About this cottage rental

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)

Great little rental. Location was perfect, walkable to everything in Ganges. Very clean. Right by the main road but we didn’t hear any road noise.

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

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.

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.

Excellent communication with owner and property care-taker. Friendly and accommodating. Loved the privacy of the property given the close proximity to the action of the village.

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.
