Approximately 100 years ago Cabins and Cottages were built in the Waterton Lakes National Park Townsite. Few of those log cabins remain today. This is one of them! Structurally sound and absolutely adorable, this cabin was named Vimy View because of the wonderful view of Vimy mountain from the front. Stepping inside this ICONIC cabin in the mountains will transport you back to a simpler time. Isn't that what a summer cabin is all about? The sleeping porch and back room, the sleeping loft, the Foster fireplace, the cast iron tub, the wood windows and fir rafters and beams are all part of what make it both functional and a treasure. Many try to emulate this authentic look, but this is the real craftsman architecture. The cabin is situated on an interior lot with a grove of maples in the back to shade the deck. This location benefits from the occasional cooling breeze from the nearby Cameron Falls but remains protected from the force of the wind of the lakefront. Everything is nearby, including the playground, tennis and pickle ball courts, downtown, and Cameron Creek walking path. There is a garage with covered addition off its side for boat storage. Imagine yourself sitting in the front enclosed porch area playing a card game or enjoying the view. This extraordinary cabin has been lovingly maintained and curated for 100 years and is now ready for a new owner to step in with contents included to carry on this legacy property. Waterton Lakes National Park is a lifestyle and opportunity for recreation and connection to nature that is hard to find. Come benefit from a lease that is not due for renewal until 2050! Come make this part of your life and well being. There is newer sewer and water lines, the stove is new as of July 2024. (id:47423)
