About this property
Swansea Serene | Indoor Fireplace | 5 Min to Beach
Calm, peace, and serenity. The Serene Swan is the type of place to make memories your family will cherish for a lifetime. It has all the coziness, warmth, and nostalgia of a cabin in the woods; where the perfect blend of rustic meets charm. This perfect family getaway spot is only a 5-minute stroll from the Lake Windermere public beach and boat launch. In the winter, strap on skates & enjoy the Whiteway. Finish the days in front of the living room`s authentic, wood-burning fireplace.
The Serene Swan is the perfect spot for travellers looking for a private, lakeside space to explore Windermere & surrounding Columbia Valley.

We liked the location and it was clean. We also liked it was Family friendly and the peace and quiet. We would stay there again.
Great property for our family, very cozy with plenty of room. We traveled with our adult children and three grandchildren. The property is close to a public boat launch and within walking distance to the Windermere beach.
The property had plenty of space for all of us. We had a great stay. The only downside was the smell from the septic tank when the wind moved in the wrong direction.
Great location. Cabin has everything you need for your stay. Firepit, fire table on the deck were great. Upstairs shower did not work and the stove burners don’t all work. A lot of games for kids which was great.
