This was our second stay at Andrea and Scott’s Parkside Cottage. We truly enjoy everything about our stay here. The cottage is well appointed and decorated, the bed is so comfortable and the location with access to Seal Bay Nature Park trails is incredible.

Lovely and peaceful cottage. Absolutely everything you needed was there and then some. We loved the indoor fireplace and outdoor sitting area and fire place and the walking trail adjacent to the property. Andrea was very gracious when we showed up 40 minutes early. If we are in the area again we would definitely stay.

The Parkside Cottage is just lovely and soooo peaceful. We loved staying there. We stayed there about 5 years ago and it hasn't changed a bit.It's very well appointed. We HIGHLY recommend it. Not far from either Courtenay or Comox.

All in all a great time was had by my wife and I. The location, next to Seal Bay Park, was just steps away and made for many a fun dog walk.Our hosts were extremely responsive which added to the experience.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cottage was very clean and bright, lots of windows. It had a lovely fenced garden for us to sit out and watch our dog. He loved it as much as we did.The hiking trail next to it was a bonus and so close.Great hosts, we hope we come again next summer. Thank you!

We had an amazing time staying at the Peaceful Parkside Cottage…everything was well stocked in the kitchen and bathroom! The beds were very comfortable and it was so quiet for a good nights sleep!

Stay here if you want a peaceful and relaxed experience. Stay here if you love nature just outside your doorstep and walking pathways through gorgeous Seal Bay Nature Park. Stay here if you want a supportive host AND privacy and space to enjoy your vacation. Andrea is fabulous to work with in booking and staying at her space. We never felt we were staying at someone's house...we loved our experience here. The cottage is so well equipped, she has thought of every last detail. The yard space is private, surrounded by trees with herb gardens and plenty of spaces on the porch and side yard to enjoy the outdoors. It was so easy to be in the space with out little dogs, we could sit outside with them with a coffee or cold drink and they could roam safely in the self-contained cottage yard. We loved everything about this place and would stay again and again.
