Loved it and hope to stay again next year!Perfect location for us near the middle of island. Not too far from shopping, kayaking, hiking, and swimming. An amazing hike to Eagle Ridge, accessible without driving, just a short walk down a quiet road!The cabin was thoughtfully designed and beautifully built. A perfect place for an extended visit with everything you might need.

This is an easy review to write, the cabin is perfect. Laurie and Ed are lovely hosts and their cabin is delightful. Spotlessly clean with everything you need. Quiet and private. Sitting on the dock and watching the tides ebb and flow is hypnotizing. Lots of hikes in the forest as well as beaches for strolling. We'll be back.

Beautiful little property! The hosts were fabulous! The cabin is like new and emmaculety clean. If you can't do stairs, I suggest maybe this isn't the one as it is a loft bedroom. Be prepared for a few kilometers of rough gravel road., however, it is worth it. An extremely quite spot.

Beautiful, clean, modern efficient small house with everything you need for a short or long stay. They even had our favourite cooking spices and coffee for the coffee maker. They also have a dishwasher and washer dryer for clothes which is great. Great views, lovely property and a short drive to everything. Host Laurie answered all of our questions I recommend it highly!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful cabin and would highly recommend it. The property was absolutely immaculate—everything looked brand new and was exceptionally clean from top to bottom. The cabin itself is gorgeous, thoughtfully maintained, and very comfortable.The beds were incredibly comfortable, and all of the linens were fresh, clean, and high quality, which made our stay even more enjoyable. The location was also fantastic, making it easy to enjoy the surrounding area.One of the highlights of our stay was the host, who was warm, welcoming, and a pleasure to deal with. Their attention to detail and care for the property really showed.Overall, this is a beautiful place to stay. We had a lovely time and would happily return again in the future.
