From the minute we arrived the cottage was wonderful. The cottage was warm on a cool day, the kitchen was stocked with all the essentials, the beds were very comfortable. When I experienced a challenge with the wifi the host immediately replied and it was on and running.The cottage was an ideal place for a two week rest and relax!
The host was amazing. The place was truly like our home for the duration. Would highly recommend this cottage.

Thx Joan. Glad you and your sisters enjoyed our Ocean Breeze Cottage for your stay on Salt Spring. Looking forward to hosting you again when you return.
Quiet, spotless, well appointed cottage. Great accomodation for 6 adults for a 3 night stay. Well situated to explore the island, less than 10 minutes to Ganges. Didn't disappoint. Entertaining hummingbird s!

Thx Paul. Glad you and your friends enjoyed the cottage and had a great stay with us at Ocean Breeze cottage. Looking forward to hosting you again.
Thank you for providing such a wonderful place to relax. Close to everything, yet far enough away to feel like we are out in the country. Mark ensured that everything was just so before we arrived.
Ocean Breeze is a very quiet and peaceful location. Loved listening to the song birds, and observing the deer and fawns. Great location and easy access to good hiking trails and Ganges for shopping, artists and browsing. Loved the Saturday market. The week "breezed" by and ended too soon.
Ocean Breeze cottage was perfect for our 3 adult, 4 night stay in November. Close to Ganges, close to Ruckle Park and close to the ferry! Perfect location, even the hummingbirds visit. Appreciate the modern conveniences including a roomy washroom with lovely shower and a larger screen TV for our downtime! Thanks, Mark!

Thx Barbera. Glad you enjoyed our "roomy" and updated cottage. Hope you can return again in the future.
The house was comfortable and clean. It was close enough to Ganges that we ended up eating out quite a bit, although the kitchen was well-stocked. The driveway is steep and there are steep stairs into the house and up to the bedrooms, so be sure your party is able to handle them. The host was very communicative, although we had no issues. Loved our stay!
The property was very clean and everything we needed. Very minor issue that we could not get live channels on tv to work. Unfortunately I did not bring a laptop with hdmi port. Hdmi cable was provided. Netflix account worked fine. Did not try prime. We were kept entertained by the constant buzzing and feeding of hummingbirds. Also saw three bunnies. Would recommend to stay at this location.

Glad you enjoyed your stay at our Ocean Breeze Cottage, and the wildlife! I will also pass your compliments on to my cleaners too.
Originally from England, I have lived on the west coast of Canada for over 30 years. Initially in Vancouver and since 2007 on Salt Spring Island. A kayaker, football (soccer) fanatic, father of two grown up daughters, I enjoy meeting guests and sharing our cottage with them so they can explore the wonderful island we call home.
Why they chose this property
While only 5 mins drive from Ganges (the main town) we are in a quiet, rural setting. You're much more likely to be visited by hummingbirds, deer, rabbits and other wildlife than people! But still within easy reach of restaurants, lakes, beaches, wineries, artists studios, the Saturday market and much more - all a short drive away.
What makes this property unique
The most common comments from our guests are - Great location - Clean, modern and comfortable - Quiet and peaceful - Love the local wildlife - We're coming back next year!
