Mystic Cove Peace

The suite that we had exceeded our expectations! The main bedroom was spacious with a very comfortable king bed. The second bedroom was also quite large with a comfortable queen. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils and pots/pans. There is also a full sized fridge and stove/oven. The bathroom is also large with a jacuzzi tub and separate shower. The location of the property is great! You are close to the shore and within walking distance of many trails and restaurants. The yard faced the marina and had a very nice fire pit /bbq area down by the shore. There was also a sauna and hot tub. Our hosts were unobtrusive but were available to answer any questions/ concerns that we had.

Stayed for 5 nights with my college age daughter on a visit to Vancouver Island. This was a nice place with friendly and helpful owners. We really enjoyed our stay even though we couldn’t take much advantage of the marina location like we could have in the summer.

Fantastic girls trip!

My girlfriends from GA came to visit me in WA. They requested we visit Butchart Gardens, so I found this home on VRBO. It was close to the gardens and other amenities. Inside the 2 bedroom unit was very nice, well maintained, and comfortable. The outdoor space down at the dock was awesome (as was the weather)! We totally enjoyed having cocktails, meals, and viewing the sunsets there! My only issue was that the area hadn't been tidied up before our arrival, so we ended up doing some of that ourselves. The owner did come down next day and finished cleaning up fireplace. He was apologetic and brought more firewood down for us. We did wish there was any easier way to get down to the unit (with luggage, groceries, etc) as there are many stairs and a somewhat step driveway. And we are all in our 60's. Overall, it was fantastic and I would rent this property again!

Unbeatable location on the water

We rented out both suites at this property and has family stay in both! The view is stunning as you are literally a stairwell away from the ocean. The dock and kayaks were so accessible and we had so much fun using them to check out the Bay and visit Our other family members down the street. Travel by boat not by car! It’s awesome! The suites were clean and set up nicely- they are attached by a laundry room and since we rented both we were able to visit our family and have breakfast all together. We most definitely will be back to Brentwood bay and recommend this property to all of our family!

private bay access in a quiet neighborhood

Not only does this rental have a beautiful view of Brentwood Bay, it has direct access to a private dock. Inside our 2 bedroom was clean and quiet (there is also a 1 bedroom available). The King size bed was very comfortable, and the kitchen was very well-stocked. The bathroom has good water pressure and a jetted tub which we made good use of. There is a gas fireplace in the main room which goes on and off with a flip of a switch, with wall sconces for reading on the sofa. (It's amazing how many places we've stayed with no reading lights / lamps in the living room for those of us who like to sit and read in the evenings.) Just outside the slider is a deck table and chairs (which is not shared by the other rental unit) which is perfect for sitting with your cocktail and looking at the amazing view of boats bobbing in the bay. There is also a hot tub which we didn't use but looks directly out to the bay as well. The short set of stairs from the rentals lead down to a well-kept private backyard and to the gate and stairs leading to the private dock and small rocky beach. (There is also another table and chairs down there for sitting even closer to the water.) On the dock for the exclusive use of the visitors are SUP boards, kayaks, and two chairs way at the end for sitting and watching the ferry come and go. The place is within a block of 2 good places to eat, and the ferry to take you across the Bay to the main part of the Island. The grocery store is a short drive away, as is Butchart Gardens, which was the reason for our visit. The city of Victoria is less than 30 minutes away. Check in was virtual, but the owners checked in with us via the VRBO site soon after we arrived to make sure we had everything we needed. They also quickly answered our questions via the site. I highly recommend this rental if you are looking for a quiet, clean, central place to explore the East side of Vancouver Island.

Springtime visit

My wife and I planned a trip for both of our mothers, the two of us, and my father for mother's day to spend 4 days together, all from Arizona. Butchart Gardens were the primary activity planned, so this location was optimal. Morning coffee on the waterfront couldn't be better, and the property itself is very new and updated. Heated bathroom floor was a godsend. Extremely nice hosts. Property and location was beyond our expectations. Thank you Sarah and Dallas!

Comfortable, clean and homey

Thank you Dallas and Sarah for sharing your home with us. The suite was so comfortable, clean and had an amazing view. We loved soaking in the hot tub in the evening and seeing the boats in the harbour all lit up for Christmas. We enjoyed the town of Brentwood and the whole surrounding area. It was convenient to Victoria and Sydney. We loved watching the ferry load and unload from our living room. It was so convenient and fun to take the ferry across to Mill Bay and explore the small towns of Cowichan, Duncan and Ladysmith. Dallas brought us a gift basket full of local treats, coffee and wine- so thoughtful. We hope to one day go back and enjoy the suite with the wonderful waterfront in some warmer weather.

About the host

Host profile image
We are a family of four (and a woodle named Jolene) who love sharing our little bit of paradise

Why they chose this property

Mystic Cove is an unique spot on Vancouver island.
Because Brentwood Bay is located deep in Saanich Inlet we enjoy very warm water in the summer for even the most fair-weather swimmers (like my wife). Lots of sea life including jellyfish, seals, otters, octopus, crabs and bc spot prawns.
We have a 200 foot dock with lots of kayaks, paddle boards and other water toys. Paddle to the Butchart gardens or down Todd Inlet.
Sit on the dock and watch the yachts arrive next door at the Brentwood Marina. Enjoy the spa at the marina resort or the pub/ restaurant all only steps away.
There is no experience like Mystic Cove anywhere and we love showing it off.

What makes this property unique

100 year old waterfront fire pit/barbecue like no other. Private beach and dock with paddle boards, kayaks and other water fun. Enjoy the sunsets or watch the boats and marine life from the dock chairs, outdoor fireplace or on your private patio.
