About this house rental
Escape the city and unwind in this tastefully renovated cottage – perfect for a family or a romantic getaway!! Nestled in Fulford Harbour, you approach the sunny 2.5 acre property from a circular driveway. The cottage is beautifully situated to enjoy stunning ocean views of Russell Island and Mt Baker. Two sets of French doors lead out to a deck that will leave you breathless with the spectacular views.
A designer-inspired kitchen with a gourmet Heartland stove has everything you need to prepare summer meals and enjoy them on the flagstone patio. The kitchen is very well equipped even for a discerning chef. And for those on clean up duty, a 2 drawer dishwasher and large farmhouse sink make the job easy!
An expansive living room with a vaulted ceiling is furnished with pine Canadiana pieces for your comfort. Books, board games and videos are available to help you unwind and relax or share some laughs. The warmth of the wood burning fireplace will keep you cozy on those cooler days.
A peaceful sleep awaits you in one of 3 bedrooms: one with a queen bed overlooking the ocean, a second queen bed with views to the forest. A secret loft is also available for additional sleeping and has a queen size bed from which you can enjoy the stars and moon through the skylight. (It is accessed with an oak library-style ladder so not for everyone) Two newly renovated bathrooms also await you– one powder room and a second with a walk-in rain shower.
Spend your days soaking in the sights and sounds on this quiet part of the island. Meandering through the forest trails on the property. Whether enjoying your morning coffee on the deck or happy hour on the patio, you are sure to love the outdoor living that awaits you!
There are several ‘extras’ at this family friendly cottage. The lower level has a Foosball and Ping Pong table. The kids nook has several toys for various ages as well as a super cool Harry Potter sleeping hollow. For the youngest guests, we have a playpen, baby monitor and highchair (booster seat type) available for your enjoyment.
We truly enjoy sharing our piece of paradise. In the spirit of giving back, we donate a percentage of the revenues to our favourite charities: Mosaic, BC Women's Hospital Foundation and Upendo - a Tanzanian orphanage
NOTE: A secondary cabin is on the property and used by the owner only. It is fully self contained and has its own patio space, etc. If you have questions, please ask. .

We arrived and the hosts immediately greeted us and made us at home.
John went out of his way to make plugging our EV in easy and simple.
The home feels like stepping back to a quieter time with views to die for.
We travelled all over the island but coming home to this property was the highlight of our trip.
We would come again and will!

Beautiful stay on salt spring. Property was fully equipped and the hosts had thought of everything. Unforgettable views from the front deck. A great family location (we travelled with a toddler) with everything you could need for your stay.

This property was wonderful from start to finish. An easy ride from the ferry...everyone else went the other way...on a quiet street with incredible views out to the sea. Starting from the picturesque flagstone steps to the front door, immediately seeing the sea views, through to the amazing kitchen, and then to the rest of the lovely decorated and cozy home...it's exactly what we hoped for and needed. Everything was comfortable, it had everything we needed and more and John was great to deal with through the whole process. With great thanks for sharing this...AM,R & I

The property lived up to and exceeded our expectations. The layout of the property worked well for two couples. The location is quiet and very pretty - offering views to the passing ferries to/from Fulford Harbour and mountains in the distance. Entering the home, we were greeted by a well appointed, tastefully decorated home with views of the waterway leading to/from Fulford Harbour. The property was very clean. Lots of dry wood to get a cozy fire going. Getting down to the waterfront from the property is just a short walk across the street, followed by a little walk across the grass and down some stairs.
I would definitely consider staying at this property again.

While this review won't likely show up on your site as the host is running his VRBO illegally, VRBO should know that the owner of this property has been dishonest with us and likely other guests. The cottage is also in a state of disrepair and no longer clean.

My husband and I went to the cottage with our two sons and their girlfriends, and we had a wonderful week. We spent a lot of time just enjoying the spectacular view from the deck, and when we wanted some shade, we just moved to the back deck or the side patio. With the forest in the back and the water in the front, it was a very peaceful place to relax and recharge.
The cottage is beautifully decorated with interesting antiques, and the furniture was very comfortable, as were the beds. In the daytime, the boys went off hiking and swimming, and in the evenings we made dinner in the very well-stocked kitchen and played board games together. On the last night, we were even able to sit around a fire in the wood-burning stove.
Our sons are in their twenties, so they enjoyed playing foosball and ping pong in the basement, but the cottage would also be perfect for younger children, as there are lots of books, games, and toys, along with a zipline and a fort in the forest.
We'll have a dilemma on our hands next summer because although we enjoy exploring the Gulf islands, we're very tempted to return to Juniper Cottage.

Fabulous stay on Fulford Harbour in this lovely house. Really comfy and well-equipped, with a great kitchen and lovely wood burning stove. Beach access and woodland above meant a whole heap of space. Great outdoor area. A surprising and fun kids area downstairs - our teens loved the fussball and ping pong, younger kids would love the whole set up with 5 basement beds in a rumpus room type set up.
