This cottage is genuinely in a class of its own. The location is central to everything being close to trails, shopping, beach and all else the island has to offer. The hosts thought of every detail including locally made scones as a welcome gift. The cottage backs up to a forested area that makes you feel like you’re nearest neighbor is miles away. The cleanliness was impeccable.

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.
