It's listed for $540,000, and the listing says that it's water access, so you need to boat up to the cabin. It's about a 15-minute boat ride to this spot, but the lake doesn't freeze over in the winter so you get year-round access.

The real intrigue of this place though is the sprawling nature surrounding it. Stunning clear water you dive into, the forest all around, and a view like no other.

The cabin is set in Lillooet, which is about three and a half hours from Vancouver and known for its beauty. Snowmobiling, backcountry skiing and winter hiking take up the chilly season here, while the hot dry summers are great for gardening, swimming, and fishing.
