Vacation rentals with a kayak in Salt Spring Island

My Family and I had a wonderful stay at Gabriel's property. We were a group of 8 adults and 2 children, and we all fit comfortably inside his home. There was a lot of seating available to dine together as a family, and a lot of separate areas for when we wanted some time for ourselves. The kids enjoyed exploring the beaches for different sea creatures when the tide was low. I would recommend water shoes or something more sturdy than flip flops. The sandy areas created strong suction against our soles, and there are a lot of rocks and shells around the shore area. During high tide, we were visited by some sea lions in the distance. The kitchen was well equipped. We cooked many of our meals and there were ample pots, pans, seasonings, plates and cutlery available for our use. The property was clean, and it good condition. Plenty of towels were provided for the beach and hot tub. I would recommend this property for large groups who want a peaceful beach vacation.

We came down to run a grad retreat for our youth program. Steve went above and beyond to make us feel welcome by decorating for the special occasion and leaving us with yummy goodies. We loved all the amenities, especially the outdoor spaces. Thank you for being such a great communicative host! We will be back!

Amazing home. Very comfy place to stay.

What a great spot! Nestled in the woods in a peaceful and quiet setting this place is truly one-of-a-kind. The house is very unique with lots of character that sets it apart from the usual stays. It was clean and had all we needed. Our host Gramma Rikki was exceptionally warm and welcoming. Unfortunately, the weather did not cooperate, and we could not take advantage of all the outdoor spaces and amenities. We played pool, sat by the cozy fire and did some island exploring by car. All in all it was a very enjoyable and relaxing getaway despite the crummy weather. We hope to return one day and experience everything this wonderful place has to offer.

We had a great time at Suzannes apartment. It’s very well equipped and nicely located close to the lake with many things to do around Lake Cowichan.

When we arrived Lois greeted us with a warm welcome! We felt comfortable right away. The house is beautiful and comes with everything you need to feel right at home. The property also has a gorgeous view of the mountains. We really enjoyed our stay. It was perfect.

Shauna was really responsive and helpful if we had any questions. The view of the lake was beautiful and the space was comfortable and worked great for our big group.

We loved our stay at Mike and Brynn’s house! It was so peaceful and absolutely breathtaking views of the bay. We loved kayaking, hiking and island hopping! They have all the amenities to make your stay stress free and were phenomenal communicators. If you are looking for a relaxing trip, this is a great spot! We would definitely love to return in the future!

We had a great long weekend at Gloria’s cottage. The marina was beautiful to look over and the general store was convenient for basics. The staff were friendly and very helpful for recommendations around the island.

Had a great weekend stay at Lesha’s cozy little cabin. Even though it was super hot outside the cabin was nice and cool inside probably because of how nice and nestled into the trees it is. Really enjoyed my peaceful morning coffee sitting on the porch in the rocker looking out over the lake and the dock/lake access was perfect during the heat of the day. This is a great home base for a nice relaxing Shawnigan Lake trip!

We had an incredible stay at this beautiful lake-side cottage. The place is right on the lake with amazing views. The interior is super cozy, with comfy couches and beds. It's one of those places where you immediately feel at home. Our hosts were incredibly responsive, kind, and helpful. We would love to come again!

My sister and I had a lovely time staying at Bill and Ashley’s cottages. The cabin was the perfect little size, and equipped with everything we needed to cook lovely meals and enjoy a fun relaxing weekend. Big thanks to Bill for lending us a guitar capo when we realized we had forgotten ours! Say hi to Zoey and Louie for us, can’t wait to visit again :)

The cottage and surrounding area was extremely peaceful and absolutely beautiful. I recommend coming out here if you want true relaxation

We really enjoyed our stay and would love to come back in the summer. It was a very comfortable house for our large family. Beautiful area, very easy to find and get back and forth.

Amazing place to stay. My kids love the cottage and spend most of the time outside playing in nature. Ashley was quick to respond. We will definitely would like to come back here again.

We have stayed at these cabins multiple times now and always enjoy our stays here - our group of husbands has stayed here many times on boys’ weekends and we’ve had our own girls weekend here too. This was our first time staying as a group of couples and it was incredible as always. The hosts are extremely friendly, accommodating and helpful, and the cabins themselves are perfect for a weekend of fishing on St Mary lake. This is one of the most peaceful places I’ve ever stayed; sitting on the end of the dock just listening to nature, watching the eagles fish all around us, is pure bliss. The cabins themselves are cozy and clean, with nice beds and linens, and everything you need to cook up great meals in the kitchen or on the bbq. If you are coming to Salt Spring for a getaway, these cabins are an amazing value and perfect for anyone looking to connect with nature. We love it here and recommend this resort to anyone that wants to visit Salt Spring.

Dean's place is a well planned with modern amenities and touches of older charm. He was very helpful and the only regret is our visit was too short.

Very peaceful and serene stay, host was very friendly!

Amazing location and setting. Place was perfect for medium sized group and lots of available amenities at the house.

The cabin had all of the accommodations we needed. It was nice to be able to have a fire during the cooler hours, and to be able to walk down to the docks. We bought delicious frozen pizza and lasagna from the store for our first night there.

We loved our stay and wished we had planned a longer trip. It was so peaceful and beautiful. We can’t wait to come back.

The cabins are very cute, and the lake is beautiful.

Had an amazing time. The cabin and site were wonderful and very well equipped. Judy clearly cares deeply about the upkeep and quality of guests’ stay. Would recommend this to anyone. Thank you Judy!

We had a wonderful few days, very tranquil, lovely location. Would stay here again.
