Cortes Beachfront Hjem w / Hot Tub & Kajak den 5. Skovbevoksede Acres

Den Wilcox Lodge er en fredfyldt oase beliggende på 5 træbevoksede acres på bredden af ​​Gorge Havn, Cortes Island, anses af mange for at være den bedste af de stedsegrønne Øer. Disse øer er placeret på den berømte 'indenfor passage «anvendes af skibe til og fra Alaska og er beskyttet mod vinteren Pacific storme af Vancouver Island, en af ​​de største og mest interessante øer i den nordlige halvkugle. Cortes Island er tjent med regulær færgeforbindelse fra Campbell River. Campbell River på den østlige side af Vancouver Island har planlagt flyselskab service fra Vancouver (værtsby til Vinter-OL 2010), og charter tjeneste direkte til Gorge Havn er tilgængelig fra Seattle, Victoria, Vancouver og Campbell River.

Cortes Island er i "regn skygge 'af Vancouver Island og har langt mindre nedbør end Victoria eller Vancouver. Vejret er normalt varmt og solrigt med kølige aftener maj til oktober.

The Lodge er beliggende lige over stranden med en panoramisk udsigt over havnen og en visning gennem havneløbet i Vancouver Island bjerge i det fjerne. Wildlife bugner. Du kan se skaldet ørne og mange sorter af fugle, hjorte ned ved stranden eller ud køkkenvinduet, søløver, sæler eller en otter legende svømning ved, mink, og måske delfiner eller en hval på færgen ride over.

Med næsten 1.500 sq. Ft af boligareal, dette rustikke Lodge har alle moderne bekvemmeligheder, en fuld veludstyret køkken, komfortable og rummelige stue / spiseplads, der åbner på en stor 750+ sq. Ft. L-formet dæk med udsigt over strand og havn. Hot tub på dækket. 2 chaiselonger gøre for dovne solbadning / læsning eftermiddage på dækket og cafe & spiseborde er et perfekt sted for udendørs spisning. Nogen for østers på grill ??? Trapper fra dækket giver adgang til stranden over en kort men ujævn vej. Kajak til rådighed til gæst brug. The Lodge sover 6: 2 i den nedre loft (California King kane seng med McCroskey fast madras & kasse foråret), 4 i den øvre loft (dobbeltseng og trille seng med 2 twin madrasser). The Lodge er et 'A' ramme med en åben grundplan, er den øvre loft tilgås gennem den nedre loft og begge lofts er delvist åbent til de vigtigste boligareal (så ingen soveværelse privatlivets fred). Badeværelset har en håndvask, toilet, bruser og en vaskemaskine (tørre dit tøj udenfor på tøj linje, vil de lugter så frisk og godt); der er også et toilet. Der er rigelig parkering til flere biler. Der er en telefonlinje telefon til lokale opkald og begrænset lang distance, WiFi internet, 32 'Sony fladskærms-tv m / dvd-afspiller i den nederste loft (ingen tv-kanaler, kabel eller satellit, kun til dvd'er), cd-afspiller og record player w / optagelse samling kun for gamle tider skyld. Vi har også en samling af bøger, nogle af de lokale forfattere, og nogle brætspil for chancen regnvejrsdag. Du er velkommen til at tilføje en shell eller to til vores montre sofabord i den øvre loft eller en strand kæmning fund til vores post måde strand combers væg. Du vil også finde en kajak under huset, som du kan bruge under dit ophold ... Vigtigste er at slappe af, have det sjovt, nyde de smukke naturlige omgivelser ...

Bemærk dette er en rustik strand hus ...... ikke en moderne by hjem transporteres til vandkanten .... vi løbende opgradering af ejendommen, men ikke alt er 'all perfekte "... selv om vi holde gør forbedringer hvert år .

Bemærk også, at private indkørsel er en smule ru og ujævn i steder. Du skal køre meget langsomt og omhyggeligt for at undgå at skrabe bunden af ​​bilen på indkørsel eller buske langs siden af ​​indkørslen.

Lodge er ikke så fjernt som det lyder, en nabos sommerhus er meget tæt på, og kan ses fra dæk & fra den nederste loft soveværelse karnap, der er en lille hytte i skoven op ikke synlig fra hovedhuset vejen , andre er inden for gåafstand, som er Gorge Marina med restaurant, lille købmand, vaskeri, benzin, og en ny smuk udendørs swimmingpool og boblebad med udsigt over havnen / marina og åbent for offentligheden. Lodge er 2 1/2 miles fra downtown Whaletown med offentlige dock, posthus, kirke og mini-bibliotek.

Når du bliver træt af at hænge ud omkring Lodge, mange udendørs rekreative muligheder vrimler: fiskeri, sejlads, sejlads, kajak, vandreture, cykling, svømning på Marina poolen eller Haag Sø, Hollyhock retreat center kurser, andre strande til at udforske, rullebræt park ...

I don't want to tell you how good it really was!

The place is even better than advertised. It's location is close to many great amenities on Cortes, including fairly close to the ferry, the grocery and a nice, dockside restaurant. Sue was a pleasure to work with from beginning to end, always highly responsive. Really, this place is so great I'd like to keep it a secret so we can easily book for years to come. Can't wait to come back!

One of our best vacations!

My family had one of the best vacations at Wilcox lodge. The cabin was clean, well stocked and the deck with the amazing views and hot tub were such a bonus. I would most definitely recommend this place to my friends and family. And they allowed our beloved puppy to join us!

Relaxing Spring Break with the Kids at the Beach

We had such a wonderful time at the cabin. So relaxing and fun and a perfect spring break. Enjoyed beach walks & play, exploring Gorge Harbour in our new inflatable boat, clam digging at Mansons, and doing some maintenance work around the place for my cousin Sue. The kids loved the Easter egg hunt & pancake breakfast with tug of war and other kids games. Coming back again next year. Kristy VN

A hidden gem amongst the island wilderness!

Our stay at the Wilcox Lodge was nothing short of magical. It's the kind of place where you feel totally one with nature. The huge deck offers amazing views of the surrounding ocean and the opportunity to watch all kinds of wildlife pass by. The sunsets were incredible!! The kayaks were so much fun to take out and to explore the coastline. A definite must if you're visiting. The spacious layout of the cabin allows for a perfect area for gatherings and lots of conversation pieces. We loved looking at all the eclectic decor! The free standing fireplace was a big hit with us as we had some rain one day and it made for a cozy evening curled up with a book and some tea. Sue looked after us so well and was available to answer any questions we had. If you're looking to disconnect from the hustle and bustle and find some serenity, this is the place to do so!! A little slice of heaven that you never want to leave. We feel lucky to have visited. Thanks Sue!!

Rustic

Having rented many cottages, apartments and homes worldwide, I feel I have a good grip on value for accommodation. This property is overpriced. The place was not particularly clean, cobwebs and dust throughout. The bedding was flannel (strange choice for the summer) and the towels were all mismatched and all we could find were hand towels in a chest. There are personal items in all the drawers, we kept our clothes in our suitcases. The beds were fairly comfortable. This property could be 5 star with just a little effort. The view is lovely.

The location and setting couldn't be beat, absolutely beautiful!

It's clear the cottage and island are both loved by the owner, this was reflected through the books both personal and historical that filled the book case. The cottage has all the necessities, kayak was a nice bonus, and the welcome gift of coffee and wine was a great surprise. We really appreciated being able to bring our dog and so did he. We would stay here again.

Beautiful cabin, wonderful views

What an amazing location for a cabin. The cabin is spacious and has everything that you need, a bit dated but this adds to the charm. Views from the hot tub are amazing and being able to Kayak to dinner at the marina a definite plus. We had a great time with 2 adults and 2 children. Sue was very responsive to my emails and phone call.

We love Sue's place so much! It is our 3rd time there! Very comfortable for ultimate relaxation. The harbour is full of surprises to watch from seals and birds to Orca's chasing in Seals! They hid under the Oyster rafts! Even saw a humpback whale on the ferry! What a magical place!

In a word - the Wilcox Lodge is - PARADISE !!

This is our second year in a row visiting Cortes Island and would not stay anywhere but the Wilcox Lodge. We are a family of 6 and the cabin has plenty of space for everyone ! The balcony is huge and has a fantastic view of the harbour - walk down the stairs right onto the beach - use the cabins kayaks and go explore the waters . Relax in the hot tub. There are lots of trails on Cortes for hikers and wonderful beaches - Hanks Beach, the beach at Hollyhock, Mansons Landing and Lagoon, Hague Lake and our favorite - Smelt Bay. As there are a couple of stores on the Island -but the selection is limited and quite expensive - I do recommend bringing your groceries with you. The cabin has a large fridge as well as a chest freezer. Sue is great to deal with - she responds to emails quickly and if any issues arise during your stay - there is a phone to call her and she will address them . The people on the island are very friendly - it is a quiet, serene and peaceful island - we will definitely be back next summer for our 3rd year in a row ;)

Heavenly peace and quiet

The cabin is tucked away in the woods with a deck that opens onto the bay. Hands down, it is the most peaceful and relaxing place I've stayed. With all windows open you feel as though you are outside even when you are inside. The moonlight view of the bay from the bed at night can't be beat. There is ample and comfortable sleeping for a family with multiple kids. Cortes is a nature-lover's paradise. My 2 young children, husband and I enjoyed shell seeking, berry-picking, swimming in the ocean and lake, and hiking. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to get away from it all and find peace in nature.

Spectacular Gorge Harbor retreat

The setting of this cabin is incomparable. A beautiful large, sunny deck, with hot tub, overlooks the comings and goings of the harbor. The cabin itself is well equipped with tons of kitchen accessories and ample bedding and towels. A small deep freeze is handy for the fishers in the family. On-site kayaks are: 1 single and 1 double (however, there was only 1 paddle available for both)...it's fun to kayak over to the marina store, shop, rent videos and even partake in morning yoga at the resort! Lots of great kayaking at your doorstep in beautiful clear, calm waters. Easy access to bike trails, too, if that's your thing. We biked to Carrington Bay as well as the new Whaletown Commons, both starting from "home". We loved the master bedroom view of the harbor and didn't mind the curtain which acts as the separator to the higher loft bedroom. All beds are super comfy! If you like somewhat rustic cabins, no wifi, relaxing on decks while watching seals, boats and seaplanes, and having a central "base", then you will love Wilcox 1!

The views from Wilcox 1 are spectacular!

We have visited a few rental properties on Cortes and while this property needs more upgrading, it is a very comfortable spot with spectacular views of the harbour from the deck. This ultra quiet location has everything you need for a restful retreat from the hustle and bustle. We always enjoy the various markets on the island and the fun community activities as well the museums. We have recommended that the kayak launch on Wilcox 1 be worked on as it is currently difficult; therefore, until that is fixed you may wish to safely launch at the Gorge Harbour Marina, Hague Lake or a zillion other places. Wilcox 1 is a very clean property with the owners very conscientious about continually upgrading the property so that we can all have a grand holiday. Leave your cell phone, ipad and laptop at home! Get unplugged and return home refreshed. Wilcox 1 is a great place to meditate and reconnect with our Godself. I wish there were restaurants on Cortes that are vegan friendly.

Wilcox Cabin on Cortez Island, B.C.

Cute, roomy, funky cabin with a wonderful view of Gorge Harbour. Watch the boats to and from the Marina and hear no Marina noise :) watch the birds and seals, at low tide search the beach for sea creatures. LOVED every minute of it and will be back next summer. Cortez is a lovely peaceful and relaxing island. Really enjoyed the quiet and serenity.:)

The cabin is a little piece of paradise.

The cabin is located right on the water, perfect for collecting the oysters that you will have for dinner. From opening the door upon arrival, you feel the history and love that is in this family home. The mementoes and knick knacks that have been collected over time surround you in the unique structure of the cabin. The windows open to views that make you feel as if you are sleeping in a tree house with a view to the ocean. The island itself is a welcoming artsy place to spend time, make sure you attend the Sat market for local crafts and food. Great beaches to wonder and collect shells or have that romantic picnic. Or spend the day on the cabins deck and relax and read a book and have a dip in the hot tub.

Relaxing and Private Cabin on the Water

We bid on a one week stay on Cortes Island at the SRHS ArtQuest auction in 2013. Our winning bid meant both support for a great program and a wonderful vacation for us. My wife and I spent a tranquil and relaxing week at the Wilcox Lodge on Cortes Island. The house has a cozy cabin feel, especially when reading by the woodstove at night. The open floor plan makes it feel even larger than it is. There was just the two of us, so the lack of bedroom privacy was not an issue. It is something to consider if staying with more people, could be comfortable for a family. There is plenty of space to spread out, but not many walls. The house has lots of windows with views of the harbor. There is one neighbor nearby, yet the house feels completely private. The large deck and hot tub are great for relaxing, watching the tide come in and out, or enjoying a meal. We were there in June and had beautiful weather most days, just a little drizzle here and there. We saw eagles on the beach and in the trees, from the deck. The island is beautiful and the residents were all very friendly. We mostly cooked/grilled our own meals, but did have a wonderful dinner at The Cove restaurant in Squirrel Cove. For shopping on Cortes, there is a lot squeezed into the Co-op store and bakery, as well the other markets. That said if we go again we would likely stock- up more in Campbell River or on Quadra (more selection and better prices). There is a great little museum, in Manson’s Landing, with very friendly folks who have great tips on how to enjoy Cortes. We did a lot of hiking and beach walking. Kw’as Park is beautiful and the views from Green Mountain are spectacular. The ferry ride was part of the adventure too, and some sightseeing on Quadra Island is worth making time for.

Exactly the vacation I needed.

The cabin was rustic, but spacious and well laid out. We spent 5 days and it was the most relaxing trip I have taken in a long time. The view was amazing, and while the other cabins were close it wasn't intrusive. The king sized bed was unbelievably comfortable, and the island was dead quiet at night. I never slept so soundly. I would go again without hesitation.

Family Reunion

My family LOVED staying at this very spacious split level with a pretty beachfront, and windows with beautiful views in all directions. My husband and son used the hot tub every night, talking and watching the moon shine on the water. My sister and I had coffee every morning on the deck and enjoyed seeing the shore birds fishing for breakfast. There was room for us to spread out and have some time to ourselves or to be together. We had a wonderful, stress reducing and happy time at this lovely home on Cortes Island.

Beachfront paradise

Sue's holiday holiday home is a wonderfully quirky house in an idyllic setting on Cortes Island. The property is approached via a rough track that leads you through deeply shaded woods - don't be put off by the bumpy track, the tennant's shack, the outside drop toilet or the 'native' garden, the view and peace is well worth the effort. The house was clean and well appointed if a little tired - the setting over-shadows this and we enjoyed a wonderfully relaxing few days in late July and enjoyed good weather, clear night skies, a full moon and plenty of wildlife - all magical memories that we will cherish. We would have loved to have stopped longer. Neighbouring marina / campsite good for 'crashing' the evening entertainment with camp store on-site for basics. Use of BBQ, vinyl record collection & player, hot-tub & kayaks added to the fun. Sue was very helpful and responded quickly to our queries. I'd recommend this property for those looking for something different.

Fantastic Visit to the Island

We had such a fantastic time at the Lodge! We completely relaxed and enjoyed the peaceful setting. We spent almost every waking moment out on the huge deck basking in the sunshine, enjoying the phenomenal view and even star gazing. The kayaks were a fun bonus (seal watching!) and made it so easy to zip down to the Marina store for groceries and a late afternoon ice cream! The owner was super helpful and really quick to reply to our questions on arrival. We look forward to going back again!

WILL DREAM OF CORTES ISLAND

My husband, daughter and I visited Cortes Island for the first time in August hoping to find an island that was a bit remote, quiet, laid back and scenic. Happily we found all of the above. Cortes is the perfect place to get away from the hub bub. After spending some time searching for the perfect place to stay, we settled on Wilcox Lodge as we were looking for a place with loads of character that felt more funky and charming as opposed to modern and luxe. Staying here felt like we staying at a well-loved cabin where everywhere we looked was a memento of years spent exploring this coastline. Our main goal while on Cortes was to find, cook and eat lots of oysters, clams and other seafood and we achieved this goal. The kitchen was fully stocked and we weren't wanting for any implement or tool and the gas grill was in good working order. As with any A-frame style house, the different levels are pretty "open." The second bedroom is only divided by a curtain that can be closed, but for us this was no problem. The main bedroom has a huge bed that looks out over the harbour and at night the view of the moon rising over the water was spectacular. Our favorite part of the house was the deck where we spent many hours just watching the boats and the kayaks coming in and out of the harbour. It was a perfect vantage point. We also loved exploring the rocky beach at low tide. Hanging out in the living room by the fire doing puzzles and listening to old albums was another favorite activity. Sue, the owner of Wilcox Lodge, was wonderful to work with and so quick to respond to every question and request. We couldn't have asked for a better property owner. All-in-all a great experience and look forward to visiting Wilcox Lodge again soon!

Beautiful spot

My husband and I stayed at Wilcox Lodge for a week. The house was quiet and peaceful. We walked on the beach, kayaked, found hundreds of brilliant purple starfish, and sat with the deer - all without leaving the property! We so enjoyed our stay - Cortes is a wonderful spot - serene and lovely. I highly recommend it. And Wilcox Lodge is charming and welcoming. We lit a fire in the fireplace as it was cool in the evenings and were warm and cozy. Full moon over the Gorge Harbor inlet was romantic. Dinners on the deck were wonderful. I can't wait until we return! Thank you for a great vacation.

My parents left this fabulous summer beachfront home to me and my sister Gina. I first came here when my eldest son was 5 years old and had great fun boating, beach combing, swimming, collecting clams and oysters off the beach (and eating them), fishing (my son started fishing for 'coddies' in the harbour and later caught his first salmon here). I remember the year my dear old dad won the local 'salmon derby' for biggest catch of the day, another fishing expedition when he hooked a bird that was fishing too (ever try to get a live bird off your fish hook?), also the time my son boiled his baby shark to try and extract the shark's teeth only to find they had boiled away into nothing, many potluck dinners and parties with the locals, dinners at Hollyhock and visiting their beautiful organic garden, hikes, picking apples out of abandoned orchards and blackberries for delicious pie making (and eating, you're catching on to a key theme here I hope!). Have come back to Cortes many summers, the natural beauty here is stunning, gorgeous beach, water and mountain views from every part of the island, I could go on and on.... The ferry rides are fun, last time we saw a pod of dolphins right in front of us... I've also traveled by sea plane which is a great adventure itself...I live in Northern California with Sparkie the killer toy poodle (pictured here), my husband Ivan and two sons.

Derfor valgte værten dette overnatningssted

My parents discovered the 'hidden gem' called Gorge Harbour, Cortes Island in one of their long summer sailing expeditions in this region. They fell in love at first site, got off the sailboat, found a realtor, the rest is history. The Lodge had been built by a glazier who used some interesting old windows in the Lodge that he salvaged from other houses where he was replacing the old w/the new; his most interesting glass work is some 'L' shaped windows where the two pieces of glass are glazed together w/o frames between to maximize the Gorgeous views... The Lodge still needed a lot of work and my parents spent the next several summers laboring away to make it the beautiful serene retreat that we now invite you to come enjoy. My Dad loved the locals, the great salmon fishing, the plentiful oysters and clams on the beachfront, gardening and partying. My mom loves the view of the Gorge Harbour entrance with boats coming and going, beach combing to find interesting artsy driftwood pieces (some decorate the lodge still), sunbathing on the deck and waking up to more of the Gorgeous views.

My absolute favorite thing about the Wilcox Lodge is THE AIR SMELLS SWEET, do you big city dwellers even know what I'm talking about??? I myself forget how great air can smell when I'm stuck in the big city pollution...on Cortes the pace is slower, the people friendly, the natural beauty is stunning, great beach, water, snow-capped mountain and forest views in every direction, hard for me to pick a favorite view they are all so spectacular. The local seafood is great, there are farm stands and a coop store where you can buy organic foods. There are some excellent restaurants for when you don't feel like cooking. Food truck right on Whaletown Rd for fast, cheap and good tacos. The Hollyhock retreat offers a variety of interesting workshops and you don't have to stay there to enjoy their fabulous dinners and organic gardens. Other island activities include swimming at Hague Lake, kayaking and sailing excursions, fishing, and more. Google and you will find lots of info. A number of famous people have chosen Cortes Island as a summer retreat and for good reason, yet it is not highly touristy or over-commercialized. Our Lodge has a great big expansive deck, I could be happy just hanging out on the deck all day. I love sleeping in the trundle bed, waking up and looking out at the water one direction and the forest the other direction. Mostly I enjoy spending time with family and friends in our own private little piece of paradise. I hope you will come, enjoy and create your own fabulous Cortes memories.
