Sit Back & Watch Waves at Rathtrevor Cottage
Imagine retreating to your own little cottage on Rathtrevor Beach. Your own little paradise where the ocean is steps away from your garden patio.
Encompassing the best of island living, this one bedroom, fully equipped cottage is situated only steps away from Parksville's most popular beach, and just a short 5-minute drive to shopping, great restaurants and all that the Oceanside community is famous for.
Upon arrival you will discover this little cottage tucked away in the secret garden, and your senses will come alive with the ocean breeze combined with the quiet and tranquility of this seaside community.
Inside you will immediately feel at home. The open floor plan encompasses a light filled living room, dining area and the perfect kitchen for all your vacation needs. A separate bedroom welcomes you with a queen sized bed perfect for one or two guests.
Take a quick stroll to the front of the property and you will immediately be swept away by the expanse of Rathtrevor Beach and the views of the surrounding islands.
Only mere minutes from your front door is Rathtrevor Provincial Park where you can hike through the 347-hectare park featuring two-kilometre long stretch of sandy beach, a stand of majestic old-growth Douglas fir trees, beautiful ocean sunsets and an inviting, wide sandy beach. At low tide the ocean recedes almost a kilometre and when the tide rolls in over the sunbaked sand, the warmed water is unbeatable for swimming and saltwater fun.
In the spring when large numbers of seabirds congregate for the annual herring spawn. During February, March, and April, Rathtrevor Beach is also one of the best spots on the Island to view the migrating Brant geese.
