Welcome to the beautiful rugged West Coast. Home to Tall Tree Music Festival, and Song'nSurf. You will see bald eagles flying around, and loads of humming birds. Just a 5 minute walk to the beach and marina. We are at the end of the cul-de-sac and we are the most private property surrounded by cedars on all sides. Our property is larger than most. The name, A Shack In The Woods was chosen for personal reasons. It is not a shack by any means and we are not totally secluded . A lovely cottage by the sea, built in 2011 with approximately 450 SF. The fire pit area has slate all around and is hidden by the cedars. Firewood is supplied at no charge. Fully equipped kitchen with all the amenities you will need to cook up that great catch of the day! BBQ on the deck that is enclosed, which makes it ideal for your child or pet. The bedroom has a queen size bed with 2 foam topper. You have patio doors to take in the lovely sun that shines all afternoon at the front of the cottage. Ideal for those who love to sunbathe! There is a queen size hide a bed in the living room with a top of the line mattress, without bars. Sheets and quilts are provided. The bathroom has a tub/shower and is supplied with towels, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. There is a table for 4 in the kitchen. Flat screen TV, Netflix and wifi supplied. There are some games to play and some kids toys. A pet bed, dishes, toys and leash are also in the cottage. You will find 4 comfy chairs around the fire pit. Star gazing at it's best! There is loads of parking on the property.
**NEW** January 2022: Brand new propane stove for extra heat and POWER OUTAGES.
Great area for hiking, fishing, crabbing. exploring, swimming, kayaking etc.. Avatar Grove is close by and Botanical Beach is at the end of the roadway, approximately 10 minutes by car. There are three restaurants : Tomi's, The Coastal Kitchen and the Renfrew Pub. You will find a book inside, with all the information you may need. There are fishing charters at the marina that you can hire. There is a very good chance that you will see and hear Killer whales and humpback whales. A fantastic get away from the city. Cozy and romantic, yet ideal for 1 couple, or a couple with kids.
Because Port Renfrew is wild and windy at times, we may experience unforeseen power outages. We have candles inside and a great firepit outside.

    The property was private and quiet. The interior was comfortable and cozy and had everything I needed to enjoy this amazing area. As someone who enjoys the outdoors, there was so much to see and do.

    Very cozy, beautiful area. Loved not having cell service and being a 5 to 10 minute walk from the beach. Karen was very friendly and helpful. Would come back! Thank you

    The cabin was incredibly private and peaceful! This was just what I needed to spend a few days recouping and relaxing. Slept like a rock in the super comfy bed, in fact when I got home it made me realize how many lights were on in my home disrupting my sleep and how I needed softer pillows, I now sleep better at home! Close to a dog friendly beach and all the attractions in the area!! Highly recommend! Karen was an absolute sweetheart, quick at responding and would message me on road updates as I stay between major storms.

    Comfortable and convenient stay to access Botanical Beach and hikes along the coast. Basic kitchen set up, for vacation meals. Slightly annoying there weren't enough coffee filters for the days we stayed, but other supplies were fine. Loved that the porch had a fence/gate, so our fur child could lie in the sun without being tied up. It was a pleasant rental and we'd do it again.

    The cabin located in a vacation home strata, so there are several other cabins in this neighbourhood. Yet, it is private and surrounded by trees. The front deck is a wonderful space rain or shine. The cabin was very cozy and warm. Thank you for sharing your lovely place
