About this property
Pacific Shores-Creekside Retreat 1 bed/1 bath-Private Beach-Not Crowded!
**Perfect Snowbird Opportunity - month of September is beautiful and quiet - contact me for more information**
This top-floor (4th) one bedroom, air conditioned unit, large ensuite (soaker tub), fully-equipped kitchen, large dining room table, private deck and conveniently located right on Craig Bay - oceanfront property. Seasonal water sports available, pickleball courts, indoor pool, indoor hot tub and outdoor hot tub! Perfect for a couples getaway, family gathering to just reconnect with nature and recharge!!! The many trails along the ocean will keep the family busy and satisfied as your explore the property.
This unit is equipped with everything you will need on your vacation and more! Sleeps three adults comfortably - if you need more room, check out the adjoining studio suite - listing number 2895725 - that is the combo of A Unit & B Unit.
There is an on-site restaurant called Pacific Moon Rising Bar & Grill - West Coast fusion - 250-468-0474 - check for a happy hour and other specials. And a full-service spa called Pacific Shores Wellness Spa - 250-468-2404 as well as a physio office - Pacific Motion Physiotherapy - 250-586-6633. These are all located in the main building to the right as your drive in. Same building as the pool, hot tub and gym.
Non-smoking & no pets
Everything you need to relax and enjoy the ocean is here!
This unit is a short drive to:
- Parksville - 7 minutes
- Nanaimo - 20 minutes
- Qualicum - 18 minutes
- French Creek - 16 minutes
- Tofino - 2.5 hours
Lots of beautiful shops within a short drive away, several lakes, lots of hikes or just grab a beach chair and enjoy the quiet location just outside your door. Pacific Shores is a private resort and that means small numbers of people at your private beach. Explore the tidal pools with the family. Walk during low tide and explore what the Salish Sea has to offer.
I am always interested in snowbirds too during our winter months. So if this is something that interests you, please contact me anytime. Big discounts during my off-season and what a beautiful location to explore the Island and mild climate. Guests coming and need more space, rent the B unit and open up the space back up to the two bedroom, two bathroom. Our cleaners can come in and take care of the cleaning, laundry and then upon their departure, lock the connecting doors back up and you enjoy your unit with no stress.
There is lots of extra parking under the pickleball courts and also a gravel lot if you have an extra height vehicle as well.
Come and explore Pacific Shores Resort and stay and relax in my Creekside Retreat unit.
I will be excited to host you and your family soon.
