This was a great rental in the Oceanside Resort development. Everything was as pictured/expected. The cottage is nicely fitted out with very comfortable beds and couches. Kitchen had everything we needed and it was all in good shape - I don't think I've ever stayed in a rental before that actual had sharp kitchen knives!

Lots of room for a family of 4. This unit is one of the most private units in the complex. Very quiet. Very well equipped with all the dishes and cooking supplies you could need. A short walk (3-4 minutes) to the indoor pool. It's a little longer walk than we realized to the beach. (An easy 20 minute road walk on foot.) It's great having the mini golf attached to the complex! Also a very short drive into town, and other facilities. Only negative was that the pool was so chlorinated that it wrecked all of our swim suits. We would have packed our old suits had we known. As it happened all of our suits were heavily bleached after using the pool/hot tub only two times. Helen was quick to respond to inquiries. Would recommend this property to families or adults looking for a low stress get away in a beautiful little town. :)

Lovely place - would stay there again.

Terrific destination for our adult family group! Very well-appointed with an accommodating host who was easy to communicate with.

It's an absolute beautiful cabin. Very tidy and clean. I highly recommend this cabin to anyone looking for a rental.

A cozy getaway! Thank you for sharing your home, it was super inviting and relaxing. The neighbourhood was quiet and peaceful, a perfect vacation to recharge! The pool and hot tub were a short distance away, and everyone was super friendly. I can’t wait to come back :)

Property was wonderful but 10 AM checkout is way too early. We would suggest changing this to 11AM or, better yet, noon.

Overall, the stay in this "quaint little cottage" was an amazing experience. Communication with the owners was a 10 out of 10. Requesting a booking, verifying reservation and follow-ups were personal, direct and left no questions or concerns. A communication binder containing a concierge contact, a map listing services, local emergency contacts, tips during the stay, activities and a checkout checklist. Information was well presented, complete and well communicated. The property was in pristine condition, very clean and well staged. A tasty decorative bottle of wine and glasses grouped together in a basket strategically placed on kitchen counter. Towels in bathrooms folded like sea shells. Patio set and barbecue in great condition and ready to use on arrival. The property was well maintained. Flower beds and potted plants healthy and gardened. Essentials around exterior and interior (filters, lightbulbs, fire alarms) serviced and in working condition. Furniture, appliances, kitchen wares and accessories in great condition and function as expected. Amenities (soaps, lotions, umbrellas, coffee & tea, sugar etc.) were not left out. It's the little details that make the stay all the more special. Give credit when due and it's due. Looking forward to future stays.

Very clean and beautiful accommodations! Helen was very easy to arrange check in with, and the hosts provided a very clear and helpful binder which outlined everything we needed to know. Had a great time and would definitely stay again!

My son and I stayed at the Nestled Inn during the last week of August 2022 for a much needed vacation. I immediately felt at home with the well appointed furnishings and cozy atmosphere of the cottage. What a perfect location!! The host Helen was friendly and helpful during our stay. Linda

Great getaway/make your TVAccess easier so you wouldn’t be called…..it was our disabled daughter’s mini vacation & it was perfect for our stay…..the private deck in the back with the barbaque was great……...Thank You,Heather

Very lovely cottage, very clean and fully stocked. Perfect for our family get away. We will be back!

We just spent 6 nights in Helen’s beautiful cottage. It was absolutely gorgeous. So cozy but also roomy enough to let our two older teenage daughters spread out and have their own individual space. It is beautifully decorated, beds are comfortable and we loved the location. Can’t wait to come back!

We stayed for 2 nights 3 days and we loved it. The cottage was very cozy and everything that we need was provided. The beds were so comfortable. Location was also excellent. We can’t wait to come back again. We will definitely recommend !

Beautiful private forested property . Walking distance to gorgeous Rathtrevor Park, mini golf, spa etc. On-site landscapers are super polite and keep the entire property meticulous.

Helen’s place is top notch. From the minute we walked in the door we were impressed. Clean, great location, well maintained, great communication. We stayed here with another couple and we each had plenty of our own space. Would stay here again!

Accommodation was lovely in a great area with easy access to the highway. We had a super short break on the island with an ideal place to relax after the days exploits!

Spent a week in this lovely cabin near Rathtrevor Beach . Excellent amenities for a vacation home. Comfortable beds, quiet with lovely deck at the back. We received complimentary wine and chocolate on arrival. Our hosts were very friendly and accommodating. Would recommend to anyone coming to Parksville area.

The rental was lovely!

Well located for travel to other parts of the island , but quiet enough to feel we were fully relaxed. Everything we needed or could have asked for was always at hand. Well done!

My family came into town for my fiancé's and my wedding. Not only was this the perfectly cozy home-away-from-home for them, but it was so close to the beach and Rathtrevor Park they went hiking almost every day before the wedding. Communicating with Helen was easy, and while there were no problems, she was reachable in a moment's notice to answer questions. Heck, a couple of my family members decided to extend their stay after the wedding! Will definitely rent again the next time we're in the Parksville area.

We live in Parksville and needed accommodations while our home was being renovated.. The owner was a joy to work with and so very accommodating. The home was stocked with great appliances and cookware. Absolutely no complaints. Highly recommend this getaway.
