We arrived with high expectations, and were still blown away. Between the sunsets in the hot tub and the porpoises, hatchling geese, variety of cheerfully chirping birds, seals and all manner of beautiful living things, this property had it all and then some. It is clear John and Cordelia love their home and enjoy sharing it, meticulously maintaining the local ecosystems. Thank you for sharing your cottage with us!

We had a very comfortable and wam stay in this beautiful,quiet location. The cabin is situated on the water with otters, seal, eagles,and kingfishers to watch even at this time of year. Although the weather was mostly chilly and wet we had sunny breaks that provided us times to walk and enjoy the rural area that provides many receational opportunities. Cordelia and John are wonderful hosts and very freindly and helpful. Thank you!

We were lucky to be accepted here. Their waiting list can go up to two years. And with good reason. The cabin is located at the end of a road, on a little peninsula, overlooking the Saanich Inlet. It accommodates two people and we were extremely comfortable. Our hosts, Cordelia and John were very attentive and made sure we knew what to do in the surrounding areas. The kitchen is well appointed with lots of the little things we often forget to bring along. Same thing for the bathroom which has the best soaker tub and a wonderful rain shower. It's a great experience for those looking for a quiet time away from busyness but close enough to some wonderful shopping and restaurants. Highly recommended.

This location is so beautiful and serene, you almost need to go nowhere else. Cordeia is quite gracious and helpful, and the cabin is comfortable and has all amenities. The neighborhood is lovely, and the town of Sidney charming, yet you are still realtively close to any other attractions. I would come back!

We had an amazing time. The hosts, Cordelia and John were so welcoming and helpful with the local sights and things to see, the cabin was wonderful, the bed was so comfortable. It was amazing to fall asleep listening to the water lapping against the shore. We can't wait to return for another visit.
