Amazing place to stay and walk along the beach and wind down on the patio. Stunning views and Will definitely be booking here again when I’m back in the area.
The photos on line do not do justice for how beautiful, this this. We loved how quiet the neighbourhood was. Thank you … we would definitely stay there again.
It was a lovely cozy spot on a rainy weekend. All the comforts of home. Hosts were kind and considerate. Having my dog stay with us was wonderful. It was great to roam along the beach.
Beautiful surroundings, nice neighbors, calm area (right at the coast) and an extremely helpful host. Would book again for sure!

Don and Sylvia’s place is absolutely beautiful—fully equipped, spotless, and incredibly cozy. We had a wonderful stay, and it was so peaceful being right by the ocean. They were warm, welcoming hosts, and we truly appreciated their hospitality. Thank you—we hope to return someday!
The place was impeccable and the contact with Sylvia was excellent. The dog loved the walk to the beach and exploration. Thank you so much and we will return!
We had a marvellous stay - so much so that we stayed an extra day! Hosts were so accommodating to us and our dogs. Facilities are beautiful. Fully stocked with everything you need for a vacation. We came from Campbell River for a few days to visit friends and every single place was close-by! Will definitely highly recommend and will stay again!
Couldn't have asked for a better weekend. Thank you to Sylvia and Don for the space. Warm floors and great coffee alone would make this a great stay, but add to that ocean view, well stocked kitchen and even bowls for the dog. Thank you and hope we get to visit Powell River again.
Quiet and peaceful. The scenery from the rocky beach was gorgeous. It was lovely to sit on the logs and just take it all in.
The cottage had everything we needed. Hosts Don & Sylvia very friendly and helpful.
From arrival to departure our stay at this beautiful ocean view cottage was top shelf!
All the little extras including coffee bar, plush towels and comfy beds made our stay in Powell River even that much more enjoyable.
Thank you Sylvia & Don
Hope to be back.
Go Kings!
Both of us truly loved watching the eagles and ravens playing together every morning, the seals swimming by and just everything about the cottage and location.
What a wonderful place to stay. It was clean and had everything you needed to have a comfortable time. Sat at the table, looking out over the water, watching the dolphins and walked down to the beach with Eagles soaring over our heads. You couldn’t ask for a more beautiful spot. The cottage was so well stocked and so well cared for. Our family really enjoyed our time. Highly recommended
Our hosts, Don and Sylvia were so gracious and down to earth we felt we knew them for a very long time , not just 5 days. The cottage was charming, homey and had everything one could possibly ask for. The beach front location awesome. We felt as one with nature high in the tree tops with eagles and other birds. Can't say enough good things about our wonderful getaway. Have already made arrangements to come back in the fall.
This is a lovely cottage with lots of amenities including very convenient laundry facilities. It was too cold, rainy and windy to really enjoy the waterfront location but would like to return in nicer weather. Our only problem was getting the TV to work properly but Sylvia tried her best to help with that.
We stay one week at Sylvias Cottage. We have a relaxed time. Eveything was as described and shown on the photos. Our expectation was satisfied. We enjoy the deck and the opportunity to go down to the beach. Sylvia was available if required. We would like to come back.

It was a lovely place with a nice balance of antiques and new things, like the bathrooms. And the view, spectacular.
We had a wonderful stay. The cottage was a very nice place with a beauitful view of the water. Bonus that it is dog friendly and the patio has a gate to keep the dogs enclosed. Would stay again
