You've made it. The drive is over, the bags are unpacked, and the peaceful sounds of nature are calling you outside. This isn't just a place to sleep; it's a place to reset. Here's your guide to mastering the art of unwinding and making the most of your escape at The Antler House.
The Digital Detox: Your Invitation to Unplug
Life is busy, and we get it. But now that you're here and comfortably settled in, we invite you to consciously unplug and embrace the present moment. Gather around the round kitchen table and grab a board game from the cupboard, connecting with your crew over friendly competition. Or, cozy up with a good book by the gas fireplace and get wonderfully lost in a world of words. The digital world can totally wait; those quiet, cozy moments are what you came for.
Your Own Private Spa Experience
Relaxation is personal, and at The Antler House, you have everything you need to create your own spa-like experience. Our spacious main bathroom features a large, luxurious soaker tub—perfect for a long, rejuvenating soak.
To enhance your experience, we recommend a short walk to Harrison Lavender, just down the road. This local gem offers a wonderful selection of essential oils, soothing lotions, and calming candles. The Cedar essential oil is especially wonderful! You can create your own custom aromatherapy session right here at the house, turning a simple bath into a truly restorative ritual.
Embrace the Outdoors & The Art of Stillness
The best way to decompress is often found right outside the door. Our private backyard is a sanctuary designed for relaxation. Spend a cool evening gathered around the fire pit, sharing stories and enjoying the fresh air. On warmer nights, relax on the large patio with a glass of wine or your favorite hot beverage.
We invite you to fully immerse yourself in the natural soundscape. Close your eyes and tune in to the symphony of the running creek and the gentle murmur of the distant road. You might even hear the call of coyotes or the nightly chorus of frogs.
Sunset Rituals: The Calm of Harrison Lake
While The Antler House is a sanctuary, the natural beauty of the region is just moments away. We invite you to make the short, scenic drive into Harrison Hot Springs village for a simple evening ritual. As the day cools, take a leisurely stroll along the sandy beach of Harrison Lake or let the clear water wash over your feet. Watching the sun set over the mountains from the shore is an absolutely spectacular way to spend an evening.
Whether you choose to spend your days exploring or your evenings completely still, The Antler House is your canvas for a peaceful and restorative escape. We hope you leave feeling refreshed and reconnected with the spirit of British Columbia.
