Our Happy Place

This is our second Easter in a row staying here and we just love it. We always look forward to staying here - it's such a cozy, peaceful and beautiful place. Nothing beats that view! The hosts are very friendly and add special little touches to the cabin that make it all the more special. It's also nice we can bring our dig :)

lovely oceanside with hottub retreat

This was such a nice little cottage - out of the way, quiet, private (I think we happened to be the only ones on the property for the most part), well appointed, clean, and the hot tub was great.

Cozy oceanfront cabin

Perfect little cabin for our family. It was a nice safe place for our kids to run around and explore. It would be great if there was a fence, trees or something to create a bit more privacy between the two cabins, We would love to book again!

Property is in a great location, little hard to find initially. Our only knock is the beds in the room with 2 singles, they could be more comfortable.

Would definitely stay here again

My husband and I together with my elderly parents stayed at this delightful cottage for a week. The cottage is located in a friendly, quiet neighbourhood close to walking trails and the beach. Everything was clean and all the essentials were provided. We had an issue with the wifi on day 4 and the owners were quick to remedy the problem. We couldn’t have enjoyed more.

What a wonderful place! It is so cozy and is right on the ocean front making for a lovely, relaxing vacation. It is close to parks, beaches and wineries, and also...the views from the cabin are incredible! Can't beat it. The hosts were very friendly and communication was easy and efficient.

Comox Retreat By The Water

My wife and I had a wonderful 10 day stay at this retreat by the water. Our granddaughter had a great time playing on the beach when the tide was out. The view of the mountains across the water was very calming.

Heaven

There is a very peaceful vibe to this property. Our days were determined by the tides and the calls and songs of several different birds. We sat on the chairs and stared at the ocean. The cottage has all you may need. It was spotless and communication with Rosalie was super easy. Book it!

Relaxing escape

The cabin is very homey and comfortable. Great location. Beach is very rocky but when tide is out there are lots of walkable areas. Very peaceful and quiet. Enjoyed our stay in spite of smokey skies from forest fires in USA, would definitely come back.

About the host

Hosted by Rosalie Crofford

Host profile image
We have lived in the Comox Valley most of our lives and owned this property since the early 1960's. In 2012 the cottage was rebuilt from the foundation up so it is new, modern, comfortable and a great place to relax and unwind. We wanted to share it's beauty.

Why they chose this property

We love and appreciate nature, quiet, the ocean, the mountain views and above all privacy therefore this was the perfect property for us, which we now wish to share with others.

What makes this property unique

The views, sound of the ocean lapping on the shore, watching the wildlife and cruise ships (in season) go by along with the peace and serenity make this an enjoyable place to kick back.
