4 Bedroom Pet Friendly Cottage Quiet Secluded Waterfront Location In Secret Cove

We really enjoyed our stay. The house is not large but its layout comfortably accommodates several people. The setting is beautiful and whimsical. We really appreciated the abundance of firewood for the wood stove which kept the place very cosy. Would definitely return.

It was an amazing and cozy place, we enjoyed the fire pit every day. The children enjoyed it so much that didn’t want leave.

The property was lovely and exactly how it was described. It was cozy, clean, and had everything we needed to relax for a few days. Communication with the hosts was easy and quick. We had a lovely stay and would recommend this space to others.

Property was so cozy, beautiful, and a great place to spend time with loved ones and pets. There are boats, paddles, and water toys if you want to enjoy the water access. A fully stocked kitchen with all equipment you could need. Overall wonderful weekend!

Ian and Jackie’s property in Secret Cove was cozy, comfortable, and delightful. I stayed in the home with some friends in early February and found the rustic setting perfect for walking, gathering around the firepit, and taking a dip in the cove. The location is secluded and private, close to many local attractions and scenic vistas, as well as being a 10 minute drive to Sechelt. I would whole heartedly recommend this property for a either a relaxing and reflective escape, or for a base camp when pursuing adventure and exploration.

Absolutely would recommend staying here. We were a group of 4 ladies, we appreciated each having our own room. Two bathrooms (1 half bath) was a fantastic addition. The kitchen had mostly everything we needed, and was a great surprise that it had a fair amount of condiments ready for us to use. Some places don’t have salt and pepper, but this place had three different kinds of home made jam! Wow. Location is fantastic, not a bad drive out side the downtown core of Sechelt. Right in the trees. If you’re looking for a getaway from the city and some face to face with the wilderness, this place is for you. We enjoyed the Wood stove inside, and the campfire outside. The decor in the yard is eclectic, relaxing and nostalgic. Has a very charming “camp” vibe, and is connected to the main home. We were greeted upon arrival with the instruction to “knock on the door” if we needed anything! Small town charm. I sincerely hope to return. We loved it here. Thank you so much, Ian and Jackie. You truly have a slice of heaven in your hands.

The bed was comfortable and the cottage was well supplied with everything we needed and more. Although there was just 2 of us, there is plenty of space to accomodate a larger group comfortably. We appreciated the peacefulness of the location and the gated deck is a bonus for keeping dogs and children safe.

A really cute place in a beautiful location on the Sunshine Coast. The house was really well equipped, and the kayaks were a terrific bonus -- paddling on Secret Cove was great! Excellent, and very helpful communication from Ian before and during our stay. In short, a terrific experience. Highly recommended!

A special gem of a place, so glad we found it. Excellent location close to everything and a lovely spot in woodland, so quiet and peaceful, a relaxing spot and special to be able to go kayaking in the back garden. Jackie and Ian were great hosts, welcoming and had everything we needed in the place. The banana bread left was a lovely welcome, thank you!

Hosts were really welcoming and accomodating. The property is so charming and cosy and we so appreciated the extra touches, especially the banana bread, jams and the many condiments, spices, teas etc. It's such a well equipped space and we especially enjoyed the access to the inlet and use of the canoe, kayaks and lifevests. Such a beautiful location. Thank you for your quick communication and for enabling us to have such a great family weekend x

Great stay! Cute cottage vibes.

The house had everything we could possibly need and more. We loved being able to paddle in the inlet and enjoy the beautiful sites of the area. Ian and Jackie were very kind.

Great place for our family vacation. Hope to stay here again.

We really enjoyed Ian and Jackie’s house - it had everything we needed and loved access to the kayaks to explore Secret Cove. The homemade banana bread and jam were a wonderful touch.

We love staying here. My kids absolutely loved “the cabin” and didn’t want to leave. Our evening paddle on the inlet was just perfect and I love how everything you could want is included. Also, it’s such a great location - a great spot to explore the whole area

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Ian and Jackie's lovely home. The location is wonderful for exploring (check out Smuggler Cove Marine Park and Big Tree Recreation Area). The suite was the best stocked place we have ever stayed in...we could tell that Ian and Jackie took great care to make sure our stay was comfortable and relaxing. Thank you both for a great time!

Great property and location. We really enjoyed sitting around the fire at night. The home had everything we needed.

The hosts have provided everything needed for a family vacation. The layout includes plenty of space for cooking, eating, playing board games, etc.. From the wood stove in the living room, to the BBQ and fire pit outside, the amenities are all included.

Wonderful, cozy property for a girls weekend!

We loved our time in this beautiful spot. Ian was a great host, the area has beautiful hikes and kayaking. Great way to spend my birthday with my sons.

We enjoyed our fourth visit to this lovely cabin. We appreciated the owners' going above and beyond to replace the oven prior to our arrival, as the older one had malfunctioned.

The property was great and worked well for our needs. The kitchen was well stocked with all of the utensils we needed for our large family meals and the layout of the property was perfect to give us communal time together but also the ability to have alone time.Great spot!

Really great place for a cozy retreat. Such a comfortable setting with everything to accommodate.

Thank you once again for your hospitality Jackie and Ian. A great holiday getaway over New Year's for our family

Mom’s and daughter’s mini vacay that was exactly what we wanted! So very cozy being amongst the trees with a wood burning stove….plenty of dry firewood! A welcoming cottage with everything we needed! Thank you for having us! Hope to be back soon!

We enjoyed the stay and the are , owners are great .

Some places provide the bare essentials. This went way beyond basics and had everything we needed and more. The hosts were very thoughtful including providing a supply of coloured pencils and colouring books. Plentiful supply of cosy colourful afghans and extra towels, including facecloths which are usually forgotten. The setting is lovely. Unfortunately the cool weather meant we didn't get to enjoy the great deck, garden and outdoor eating area. Highly recommended.

Quiet cottage located near the water. Got to kayak and canoe close by and spend time with family playing table games in the evening. Great place to rest and relax. Our dogs loved lounging around and going on some great walks.

From the hosts to the property, everything was fabulous. We were busy everyday with sightseeing, shopping enjoying the beautiful sights and sounds of the Sunshine Coast. We will be planning a return visit. Thank you Jackie and Ian.

What a great experience: the hosts are super friendly, easy to communicate with and quick to respond, the cottage is in a wonderful location and stocked with everything you could think of (kitchen utensils, games, outdoor toys, camping chairs, sunshade). The deck is lovely to have your morning coffee at and the kayaks are fantastic to explore the inlet. The outdoor fire pit is fun for the kids and the indoor stove gives it a lovely ambience. Lots of comfy seating for the whole party, 4 bedrooms to provide enough space for everyone and the EV charger to top it all of - nothing more we could have asked for. We will definitely go back.

Had a great stay. Very quiet and relaxing area . Still close to restaurants and other points of interest. Thanks!!

The host was very accommodating! She was friendly, baked us banana bread and went to work when we were having wi-fi issues. Our accommodations were clean and well appointed. Our friends loved that it was pet friendly.

With a banana loaf waiting for us to the peacefulness of the property. This was the perfect place for a relaxing week. Although there was no view of Secret Cove, It was only a short walk down to it; and with the usage of the owner’s kayaks we were able to discover the whole cove. Being centralized along the coast, we were able see Gibsons one day to watching the tide go out at Skookumchuck Narrows another, to hiking the many trails.

Everyone was super happy with their stay at the cottage. It provided a great place to host a family gathering. Access to the kayaks and canoe for a morning paddle in Secret Cove was super convenient. And its central location made short trips to Smuggler Cove, Skookumchuck Narrows, and Francis Point a breeze. Having an EV charger available was also convenient. Thanks Ian and Jackie!

We really enjoyed our stay! A very cozy cottage, well stocked kitchen and equipment to enjoy the water which is a short walk away. Great location, close to hikes, lakes and shopping for groceries! Definitely recommend.

Me and three buddies stay there for a golf tournament, would highly recommend it. The banna bread they left was delicious.

Charming and quiet getaway - just far enough away from the city. Very friendly and accommodating family hosts, and well stocked property. Highly recommend!

The place was nice. Slightly dated but clean. The hosts were wonderful, very helpful and responsive. And even though they in live on-site, it felt very private. Our only complaint was that the steps down to the water were very hard for the older members of our group. And the waterfront itself wasn't particularly nice. You wouldn't want to hang out there. If you stay here, make sure you visit smugglers cove, which is accessible via a trail a few KMs from this property. Just the most beautiful sight. Stunning.

Beautiful property on the beautiful Sunshine Coast. Water access (inlet) at high tide. Great hosts, easy going.
