Close to the beach and extremely quiet. It is like a home away from home. Nice cozy ambience. It was a cottage well equiped with all the basic necessities including good quality shampoos and handsoaps.

Little Piece of Paradise

This charming, clean, well maintained and comfortable cottage is the perfect home base for a Parksville area getaway. It is tucked back in a calm and quiet corner of a waterfront property and is only steps from the water. Ideal location with easy access to the many area attractions, but you’ll want to spend plenty of time right at the cottage!

Parksville Cottage near the sea.

Very nice cozy quiet cottage. Can’t beat the location! Beautiful beach and walking trails Was a bit disappointed on initial check in from what I had expected. As per the photos we felt the cottage was “on” the water, but rather is tucked in the back corner of the main property. Still very beautiful and private and would recommend as well as stay again.

Cozy

Perfect cabin for a cozy winter getaway. The gas fireplace was great. We had everything we needed. We didn’t realize this was a small cabin on the back of the lot and not right on the ocean. The pictures are deceiving. There is a small view from the cabin but it’s not steps away as the picture let’s on. Thankfully no one was home in the main house so we still felt we had privacy. Overall a great stay.

Great little getaway. Would have like a walkable little place to have coffee or breakfast. Other than that it was all good.

Sweet spot for a couple or single

I stayed here with my son and we had a wonderful stay, enjoying the beach and the provincial park next door. But we did not realize the pull-out bed was not included in the rental and when inquired about sheets was surprised the renter would not provide any for the pull-out bed. Luckily there were some sheets in the back bedroom that we were able to use. Note that the hot tub is also not for guests use, nor is the rowboat. Understandable. If it was just me or me and my wife I would stay here again.
