Shack in the Woods

The cabin located in a vacation home strata, so there are several other cabins in this neighbourhood. Yet, it is private and surrounded by trees. The front deck is a wonderful space rain or shine. The cabin was very cozy and warm. Thank you for sharing your lovely place

Perfect peaceful getaway!

The cabin was incredibly private and peaceful! This was just what I needed to spend a few days recouping and relaxing. Slept like a rock in the super comfy bed, in fact when I got home it made me realize how many lights were on in my home disrupting my sleep and how I needed softer pillows, I now sleep better at home! Close to a dog friendly beach and all the attractions in the area!! Highly recommend! Karen was an absolute sweetheart, quick at responding and would message me on road updates as I stay between major storms.

Great deck to relax on

Comfortable and convenient stay to access Botanical Beach and hikes along the coast. Basic kitchen set up, for vacation meals. Slightly annoying there weren't enough coffee filters for the days we stayed, but other supplies were fine. Loved that the porch had a fence/gate, so our fur child could lie in the sun without being tied up. It was a pleasant rental and we'd do it again.

Port Renfrew

We were unable to check in on time as the owner was there working on his boat in the drive way. I don’t think the place was cleaned that well as there was a pile of sand in front on the slider to the master bedroom, there was garbage left behind at the fire pit, the toilet would not fill/flush, the shower was clogged and was extremely slow to drain as well there’s a big stain on one of the couch cushions. We made the best of our time but I had to pass on this message as I was not super excited about the state of the rental.

Nice place to stay

The bed was very comfortable. The place was cozy and quiet for the most part. A few things that could be improved: the coffee filter was not cleaned from the previous vacationer, the kitchen sink was leaking water and the shampoo and shower soap was empty. But otherwise it was a nice place to stay.

This was such a perfect getaway. It was such a well taken care of cabin with everything we needed! The internet was key at the end of a long day hiking. We will be back for sure!
