Waterfront vacation rentals in Strathcona

Beautiful location in the historical part of the small town with tremendous sights of the sea, the mountains and the lazy seal sunbathing near the marina. Nigel‘s house is well equipped, cosy and comfortable. Great asset: You can use the lodge‘s kayaks and explore the beautiful Thasis Inlet. Nigel was a great and friendly host and gave helpful advice what to do in this remote area and what NOT do to - like leaving food in the car: There are a lot of bears roaming around. A nice coffee place is nearby. We visited off season in October so it’s very quite in Thasis which was a great experience. Nigel‘s place is highly recommended!

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful Airbnb on Vancouver Island! The view was absolutely breathtaking, and getting to see the alpacas up close was such a unique and special experience. The house itself was spacious, clean, and very comfortable — perfect for relaxing and taking in the peaceful surroundings. Would highly recommend and can’t wait to come back!

Sunny’s place is on the river close to all amenities. Great river view from the top floor balcony. Just what we needed for the night before heading out for a whale watching tour in the morning!

Thank-you Nigel for sharing your home with us. It was so relaxing and peaceful. The unit was nice and clean and had everything that we needed. Enjoyed visiting with you and will be back.

This spot is wonderful, right on the water, with easy access to the beach. This is a rocky beach but an old pair of sneakers or water shoes will ensure you can get right into the water. The sound of ocean at night is a wonderful way to relax and fall asleep. This is a small space but everything you need is here, great for 1 person or a couple. For nature lovers, Seal Bay Park is just right up the street. This location is a nice central spot with easy access to Comox, Courtney, Campbell River and Cumberland. I would definitely return to this spot :)

Great stay in Tahsis with Nigel. Everything we needed for a successful fishing trip was available. Nigel met us at the dock to check us in and show us the great property. Nigel checked in occasionally to make sure we had everything we needed. Top notch, we’ll be back without a doubt.

There are no words to describe Angela’s home. She, Susan and Doug were absolutely amazing! Very friendly, sweet, and gave us a lot of recommendations to spend the weekend. It definitely make your experience so much better as you can make smart decisions on how to utilize and enjoy your time there. Beautiful town, gorgeous home! Very stylish, I even would stole some ideas for my own house. Everything was looking so neat and clean, a very comfortable bed and pillows, for me having a nice night of sleep makes the difference to enjoy my day.

Great Stay at the hotel chateau riverside. Sunny the host was extremely friendly and clear instructions about the place. The Suite was super clean ! I Highly recommend this place.

A perfect location with a beautiful beach for walking, spectacular views of mountains and ocean for a great escape to catch up with friends. A home away from home with a well supplied kitchen for those who like to cook. We had everything we needed at our fingertips. Open the sliding doors off the living room to find an inviting sitting area on the large raised outdoor deck with very comfortable lounging furniture for morning coffee, an afternoon BBQ or just reading a book in the fresh air. It was a perfect way to start and finish our day. Thank you Kent for providing everything we needed for our escape away and your quick response to any questions we sent. Much appreciated. Would love to come back again!

My husband and I had THE best time at Jason's place to celebrate my 50th birthday! Jason is quick to respond to any questions and is very friendly. The house is very clean and has everything you need. I had very restful sleeps as the beds are very comfortable. Nothing beats waking up to the sights and sounds of the ocean from your bedroom! We brought our e-bikes to explore the area and what a great idea it was. 2KM down the road from the house is stunning Storey's Beach. We hit low tide and could bike on the sand for the entire length of the beach! We even saw a gold eagle. Exploring Fort Rupert is easy to do on bikes as well. If you are looking for a quiet , peaceful place surrounded by gorgeous scenery and abundant wildlife, this is the place for you! At the house we saw eagles, lots of different birds, otters and a black bear family! It's perfectly located to explore the North Island and come "home" to relax on your own secluded beach. Stop scrolling, just book this place!

This place is an absolute gem. Location is stunning and the house is very comfortable and clean. This is becoming an annual retreat for us. Love it here!

Thank you so much for having us again :-)

The place and location was amazing. Everything was perfect. The outside eating area with BBQ was better than expected/realized. The entire place looked newly renovated. The bay was great - just plan your water activities there according to the tide, because at low tide there is no water. Great location travelling to Madeira Park and Sechelt or beyond. We are looking forward to returning in the future.

We had an amazing time here! Such a beautiful location! And Billy & Shelly made the most of the location with how they renovated the home to be the perfect AirBnB. There were also so many little touches & amenities that were greatly appreciated (treats, wine, plenty of coffee & tea, fishing gear, linens, etc). Everything was well stocked that you might need (not the barebones feeling like some other properties). Another cool thing that other hosts should take note of is their use of a tankless hot water system; more energy efficient while providing guests as much hot water as they need. (Don’t rent a place where only one guest can have a shower per evening. 😅)) They have obviously been guests elsewhere, because it shows in the way they host. Shelly was also very helpful & responsive with her communication. There were a couple minor (and unavoidable) maintenance things due to the weather that they immediately addressed (in under an hour). And then they gifted us a little tackle

We loved Arbutus Cove Retreat so much, we stayed twice in one week! The perfect place to relax between Powell River and Desolation Sound adventures. Will definitely be back!

Kirsten's home was gorgeous. We loved gazing out at the ocean, the big jetted tub and wandering the beach below the property.

We had a magical stay at the Beach House. Being able to walk barefoot right onto the beach was so special to us. When it rained we were still able to open the panel of patio doors to maximize our time with the beautiful landscape. Just a stunning place to stay. The Host was very responsive and wonderful to work with. The space was immaculate, cozy and had everything we needed!

This a stunning home! The view of the beach from the living room and primary bedroom is beautiful. The bathrooms have heated floors. The kitchen has more than enough dishes, glassware and cooking equipment. We loved the pocket doors that opened up to the patio, enjoyed many meals outside and sat around the fire pit. The beach is just steps away and our dog had the best time! A basket full of beach towels is provided. Comfy blankets and pillows on the couch. The only critique we had was noise from connected units. Doors banging shut, footsteps on staircases, all seemed to shake our unit and disrupt the peacefulness of the location. Maybe that’s just to be expected though as the units are connected and on stilts. Regardless of the noise, we’d 100% return here!

We have had an amazing time! The place was stunningly beautiful with views and location to match. Darrell and Cheryl were the perfect hosts always ready to help when needed and gave us many ideas and options to visit and places to have a meal. My family and I had the most amazing time chilling on the beach and going to waterfalls but most of all just to relax in a beautiful spot and home. We will definitely be back. Thank you so much too you both. Until next time!

Amber was a great host. Beautiful location right on the water. Gorgeous views and plenty of wildlife. Would highly recommend.

had an amazing stay in campbell river.

The apartment had everything we needed and we felt right at home. The kitchen was well equipped, everything was well labelled and Andrea even had “kid” dishes so it suited us perfectly. There is a dishwasher which was great:. The place was tidy and clean. We had meals outside and enjoyed the view from the patio. The kids enjoyed the small outdoor pool which was heated. There is access to a marina from the property but no beach. Andrea was very communicative and responsive. She answered questions about the unit when needed and was helpful to provide local recommendations for beaches and things to do. We arrived late at night in the pitch dark but Andrea’s instructions to find the unit were helpful and much needed as there were no signs indicating any unit numbers that we could see. Overall it was a great stay and I would recommend Andrea’s apartment to anyone exploring Halfmoon Bay!

We had a girl's weekend in Lynne's lodge and it was perfect. The space was so beautiful and stocked with everything we needed. Lynne was an excellent communicator and was so accommodating. Her flexibility about checkin and out times due to a snow storm made the whole experience stress free. What a beautiful and unique space to make beautiful memories ok our getaway.

Another great stay. Such a peaceful place.
