Danielle’s cottage and annex were perfect for us three ladies getting together. The venue was spectacular being right on/over the ocean. The layout works so well with the kitchen along the back and the bedrooms and living area with fireplace looking out at the amazing view. Add in super comfortable beds, lovely bathrooms, and all the amenities you could ever want, it was a wonderful few days there. We will go back! Thank you for sharing it with us Danielle.

What a lovely cottage! Location on the water was picturesque and perfect for nature watching, with herons and harbour seals visiting and sea lions a short walk away. So many shops and restaraunts short walk away! The cottage itself is beautifully appointed with every amenity you can want or need from the well stocked kitchen to the beach toys and firepit. This is our 2nd time staying and we will be back!

We loved our stay! If I could give it 10 stars I would. The bunkie and home were super clean, had everything we needed. Being right on the marina was amazing, we saw two harbour seals having supper right on the dock! Would absolutely stay again.

Harbour-front Haven

We absolutely loved our stay in this unique cottage on the water. Beautifully decorated, and clean. Very picturesque views, we loved sitting on the deck looking out at the water and we enjoyed campfires at night. The beds were very comfortable and lots of space for our family. We also enjoyed the little bunk house! The cottage was walking distance to such unique shops and great restaurants. Couldn’t be better! Highly recommend!

What an absolute gem!

This property is absolutely stunning, with the bay views and a dock right of to the water, I highly recommend this for your next Vancouver island adventure. The beds were so comfortable, the kitchen is well stocked with everything you need and more. There is a washer and drier for your convenience and communication with the host was quick and easy. I 100% will be back for another stay here

Location was great, house was very nice, beds a bit small. The silverware however was not washed prior to being put back in the drawers - caked with dried food - so we had to wash all the silverware by hand prior to use.

Beautiful ocean-front property just steps from great parking for our 2 vehicles. Cowibbean Cottage is well set up with harbour views from the bedrooms, living room, and bunkie. We spent lots of time on the deck, eating our meals while watching the tide come and go. Looking down, we saw crabs and other creatures as the water cleared and lowered. We saw seals swim past, a heron land nearby, a bald eagle fly overhead, and lots of swallows, and seagulls. No mosquitoes, which is probably due to the presence of voracious purple martins. A wonderful cottage for a family vacation and one we’ll remember and return to when we can.

The accommodation and the location are both superb. Probably the best holiday rental home I've ever stayed at. I only gave 4 stars for accuracy of description because the images do not do it justice - my advice would be to take more photos or hire a photographer. I contacted Danielle a couple of times (not because of any problems) and received a quick response, friendly and professional. I have literally nothing negative to say about this accommodation - it is stunning. I hope for Danielle's sake that the accommodation is fully booked on all available dates. I hope for my sake that everyone else overlooks it so it will be free for me to book again for my next trip next year.
