A cozy home on Canyon Ferry west shore that has lake front access and views awaiting you and your family and friends. You will wake up to beautiful sunrises over the mountains as well as seeing beautiful sunsets. This cozy three-bedroom, two-bathroom lake house will accompany up to six guests with all the clean linens and towels provided. Enjoying your morning coffee in a peaceful setting on the large deck listening to the loons and geese while watching a breath-taking sunrise. You can relax while having breakfast, lunch and dinner right there by the water or cooking by the water while using the BBQ and outdoor furniture. There are endless activities that await you from fishing, boating, water skiing, swimming, hiking, sapphire mining, rock climbing or just relax and read a book or just watch activities on the water. There are all sorts of wildlife near and far to watch and enjoy as well. If you are the exploring type, there are gulches across the lake to take a ride up where gold was discovered. Helena is twenty miles away and offers several restaurants and all your shopping needs. There are daily tours of Helena and the historic alley also the state capital, the cathedral and governor's historic mansion. Helena is full of history, if you like that sort of thing. We would recommend for young children to be supervised due to the property is a bit rocky. There are nice sandy beaches down the road for playing in the sand. Parking is limited, no RVs or trailers. For those with boats, Yacht Basin Marina is a mile down the road, and Kim's marina is across the lake, you will want to call them to reserve a dock for your watercraft. There is high speed internet if people need to do little checking in for work or what have you. All you have to do is pack a bag and bring the food and drinks of your choice. The rest is there from coffee to linens and towels. As a kid and even as an adult I loved being there and never wants to leave once I am there. Hope you choose our lake house for your stay. I promise you will love it. Come make memories at the Westshore getaway! ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cabin: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room - Wood stove ### Entertainment - DVD player - Games - Stereo - TV with cable/satellite channels - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundromat nearby ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - One pet total ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - 2 steps to reach entrance - Area rugs in public areas - Handrails in stairways - Smooth flooring in public areas - Thin carpet in public areas - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Phone ### Location highlights - Near a hospital - Near the marina - On a lake - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Sailing nearby - Swimming nearby - Water skiing nearby - Water tubing nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ## Similar properties ![Smart TV](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/103000000/102090000/102083100/102083053/a90c9d08.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Mountain Retreat close to town.
