The instructions that were sent just prior to the stay were informative and excellent, with easy instructions on how to get into the property. The cabin had a great view and was well appointed with everything you could have wanted. I would highly recommend a stay here and we will be back.
At the end of a day of hiking it was great to come back, grab a cold beer/wine and sit on the deck to watch the sunset. There was even a little racoon playing in the bushes down below.
There wasn't anything really. The only suggestion we have is it would be great to have a book in the cabin with information (Wifi code, places to eat, places to visit etc.) even if some of it is a repeat of what was sent prior to our stay.

The living room and kitchen areas were spacious. The interior design was warm and comfortable. The location was in a quiet area with nice views because it was on the top floor.
Keeping our only one private parking spot available for parking was a challenge; we had to hunt down an offender occupying the spot after return from a trip on the second day. The rest is very minor: The building is shared by 4 units and it can be busy on the balconies. The spacing between the buildings is a bit tight too. The road in front of the unit remains unpaved and cars can be heard leaving in the morning. The bedrooms are relatively small and space is tight.

Amazing location, wonderful accomodations.

The apartment is a dream. It is equipped with everything you need, the rooms are decorated with love and coziness. The barbecue was practical and the terrace super for cozy evenings. The view from the house is fantastic and it is so idyllic and quiet. The access to the house via a code went smoothly.
Booking said something about a deposit in cash. This was not needed. The town of Port Renfrew was almost empty when we arrived. Since we had been grocery shopping before, it was not a problem.

The solitude and exceptional view from the unit
There was only one restuarant and very few options of people who are vegan

Truly one of the best places we have ever stayed. Beautiful views, amazing sunset, completely relaxing.

The view! The view! The view! So much beauty! I also loved the bath and a half, having them attached to the bedrooms like they are is great. Everything was clean and the kitchen was adequately stocked.
Not much really, the remoteness of the unit and the lack of open restaurants may be a negative for some people but we loved the beauty of the area.

The body soap was empty, and there were two bottles of shampoo but no conditioner. Also, there’s no hair dryer.

Everything awesome

The email giving the door code, location directions, fireplace & fireplace directions, attractions locations, etc. arrived almost 2 days late..when were already onsite. The remote location didn't have cell or wifi service so, we were stranded without being able to unlock the keypad & enter the house. Fortunately for us, someone had left the sliding door open and we were able to gain entry. Very stressful situation.

What an amazing accommodation right by the ocean - beautifully done up, looks and feels new. Very well stocked - owners thought of everything one could possibly need.
It would be nice to offer some information / paper maps and pamphlets about things to do and see in the area (eg the large, ancient trees), given that there’s no network in the region.

An amazing location, breathtaking views 😍
The property is very clean, comfortable and decorated nicely.
Although you don't meet the owner, they answe quickly to any question and the pre arrival instructions are very clear and helpful.
The fire pit is a great thing when you wanna chill before bed.
Don't forget to bring food and snacks with you.
I even took star trails photography as it's in an amazing surrounding with no light pollution.
The only thing is the shower curtain saw a better day... time to replace it.

Perfect location in front of the sea and unsurpassable views. New apartment with all commodities. Easy check in with a code. Close to a Restaurant in the Marina.. The information sent by the hosts was very useful.
nothing, everything perfect. Perhaps our room was a litle small.

Everything, the perfect get away! This gorgeous 2 bed condo was the perfect place for our west coast holiday. We stayed for 3 days and could have stayed for 3 years. We arrived after dark and were absolutely blown away by the breath-taking view the next morning. The balcony has a beautiful fire pit and fantastic BBQ that we were able to grill some steaks on and sit out there for the entire evening even in February.
Angela has thought of absolutely everything you could possibly need during your stay. The bed is super comfy, the fire is cosy and the decor is really welcoming, modern. Everywhere was spotlessly clean and the kitchen is one of the best equipped I've ever experienced in a rental, it was an absolute pleasure to cook in and I now want one of those amazing stoves.
The staff went above and beyond by arranging a special welcoming gift of wine, chocolate and a lovely card because we were celebrating a birthday. We honestly had the best stay and I could not recommend anymore.
The clever design maximises the space available and it's so gorgeous you'll be tempted not to leave but make sure to go exploring and check out the old growth at Avatar Grove, the magnificent waves and brave surfers at Sombrio Beach (we even saw a black bear cub foraging on the beach) and the tidepools at Botanical Beach.
Thanks for a wonderful stay Angela, we would love to come back some time!

Not applicable, most restaurants were closed for the winter months.
Only one restaurant was open which was The Renfrew Pub. The other restaurant, Bridgemans West Coast Eatery opened late & closed early. I'd recommend bringing groceries with you when visiting Port Renfrew. There is only one General Store/market to buy stuff which has very limited in supplies. No fresh meats, all frozen.

Our stay was in the month of November. There was everything we needed for our stay. Suitable for 4 people. Easy and convenient to book the room / apartment. Good instructions for accommodation. Clean and fresh. Two toilets were a plus. The beds are super comfortable. There was a fireplace that raised the cosiness factor and warmed up a bit. Large panoramic windows facing an absolutely stunning view. The terrace that went around the home was very nice and usable.
