Nice touches
A lovely location close enough to walk to town. Wonderful touches of fresh bread, eggs, milk etc. everything you need for breakfast. The eggs were hard boiled to take on our hikes. I loved falling asleep listening to the frogs in the nearby pond. Thank you. A wonderful spot.

Beautiful Salt Spring Island!
We were greeted with a wonderful loaf of bread from Francis Bakery, homemade jam, homemade orange juice, granola cereal, fresh eggs, butter, milk, tea, coffee and beautiful bouquet of flowers left on the kitchen table; now that’s amazing and thoughtful! Our unit was clean and quiet with your private terrace and bbq surrounded by the owners lovely backyard with fruit trees and vegetable gardens. Walking distance to Ganges, shops and restaurants. Our only drawback was the bed; regrettably not comfortable and very squeaky.

Good place for a couple of nights
This was our first visit to Salt Spring Island. The Island has a lot to offer! Pros: Rural setting within easy walking distance to town. Breakfast food and coffee were provided. Delicious fresh bread from the local bakery. Fresh flowers were a nice welcome gift. Bed was comfortable but as noted by another guest, the bed squeaks. The outdoor patio and grill were nice but the weather prevented us from using it. Cons: It would be helpful to have access to a coffee maker and a microwave. The washer and dryer are shared so we choose to do some hand laundry. We spent our time hiking Daffodil Point and Mount Erskine, dined out two evenings ( Moby’s Tavern and Auntie Pesto’s- made patio reservations for the latter) and enjoyed a drink at the Hastings House. We also visited some of the numerous art galleries, browsed at the Saturday Market, watched the busy sea planes and explored different parts of the Island. The Country Grocer was the best place to buy additional food items. For anyone who is concerned about getting to Victoria’s airport, we found the Web Cam at Fulford Harbor to be very helpful.

Nice spot, but not secluded
We thought this was going to be a secluded cottage property (based on listing description and pics), but it was actually part of a larger building/house which had other tenants staying. Due to the age of the building, it was very easy to hear other people talking, making noise, and lots of natural creaks and sounds which would startle our dog. Nice property, but definitely not reflective of the pictures or description.

A very enjoyable stay with delicious breakfasts. The location was good with respect to walking access to Ganges for provisions and restaurants. Being dog friendly was a must for us.
