1-of-a-Kind Oceanfront Tiny-house! Private Retreat on 2 Wooded Acres!

Serenity and relaxation at its finest. Our newly renovated, lovely little 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom tiny-house beach house overhangs the shoreline and backs onto two acres of rainforest. Watch families of seals playing right in front of you, groups of swans and solitary herons gliding by as you sit on the window bench with the front windows open.

Truly a magical place. Great for everything from writers seeking inspiration to families wanting some quality time together.

The beautiful new wood cook stove provides an added feeling of comfort and relaxation for those days you want to cozy up inside. When the sun is shining bright, explore the 2 acres of gorgeous cedar forest or go for a paddle in our two-person kayak. For total relaxation at the end of the day, enjoy our brand new steam shower (with infrared lights for extra health benefits), and then kick back on the large deck for a BBQ.

A great place to unwind, get some fresh air and reconnect with priorities. You'll never want to leave...

Absolutely as described- beautiful!!!
Our month long stay in the tiny house was a most enjoyable time. The accommodation (tho’ tiny) was impeccably clean and comfortable. So nicely located to enjoy golf (Arbutus Ridge, Chemainus and Cowichan Lake), hiking trails especially Quarry Park in Cobblehill and the in the local community park. The nearby restauraunts and wineries ( esp Cherry Hill) were all great experiences. The only caution I might suggest is that the steep grade down to the house might prove a challenge for any one with even mild/moderate mobility issues.. Definitely recommend parking at the first level (as Kim suggested) esp if you have a large vehicle. Otherwise, we highly recommend a get away at the tiny house in Mill Bay. You’ll adore the scenery, ambience and hospitality.

Simply Unsafe
The Mini-house advertised through VRBO at Mill Bay BC was very much as pictured and described in the ad: a picturesque setting, on the water facing south with a small but full kitchen, laundry and bath with two bedrooms.However, in November when originally enquiring about a 5 week rental, (January – February) it was mentioned there were issues with the furnace but that they would be fixed well before our chosen dates and there was a wood burning stove, which my wife and I are comfortable with. On arrival, in January, the furnace was not working, and the kitchen tap only had a dribble of brown water. We lit the wood stove and the house filled with smoke because the gaskets were burnt out and in totally unsafe condition. The owner then told us where to find two space heaters. Great. But, if we plugged both in the breaker would trip, one had a cord that would heat up after an hour or so and the other had a frayed cord that we were afraid to leave on when we were sleeping. It took five days for technicians to arrive and repair the woodstove and kitchen faucet. The furnace inspection (not repair, just inspection) couldn’t happen until the third week of our 5 week winter rental period, so clearly nothing had been repaired in the 2 months prior despite being assured it would be fixed before we got there. We cancelled and left after 8 days. Although this home is in a lovely setting, the owner is thousands of miles away and there are no local maintenance people looking after the house. There was no one who seemed to really care about the quality of our stay let alone ensure personal safety, and certainly no one ready to actually respond to serious issues. Simply Unsafe. The owner was accommodating in giving us at least a partial refund.

Location, location, location! The view from the deck and windows of this Tiny House is an ever changing panorama of sea, sky, boats and wildlife - deer, raccoons, seals, otters, herons, ducks, geese, quail and even a mink! Well equipped kitchen and a great grill outside! Owner available to answer any question you may have.

Million dollar location and views.
My husband and I were very fortunate to spend 5 weeks at this amazing location. The cabin was very comfortable. Nice beds, all appliances are great and the steam shower brilliant! Our hosts were attentive and pleasant to talk to. We hope some day we can visit this special place again.

Amazing ocean front property
What a beautiful spot! The view is amazing, and such peace and quiet. Kayaking in the bay with the seals was pretty cool too. Strip mall and resteraunts about a quick 5 minute drive away. 20-25 minutes to Victoria. You have everything you need here.
