Cannot beat these views, even from inside. Perfect location if you want a low-key, chill vacation. So many comfortable places to sit outside and see wildlife and hear the ocean. Close to Chemainus and ladysmith where we had lunch and explored the towns. Oh and the couch reclines.

Pictures don’t do this beautiful property justice—everything was perfect, and the location is exceptional! Having my morning coffee while watching the seals go by was the perfect start to my day. The check-in process was super easy, and Sue, the host, was so kind and welcoming. Don’t hesitate to book this gem—you won’t be disappointed!

Amazing Stay

Its truly a luxury experience. This place has everything you need for a relaxing getaway and more. The location near the water is unbeatable. The view is amazing especially coupled with gas firepits, or real wood firepit on the lower level. We had a wonderful time here 2nd time and would book again.

Amazing get away!

This private little cabin was better than we had hoped for. The cabin was beautiful and new, clean and beautifully furnished. The best part about it was the view and the amazing ocean breeze. There are little patios and nooks going down to the ocean. It was the perfect, romantic get away and we can’t wait to visit again!

Couldn’t ask for more

Everything advertised about this stay was underrated. This place gets 10 of 10 stars. It ticked off every box and became the peaceful joyful getaway that one dreams about. The great weather and stunning sunrises and full moons on cloudless nights added to the mystique. Thank you Sue for providing a wonderful stay.

Peaceful and relaxing.

We had a lovely stay and will recommend Sunrise to friends & family. The area is nice and quiet and the view is amazing! There's nothing like watching the sunrise with a fresh cup of coffee from the living room or the sea wall. A lot of thought and care went into this rental, you can feel it all around.

Glorious 6 day stay at Sue's beautiful property which is right on the ocean with luxurious and private accommodation. Lovely Sue was there to greet and welcome us upon arrival. Quick drive to Chemainus, Ladysmith and Duncan were fun to explore too. Our overall stay was fabulous and will definitely want to stay again!
