The location and setting of this property was ideal, with proximity to town and privacy at the property. Huy greeted us after we checked in and gave is some helpful advice on places/areas to explore. The cabin had everything we needed for our two night stay and the beds were comfortable. We had one small concern that was acknowledged and addressed immediately.
Hosts were super friendly. Cottage was simple and comfortable, though rustic. Really hope they get the sulphur smell in the hot water figured out. Appreciated the bottled water to help with this. A good little place for a simple landing place from where to explore beautiful Saltspring Island.
Great location near Ganges, rental kitchen is well-equipped for cooking although small (perfect for a couple), hosts friendly and helpful. Very private cabin!
Perfect spot close to Ganges! Loved having two rooms. Kitchen was just what we needed and it felt great to have our own space for our stay. Very private, and helpful friendly hosts!
We came to Salt Spring to ride our bikes and found the Blue Little Cottage a very welcoming and cozy place to be after our rides! Our hosts were very helpful.
The host were very helpful. The property was fantastic with all essential equipped! Comfortable beds in a clean property. Thank you and I will surely stay again when I visit.

Thank you so much for your kind words.
Hope to host you again in the future
Beautifully maintained little cabin. It has everything needed for a quiet, comfortable stay. Really enjoyed sitting on the covered front porch in the morning & evening, listening to birds and spotting deer. The hosts were very friendly and welcoming. A great source of information for all things Salt Spring!
