We loved our stay here! Would have liked to stay longer than our 4 nights Private, cozy and you couldnât be any closer to the ocean without floating in it. Thank Christine & Jock for the opportunity to experience the ocean life.
The hosts were amazing!! We broke down on our way and they offered to come pick us up. They greet you when you arrive and say goodbye when you leave. This was a very nice change from other places. The house is absolutely stunning, cozy, very clean and the views are outstanding!! Waking up in the morning to the sounds of Eagles and seals was dreamy . Our dog especially loved the water. The cabin has everything that you need and then anything that you may have forgotten! The views are outstanding! We will be back!! We highly recommend checking this place out !!
This cabin is absolutely amazing. The cabin is fairly new, very clean and decorated beautifully. It is equipped with everything you need, just bring your food/condiments and sit back and enjoy. The deck wraps around 2 sides of the cabin with a separate deck off the bedroom. Even the double French doors off the living/dining area and the bedroom are screened. The owners thought of everything when they built this cabin. It sits above the beach (small and large rocks) with the tide rolling in under the deck at times, so beautiful. Everywhere you stand in the cabin you can look out at the ocean. It is very private so you donât see anything but trees and the ocean. There are a couple rock islands way out and we could hear the sea lions, nice. There are so many seals swimming past us each day of our stay. There are a few stairs and a path to get down to the cabin but once you are there is is so private. There are well constructed rock stairs going down to the grass / picnic area and a few more to get to the water. Our hosts were so friendly and very accommodating. Such a lovely couple. They are there to help you with anything anytime or leave you completely on your own, your choice. We and our 2 little dogs thank them both so much for sharing their lovely cabin with us.
We had a lovely stay. Peaceful surroundings, gracious hosts. We thoroughly enjoyed the sea lions passing by for a visit and their chatterings. Looking forward to coming back.
If you love the sound of waves, the gentle roaring of sea lions, amazing hikes within easy driving distance and a wonderful couple of hosts,then this beautifully laid out cottage by the sea is for you!! I know we are looking forward to making this an annual holiday for us..it was wonderful.
Absolutely stunning location, cottage very well-outfitted, easy driving distance to Powell River and great walking and hiking. Lots of cormorants, mergansers, bald eagles, loons and grebes, not to mention harbor seals and barking sea lions. Hosts were awesome. We hope to come back!
This place was amazing. It was better than we had hoped it would be. Relaxing, Quiet, and beautiful .
Christine and Jock were top notch and full of good information when asked.
It was perfect for a couples get away and even had room for the kids
Our only regret is not booking it for a longer stay.
Incredible ocean side location in a quaint lovely cottage. Incredible views and lovely wood burning fireplace to keep the place cozy. Pro tip, give the hosts your arrival eta so they can warm the place up for arrival. Place had everything you need and a good base to explore Powell River.
I can't say enough about this oceanside cottage. It was perfect in every way and there is nothing I would change. My husband said it should get 100 stars! Both Jock and Christine were wonderful and always available if we needed anything. The cottage itself was spotless and has everything you would need for a holiday. We even brought our 3 fur babies and they were also welcomed with open arms. We would be back every month if it wasn't a 14 hour drive! Thank you Jock and Christine and we hope to be back in the future.
We've stayed in VRBO properties since 2007, and this seaside home was the best ever! Screened windows so that we could open up and enjoy the breeze all day. Heated bathroom floors convinced us to add that feature to our own house. Other upscale features which we didn't even need to use. And a chorus of sea lions on a nearby island helped us truly relax during our entire stay. We hope to be back regularly!
The best, host set the fire each night, carried our luggage, answered any questions we had. It was very clean and the setting was the best. We were entrained by sea lions, seals, otters and loons
Ein wunderbarer Ort zum WohlfĂŒhlen. Das Meer DIREKT vor der TĂŒr, nachts hört man die Wellen. Seehunde schwimmen vorbei und wenn man GlĂŒck hat auch Wale. Das HĂ€uschen ist bestens ausgestattet und sehr gemĂŒtlich. Die EigentĂŒmer sind auch sehr nett und am liebsten wĂŒrde ich gleich wieder umkehren.
Great relaxing stay, a little piece of heaven right on the ocean , loved that it was dog friendly . Would recommend this for a family or just an adult's get-a-way. Great location off the main Hwy close to the Sunshine Coast trail . John and Christine were excellent hosts ! See you next year !
Property was beautiful . Clean and tastfully decorated. Had everything we needed . Water was right at our deck . We were lulled to sleep by the waves. We will most
certainly be back again. .Hosts were lovely. Thankyou B&B
My daughter and I (and her pooch) spent a fabulous long weekend at Jock and Christineâs beach house. The house itself is very comfortable, every detail for the guestâs comfort and convenience has been thought through. The property and views are second to none, so whether you curl up by the fire or go exploring you wonât be disappointed. Jock and Christine were there to greet us and had the cabin warmed up and cozy for us, and were very responsive throughout. Canât wait to go back!
We stayed here for 5 nights over the new year.
Saw humpbacks, sea lions, seals and otters from the deck.
A beautiful location about 20 minutes from Powell River.
Plenty of hiking trails nearby.
We had a wonderful stay at this cozy cabin. The views were stunning and the cabin was so beautifully decorated and made for such a relaxing experience. The hosts were fantastic and very helpful. The area is very private and beautiful with a peaceful setting. Absolutely loved our stay here.
Everything about our stay was excellent: swimming in the ocean, relaxing at the cottage, watching the seals and sunsets. It is a magical place. The hosts were lovely and very helpful. We've already booked our next stay.
We purchased the above property with an old cabin on the beach as a getaway from the pressures of city life in Vancouver. This quiet rural area known as 'Stillwater' twenty kilometers, south of Powell River became our family's place of tranquility and restoration. When we both retired in 2001 we moved from Vancouver to commence building our retirement home. A few years later we decided to renovate the 'old cabin' and recently completed our eco-friendly 'Beach House' which we now offer for your enjoyment.
We appreciate the opportunity to conserve energy whilst not compromising our appreciation of comfort and beauty. To live off the grid most of the time thus assisting in our overall hope to minimize our ecological footprints.
