Beautiful winter getaway
We had a wonderful time in your cozy cabin overlooking the Salish Sea during the stormy season. The cabin had everything we needed for a fun winter getaway, puzzles, DVDs, a comfortable bed, and a fully stocked kitchen.

Traumhafter Urlaub
Ich war für 14 Tage im Herbst dort. Die Unterkunft war gemütlich, die Lage direkt am Meer traumhaft. Ich konnte genau das machen, was ich geplant hatte: lesen, dem Meer zuhören, Tiere beobachten und entspannen.

Quiet Getaway
Had a great visit to Texada, this was a wonderful cabin that had everything we needed. The bay has large tide movements which meant the kids had a blast exploring and swimming during low tide. Would return!

Relaxing Island Vacation
The cottage was very comfortable with a beautiful view overlooking Gilles Bay, which we enjoyed during our stay. Several nice rocky beaches to relax and explore during the week with Shelter Point, Glass Beach and Single Beach being our favourites. The museum is worth a visit and make sure to go to the Sunday Farmer's Market to pick up one of Gale's pies before they sell out! Overall, a very relaxing and enjoyable week at the cottage.

About the host

Hosted by Nicole

Host profile image
We are a family with kids who live in Vancouver and, cliche as it sounds, fell in love with Texada on a short visit.

We love ocean views and this cozy log cabin was the perfect fit! We love that this island has a real sense of community, but also is a perfect getaway from the city and a place for memories to be made. A place for recharging one's senses and where people are real and super friendly! We hope to share this island experience with you.

Why they chose this property

Unbeatable views on Texada from this cabin.
Best location on the island - Gillies Bay!
Convenient to everything there is!
Waterfront! With miles and miles of beach during low tide in the summer.
Great for stormwatching in the fall and winter (lower rates and min nights)
Create memories here! Relax and unwind!

What makes this property unique

Waterfront. Beach in front. Best on the island, we dare say! Doesnt get better than this!
