A modern cozy cottage in your own wooded backyard located mid Vancouver Island.

Come visit Qualicum Beach located on beautiful Vancouver Island, Canada.
Rest and enjoy in your own private suite and patio; semi attached to back of main house residence. Nestled within a 2 1/2 acre lot, surrounded by woods, hiking /bike trails, creek and a pond. An oasis in nature but close to town amenities, golfing and minutes away from the beach.
-All linens, bath & beach towels, laundry, Netflix & 58" TV, fast 500Mbps WiFi, gas BBQ, ample private parking included and has a keypad entrance. Unfortunately due to local ordinance we can no longer offer a stove but have provided a dual hot plate and large toaster oven.

Beautiful Cottage and Great Location!

Very clean and comfortable accommodation in a very quiet neighbourhood. Geraldine was great to deal with and everything was as advertised. We were visiting family in the area during our stay, who, after seeing the cottage, said they would be recommending it to other guests that came out to visit them. We will definitely stay again!

Excellent cottage

My family (two adults, two kids) thoroughly enjoyed our three nights. The cottage was well stocked, fresh and very clean, with beautiful patio area backing on forest. Evenings were super peaceful. We appreciated the delicious lemon loaf on arrival, it was a short drive to town and beach. Check in was easy, and we would definitely come back!

The bar was set high! This place exceeded our expectations. The host thought of everything. We were happy to find a cooler to pack our lunch as we headed out to explore the area. Check in was easy, directions were easy too. We highly recommended this accommodation!

The Perfect Vacation Rental!

Geraldine’s suite is the PERFECT place to relax while on vacation. What an absolutely beautiful spot to stay. It was quiet, comfortable and spotlessly clean. Geraldine & her family were so kind and helpful. We had the best stay and I would come back again whenever visiting the Island. Thank you, Geraldine!

Beyond the Expected

Anyone looking for a great stay on Vancouver Island should consider this wonderful place. Located on quiet cut de sac up against a forest, this cottage is outfitted with all the comforts of home, i.e., complete kitchen, modern appliances, comfy beds, and clean as a whistle. The hosts we're prompt and cooperative in permitting me to charge the electric car overnight, which was a big help. Loved it!

Qualicum Beach Cozy Cottage - everything as expected

3 adults stayed here for 7 days to rest, play some golf and tennis, and to just explore the area's hikes and markets. You are a short ride from the beaches, if that is the reason for your visit, but there are other things to do as well. The cottage is comfortable and has what is needed. Thank you Geraldine and Kris.
