A variety of popular activities are available in the area around SookePoint Ocean Cottage Resort, including cycling and hiking. A fitness room is accessible for an additional daily fee per person. The location, on a cliff facing the Strait of Juan de Fuca, was fantastic. The cottage itself was very modern, well-equipped for cooking, immaculate with a great shower and deep bathtub. Even in November, the wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling glass balcony doors are worth throwing open to see, hear and feel the sea air and waves directly below. Hummingbirds visited each day. Everything was very high quality and the staff in reception was very helpful and friendly. Check-in and check-out were straight-forward.

Inn the Estuary

Nanoose Bay

A cozy fireplace and a private patio with an outdoor soaker bath are part of every room at Inn the Estuary. They have large windows with views of the ocean, mountains and estuary.

Morecroft Park and Fairwinds golf course are 5 km from the inn. Craig Heritage Park & Museum is 8 km away. The guest suite is fabulous. The entire building and grounds are beautifully designed and lovingly cared for. The views from our room were breathtaking. We saw otters playing and bald eagles. The setting is peaceful and seems far away from anything but is actually very convenient to many sights.
