Welcome to your off-grid mountain retreat on Beaton Creek! Known locally as “Gunterman Falls”, the 21’ Waterfall view from the deck is stunning. The cabin was constructed in 2006 by Jim Pownell, using BC larch logs. The attention to detail and local craftsmanship throughout the home is impressive. Douglas fir flooring locally sourced from Boards by George in Meadow Creek, the custom kitchen, designed and made in Summit Lake, has propane fridge and stove and a large island for entertaining. The open living space offers a large dining area and cozy living room with a propane fireplace. The master bedroom and 3 pc ensuite are also on the main floor, featuring an opening window to the waterfall for natural “white noise” and cool summer nights! The wrap around decks offer both open and covered spaces, with access from 3 sides of the cabin from the main floor. The 1/2 loft is accessed by custom made stairs and railing crafted in local fir, with inlaid dark cherry wood. Featuring 3 open sleeping areas (Queen, Single to King pull-out day bed and double) and a 3 pc bathroom featuring a clawfoot tub with a mountain view! The full, walk out, partially finished, basement is designed with in-floor heating (not utilized to date), wood burning fireplace, with 2 bedrooms and 3 pc roughed-in bathroom. Outside, the 1.8 acre landscaped lot also features a gazebo (the Man Cave) overlooking the awe inspiring waterfall with an outside viewing deck and in-door sauna. And if that wasn't enough there is also a beautiful potting (She) Shed, 12 x 12 with opening windows and lots of room for storage and creating! Both have served as overnight guest sleeping spaces! Lot's of storage with a 40' sea can and adjacent wood shed. The Trout Lake Internet society (high speed service) has options for seasonal or full time service - currently, there is no cellular service but Internet calling works great! Beaton is a historic, remote community where the Upper Arrow Lake meets the Incomappleux River, known as the Beaton Arm. The upper reaches of the Incomappleux valley are home to some of the only inland temperate rainforest in the world. Summer cabins are abundant, but a few full time residents enjoy a self sufficient lifestyle. Close by public Boat launch available and endless back country adventure and wildlife to enjoy!
