HOUSEBOAT CAPITAL OF CANADA
Time to try a different sort of vacation perhaps? How about renting a houseboat? Sicamous is known as the ‘Houseboat Capital of Canada’. Located in the Shuswap area, between Mara Lake and Shuswap Lake some 200 houseboats are rented out annually. Slowly navigate the quiet waters of these lakes and enjoy the scenery and relaxed atmosphere that this region offers. There are many other activities and areas to explore. Golfing, fishing and hiking are popular and you can try some fabulous locally-made icecream from the farm store at the “D” Dutchmen Dairy. And the kids will love the animals too. In the winter cross-country skiing is a popular pastime.
