PRIVATE ISLAND FOR SALE ON HORSEFLY LAKE, BC, CANADA

Nestled in the Cariboo Mountains, Echo Island is a private, 4-acre island, subdivided evenly into 4 lots (Lots A, B, C, and D), allowing exclusive ownership of the entire island. Stunning lake views against picturesque mountain backdrops greet you whether accessed by plane, boat or vehicle. Virgin timber populates the island, which features over 1500 feet of shoreline. Pristine and private, the island has a dedicated bridge for ATV and pedestrian access. Additionally, Lot C features a rustic, off-grid, two bedroom cabin that blends with the natural look of this island. There is also 55 kilometers (34 miles) of lake for fishing or water sports and thousands of acres of Crown Land to explore nearby.

 

Named after the characteristic echoing effect loud noises make from the island, Echo Island is one of those rare properties that becomes available for purchase only once in a lifetime. Its location is on the pristine waters of Horsefly Lake, British Columbia, Canada, located 1 hour East of Williams Lake.

 

Horsefly Lake's deepest depth is approximately 800 feet and has a minimum visibility of 20 feet (or more) due to its clarity, which is home to many fish species, such as: Lake Char, Rainbow Trout, Kokanee, and Dolly Varden. Its big sister Quesnel Lake, which is located just North of Horsefly Lake, both were voted for two of the cleanest lakes in North America.

 

Echo Island has been family owned for over 25 years and has many unique features that truly make it one-of-a-kind.

  • Dedicated, all season road for access with landing large enough for a helicopter pad or to park RV's

  • The island itself and the 50 ft. dock provides complete sheltered moorage for your float plane or watercraft, with lots of depth for bigger vessels

  • Due to Echo Island's close proximity to the mainland (between 50-100 ft.), there is lots of shallow (i.e. 3-4 ft. deep) warm swimming area with a clean gravelly bottom (Lake Char use this area as spawning grounds every year)

  • Most islands have very steep topography to the water, however, this property has great shoreline with gentle slopes that allow use of the entire property

  • The island cover is old growth Douglas-fir, Spruce, Cedar, Hemlock and Balsam with trees as old as 300 years, 4 ft. wide, and 150 ft. tall

  • Phenomenal wildlife viewing (e.g. Echo Island is where many cow moose have their young in the spring as the island offers great protection)

  • Unbelievable fishing (particularily on the North and East side of the Island) and hunting (i.e. game animals such as: black bear, grizzly bear, moose and mule deer) for the outdoor enthusiast to enjoy

 

Words will not explain the feeling of being on this property with the knowledge that it could be exclusive to your family for generations to come. There are very few places in North America that have such elite natural beauty, vast recreational opportunities, and incredible fishing and hunting potentional. Echo Island is where laughter is loud, nature is treasured, and priceless memories with your friends and family are made to last a lifetime.
