Great Cottage

This cottage was picture perfect. Our family enjoyed our stay here. It is close to many stores and dining options, but the kitchen is perfect to cook in as well. As others have stated, the landscaping is absolutely beautiful.

Cozy Crafstman Cottage

Wonderful cozy and functional cottage with superior design, craftsmanship and furnishing throughout. Excellent home base to visit with family and enjoy the central area of the island. The kitchen island and adjacent dining area made it easy to prepare and enjoy meals. Great private setting with plenty of large windows to enjoy the forest surroundings.

Cottage of my Dreams

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. From the moment we walked through the front door our cares melted away. The cottage is set apart in a quiet forested / landscaped area that gives you privacy and great views out every window. This place checks all the boxes. I almost hate to give it this review because I want to keep it for myself. Stay here! You won’t be disappointed.

Cosy cottage in the woods

Very enjoyable cottage in a private location.

We really enjoyed our stay here and would easily choose to stay again. We were visiting family for July in a other part of Lantzville, so used this place as our home base. It was very comfortable and secluded, giving us a quiet place to retreat in the evening. The cottage itself is stylishly decorated and very modern. I’d recommend it to anyone wanting to explore this part of the island.

Family Stay

A real gem of a property. The hosts were great to communicate with and went above and beyond to ensure everything was catered for. The cottage is unique and has a lot of character. The location was also perfect for exploring the mid to north of the island. Our kids loved the property also - smart TV, patio area and plenty of places to hide! Highly recommended.

Beautifully decorated and immaculate. We loved the kitchen (very well stocked with new utensils etc) and the fireplace was perfect to curl up in front of and watch a movie. 5 stars!

Perfect vacation home

We found a very nice cottage with perfect equipment in new condition. We were delighted with the wonderful and very well-kept outdoor area and the plants. It is an absolutely quiet location with excellent connections to the infrastructure of Nanaimo and Lantzville. For us it was a great starting point for excursions to beaches, waterfalls, hikes or whale watching tours. The nearest supermarket is 5 minutes away, the ferry 20 minutes.

Peaceful home away from home!

This cute little cottage nestled in the trees was an amazing place to stay. It was like a 5 star hotel and it had everything we needed. We really enjoyed the private patio with a bbq. We sat out and drank our wine and barbecued 5 out of 7 nights. It was 30 plus degrees during our stay but the cottage was very comfortable. This location is very accessible to all amenities in Nanaimo. We visit Nanaimo multiple times a year and look forward to staying again.
