Perfect little get away spot for our family and pup. We only wish we had discovered this little gem earlier. Judy was so responsive to my questions and keeping us informed it was just a perfect spot to retreat to.

The cottage was wonderful. It was spacious, clean, thoughtfully finished and equipped. Judy was responsive and easy to communicate with. The report is quiet and close to many amenities. The onsite restaurants, nail salons, spa and pool were great! Would definitely book again.

All of the above. Our host Judy was the best; very responsive, helpful, kind and everything you hope for. The house was comfortable and had all we needed for a short stay and more. All around it has been a very enjoyable and fantastic place to stay. Thank you!

We had such a lovely time during the almost-week we stayed at Owl's Hollow! The cabin is very clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, and Judy is amazingly helpful. The location is great - just off the walking path and a short distance to Rathtrevor Park/Beach and the Top Bridge trail. This cabin is really well put together - it has everything you could possibly want in the kitchen, hooks and storage space where you need them, passes for the pool, a cozy fireplace, everything! Would definitely recommend. :)

The property was lovely and just as described. We had everything we needed for an enjoyable 12 day holiday. The BBQ on the terrace was a bonus and we used it most days. Oceanside Village Resort was a perfect location with access to the stunning Rathtrevor beach just a 10 minute walk away. We were holidaying with young adults and the mini golf and small pool house were popular with everyone. We particularly loved that there was plenty to do yet the resort was always peaceful and quiet. There was even a small art shop on site where we bought acrylic pens to paint pebbles one evening. We were visiting family who live in nearby Qualicum and the location was perfect for us. We will definitely stay at Owls Lodge again and we are looking forward to our next visit.
