Blacktail Retreat - Log Cabin w/ Hot Tub - Sun Peaks/Heffley Lake

Welcome to Blacktail Retreat, a private log cabin situated on 10 treed acres, just 8 minutes from Sun Peaks Resort and 5 minutes from the shores of Heffley Lake.

Blacktail Retreat is a serene escape for couples and families alike, and after a long day on the mountain offers guests an extraordinary experience away from the hustle of the village.

Our studio cabin with loft accommodation has room to sleep 4 comfortably.

The cabin offers a private deck perfect for a morning coffee, as well as an outdoor seating area where one can relax with a good book or glass of wine in the evening.

Families can enjoy a covered BBQ area with a wood burning fire pit for your nightly s’mores and hot chocolate.

The hot tub, available for your private and exclusive use, is the perfect spot to take in the view or marvel over a night-time sky full of stars.

Your Blacktail Retreat stay has been designed with your every comfort in mind and encourages its guests to sit back and relax in their unique and quiet “home away from home.”

.…and who knows, maybe you’ll even get a glimpse of the beautiful creatures who inspired our name.

Summer Road Trip
This was a great first stop on our summer road trip to Vancouver Island! The cabin was quiet and secluded, and the hot tub was a great way to end a long day of driving. Everything was very well organized and the hosts had everything there that we needed. Great experience and we hope to return again!!!

Perfect and private cozy cabin
Everything met or exceeded our expectations staying at Blacktail! Our hosts were always quick to respond to any questions we had before arrival. During our stay we felt like we had our own little piece of private paradise while thoroughly enjoying the fire pit and hot tub. Kevin brought us extra firewood without us having to ask and immediately provided us with any information or extras we needed. Can’t say enough good things about staying here or the wonderful ambiance of this tiny cabin away from home. Loved every minute and will be back!

Beautiful home away from home
I had an absolutely amazing time, everything included. Close to the ski hill. Just bring food and clothes and your set. Wifi a little slow; to be expected in the location but there is cell service. This unique, beautiful, well kept log cabin is perfect for a family getaway. Quiet, warm wood stove, hot tub, gazebo covered fire pit, the owner was very welcoming and made sure we had all we needed. Definitely be visiting again.

35th Anniversary Holiday
Above and beyond our expectations. This was the perfect place to celebrate our 35th Anniversary in style. The cabin had all the essentials and was fully stocked with little details to make our stay perfect. The welcome gift was such a surprise and made our day extra special. The private hot tub was a highlight for us, such a treat. Everything is so well maintained and Erin and Kevin are amazing hosts!

Perfect little spot
This was the perfect little cabin! It was exactly as pictured, and was outfitted perfectly with everything you could need! The location was quiet and secluded, but close to the Sun Peaks resort and Kamloops is only a short drive away. There are several nice hiking trails nearby. If you are looking to get away from the busyness, this is a great little spot. We loved it and would go back! As per other comments we saw before booking, it is closer to the house than expected, but that didn't impact our time at all. After spending a week there we wouldn't change anything. It was a great spot to get away.

The cabin is absolutely amazing, everything you need for an escape from a busy city life.
We had an awesome stay at the cabin. The hosts were super friendly and helpful. Although the cabin looks small , we had everything we needed to enjoy ourselves. And the hot tub was AMAZING after a long hike. The crackling fire made the star gazing a very peaceful and relaxing experience. We loved every minute of it. Thank you for everything Erin .

What a fantastic cabin! Our family of 4 had such a wonderful time. The cabin itself has everything you need and our boys loved the loft with bunk beds. The outside is great with the hot tub and fire pit area. We cooked on the grill provided and had no issues. Erin is so quick to respond, we never had any issues connecting. Proximity to Sun Peaks is only about 10 minutes. It’s actually more relaxing than staying in the ski village. We loved the experience so much, we booked another week. Thanks Erin!
