We had a fantastic stay on Pender Island. The location was very convenient for the grocery store and several restaurants / liquor store etc. The view from the living room was idyllic and it just made the trip so much more special. We received a notification that the property was ready for occupancy earlier than planned and this was very welcome as we had 2 infants who were due to have a nap and it was really nice to have the ability to drive straight from the ferry to the property.

Our family had a wonderful stay at the Rawlings Retreat! The space is wonderful -- clean, spacious, and a great mix of original mid-century modern features and updated spaces. Such a great place to stay! We spent so much of our time on the deck -- such an amazing view! This was a great place to stay while enjoying Pender, warmly recommended. :)

This vacation rental was even better than the photos and so very comfortable and welcoming! It has clearly been recently updated with tasteful and fitting renovations but it also maintains everything possible from the past to make it feels like a true home away from home. The view from almost every room was amazing and deck was so comfortable for all times of day!

Disc Golf Weekend

Fantastic spot to stay on pender island, and perfect for families or groups alike. A tonne of games provided, beautiful deck, properly stocked kitchen ie tupperware to store you cooked food, oil and vinegar for cooking salt and pepper etc. We really enjoyed our stay on the property overall and will be booking again in the future!

Truly special

What a wonderful getaway for families! It is in an excellent location, near to lots of activities but also on a secluded piece of property. The house itself is very well-maintained with new appliances, cute decor and plenty of little touches that make it feel like home. We recommend it highly especially for families with kids. We hope to come back before too long!

Fantastic getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay at the Rawling’s Retreat. Small but very thoughtful touches made our stay even more enjoyable - condiments and basic kitchen ingredients already in fridge/cupboards, cozy warm deck blankets, filled propane heater and BBQ. Highly recommend!

Very nice spot on Pender Island

The property fit our needs perfectly. We are a family with two adult kids and their partners that appreciated the available space over two floors plus the large comfy beds in the 3 bedrooms. Although the Island is nice and quiet like we wanted, the property is also close to a grocery (and liquor) store plus a few other shops and is walking distance from a cidery and vineyard. It is also on a cove and ideal for a quick dip. A wonderful and relaxing time. Would definitely stay again and recommend to others.

nice to be back

As we liked our stay in summer 2023 very much, we came back for another stay in June, 2025. Things were as good as last time. My only suggestion for improvement is to add some USB ports to help people charge their phones/tablets/laptops in the bed room and near the dinner table.

Spacious Waterfront House on North Pender Island

This gorgeous house is most definitely a "retreat". Beautiful views of the ocean and deer in the front yard every day. The house was exceptionally clean and well stocked, including a coffee pot, along with a Keurig. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds were very comfortable. We had an absolutely amazing time celebrating my wife's 50th birthday.

Great getaway, well cared for home

This property is on a lovely quiet part of Pender Island that is easy to access and not far from all things to do on the island. What stood out the most is the home is well cared for, stocked with quality items and you get the impression that the owners want you to have a good experience all around. Beds were comfortable, home was warm and had everything we needed. Would come back again!

This property was remarkable in many ways. The house itself was clean and very well organized. The view was postcard perfect. There was obvious care and attention to providing all the miscellaneous bits and bobs that any guest may need. Would stay again in a heart beat!

Rawlings Retreat

Absolutely love this cozy home! Great location, lovely decor, you want for nothing. Very well stocked. Quiet, serene, restful place. Needed the solitude and got it. There are neighbours, so not completely isolated. I will stay here again!! Thank you to the Rawlings Family. Your home made our stay there fabulous. We biker from the home, all over Pender.

Beautiful Peaceful Island and Lovely Home

It is beautiful and peaceful on Pender. The house had everything we needed and you could tell they really tried to make it comfortable for guest (nice beds and linens, thoughtful hooks for items, good labeling of switches, etc.). We had excellent Wi-Fi. They gave us detailed instructions on how to reach the island—which was vital because we were new to ferry-planning! We highly recommend this property. We kayaked (seals! Otters! Sea stars!) and hiked and went to the winery and cidery. We enjoyed the local restaurants, and the grocery store is impressive.
