Our story
People move here for all kinds of reasons: downsizing, working from home, finally buying the view they kept putting off. The reasons change. What doesn't change is the place they're moving to.
Shuswap Lake Estates has been building homesites in Blind Bay, BC since 1969, when Jack and Irene Barker put down roots here. Jack passed away in 2023, but the family never left. Three generations of Barkers, one community, still run the place today.

Location
Blind Bay sits 20 minutes from Salmon Arm, about an hour from Kamloops, and roughly an hour and forty minutes from Kelowna International Airport. Close enough for groceries, appointments and flights, and far enough that you're not fighting traffic to get home. Blind Bay is in the Shuswap, but it often gets grouped with the North Okanagan: Vernon, Kelowna and the rest of the Okanagan valley are an easy drive south, with a quieter lake waiting at home.

Community
So why here, out of every lake in BC? We call it the Shuswap Lifestyle. Our residents call it Living the Dream. Shuswap Lake Estates has been building that since 1969: a lake five minutes away, neighbours who stick around, and a family that's been doing this for three generations.
