The bed was comfortable and the cottage was well supplied with everything we needed and more. Although there was just 2 of us, there is plenty of space to accomodate a larger group comfortably. We appreciated the peacefulness of the location and the gated deck is a bonus for keeping dogs and children safe.

We love staying here. My kids absolutely loved “the cabin” and didn’t want to leave. Our evening paddle on the inlet was just perfect and I love how everything you could want is included. Also, it’s such a great location - a great spot to explore the whole area

A special gem of a place, so glad we found it. Excellent location close to everything and a lovely spot in woodland, so quiet and peaceful, a relaxing spot and special to be able to go kayaking in the back garden. Jackie and Ian were great hosts, welcoming and had everything we needed in the place. The banana bread left was a lovely welcome, thank you!

A really cute place in a beautiful location on the Sunshine Coast. The house was really well equipped, and the kayaks were a terrific bonus -- paddling on Secret Cove was great! Excellent, and very helpful communication from Ian before and during our stay. In short, a terrific experience. Highly recommended!

Hosts were really welcoming and accomodating. The property is so charming and cosy and we so appreciated the extra touches, especially the banana bread, jams and the many condiments, spices, teas etc. It's such a well equipped space and we especially enjoyed the access to the inlet and use of the canoe, kayaks and lifevests. Such a beautiful location. Thank you for your quick communication and for enabling us to have such a great family weekend x

Perfect place for a relaxing getaway and lots to explore

We wanted to a relaxing place to stay and also somewhere close to some beautiful spots to explore locally - we achieved both of these and had a really lovely holiday! We were able to do so much in the four days we were there.... canoeing in the inlet, reading/knitting by the wood stove, hiked smugglers cove, explored the sechelt farmers market , beaches in gibsons and a few local restaurants and so much more.
