About this property
Private spacious suite w/ stunning ocean views, large deck, close to beach
Experience coastal living in Jordan River. Private & spacious top floor suite with an abundance of windows that bring the outdoors in, blending natural beauty with West Coast style.
Take in spectacular ocean views from the expansive balcony; perfect for relaxing, grilling, soaking up the sun, and maybe even spotting an orca or a black bear in the distance.
Whether you're hiking, surfing, or unwinding among the trees, this quiet oasis offers the ideal place to recharge and connect with nature.
The space
This house was built with authentic West Coast materials, beautiful wood trim and maple wood flooring.
The house naturally has a lot of light, due to the large windows and southern exposure. The spacious balcony has breathtaking views of the Juan de Fuca Strait and Olympic Mountains.
There are lounge chairs, a patio table for four, and a premium barbecue on the balcony. Inside, the living room, dining area and kitchen are open concept. The living room has an electric reclining leather couch and love seat, a propane fireplace, and a 60" smart TV.
The dining area has a beautiful table that seats four. The spacious kitchen features a large island with 3 bar stools, a gas range stove, modern appliances, generous counter/cupboard space, and a dishwasher.
Bedroom 1: King-size bed with three large bay windows showcasing stunning ocean views, plus direct access to the balcony through sliding doors. Includes an ensuite bathroom with a full shower, soaking tub, and walk-in closet.
Bedroom 2: Queen-size bed with a dedicated workspace, looking out to the ocean. Cozy and bright room with easy access to the main bathroom just steps away.
Outside: a charming front deck featuring beautiful fir beams and a cozy veranda. Enjoy a large front yard with a picnic table and a spacious driveway for easy parking and access to the suite.
This suite is filled with West Coast energy, natural elements and stunning views. It's great for a family of four, couples, or a relaxing getaway with friends.
We provide all the essentials to make you feel right at home, including:
• A fully stocked kitchen with coffee beans, grinder, tea, spices, salt & pepper, cooking oil
• Bath and shower towels, linens, extra blankets and pillows
• Two bathrooms with shampoo, conditioner, and body wash
• High-speed Wi-Fi, desk, can steam and do virtual meetings
• Smart TV: Netflix, Prime, Disney+, and Bell Satellite
• Laundry room featuring high-end appliances, equipped to handle any laundry needs
Guest access
Guests will have full access to the entire top suite, (except the garage), providing a spacious and private suite. The entry is located at the front door. Guests will be given an access code before their arrival. You’ll also have exclusive access to the spacious front yard and front deck.
*There is a private bottom suite for owners: Please note we are not there much during this time of year, and it will likely just be you and your crew. If we do plan on being there, we will inform you.
The only shared part between the two suites is the driveway.
Other things to note:
Power Outages:
Power outages are part of the charm in Jordan River, especially during stormy winter months. If the power goes out, don’t worry—bottled water is stocked in the kitchen, and the propane stove and propane fireplace will keep you cozy and well-fed while you wait for the lights to return. With no power there is no Wi-Fi, it’s a chance to slow down and enjoy the natural beauty around you.
Cell Phones:
Cell service is limited to the local towers which are operated by Rogers. Please be aware of roaming charges while in the area.
Groceries, Gas & Supplies:
Sooke, BC: Last stop for gas, groceries, and supplies, it's about 30-35 minutes away from our place. We do offer coffee, cooking oils and spices. Its best to bring your groceries out on the way, especially if you’re getting in late.
Septic System:
This property is on a septic system, so guests should avoid flushing sanitary napkins or paper towels down the toilet.
The numerous beaches and hiking trails are just minutes away.

About the host
Hosted by Kaolin and Amanda Pickett
Welcome to our house! We've travelled far and wide, but nowhere has captured our hearts like Vancouver Island. The rugged coastline, wild nature, and down-to-earth vibe make this place truly special. We spent a couple of decades living in Jordan River and know the area well. We're always available to help via text or email if you need anything.
We're happy to share our local knowledge.

Why they chose this property
We chose Jordan River because it offers a rare kind of peace, the kind that only comes from being surrounded by nature. Tucked between the forest and the ocean on the rugged west coast of Vancouver Island, this quiet community gives us the space to slow down and reconnect with what really matters.
Life here is shaped by the rhythm of the waves, the call of eagles, and the endless beauty of the wild. Whether it's walking along the beach at sunset, surfing in the morning mist, or simply watching the rain roll in from the Pacific, Jordan River offers a deep sense of calm and connection.
It's remote enough to feel like a retreat, yet close enough to Sooke or Victoria for day trips, groceries, or a night out. But honestly, once you're here it's hard to want to leave.
