Great get-a-way spot

Just what a log cabin should be; homey, warm, and comfortable. And the back yard was like a private little oasis with a water feature, table, chairs and a BBQ. Very quiet and private.

Really good value!

I have stayed at many places all over Vancouver island, but this one was one of the better experiences and is very good value for the money. The soaker tub outside, the sauna, the outdoor fire pit, and robes made it extra cozy and special. I will book again for aure!

Beautiful log home. Great location.

A modern, yet rustic log cabin home. Very cozy with private back yard. Just a couple of blocks from the Sooke boardwalk and a two minute drive to shops, restaurants, and a high-speed EV charger. Five minutes from Whiffen Spit. The property manager made sure we were comfortable and that we had everything to make our stay a pleasant one. Would highly recommend.
