It's not a secret that Vancouver is pricey and, for some, the city life is worth the cost. Sometimes though it's nice to daydream though, about a slower-paced life away from it all — and cheaper home prices.
While a little condo in Vancouver goes for about $785,000, according to WOWA, this log home set back in the mountains is only $371,000. Wide open space is all around, making this feel like a little retreat overlooking Nimpo Lake.
It's far away from the big city, in the Cariboo Chilcotin, and ideal for outdoorsy people looking for an escape into nature. The area is ripe for exploration with fishing in the summer and skiing in the winter.

The home is on 2.67 acres of land and has big windows, vaulted ceilings, and lots of natural light pouring in.
It's small but has everything you need, with a loft bedroom over the living room — which has a wood fireplace you can cozy up next to on a cold day.

Out of the dining room area, you'll get stunning views of the surrounding landscape, and in the warmer months, you can take them in from the big deck.

The lake is also right there, which is perfect for the summer. Nothing beats a cozy log cabin in the chilly winter months though.
