Peaceful retreat situated between the ocean and a wooded park in Cowichan Bay.
Relax at this beautiful and tranquil adult-only getaway. Enjoy the beach and hiking trails which are each just a three-minute walk away, local wineries, the nearby historic Cowichan Bay fishing village with great restaurants and shops, and the quiet of this wooded 1-acre property. Situated between the ocean and Hof Park, Sea and Cedar Retreat offers everything you need to unwind. The clean, newly renovated house features two luxurious King-sized beds, a complete, well-stocked kitchen, a scenic balcony with a barbecue, a backyard patio, a private outdoor space surrounded by old-growth cedars and firs, and 2 smart TVs.
Beautiful views, clean, organized space with lots of options for space to sit in and well stocked with spices and coffee and tea. Very homey and luxurious.
Very nice property with convenient access to both a quiet beach along the bay and a (steep) trail for a walk amongst the tall trees.Itâs minutes away from Cowichan Bay village, and a convenient location for easy access to Duncan and the surrounding area.
A fabulous place! Donât hesitate. You wonât be disappointed. Lovely hosts. Beautiful decor, very comfy bed and pillows. A peaceful and serene location and still close to the marina, shops and restaurants.Looking forward to staying again next year.
We really enjoyed our visit here. The place was spotless, and the kitchen was well appointed. Love the balcony and the quick walk to the bay. Great communication from the owners.
The house was excellent, hosts very friendly & available for help & to answer questions. We loved the quietness of the surrounding area, the walking opportunities & the sights in general.
We stayed for two nights and had a wonderful stay. The hosts were so kind and generous and made us feel so at home. The house is well set up with everything we needed and the beach access made for a relaxing band beautiful stay. We will definitely be back!
This was a wonderful place to stay. It had everything we needed and was incredibly clean. The location was close enough to anything we needed and several prime tourist destinations, but far enough away that it was silent at night. We loved watching the bunnies in the morning and the bats at dusk. The nearby beach was a delight.
I would happily recommend this place to anyone looking.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sea and Cedars. The hosts are thoughtful and have truly thought of everything. The unit is beautiful and clean and, best of all, a short walk gets you on the beach. It was a perfect spot for us.
We were there for an anniversary weekend. Such a jewel! Excellent location, quiet, serene, everything you'd want for a relaxing get-away. There are some wonderful trails that we explored with beautiful scenery. Thank you Garry and Kathy for a wonderful stay.
Pristine cleanliness. Thoughtfully stocked with the extras you donât think to bring on vacation. Beds were exceptionally comfortable. We loved coming back to the quiet, scenic neighborhood after a busy day and enjoying the beautiful view from the deck.
This is a beautiful location it's quiet and serene. I loved waking up to the sounds of birds and having breakfast on the patio enjoying the beautiful view of the trees and surrounding nature. The accommodation had everything we needed and more, it was very clean. Kathy was very quick to respond to any questions we had and created a wonderful experience for us! We highly recommend staying here and would definitely come back if we wanna stay in the area again!
Kathy, the host, is like a helpful ray of sunshine. The home is beautifully decorated, super clean, and a short walk from the shore. The kitchen is well appointed with equipment to cook well. The bed was comfortable. High ceilings and many windows make the space very bright. Would be a good winter get away!
Apart from the fact that the hosts were the nicest and most caring I have ever met, the apartment is a dream. Flooded with light, perfectly and lovingly equipped and very clean. The location is wonderful: quiet and close to nature, right by the sea and forest, and at the same time close enough to reach, for example, Victoria or other destinations easily by car. I have found nothing like this nearby.
Das Haus war ein Traum, es lag super fĂŒr uns. Eine wunderschöne ruhige Lage von der man aber super ĂŒberall hin kam. Kathy und Gary waren super freundlich und zuvorkommend wir können sie und ihr HĂ€uschen wirklich weiter empfehlen wĂŒrden auf alle FĂ€lle wieder kommen
What a wonderful stay we had in this pristine home! You will find a beautifully decorated home with everything you need and more. Very quiet location, comfy beds, a short walk to the beach, and most importantly kind a caring hosts. :-). We arrived to the most delicious freshly baked cookies and a quick tour of the amenities. Our hosts even made sure that we knew about some of the biking hot spots and sent us some directions on where to go. So appreciated when you arrive somewhere new. We will be back! Thank you so very much,
Leslie, Stacey, Christa and John.
My husband, sister and I came to Vancouver Island looking for a place to retire to⊠Cowichen Bay is a slice of paradise and our stay with Kathy and Gary was perfect⊠from the homemade muffins to beautiful coastline. The neighborhood and neighbors could not have been nicer or more welcoming. This just might be our new home⊠at any rate, we will be back for another stay at the cottage⊠better than any 5 star hotel weâve ever been to. Thank you soooooo much to Kathy and Gary for their hospitality.
Newly retired, we are excited to share our carriage home and have endeavoured to make your stay as comfortable and relaxing as possible. As we live next door, on the other end of our 1.6 acre ocean front property, we will be available if needed, in person, or by phone, but will also fully respect your privacy.
Kingscote, the original founder of this area, apparently chose this particular property to settle on. Situated between old-growth trees, and the ocean, it provides a beautiful, serene setting to unwind. There are no street lights so it is a great place to star gaze on clear nights. It is also home to a variety of birds and other wildlife, and we regularly hear the call of the resident barred owl in the quiet of the evening.
