a really enjoyable relaxing stay while in the area for a family wedding. Lots of room for everyone to sleep comfortably, hot tub was a treat and we had enjoyed the big dining room table for card games during the rain.

50th anniversary
We had an absolutely amazing stay. The house was just as advertised and had plenty of room for us to celebrate my parents 50th wedding anniversary. In total there was 20 of us ranging from 2-72 years of age. The house was beautoful! The hosts were amazing, quick to answer any questions and to make suggestions ie. photographers in the area. During our stay we even had family photos in their backyard to celebrate my parents 50th and the engagement of my oldest son!! The house was equipped with everything we should have needed and was clean.

Karen, Jennifer and their spouses were great hosts. There was some last minute changes to the amenities due to damage from previous guests, but they were wonderful at ensuring we would have an amazing time and we did! If you’re looking for a place that will accommodate a large group with enough space to not feel cramped, this is a great spot. There’s lots of outdoor/indoor areas and it’s very close to the lake!

Son Country Chalet is a great getaway!
Our stay for the Thanksgiving weekend was enjoyable for everyone in our group. The home is very big, with fenced in backyard and lots of parking. Can tell the home has been well loved, but no major concerns. We had plenty of kids running around and multiple families and found that we could hear anything between rooms. Not a problem unless you are looking for a quiet time away. All bedding and supplies at the home were more than sufficient for our large group. The loft is great for kids aged 10-18 as a very steep ladder into this loft where there are 6 of the chalets beds are located. Younger children will find this ladder intimidating and parents will stress over their children's constant need to attempt to climb. We just laid ground rules and it was fine. Joel, the property owner and Don the caretaker were fantastic to deal with and timely with info and assistance when requested. Don lives next door and was a big help when checking in. Only point we could offer for future bookings, enquire about the hot tub. We were told 2 weeks before our stay that the hot tub was not available due to damage caused by previous visitors. It would be a shame to book this place for a snowmobiling trip etc.. and still not have use of the hot tub. Other than this though, the entire stay was great and experience at Son Country Chalet, in all aspects, was fun and easy. Thank you to Joel and Don for a great weekend! Cheers!
