Lovely place, great host, would visit again.

The weather!!!! (Can't blame Karen for that!)

Perfect location. The cabin was cozy and comfortable.

The place was not so clean. Pots, pans, cooking utensils had food residue so I had to wash them before use. Same with coffee maker. The bathroom had hair from previous guests, I had to clean the drain before using the tub.

Nice cabin for 2 and our small dog. Both the deck and outdoor firepit area is enclosed. Gas furnace inside heats up the cabin quickly.

A few extra mugs and cutlery would have been handy.

Had everything we needed for relaxing stay, bbq and outdoor space is just perfect for family break.

There is not enough light in the room, extra luminaires would certainly help. No really exciting trails nearby.

The cabin is located in the compound of summer/vacation houses on the rock near a bay. We selected it as a stop on our marine road loop exploration of Vancouver island. The stay fully met expectations. The hosts provided grill, fireplace and vacation-style seating outside. We drove to trails nearby. There is only one decent restaurant in the area, and that is why we did some cooking. The host provided all needed kitchen stuff, so it was convenient. It is also a quiet place, and the air quality is great. The area is probably best for those liking fishing.

We were totally satisfied. Nothing to dislike. We even got to experience seeing a couple grey whales at Botanical Beach which is something our host had suggested we might see.

We especially liked the privacy of this cabin. There are many cabins in this complex and we are not sure any had as private a lot as us. The firepit was totally surrounded by a hedge and we couldn't even see our neighbours. Karen provided us with a propane firepit as there was a fire ban during our stay. We were able to sit around it in the evenings and enjoy s'mores. This is like luxury glamping because of the firepit experience. Also loved the sun on the front deck which extended our afternoons.

Despite being surrounded by other cabins the property maintains its “in the woods” privacy, decent kitchen space to prepare meals. All round a nice little place to stay

Bathtub needs a check on , as it flows down very slowly and some water accumulates while showering. But it was not really bothering us.

This is an awesome little getaway place. Very private. It is located on an estate with lots of cabins, cottages and houses on a hill. But this one is at a little trail, end of the road , surrounded by trees and shrubs, so very private. We were allowed to have our dog with us, without extra fee. The big deck is fully fenced and gated. It was so perfect for my dog to be outside. There is also a fire pit and firewood. The steller's Jay's came to visit us! The cabin is cozy,but not tiny! We felt very comfortable, enough room to play with my small dog too. The owner was friendly and answered questions quickly. The kitchen has everything to have some quick, easy meals. Heating is very effective. You can set the temperature by yourself. There is a PB backup fireplace. Big TV with Netflix and other streaming. You park right beside the entrance, very convenient. Entering is quick and easy, the key is in a locked box. I loved the owl theme. All kinds of things with owls on ☺️🦉

The host was very responsive and helped when needed.

Although the cottage offers everything that is required, it is in need of some TLC. Noticed pet hair on the sofa.

The location as well as the type of cottage, which is very convenient to use. The balcony must be great in the summertime. Good to have a bbq available, and the gas stove was great. Karen was quick to reply to messages.

We had a great time but if you want to stay here for a longer period I would recommend to stay here with two people. We were here with our (16&18 yo) sons and then it tends to get a bit crowded.

Really nice cabin with a lovely porch to sit on. Fully equipped kitchen. Bed en pull out sofa were great. Host was really friendly and communication went very well.

I likes that the little house had everything we needed to be comfortable, including a bath tub that was quite enjoyable

Location was great

Would not have been comfortable for 4- glad our friends didn’t join us

Clean and well equipped

I suggest that the cabin has an ant problem - probably needs to be fumigated. (Having had a similar experience in my home this year.) The sofa bed should have a cover on the mattress and should be made up. Lastly, one bulb in the bathroom was out. Ants, though, we a real problem.

The Cabin was comfortable and we could have our dog with us.

Cleanliness of deck and yard

No food. Cute building.

Stayed in March 2023

The outdoor plug in lights do not work which made it hard to see. Also one of the gates was broken and my dog escaped. It was very annoying to have to take the garbage to the dump. The fire place was a bit tricky.

The cabin is great! Very private and comfortable. The bed is very comfortable. The bathtub is nice and deep.Karen was very friendly and helpful.

The noise of costruction right next door to us

Stayed in October 2022

Nothing.

Everything, it was very cosy and comfortable, the outdoor area was very private, the bed was super comfortable and everything was just perfect. This is definitely the most private cabin in the whole area!

Very cozy and very private cabin. It has everything you need beginning with a fully equipped kitchen and firepit outside. The location is great.

The location, the setting and an excellent veranda/fire pit

Everything we needed was there and the bed is super comfy! Thank you.

Place was VERY dusty, cobwebs up in the ceiling, dead ants on the floor and some alive crawling up on to the table and counteracts.. Area carpet is filthy, the mattress cover on the pullout couch is stained, extra pillows in drawers stained, extra linens were smelly and unusable. Pullout couch was filthy and stained.

Location was good,quiet except privacy was disrupted by the painters

Was an awsome little cozy place. There are a family of stellar Jay's that keep you good company while sitting outside my the fire.

Poorly equipped. No coffee filters, (no store open til 11am), ad said everything for 4. No chance. 2 coffee cups! Crap kitchen utensils. These things are important in remote areas with limited dining. Great hot water though. Surprise $200 damage deposit? In home manual said that we had to wash and put away the dishes plus take the trash to the dump. All of wish we did.
