World class out-door adventures await you:
- kayaking & paddle boarding

- hiking
- wildlife viewing
- golfing

If you’re planning on swimming it is a good idea to bring water shoes.

This property is pet friendly upon approval, however, please note the property is not fenced in.

Although Powell River is on the mainland, it will require a couple of ferry rides (Horseshoe Bay to Langdale and Earl's Cove to Saltery Bay) to get to it because it is not directly linked with the rest of the provincial road network.

By Air: Pacific Coastal Airways & Habour Air
By Car / Ferry: BC Ferries
By Seaplane: Habour Air

In the summer months it’s a good idea to make a ferry reservation from Horseshoe Bay to Langdale. Reservations are not available on the 2nd leg, from Earls Cove to Saltery Bay.

Enjoy your choice of the following streaming services:
Disney+
Prime
Netflix
Apple TV Plus

The water sport equipment on the property is for private use. We can recommend a number of local rental companies.

Whales, whales whales
Our family had an absolutely delightful experience during our stay at this VRBO property. The stunning ocean views from the deck were simply mesmerizing, and we felt incredibly fortunate to have witnessed humpback whales feeding and leaping out of the water on both days of our visit. The property itself, along with the house, was exceptionally well-appointed, ensuring our utmost comfort throughout our stay. The hosts were exceptionally gracious, further enhancing our overall enjoyment, and we are eagerly looking forward to the opportunity to book this VRBO again for future vacations.

Beautiful spot on the coast
A wonderful location, overlooking the ocean. The suite was spacious, artfully furnished and decorated, with a remarkably well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, and many thoughtful touches. We loved sitting out on the deck watching for whales, and hearing them late at night out on the water. The salt water hot tub on the beach was a perfect way to relax at the end of the day. The hosts Sean and Jenny were helpful and responsive. We’d definitely recommend a stay at this little gem on the coast.

Magical.
We booked three nights while attending my sister's wedding in Lund - where we grew up. This was the perfect little place for us as we came/went to enjoy wedding events. Highlights: Quiet & private with the lovely ocean breeze. We enjoyed coffee and champagne on the balcony. Those sunrises & sunsets are a dream. Our little pooches enjoyed their morning beach strolls... We also loved arriving to soft music playing & sparkling wine at our doorstep. The owners were available as needed. The property is beautifully furnished & the beds are cozy/comfy. Our six-and-a-half year old daughter was sad to depart - she loved her stay as well. Thank you, S&J.

About the host

Hosted by Sean Marshall

Host profile image
Originally from South Africa, we relocated to BC from ON in December 2019 and fell in love with the stunning Pacific Northwest, rich in beauty and culture. Powell River has a certain charm about it, and love that the sun shines so much here.

Why they chose this property

The view! So incredibly peaceful and rejuvenating. Plus the abundance of wildlife we’ve observed here is spectacular. Bears, otters, deers, eagles, blue herons, seals, sea lions, dolphins and whales.
