We had such a wonderful stay! The place is so spacious, beautiful and comfortable. Very well equipped. Not missing a thing. Communication with the host was excellent. Would definitely stay here again!
Had a fantastic time here, short walk to trails and beautiful coastal lookouts. The cabin is spacious and well equipped with everything you need. Rob was super helpful. Would absolutely stay here again!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Itâs a lovely home in a beautiful setting. The kitchen had everything we needed, beds were comfortable and the big deck was a great place to relax and bird watch! We would definitely come back!
Fantastic stay, everything was easy, made some epic dinners and family time. The location is perfect hiking and there is lots to discover. Got the wood stove dialed on and was great for the couple days of rain. Love the area and we enjoy this coast. Thanks a million for making it so easy.
Great friends trip. Place was clean, bright and spacious. The one bedroom was bright in the morning as the sky light doesnt have a a cover. We also didny realize how close/ surrounded by neighbors the cabin is. Great locatuoncto beaches and exploring. Had a great time!
My family and I had a great time at this secluded cabin. Beds were all comfortable and sheets were great quality, which is rare for a VRBO listing. The upstairs shared room was very hot, a couple more fans would have been helpful. Also a slight inconvenience is that you have to take your own garbage out and bring it home with you. The walk to the water is around 10 minutes, with some up/down in the trail that feels more than your average casual walk. The location was great for a trail walk/run, saw a pod of whales and the neighbours were friendly.as well.
Lovely, clean property with plenty of sleeping spaces for our family of 6 adults. Comfy beds and bedding though 2 of the beds (5 plus a dbl/sgl bunk available) are starting to sag a little in the middle. Quiet. A few minutes walk to Francis Peninsula with great views, moderate hike and sheltered rocky beach. Well appointed kitchen and large expandable table.
Within 30 mins of Sechelt and Egmont and 20 mins from Smuggler Cove. Great food when we didnât cook at the Grasshopper Pub a few minutes away.
Host was responsive and quickly arranged for a pick up of a forgotten item. Would stay there again.
Very quiet and clean house. Lots of storage through out the house. Very good kitchen appliances and lots of kitchen wares.
BBQ is a little bit old and needs replacement.
No blind and shade over two skylights which are on top of one bedroom.
Only two bathrooms for 10 people seems not enough.
The house was easy to find and fantastically located: quiet and remote with lots of modern amenities,awesome kitchen and eating space and a nice small lounge which meant parents and kids could easily socialize and play. Nice big spacious deck with chairs and bbq was also well used.
Luckily the kids are a little older else done things people may want to be aware of (E.g. No rails in deck) but a lot of this is self evident from the pictures. Rob was extremely responsive to the one message I sent,with a new bbq brush turning up the next day! Would definitely recommend and stay again.
My husband and I spent a week at this cabin along with our twenty-something sons and their partners, and all we had a great time.
I don't think the photos do justice to the cabin, as it was larger than we expected, roomy enough for 11 people to sleep, so we may bring other family members the next time we visit.
We loved that we were able to sit on the deck under the trees and read or play board games. The kids often went to the swimming cove, which is around a ten-minute walk away, and we all explored the nearby trails. I was able to walk the loop around the upper penisula every morning, and the views were amazing. A highlight of our trip was Baker Beach, which is a large, sandy beach only a 5-minute drive away from the cabin.
Although we're accustomed to taking our recycling with us when we stay at VRBO properties on the Sunshine Coast, disposing of our own garbage was a bit trickier, as we didn't initially realize we'd need to separate the compostable items.
Still, we had a wonderful stay overall and would highly recommend this hidden gem in the forest.
We were so comfortable and felt right at home in this cozy space.
So many great things to say about this property! A truly complete kitchen with excellent appliances and all you could need. Lots of space and very well laid out. The beds were comfy and there were many options and places to sleep. Really lovely location, and excellent hosts. We hope to stay here again!
We stayed at this Madeira Park Home with our kids and grandkids for a week. The house is well laid out and was equipped with everything we needed to enjoy our stay. The proximity to park trails is excellent.
Fantastic! We stayed for 5 days with our son and his 3 kids all under age four. The house was so tidy when we arrived, with lots of comfy beds to choose from. Plenty of room for us to cook together with lots of table room in the dining room. The patio deck was a great place to sit and watch the kids play in the yard. Close to the beach/trails. Rob was a terrific host and we all enjoyed our stay!
This property is absolutely wonderful!! It is located in the woods of Madeira Park and is so quaint, quiet and comfortable. Feels like home away from home. There were six ladies sharing the house and we all had our own bed and shared two bathrooms. It was perfect. The beds were extremely comfortable. The house is lovely inside and out and contained everything you would need in a vacation rental. We were sitting outside on the deck the first morning after we arrived and were welcomed by a doe and two fawn. There were several more sightings of deer and a herd of elk. Travel time from Horseshoe Bay to Langdale is a lovely short ferry ride. We kayaked at Pender Harbor for two mornings and hiked in the afternoon. One hike was to Smuggler Cove and the other to Francis Point. Both are spectacular hikes with amazing coastal views. There is a hiking trail extremely close to the property. At the end of the driveway, turn left and the trailhead is at the end of the road. Our host, Rob was extremely wonderful to deal with. He provided all the information we needed for a smooth check-in and check-out and was only a text message or phone call away should we have needed him. There is a binder in the house containing favorite hikes both on foot or bike and favorite restaurants in the area. A couple of the local establishments we visited where there was excellent food was The Grasshopper Pub and Aqui Es Mexico where they serve a very tasty mango margarita. The only regret is that our trip was too short as we only stayed three nights. We highly recommend this property and give it a 5-star rating.

As renters we are clean, quiet, and respectful.
As hosts we love to share our home with renters, but expect the same respect that we show to our hosts when we rent returned to us while staying in our house. We are always available for questions, and we will do our very best to always make your stay as comfortable as we can!
