HOW IT CAME TO BE
We purchased the property after staying there on vacation two consecutive summers with our extended family of 14. We loved staying there but couldn’t stop thinking about the ways the property could be improved….. So when the chance came up to buy it, we jumped at the opportunity, and have been working hard to make our vision for the property a reality ever since.
LOCATION
The property is just under 10 acres overlooking Lake Windermere, the town of Invermere, and the Columbia Basin Wetlands. It is surrounded by both the Rocky and Purcell mountain ranges. Directly across the street you will find many hundreds more acres of Crown Land that is virtually private and features walking paths, off-road/ biking trails, hiking paths and more adventures.
It is located 7 minutes from downtown Invermere and is 15 minutes from Panorama Mountain Resort. The less-known, but beautiful and tranquil Lake Lillian is only 3.3km away.
World-class golf courses such as Eagle Ranch, Copperpoint, and Greywolf are all within a short drive. Just down the 93 you will find the hot springs of Radium (13KM) and Fairmont (25Km). The Klooisfer Trail network of mountain bike and off-road trails can be entered directly across the street from the entrance to the property.

The living room also features a huge u-shaped couch, plus another sofa and several comfy chairs so your entire group can spread out in one room. There is an 85” tv with cable for your viewing pleasure, the cabinets are stocked with board games and there is even a coffee table with LCD top where you can play yet more games.

PROPERTY - Pool, Patio & Land
The real magic of this property comes with the vast land and outdoor space for you to enjoy. The home features multiple outdoor patios including the main pool deck which includes a 40’ pool, 8-person hot-tub, day-bed and sun-chairs. There’s even a 20’ outdoor home theater screen that can be set up for you to enjoy an outdoor movie or the big game once the sun goes down.
Moving out from there, you will find 10 acres of our private land to explore. From our 9-hole mini-golf, to the bocce/horseshoe pits, to the trampoline and playground, to the par-3 golf hole/putting green and abundant walking paths, there is just so much to see and enjoy.
And if you want to go further, there are another 30 acres of crown land right out the front door that is virtually private and then hundreds of acres more across the street at the entrance to the property that include some of the area’s best hiking, mountain-biking and off-roading trails.
ARCADE - The arcade is located in the heated garage approximately 60ft from the front door. It’s a truly unique space that provides fun for the whole family. The highlight is a full golf-simulator where you can play your favorite courses such as Banff Springs, Greywolf, and Pebble Beach. The projector can also be used as a home theater and is connected to an Amazon Firestick so you can watch all your favorite streaming systems on a 170” screen. There is also a 2021 Golden Tee on a 55” screen with a cable box so you can watch live sports or anything else you want. LED lights galore support the fun atmosphere. There are 5 more arcade cabinets including one MAME Retro arcade machine that has over 5000 classic games. You will also find a ping-pong table, shuffleboard, air-hockey table, karaoke machine and more. It’s truly an unforgettable space.
GYM - The 250sf garage gym is well-appointed and offers everything you need to get your fitness in. It has a treadmill, elliptical, bench, and free weights all in a comfortable, heated space.
BLAKE - THE WORLD’S GREATEST ON-SITE CARETAKER - We are very lucky to have our on-site caretaker Blake Andersen. Blake has lived on the property since 2015. He has his own private quarters in the basement with a separate entrance so you will hardly notice him. He is available with a little lead-time to help with many of the amenities and general questions about the property. Blake is an avid snowboarder, hiker and mountain-biker and has a tremendous amount of knowledge about the area. He is a great resource if you are looking for trails or cool places to visit during your stay. He is essential to the on-going maintenance at the ranch as it requires a great deal more upkeep than a standard residential property would.
