Beautiful Area & Suite

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Ian and Jackie's lovely home. The location is wonderful for exploring (check out Smuggler Cove Marine Park and Big Tree Recreation Area). The suite was the best stocked place we have ever stayed in...we could tell that Ian and Jackie took great care to make sure our stay was comfortable and relaxing. Thank you both for a great time!

Quiet forest retreat

Quiet cottage located near the water. Got to kayak and canoe close by and spend time with family playing table games in the evening. Great place to rest and relax. Our dogs loved lounging around and going on some great walks.

Perfect place for a relaxing getaway and lots to explore

We wanted to a relaxing place to stay and also somewhere close to some beautiful spots to explore locally - we achieved both of these and had a really lovely holiday! We were able to do so much in the four days we were there.... canoeing in the inlet, reading/knitting by the wood stove, hiked smugglers cove, explored the sechelt farmers market , beaches in gibsons and a few local restaurants and so much more.
