About this cottage rental

Escape to Whalehaven, a welcoming dog-friendly cottage on beautiful Texada Island, just minutes from Shelter Point Beach. Located in Gillies Bay, it’s a charming base to explore the many beaches and hiking trails. Built in 1941, with a wood stove for cosy evenings, two main floor bedrooms and an upstairs loft with additional sleeping, it’s a great place to enjoy time with friends or family, relax, slow down, and enjoy watching our peaceful deer leisurely graze the property. It has a full kitchen, washer, dryer, and comfortable living and dining spaces. Upstairs, a spacious open loft provides two twin beds for additional sleeping and an additional space to lounge, or work remotely.

Cottage has a well-equipped kitchen. The dining table seats six. Cooking is on a propane range, a single burner induction stove also available if preferred. Please note that the cottage does not have a dishwasher. Various teas, ground dark roast and decaf beans and sugar are all provided with a basic coffee maker, and french press

Bathroom has a tub with shower, sink and toilet, towels, hair dryer and basic toiletries.

Each of the two bedrooms downstairs have comfortable queen beds, and quality bedding. The upstairs loft contains two twin beds, and a queen sized futon which could convert into a bed if needed (bedding supplied). Whalehaven is a cottage located on our property, with our home located behind it. While you may occasionally see us coming and going, the cottage and its designated outdoor space are yours to enjoy, and we make a point of giving our guests plenty of privacy.

The upstairs loft is an open space with sloped ceilings and lower headroom in some areas, so taller guests will want to take a little care.

The cottage has High speed internet, with a smart TV in living room with Netflix. There is no cable television, but we do supply some books, puzzles and board games.
