Oceanside Cottage in the Trees - stunningly private, yet so central!

This is the very best of West Coast Canada!

This romantic cottage has it all. So private, yet close to all the excitement of Ganges Harbour. The famous Saltspring Weekend Market is a 2 minute stroll away. Wonderful art galleries, restaurants, shops, pubs, studios are all within a wander from your private sanctuary in the trees. Beach access is directly on the property.

There is much to do here for all ages. On the property, there is plenty of exploring to do, and the 300 feet of private beach front to enjoy.

A vast variety of birds and other wildlife make this 4 acre property home. Watch the swans, eagles, hummingbirds, quail and other exotic birds from the beach and expansive veranda. Raccoons, otters, deer and other critters are curious, safe and plentiful.

Off the property, hiking, kayaking, sailing, golfing, fine dining, casual dining, patio drinking, swimming, shopping, scuba diving, a day at the spa, fishing, yoga, farmers markets, etc... are all close at hand.

I guarantee you will love your stay here as much as we do!

FOR NEW RESERVATIONS:
Breakfast is included but very basic: coffee/tea and a basket of simple breakfast bars to satisfy your morning hunger, but also to satisfy the legal requirements for short-term rentals on these islands.

This house is operated by the Island Heritage Appreciation Club which allows members to use it to cover the costs. Membership is open to all those who appreciate well-maintained heritage properties.

(The sofa has recently been changed since a past guest mentioned that it was not comfortable enough)

Fun 4 days away from home

The place is fine for a few days holiday. Just on the edge of Ganges so easy to walk everywhere. Lovely weather so we were out most of the day. The place had everything you'd need but i would not want to have to stay inside all day. People say it’s noisy because of the road but it is set well back so is fine. The bed was very comfy though a little small if your husband is 6’3! The couch was very uncomfortable. The heating was good. Overall it was nice, particularly the area…..

Know what you are renting

This property is not at all secluded as the ad suggests. Is it in the trees? Yes. And also RIGHT beside a main road. If you want secluded I suggest you keep looking, if you want central then this might work. Additionally, this property is very old and has that musty smell that old houses do, no fan in the bathroom and lots of cobwebs. The washer and dryer were outside in a spider filled area. There is absolutely no private beach, there’s a grassy area and beach shared with the other families staying in one of the other houses on the property. Also - no continental breakfast. We found the previous guests cell phone and the cleaner told us she just did “a quick clean” before us

Little cabin in the woods

A very comfortable and cute cabin in a perfect location. Great walking access to everything, nice patch of grass for the dogs to play in every day and because it’s in the trees it stayed relatively cool during some very hot days….although I would suggest bringing or buying a fan to use while there. The bed was comfy and it was very clean. Super quiet even though it’s close to town. Highly recommended for a couple, small family with or without pets. Our dogs loved it.

Amazing location and a cute and quaint cottage

I came here for a girls weekend and the cottage had nearly everything we needed. The location couldn't have been more ideal and you're right by the action. We had an issue with the shower and the property manager replied back promptly. It would have been nice to have more essentials in the kitchen like sugar for tea, etc. But overall it was a wonderful rental.

Cozy Cottage

From the charming village, great eateries, wonderful hiking vistas, and glorious sunsets, Saltspring island is a lovely spot for a little getaway. This cottage provided a central location to launch the day exploring. A well outfitted kitchen with all the amenities you need to start the day off, including a bakery across the street, and groceries nearby. For those of us GF DF, no worries. You can easily enjoy a meal in or out, as the island is very friendly to those with dietary needs. We truly enjoyed our stay in the cozy cottage.

Review

Great location - so central yet off the main road and right by the harbour sea. Yard makes it feel like you’re right in the forest. Affordable and easy check-in / out process. Things we would recommend to owner: 1 extra bath towel per person, clean all kitchenware after guest use as we found old coffee in the French press, wash and shake out blankets in cupboard as we found what looked like a nest in the making and then were afraid to see a mouse, dust for cobwebs and spiders as there were multiple daddy long longs in the bathroom. Otherwise, everything we needed and definitely no deal breakers for the price and location. Had a great time!

Decent location but…

There are both pros and cons to this property. The pros-Having caught an early ferry, I arrived earlier than expected. Tara, the property manager, was kind enough to let me in a few hours before 4:00 which was nice. It is a good location for walking to the market, shops, restaurants, etc. And yes, it is in a mostly forest type environment. What they ad doesn’t say is that the cabin is also about 100 feet from the main, very busy and noisy, road in to Ganges. It does not mention that there is a family of otters living under the house. Now, depending on your opinion of otters, this could be both a pro and a con. If you are travelling with small children or, as I was, with a dog, it would have been useful information to know. If you Google it, you will see that sea otters are quite capable of injuring or killing a pet. And the fact that they fought every night while under the house made sleeping difficult. Hands-down the worst con about this property is the horrific smell in the bathroom. I do not know how what appears to be a completely normal bathroom can smell so strongly and disgustingly like an old outhouse that has not been cleaned in a very long time. There are some serious septic issues. The rest of the cabin was fine. The bed was very comfortable and the kitchen was sufficient. There is no coffee machine. There are two coffee presses, neither one of which work properly. All things considered I would not stay here again. Too bad, it could be such a gem!!

Great island stay

The cottage is cozy with everything we needed for our week-long stay on Salt Spring Island. It's super easy to find from the main road and close to everything. We enjoyed walking through Ganges, taking in the shops and restaurants. We enjoyed our home cooked breakfast on the back deck that looked towards the woods. We appreciated the onsite washer and dryer, which meant we didn't have to cart around dirty clothes.The cottage is quiet at night and bright during the day. We slept really well and enjoyed the surrounding sites: Salt Spring Island cheese, hikes up Mounts Maxwell and Erskine, Hastings House, Moby's Pub, the Treehouse Cafe and the Wild Cider House. This cottage is great for two and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here while we celebrated our 10th anniversary.

Listing was not as stated

The overall condition of the cottage was average. There was a strong smell from the bathroom and you could also smell this from the back deck. Septic leakage most likely. No outside lightning as stated in the listing. 2 granola bars were provided on our five day stay. Coffee and a light breakfast was stated in the add. This was not fulfilled. Beach access. Yes there was beach access, however the beach was covered in toilet paper and sewage. Possibly from boats dumping in the bay. I have kayaked all over the Gulf Island and have never seen a beach this disgusting. Having beach access was why we chose this listing. The cottage was located right next to the busy main road. Traffic was nonstop. I felt like I had not left the City (Vancouver). Kitchen amenities were good. Linens and towels were also good. There are as dirt/grass parking in front of the cottage which was very uneven. The step to the front door was very rickety. The back stairs had a step that was loose and about to break at any time.

Very convenient location - easy walk to everything we needed in town. Great access to large grassy area and beach. There was some traffic noise but fairly quiet in the evening. Not a lot of daylight in the house but that probably helped keeping the inside cool.

Needs a little tlc

Sofa and chair very uncomfortable. Strange smell in bathroom could mean septic needs empty. Needs better outside furniture. Even with that bed very comfortable. Easy access to everything, and we did enjoy the stay. One last thing for a b&b not expecting daily gourmet but your offering for 6 nights really really crappy,need to up your game.

Absolutely magical cabin by the woods, water and town!

This little magical cabin is amazing! Literally the best of everything! Out front is the center of town and to the side is a magical little path to the water and you’re surrounded by woods! Even though it’s near the road leading into town I didn’t hear any traffic inside the cabin! And the dogs could roam out back since it’s all encased in beautiful woods and flowers (thanks to Tara’s green thumb)! There were perfect little snacks, maps and goodies waiting! All the essentials and then some! The bed was so comfortable and waking up to the sunrise in the trees was out of this world!! You can walk to anywhere in Ganges or walk a few steps to sit by a meadow right on the water! I was so sad to leave such a precious little place! I was lucky enough to cross paths with Tara who takes care of the property (and adds all the special touches) and talk about an absolute divine human! So kind and so lucky to have met her and shared a beautiful evening talking about this wonderful island life! Truly hope my fur boys and I can return!

Acerca del anfitrión

Anfitrión: Michael

Foto de perfil del anfitrión
I'm a city boy from Vancouver, who has always dreamed of enjoying and maintaining an island heritage property (You don't so much 'own' such a property as take your turn looking after it)

Traveling is in my blood, but I love the natural wonders and serenity of the Gulf Islands of British Columbia more than anywhere else I have been privileged enough to visit.

An environmentalist at heart, I am sensitive to keeping this property chemical free and the house as healthy a living space as possible.

Por qué eligió esta propiedad

We fell in love with this late 19th century estate when a friend bought it many years ago. Every opportunity to visit that came up, we made it a priority to get there. When it came on the market, I just had to try for it.

This is one of those properties that changes your life in so many ways, and all of them for the better.

Qué distingue a esta propiedad

Once you arrive at this property, you no longer need your car. Everything you need is within close walking distance. But when you enter and close the gate behind you, you are in a private world all your own and the outside world ceases to exist. It is the very best of all worlds!
