Could not get much better. Helped pull the family together for a break and a bit of a reset. Fireplace was perfect and appreciated that there was properly seasoned real firewood to burn! A really relaxing getaway with the perfect location. Thanks!

We had an amazing stay here! The location is stunning overlooking the ocean. Lots of outdoor seating to enjoy the views.
We also appreciated extra towels were available if needed.
Would definitely stay here again!

This is our 8th year in a row going to Saltspring Island. This place tops them all! Here you have luxurious waterfront property with stunning views and fresh ocean air. Indoors you will find absolutely everything you need! Definitely my first choice next year!

We have been visiting Saltspring for many yearsand always wanted to stay at this property. Finally got our chance when the dates worked and our expectations were exceeded - and we didn’t think that was possible.
Just a beautiful property to enjoy the sun and Vesuvius Beach

A beautiful, tranquil property near the shore of Salt Spring Island. The cottage was well-equipped and very charming. We saw eagles, ravens, rabbits, and deer daily.

We are all so fortunate this is property is a rentable vacation home to be shared with family, thank you Janet for making it a possibility !
This property was amazing and we were blessed with a heat wave during our stay! We celebrated our 8th wedding anniversary and our sons first birthday. Our expectations were met 110% and if I could give this experience 15/15 I would, 10 point scale doesn't do it justice. If you are unsure, stop thinking and book, it will not disappoint.
Looking at dates for 2024 to rebook!

We enjoyed our stay very much. We had deer walk through the front garden, watched the ferry dock at the port. Apart from the rain, we had a lovely time. We will be back.

Wonderful time in the cottage and a great view of Vesuvius Bay. Got to witness a group of sea lions thermoregulating themselves all day long as they slept and turned in circles near the shore. The double-sided fireplace was great for heating (in addition to the heat pump) and it warmed one of the bedrooms nicely and we could go to bed watching the embers burn out slowly. The kitchen was amazingly stocked and everything needed for cooking was found easily. It was a wonderful week and the hikes in the neighbourhood were quite plentiful.

This is a charmer. A well kept heritage cottage-home on water. A perfect place to relax and unwind. Beautifully appointed and comfortable in every way.

Like stepping back into a simpler time full of character. I immediately felt right at home. Room for my dog to play on the property and at the beach. If I wanted to sit and watch the sunset we could still play ball because I closed the gate to the beach. Friends visited and we sat in every seating arrangement. There are many! Some worked for 1 friend (bistro table) and some worked for 2 friends - propane fire table and comfie chairs. 4 sunsets were spectacular! Thank you for allowing me to share this experience with my dog.

Perfect country cottage decor. Wonderfully equipped kitchen; lots of pots, pans, dishes, glasses, and every gadget one could wish for. Ample supply of electrical outlets.

What a beautiful place to relax and get away from the hustle bustle of daily life. Although we live just an short ferry ride away, this magical place felt like a whole different world. Deck was fabulous even on those cool drizzly days and open deck was great for watching sunsets. Beach was quiet we enjoyed listening to the birds and watching the heron and seals make their daily appearances.
Kitchen was well stocked and beds were comfortable. All in all a delightful stay. Hope to be back again next year.
