They are one of my favourite things to do while at the cottage ~ Old school? Maybe. Fun? Definitely! ;-) I am so pleased that you found your stay 'restful', that's music to my ears as that is why the cottages were created - a place to go with absolutely no itinerary, agenda or schedule to keep.

Thank you very much for your 5* review; I am so pleased that you found your time at the cottage "Just perfect"! I agree with you that the location is ideal - close enough to shopping if you have forgotten anything and so near to the beaches that line the coast from Sooke to Port Renfrew. I love that the cottages are located off of the highway, so there is no traffic noise to spoil the peace and quiet ;-) You were respectful guests, please know that you will always be welcome here. Warmly, Melodie

Hello Jonathan, thank you very much for your 5* review and kind words ;-) I agree with you ~ the view is amazing! It never gets old because, while it is always the same, it is always different too: sail boats, tankers, fishing boats etc. And the wildlife?

I am happy to read that you found the cottage had everything that you needed for a romantic getaway. "Jonathan, should your travels ever bring you back this way, please know you will always be welcome here". Best Wishes for health and happiness in 2025, Melodie

Hello Shelly ~ Thank you very much for your kind words and 5* review and thank you for the compliment, I am blushing ;-) I appreciate your commenting on the placement of the cottages - everyone enjoys the great view, but still has privacy from each other. It works really well, doesn't it? I agree with you, the serenity is wonderful, it helps that we are off the beaten path. Congratulations on 35 years, that's quite the milestone and best wishes for many more. You were lovely guests, "Please know, that should your travels ever bring you back this way, you will always be welcome here." Warmly, Melodie

Kassandra and Floyd, Thank you for choosing Ocean Song Cottages for your hiking weekend in Shirley , I hope the hot tub soothed any aching muscles.

You were ideal guests and will always be welcome here; I hope to see you again. Warmly, Melodie

Hello Peter and Silvia, Thank you so much for your kind words and the 5* review. I am glad that you had a perfect getaway (your words, not mine ;-). I agree with you completely, the property is beautiful ~ the view, the privacy, the lovely beaches nearby, make it ideal for rest and relaxation.

Hello Cheri, thank you very much for your thoughtful comments and the 5* review! I am so happy that you enjoyed the peace and quiet that a cottage stay provides.
