Cottonwood lots hit market

The Cottonwood Cove RV park will soon begin selling lots.

The Cottonwood Cove RV park will soon begin selling lots.

The park, located in the North Shuswap near Lee Creek, is offering two nights of free camping during the 2016 summer season to those who show interest in purchasing a lot, excluding July and August, .

Lots are advertised on Cottonwood Cove’s website for $79,900 or more. Maureen Cousins of the Cottonwood Cove sales department said the top end lots are priced at $274,900 because they are large waterfront lots in an old-growth area of the park.

Most of the lots will be in the $100,000 to $150,000 range.

Cousins said all of the lots in the park will be sold off however long it might take, but owners are then free to join a rental management program in which Cottonwood Cove will rent out the spots on their behalf.

“It gives the owners an opportunity to have income coming in when they’re not using their lots,” Cousins said.

Other owner benefits  listed on the park’s website include year-round RV storage, lot personalizations such as decks and storage sheds and an on-site manager to ensure that the property and facilities are well-maintained.

Sites are furnished with 50 amp power and fresh water. Owners also have access to the on-site marina and boat launch.

Cousins said the developer has updated the property with new laundry and shower facilities, a pool and hot tub and improved boat slips over the past year.

Cottonwood Cove will be a freehold strata with owners holding the title to their own lot.

“There has been very good interest so far, some sales are already underway,” said Cousins said.
