A unique cabin on peaceful Galiano island. A short walk to a totally secluded beach, and just a 5 minute drive from an amazing coffee spot. The hot tub is ideal for star gazing after a day of hiking! Super large and comfy bed, too. Henny was very kind and helpful during our stay!

The Lodge: Private beach, kayaks, hot tub, bikes,

GinaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
I was traveling with 3 kids (pre teen and teens). We all loved our stay! There was so much to do and absolutely everything we needed for anything we could think of doing. We enjoyed ping pong, biking, s’more’s, kayaking, games, cooking meals, watching wildlife (seals, a huge sea lion, weasel, bald eagles), and hanging out with a friendly black cat that visited. I cooked a couple meals and had everything I needed for cooking and storage. The view was amazing and north-facing which made me upset that I missed the strong auroras by 1 day :( I wish we could have stayed longer!

Dinner Bay Private Cottage

ClaireRating, 5 stars2 days ago
The cabin has stunning views and makes you feel like you’re up in the tree canopy. There are hammocks for the deck (which my kids loved). There is a playground within a 5 minute walk, a horse shoes game, mini putting green, baseball court, and Japanese garden. This was a huge bonus for us.

River House on the Elwha River & the Olympic Park

LovickRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Richard is a great guy, very helpful! The view from the great room is breathtaking! The view goes down a straight stretch of salmon river to wooded slopes in the distance going up to majestic snow-covered peaks. You can see it clearly through the glass windows in the great room, and from a very nice Well done patio. Love the place!

Codfish Cottage Cabin on the Strait of Juan de Fuc

PamRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This was our home base for the HOH rainforest. The forest was about 2 hrs away. The place is gorgeous, we didn't want to leave. We could have stayed all week and found so many things to do locally. The windows were large and we were right on the ocean. The dishes were cute, there was a wine opener (which was key). It was quiet safe, the waves were so loud (very cool), our patio was cute. There was electricity! Just a few lights and outlets to still have a glamping feel without being on the screen all day. The bed and sheets were so comfortable. Some mistakes I made. 1. Get groceries in Sequim or Port Angeles. We stopped at a tiny market and were very limited then saw a whole store! 2. A lot of places weren't open after 8, so plan for dinner ahead. 3. We thought we had to get there because it would be so dark, but in the summer we should have not hurried, there was plenty of light even when the sun was gone.

Lake Front Cabin, Qualicum Beach

KimberleyRating, 5 stars4 days ago
This is such a special place! The Cabin is an authentic, traditional family cabin, with plenty of supplies for a comfortable stay, but the location right on the lake is something else! We loved using the boats, spotting wildlife, playing on the beach. Such a memorable place to be with our family. We were also grateful for the prompt communication from Don. Thanks again

The Sea House

PeterRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We had such a great stay at Niki and Neal's cottage. Everything was as described, if not better! We couldn't have been happier with the location and set-up in the cottage. We enjoyed friendly interactions with Niki and Neal + equally pets, appreciated some very tasty homemade treats and learned about the local swimming lake that was close by. I would have been very happy to stay in Fulford Harbor for much longer, soaking up the local flavor / nature / hiking / swimming that is all close enough to not even need a car (although we did have and use one).

Beautiful condo, full of amenities, comfy bed, gorgeous views. Perfect for longer stays. We were only there for a couple of nights, making it hard to justify all the air BnB fees, but not the hosts fault. Would certainly rent again when we have longer time to visit my grandsons.

Waterfalls Hotel: Luxury Stay Near Empress

AnthonyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This is a great place to stay to be next to downtown Victoria. It’s as advertised in the listing’s description and photos. There’s plenty of room for a couple and everything is in good condition. Washroom facilities, washer/dryer units, and wifi all worked well. We did not use any of the cooking appliances. The location is walkable to plenty of restaurants/bars in the area. We were comfortable and felt safe walking around at night; we did not have any issues with noise. Agata is a great host! Her instructions made check-in and check-out super easy. She responded within minutes anytime I messaged her. Overall, I would highly recommend this place, especially for couples, if you want to be next to downtown Victoria.

We loved staying at Deanna’s. The resort was excellent and the kids had a blast. Lots of games in the unit, kitchen was well equipped for 2 adults and 3 kids under 12. Beach was great and when it rained, the heated indoor pool and games room was amazing!
