*** NOTE: We normally don't accept exchanges from October to March due to wet/cold weather conditions. See more details below ***

A rustic 1970s gothic framed cabin set on a large open property with a fire pit and kids playground. The cabin has three bedrooms, two with queen beds and the other with a kids bunk bed. There is one bathroom with a tub and washer/dryer. The living space has tall ceilings with a wood stove, dining table and open kitchen with an island. There are patio doors leading to a big deck where you can feel the ocean breeze and catch glimpses of the water through the trees.

The cabin has been slightly updated over the years. There is electricity, heat, wifi and potable running water. But like most places on the Gulf Islands, we are on a community well and private septic. In the summer, the place keeps warm and cools down to the right temperature at night. In the winter, the wood stove keeps us warm and dry.

Outside we have a large firepit, picnic table, hammock (in summer) and a kids tree fort with swings and a slide. Our property is fairly flat with a large grassy space in the front. The Gulf Islands are hilly, but we are lucky to be in a walkable and popular neighborhood called Bennet Bay.

*** In shoulder seasons and winter, there is a high chance of wind storms, power outages and ferry cancelations. Further, cabin is heated by a wood stove, so can be very cold until things heat up. If you are experienced with handling such weather uncertainties / risks and are okay to pay a fee to replace the wood used, happy to chat. ***

What you will love about this neighborhood

Bennet Bay is a popular destination on the island. While much of the island is hilly, this neighborhood is easily walkable and has many beach access points. There is a national park and a large sandy beach nearby. One of the few island restaurants is down the road. Good food and ocean front patio makes for a nice lunch or dinner out.

Additional information

We have two kayaks that can be walked down to the water. We also have a trampoline (Springfree with net)

Children are welcome. We have a crib, baby seat, stroller and toys stored at the cabin.

We are open to dogs, as long as they are kept under control at all times. Our property has no fencing, with all sorts of wildlife roaming around throughout the day.

$120 cleaning fee will apply. If you bring your own bed linens and towels, we will reduce this to $60.

Absolutely no smoking anywhere in or near the cabin.
