Perfect for a Moms getaway

The check in was super welcoming and they had a fire going in the fireplace for us on arrival. The place was very clean, and stocked with anything and everything we needed. It’s a beautiful property with gorgeous ocean views. Lots of natural light and surprisingly quiet given that it’s on the main road. I will definitely return.

New Year’s visit with 4 adults and 2 kids

A great cabin with everything you need for a comfortable stay with a family. Getting in and out of the driveway with the car can be a bit challenging but otherwise a perfect stay. The house is well stocked and the hot tub was great. Clean and easy to check in

This property is perfect

We wanted to show our French exchange student a little slice of Canada. This property exceeded our expectations. We arrived to a warm glow up a magical staircase. The decks and hot tub were beautiful and the house was beautifully appointed and spotless. Every detail was charming. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

So beautiful

What a special space. Gorgeous property, beautiful interior, great fire. Lights around the stairs were a magical touch :) Only issue was it was raining a lot and there’s no covered area to keep towels or other things dry on the hot tub deck… but we made do!

Enjoyed a wonderful family vacation relaxing, playing games, puzzles and spending time together in the hot tub. Large kitchen to cook together and cozy fireplace to keep you warm. Pet friendly accommodation but is on a busy road with only partial fencing.

Beautiful Cozy Cabin on the Coast

We had a wonderful 3-night stay at Handsome Dan’s at Otter Point over New Years weekend. The location was perfect for day trips exploring the west coast. The cabin was very comfortable, well-appointed and just plain gorgeous. We had everything we needed to prepare meals in the large kitchen and greatly enjoyed the hot tub. It was an extra bonus that it’s a pet-friendly rental and our pup felt right at home!

My husband Steve, cousin Theona and her hubby, Milton and our two small dogs stayed at this lovely log cabin last week. We had a wonderful time. The cabin was very well equipped with everything you need in your kitchen. There was lots of room inside and the hot tube was a bonus. We would definitely go back again. Thank you France and Dan👍😁

As log cabins go, this one is ok, a bit tired in parts, 2 broken recliners in the lounge, work tops in kitchen need updating and we weren’t fans of the spiral staircase and the bedroom doors, but, overall it’s ok

Hands down best cabin ever

This property had all what we needed, I wish I knew there was a waffle maker. It had probably more cooking utensils then other properties I have stayed and were in good shape, my only regret was not staying a extra day. Communication with Dan was great , my dogs were comfy and slept infront of the fireplace .
