Welcome to Celista Beach House — a bright, airy 4BR/2BA lakefront retreat on Shuswap Lake, built for summer lake weeks with family and friends. Enjoy mountain + lake views, two spacious decks, a private beach area, and a private dock with 2 mooring buoys (Apr–Oct) for easy boating days and calm morning paddles.

Top highlights:
✔ Lakefront with private dock + 2 mooring buoys (Apr–Oct)
✔ Private beach area with gradual entry (beach size varies seasonally)
✔ 2 paddleboards, 2 adult kayaks + 2 kids kayaks
✔ Sleeps 10: 3 bedrooms + Murphy bed lounge
✔ Two large decks + yard w/ lakeview seating
✔ Fully stocked kitchen + dining for 10
✔ Fast Wi-Fi, Cable TVs, smart lock check-in
✔ Outdoor shower, propane BBQ, fire pit (when permitted)

As soon as you step inside, you’re welcomed by an open, light-filled living space with elevated ceilings and stunning lake views. The fully equipped kitchen flows into the dining and living room, making it easy to gather for meals, watch a movie, or step outside and enjoy the view. Two large decks, a private beach area, and an open yard offer space to unwind — whether you’re grilling, reading, sipping wine, or watching kids paddle in the lake.

Each bedroom is thoughtfully prepared with blackout curtains and bamboo sheets for restful nights, while two full bathrooms and an outdoor shower make it simple to rinse off after a day on the lake.

Comfort is covered year-round with baseboard heat in newer areas and two ductless split units for heating and cooling (main living area + upstairs primary).

For a truly carefree stay, we’ve included all the extras: paddleboards, kayaks, beach toys, a BBQ with propane, high-speed Wi-Fi, Cable TVs, a full laundry area with supplies, and kitchen and bathroom basics — even backup freezer space for longer stays.

The home is private and peaceful yet conveniently near Celista Estate Winery, the family-friendly Evelyn Falls trail, off-road adventures at Crowfoot Mountain, marinas, and local grocery shopping — a perfect mix of exploration and relaxation.

Other things to note
Liability Waiver: For insurance and safety, all guests must sign a liability waiver before arrival.
Professional Cleaning: The home is professionally cleaned and fully reset between each reservation.
Air Conditioning: Two ductless A/C units (main living area + upstairs primary) keep the main areas comfortable; bedrooms without direct A/C can run warmer on hot summer nights. Fans are provided in every room, and running the A/C earlier in the day helps keep things cool before bedtime.
Life Jackets: 12 life jackets are provided, ranging from infant to XL.
Exterior Security Cameras: Exterior security cameras are installed outside only and do not monitor any interior spaces.
Weather: Weather and temperature can vary — please check forecasts prior to arrival.
Water Levels: Lake levels vary seasonally, typically peaking in June. This can reduce usable beach area and may require wading to reach the dock during high water.

Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to hosting you at Celista Beach House.
