BRIDAL FALLS RESORT: COTTAGES AND LOTS AT SPECTACULAR VALUE Now is the perfect time to snap up a brand new cottage on its own lot, surrounded by stunning scenery
W
ith the hot real estate market extending from Vancouver in 2016, the impact on Chilliwack and Bridal Falls RV Cottage Resort has been significant. Valley residents have been snapping up cottages at record rates in this unique offering of a detached cottage on a private lot. “With the detached home price increases we have seen in Chilliwack this year, a brand new cottage in our resort stacks up as a tremendous value. When you consider the clubhouse, pool and other amenities the lifestyle opportunity for downsizers becomes a key factor in the decision to buy,” says Ron Sturm, owner/partner in the resort. “Right now we can offer a great selection
of the various lots in Phase 1, which have the best price and value, but that will not last much longer. Now is the best time to get involved.” Bridal Falls’ two-bedroom, two-bathroom plans are the country’s largest manufactured park model cottages, appealing to downsizers who have spent a lifetime living in a house and are not ready for a condo’s elevators, hallways and common living spaces. The resort’s amenities are anchored by an impressive 12,000-square-foot log cabin clubhouse that features a 50-seat private theatre, gym, game and card rooms, lounge, dance floor, library area and event facilities for weddings or business conference use. “There is also a 2,000-plus-square-foot sun deck overlooking the gardens, pool and hot-tub deck,” adds Sturm. Bill and Linda Nokes were sold as soon as they visited the resort. “When we saw the show cottage and how beautiful the setting was, we decided we wanted to live here full time,” says Linda. “We’ve been in resorts in
Phoenix, Arizona and throughout California, but we had never seen such gorgeous cottages along with all these amazing amenities. We were also impressed with the price, by far the best value compared to anywhere else in B.C.” The cottages feature fully covered decks, natural gas, a stainless steel kitchen appliance package and bedrooms with built-in storage. (Upgrades include a washer and drier, skylights and sliding patio doors.) Bridal Falls RV Cottage Resort is a yearround community where buyers have the option to live full time, lock and leave for part of the year, or put their cottage in the fully managed rental program. “We are the only year-round resort development in North America to offer 100-amp service, cable and natural gas to every lot,” says Sturm. “But what distinguishes us from other cottage resorts is our location at the centre of the Fraser Valley recreation hub, only minutes away from everything.” Bridal Falls is a Mecca for the outdoor
enthusiast. You are minutes away from numerous lakes, including Cultus, Chilliwack and Harrison; the Fraser River with its world famous fishing, as well as golf courses, parks and the Bridal Falls Waterslides. In addition, you can bike or hike the many local trails or meander the Cheam Lake bird sanctuary. “There is salmon, sturgeon and fly fishing on the Fraser River, which is only five minutes away,” says Sturm, adding the staff can assist with guided fishing tours. You can own a brand new cottage starting from $229,900 plus tax. The Bridal Falls RV Cottage Resort Presentation Centre and Show Cottages are located on Cheam Road, in Bridal Falls, open daily from 11am to 4pm.
