Garden cottage

Amongst the trees, away from it all and at the end of a long private driveway sits Garden Cottage; even though you feel completely secluded you are close to the ocean, parks, maybe stop by one or all of the many gourmet farm stands in the area, just enjoy the deck and the trees or in 18 minutes be at the famous Saturday market and all that Ganges has to offer.

Girlfriend Getaway

This property was perfect for our weekend getaway with friends. Private, yet located as a cottage on a stunning property, it had a wraparound deck with forest views from all windows. Kitchen was small, yet well-appointed and furniture and beds were very comfortable! We appreciated the wood-burning fireplace and logs & kindling that were left for us. Owner also came by with extra cushions for outdoor furniture. Owner was respectful of our privacy, yet communicative when appropriate. The location was a bit remote which suited us just fine, but was still about 10-15 minutes away from the Saturday Market and town centre. Overall, a quaint, super-clean, cottage which we would 100% book again.

Lovely area and surroundings

The cabin was very clean and nice, and having a fire in the fireplace in the evening as the sun went down was delightful. Michael the host was quick to respond and otherwise in the background, perfect. All in all a very good experience.

Great secluded cottage

The cottage was wonderful. In the trees with a great deck. The bed was comfortable and the cottage was just as described. It’s a very steep gravel drive up to it, as a warning. It’s close to Ruckle Provincial Park and not far from Fulford also (by car). Takes about 20-25 minutes to get into Ganges.

We loved staying here. It was the perfect place to spend a long weekend. The cottage was clean, peaceful, and equipped with everything we needed. The host was extremely welcoming and responsive to any questions we had. Morning coffee/tea out on the deck was the highlight for sure!

Cabin in the woods

Peaceful with the beauty of nature all around us. The cabin was clean and fully equipped to meet our needs. If you are looking for rest and relaxation, walks in the woods and a nice cozy fire at night, this is the spot.

Beautiful property and so clean!

There was some miscommunication and assumptions made between the owner and ourselves, when it came to having a pet and when it came to the breakfast option. The owner also did not answer (ignored?) the question I posed three times in VRBO messaging about whether any discounts were available but answered my other questions. And lastly, there was no toilet paper in our cabin and so we had to text the owner to bring some over and that text was made late in the evening and not the best for the owner or for us. When the owner came to drop off the TP, my dog was on the couch, and the owner was visibly displeased and had to say to me “dogs are not allowed on the furniture.” I felt terrible, even though we had put a towel down, it was the reprimand/tone (we were paying $438/night) that felt offside. Otherwise so very clean and really lovely place.

Garden Cottage

Beautiful and clean property. Two lovely bedrooms, perfect for 2 couples or family. Huge deck with 2 sets of table and chairs. Only negative thing in my opinion is that the cottage is 19 km from the Ganges area where most of the shopping, groceries and restaurants are. Other than that, it was all good.

Secluded Getaway

We loved staying at the cottage, the only sounds that we heard were birds chirping in the trees. We were able to use the kitchen and relax having our breakfast and dinner on the outside deck. Watching the bunnies and birds from the deck was peaceful, and the stars, oh my, so many. Would definitely recommend the cottage to anyone who wants a peaceful get away.
