This was truly the most relaxed zo think I've ever been on Vacstion! This beautiful cabin so comfortable and clean and has everything you'll need for fun activities and total relaxation. A great location in between Sechelt and Pendour Harbour, so many little day trips to explore local area. but our favourite part of our weeks long stay. was just hanging out on the patio and dock, paddleboarding, and stargazing..Booked for next year's girls trip 355 more sleeps!

Most impressive and beautiful location, absolutely delivered on the description on the VRBO site. Totally peaceful, wildlife aplenty and the canoeing was the icing on the cake, totally safe, 2 70 year olds feel very fit now and grateful that they had the weather to experience this aspect to the full.Everything worked, Jennifer was contactable whenever we had a question and exploring the area was a joy.

The accommodation was clean and well equipped. We felt at home and comfortable, during our stay. This was a perfect quiet getaway to reset and relax, the water and trees made for scenic views from every window and it was a pleasure getting up early to watch the sun rise and start each day.

Perfect little slice of paradise. Beyond quiet, you truly feel like you’re in your own world. The house is cozy and has pretty much everything you could ask for. The dock area with the kayaks was a wonderful place to spend some time along with watching the bears and otters that frequented the cove. If you aren’t familiar with the coast, it can feel like a bit of a drive when wanting to explore but the highway is always beautiful regardless of the distance. Highly recommend to anyone!
