Escape to Ocean Song Cottages on Vancouver Island in the Pacific Northwest. 3+ acres offering an intimate, adult only space with ocean views just 1 hour from Victoria. Enjoy subtle luxury with a calm & quiet pnw vibe; gas fireplace, sauna, soaker tub, outdoor shower, gas grill & fast WiFi. Please visit and RELAX • RENEW • RESET

We believe that slowing down from time to time is essential and doing so surrounded by the forest, with the ocean only a short walk away, creates a space where it is easy to breathe and enjoy the things that make the soul sing.

Ocean Song Cottages were completely renovated in the Spring of 2022. The aim was to have cottages that were light filled, minimal and quietly luxurious with modern conveniences and finishes all while finding a balance that allowed them to sit comfortably in the forested oceanside landscape. The result was a carefully considered mix of nordic hygge and mid-century modern with a nod to our own Pacific Northwest's contemporary aesthetic: simple forms, real wood, a restrained palette and maintaining an open feel to the space.

Stroll the property while viewing wildlife that can include bear, deer, birds of prey, whales and seals. This serene and breathtaking oceanfront property can make your dream of enjoying a PNW getaway a reality!

We want you to feel comfortable here, to enjoy your time, to leave encouraged, rested and rejuvenated. This is Ocean Song, you are welcome here and we think you’ll like it.

This is a beautiful place to escape your busy life. You are perched up on the cliff and overlooking the ocean. The cottage is immaculate and has everything you need. This area of the Island is gorgeous and lush and you spend hours walking and enjoying the beaches/parks. Highly recommend!

Beautiful view and lovely little cottage

The cottage was perfect for a relaxing anniversary weekend. The view was spectacular from everywhere including the bed. No matter where you are you have a view of the Straight of Juan De Fuca. The hot tub and outdoor shower add to the experience. 10 out of 10 would stay here again.

Recharge

"The perfect place to slow down and recharge. The view is spectacular. Seeing eagles, bears, and deer the daily adds to the whole ambiance. The internet was great, and the amenities, as well as the little things such as yoga gear, plush robes, and body care products, were excellent."

Amazing Property!!

This property is simply stunning, and absolutely perfect for a little Adult Only getaway. The booking and check in process was very easy, and the owner is great to deal with, responding to questions in a very timely manner. This property is situated in a stunning setting, with amazing sunsets!! The cabin is well stocked with everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. The peace a quiet we experienced was perfect, and allowed us to disconnect, and enjoy our time together. We will definitely be returning to this property, as this was probably the best VRBO experience we have ever had.

A slice of paradise

This was the ideal place for us. I love beautiful nature, waterfalls, beaches with rocks, lush green temperate rain forests, and wild life. My husband likes tranquility, exclusivity (away from people and crowds) and a private outdoor hot tub with incredible views. Both of us love the temperatures in the Pacific Northwest in summer and we really didn't want to return home at all. The cottage is very quiet and perfectly cozy for two. The kitchen is well equipped for simple meals. The food here is so delicious and fresh, and we enjoyed cooking our meals here and enjoying the outdoor table with a better view than any restaurant patio. Melodie was a wonderful, thoughtful, accommodating host and gave us many detailed descriptions and ideas of beautiful places to see and visit. The cottage is tastefully decorated, not too much to be distracting, not too little to be bare and while we had almost no cell reception with our American plan, the wifi in cottage was blazing fast. One thing to be aware of: the cottage has a queen sized bed, not a king size. My husband is 6'3", very broad shoulders, and I'm 5'9" and plus sized as well. We fit on the bed, but not that comfortably. Hubby, ever the gentleman, ended up sleeping on the couch a few nights to make sure I got the comfy bed. This wouldn't really stop us from returning here as we loved it so much, but it is good to be aware. That said, the bed was high quality as were all the linens and pillows provided, and Melodie was very thoughtful in asking us what kind of blankets we would prefer before we arrived. I have never seen such consideration in a host before, so I highly recommend staying here.

Ocean Song was an ideal location for a mini-retreat. We'd suggest planning to spend at least a full day just relaxing on the property as the host has it perfectly appointed for optimal relaxation and rejuvenation. When I say every detail has been considered, I mean EVERY detail. From the high powered binoculars (you'll want them for whale watching) to abundant towels and even cozy slippers to pad around the house, you will find everything you need for a relaxing stay. The property itself boasts sweeping views of the Strait of Juan de Fuca from which you can while away the hours watching passing ships and whales.

What a beautiful place!

The cottage is well designed with everything you need. There has been a lot of thought put into every detail to bring comfort to your stay. The ambiance is calm, private and relaxed. We felt pampered with the accommodations and setting…an amazing view that is ever changing. Melodie is a great communicator, answering questions prior and during our stay! We will certainly visit the cottage next time we travel to Victoria.

Relaxing Oasis on Vancouver Island

The Ocean Song cottages were amazing -- perfect for a chance to disconnect, relax, and take in the beauty of Vancouver Island. The cottage had everything we needed for a week of relaxation: a small but very well equipped kitchen, a private hot tub looking out on the Juan de Fuca Strait, a hammock to lie in and read a book, and a gas fireplace to warm ourselves after a day of hiking in the area. Lots of wildlife to see, including bald eagles nesting on the property, and sea lions swimming in the strait below. The property is very quiet--there's only one other cottage on the property, and most of the time, you'd never even know if anyone was staying in the other cottage. The host Melodie is easy to deal with and very responsive. We had an amazing time, and can't wait to go back.

Absolutely Perfect Restorative Retreat

My husband and I stayed at Ocean Song Cottages for our honeymoon and could not have been more satisfied with our stay. Melodie provided excellent suggestions for the timing of our journey to Shirley and amazing recommendations for what to do while we were there. The spa like atmosphere she has created with each perfectly curated piece of furniture, bed sheet, robe, towel, bath and body products made us feel like royalty. The view from every corner of the cottage and grounds is breathtaking. We feel so lucky to have been able to call Cedar Cottage out home away from home and look forward to returning! Melodie - Thank you for your dedication to creating a peaceful and restorative environment for your guests! P.S. The chocolate welcome gift was absolutely amazing!!

About the host

Hosted by Melodie

Host profile image
We purchased the cottages in August 2021 because it was a case of love at first sight. The moment we stepped out of our car the view took my breath away and I remember thinking “My life is about to change.”

We had found a place, a uniquely beautiful place, to experience relaxation and renewal, a space which would encourage us to connect and reflect on what matters most. With refined comforts and expansive views a stay at the cottages prioritizes rest and retreat. Live simply. Live slow. Breathe in nature.

Why they chose this property

Ocean Song Cottages were closed at the end of the season on January 7, 2022 and re-opened on April 1, 2022. They were carefully and intentionally renovated with a strong emphasis on what matters - comfort and nature. Light pours into the cottages' large windows, bespoke interior fittings, modern appliances and furniture make for an easy stay and encourages a focus on well-being and reconnecting with nature. Outside there are 3.5 acres to explore plus many fabulous beaches close by. Each cottage is graced with a gas grill, 2-person hot tub and a large, shared expansive lawn which gently slopes down towards a breathtaking view of the ocean.

What makes this property unique

The simplicity of Ocean Song Cottage living is beautiful, airy and inviting; who knows, these cottages might just change your life too! We want you to feel comfortable here, to enjoy your time, to leave encouraged, rested and rejuvenated, this is why Ocean Song Cottages exist and you are welcome here.
