About this property

Shabby-chic Rustic-industrial shipping container fully equiped tiny home

Welcome to Ripple on Stillwater Tiny House, your getaway home is a fully equipped Shabby-chic Rustic-industrial 280 sqft shipping container tiny home with private yard situated a stones throw from beautiful Thunder Bay in the Stillwater area south of Powell River, B.C.
The space
A few years ago I had the brilliant idea to "slap" our existing guest shed onto a shipping container to make a tiny house. It definitely was not that easy. But the end result is a very unique space. Shabby-chic, Rustic-industrial shipping container tiny house.

Nestled amongst towering trees with nearby incredible views of Jervis Inlet and Hardy Island. Whatever the weather, the surroundings are glorious at all times of the year! An ideal location where you can relax and enjoy the many outdoor activities this beautiful area has to offer.

The tiny house is located on the edge of our property only a quick 2 minute walk to Thunder Bay Beach or a 5 minute drive to a lovely beach at Canoe Bay. The Stillwater Bluffs are also a 5 minute drive away and a beautiful hike - definitely worth checking out, especially on a beautiful day! Or relax in the Adirondack chairs around the propane fire pit.

The Sunshine Coast Trail is just moments away making the tiny home an excellent place to start or stop-over location.

We are located 10 mins from the Saltery Bay Ferry Terminal and 25 mins to downtown Powell River.
Guest access
Tiny home has a private yard with parking.
Other things to note
Propane BBQ, propane fire pit, Adirondack chairs and a covered outdoor dinning area complete the yard.

Our stay in the tiny home was enjoyable. Kitchen facilities were well equipped and the rest of the amenities met our expectations. It was a bonus having the fans for air movement, as it was quite warm in the house during our stay. A short walk to the ocean was nice. The surroundings were lovely and the area was quiet.

Had all you needed. Very comfy, cozy. 5 min to beach. Quick response from host if needed. Good for two! A little out of town 20 min, but great for exploring the whole strech of Powell River.

Shabby chic industrial look

The place described in the online listing was accurate. We loved the house features i.e. rustic, creative yet industrial and functional. Great place to stay! Melanie is an awesome host. She responded to our queries very quickly.

Quaint Hideaway

Our quaint little accommodations met all of our needs. The location was in a pretty forest & all the comforts we needed. We come to Powell River a couple times a year to visit family & we would love to stay again in the warmer months. Lots of nice little touches in our room & I would have given 5 stars instead of 4 except there was a lot of cobwebs that I think are just common in the winter months & sometimes difficult to see in certain light while cleaning. Overall a lovely little place.

Creative, private, comfy, set up with everything we needed, beautiful location. My husband found the bed a bit soft, that may be personal taste. Otherwise we loved this tiny home and recommend it enthusiastically

Small but Sweer

I stayed at Melanie's place for a week with two friends. We are good friends. So this small place worked well for us. We ate our meals on the porch and enjoy the peace and quiet of the Woods. The beach is a 5-minute walk, which is phone to explore. Melanie has made the place very comfortable, and she has stalked the kitchen well. Great towels for the bathroom. And far from any traffic. That's what we were looking for. A good spot to explore the area.

We were so happy with our stay in the tiny home. Yes it is tiny but the layout is set up perfectly and makes the home feel bigger than it is. Our only regret is only being available for 1 night. Being close to the Saltery Bay ferry is a huge plus as well. The host Melanie is very attentive and helpful. The area put out a boil water advisory, and Melanie immediately dropped off clean drinking water to ensure we were still comfortable. I did feel bad as the checkout time on VRBO is set at 11am, but it was 10am when I noticed the guidebook in the room says checkout is 9am. I wonder if that could be cleared up between the host and guest in future stays so that guests know to be out by a certain time.
