We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, Dorothy was very quick at responding and very helpful with a last minute request we had. The Cabin felt like home, very clean and had everything you would need for your stay. The pool was great and the cabin was in the perfect location close to parksville but in a quiet area, mini golf close by and great restaurant across the street at a neighbouring resort. Will be booking again for sure!

Absolutely fantastic property in an amazing location. This is our second stay traveling from alberta with my parents from scotland. We loved it so much last year we came back this year. It is totally a home from home and cannot wait to come back.

Such a good stay!

We have rented at a lot of places and this one gets the highest marks. It was immaculately clean and everywhere you looked there were special touches. From the welcome wine and chocolates to toys out for the kids, sand mat and water cooler for the beach. The beds were so comfortable too!

Great cottage

Everything was excellent. Fast replies from the host, clean and comfortable accommodation and very well stocked (including a very thoughtful bottle of BC wine). As with all the other reviews we would certainly recommend this cottage. It was located in a very well kept resort community close to everything.

Walk to beach was a little longer than I thought it would be, but did enjoy the lovely Rathtrevor beach. Too bad dogs were not allowed on the beach.

Relaxing!

We enjoyed our stay at this cottage, had everything we needed with the beach was a short walk away. The upstairs loft space came in handy as it had a great big TV up and away from the bedrooms downstairs. Perfect for watching movies after our young son had gone to bed. Highly recommend for a nice relaxing family summer vacation!

Wonderful family vacation with 5 adults an an infant

The place was as photos and descriptions showed. The host was very accommodating! The kitchen had everything absolutely everything we needed. Remember to bring shampoo & conditioner.The location was perfect-we could walk to the pool, mini golf, beach, spa and a couple of restaurants. We would definitely recommend this place!
