Farmstay vacation rentals in Strathcona

Exquisitely stunning setting & soul-drenching experience. Saltwater Farm is nourishing in every sense & Cortes island is soulfully loved by the locals. This is a place to touch, enter & experience beauty & goodness. I am dreaming of my next trip back here, in any season. For solitude & love alike, Saltwater Farm is a gift of extraordinary virtue.

My family and I loved this place! it was very spacious and had all the amenities, kitchen accessories you may need. The farm is beautiful and the breakfast was lovely. 5 stars!!

I throughly enjoyed my stay in the green room. Hans was very informative and the environment was relaxed and comfortable. The garden was a treat as well as the lovely neighborhood. I walked so many trails and it was an easy walk to the main shopping area, best of both worlds. Thank you Hans for having me stay in your home retreat!

We had a truly wonderful stay at Carol and Cliff’s place. They’re the kind of hosts who make you feel looked after without ever being overbearing. They’re warm, attentive, and clearly put a lot of love in their home. One of the highlights was watching our daughter explore their herb garden with Carol, getting to know the different scents and plants; a small gesture that meant a lot. The guest suite itself felt even more spacious than the photos suggest, yet still cozy and thoughtfully put together. Immaculately clean and equipped with everything we needed, it struck a perfect balance between hotel-level polish and the comfort of a well-loved home. We spent hours reading from their library and relaxing on the deck, soaking in the peace and quiet. It’s a perfect base for exploring the area, with Daniel Point, Hotel Lake, and other local spots just minutes away. A beautiful place, and hosts who genuinely care. We’re looking forward to our return (hopefully) soon.

We loved it here! The cottage and property were so charming and inviting. Our kids loved their cozy bed nooks with toys hidden underneath. We all enjoyed spending time with the animals and wandering the wonderful flower and vegetable gardens. Carol was exceptionally welcoming and generous. We would definitely recommend staying here and are already planning to return.

Thank you for everything! We had an amazing time. Just a heads up, we stayed in the forest tent and the bed is severely caved in. We had disrupted sleep from rolling into each other and having to wake up to flop over to the other side and then again and again. If the bed was flatter it would have been everything we needed for a restful and recuperating glamping getaway. Thanks again!

I booked Karen’s micro cabin as a birthday trip for my mom, and it was absolutely perfect. Tucked into the peaceful forest of Halfmoon Bay, this cozy little retreat is full of charm and warmth. The wood stove kept us toasty in the evenings, and we especially loved the adorable outdoor shower—with very hot running water! It was such a unique and refreshing way to start the day. We did a beautiful hike through Smuggler Cove Marine Provincial Park, just a short drive away, and came back to total peace and quiet in the woods. The cabin is thoughtfully designed, super clean, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Karen was very responsive and helpful throughout our trip, and we felt truly taken care of. This was such a special experience—one we’ll both remember for a long time. Highly recommend!

We really enjoyed our stay in the cottage by the sea. So nice to have a private beach access.

Blackstone Creek Ranch is a perfect retreat - what a lovely place to stay - spacious , well appointed and quiet . You’re on a working farm that is minutes away from great beaches with many scenic places to explore. Brianne is a gracious host - it doesn’t get much better !

We stayed for 2 days at the place of Trevor and Sabrina. We immediately felt at home and had a great time in and around the yurt. We had a bit of rain but never had a dull moment, partially due to the size of the yurt. Our kids could move around freely. We had good communications. Would recommend ++

We had a lovely stay at the farm! Such a peaceful and beautiful property set back in the trees on Quadra! A perfect retreat for us while we came to explore a few of the trails and the charm of the island ❤️

10/10 stay. private and serene. Was a perfect spot to relax after 4 days of golf. As someone who likes to prepare their own meals, the kitchen had everything I needed. We had one issue on the first night Jennifer responded immediately, and it was resolved while we were out for the day. Amazing service. The Romaine lettuce and farm eggs that we purchased from the farm were delicious. Location for us was perfect, rural, but within 15mins of everything we needed and the solitude is worth it. Thanks again for a great stay, see you next time!

We had an amazing weekend at the cabin! Cheyenne was incredibly helpful, and we truly appreciated the flexibility. We highly recommend this beautiful location and can’t wait to return on our next visit to the Sunshine Coast. Thanks again!

A very comfortable place to stay with an outstanding view. Great value.

Kelli’s place is really beautiful, and relaxing. The patio is perfect for your morning coffee rain or shine. We’d definitely stay again.

This is a very nice house. It's right on the edge of town on a large private country lot. The layout was perfect for two of us and our dog. The house is clean and presents well. The descriptions are accurate. Overall it was a comfortable and enjoyable experience.

This is a beautiful, peaceful property. The tiny home had everything we needed for a cozy stay and space to work if needed. There were lots of trails around the property to go for walks with our dog and the fenced yard was a bonus! Lots of wildlife around and amazing stars at night. We will definitely be back!

Was great see you next year

Beautiful character home on a farm setting. Home had everything needed to feel right at home and the location was perfect for a proper disconnect from the hustle and bustle of the city. Loved sleeping at night with the windows open and hearing the frogs and in the morning the turkeys gobbling. Had suppers on the patio overlooking the yard everyday. Will definitely stay with Eve again if I’m in the area!
