Tickle Cove Boat House

This memorable place is anything but ordinary.
Located on the beach, next to Champneys West aquarium, you can see locals leaving early in the morning to go fishing, while hearing the loons call at night while sitting on the water front deck.

Cross tickle boathouse is located on the beach right next to champneys west aquarium and the fox island trail.

The boathouse is eco friendly with a composting toilet.

Also pet friendly but to VERY SMALL breeds of dogs as you have to carry them up a ladder and the place is tiny, there is also a ($30 pet fee)

There is no WiFi or TV at the boathouse it’s simply ment to come a relax and enjoy the nature and surroundings that beautiful Champneys West has to offer.

What a neat spot! The tiny house had everything we needed, and I love the balcony over the water. Easy to find and such a cool community. Thanks!

The place was just as advertised. The hot water stayed hot if you kept it running. We also enjoyed a clear starry night out on the deck. Saw shooting stars!

Unique for sure. Clean and quiet. Only thing I would say is the stairs up to the sleeping area are difficult for anyone with mobility issues. Just something to keep in mind which we didn’t pick on. Otherwise no complaints at all.

The boat house is a charming and unique stay. I squealed with delight when we came over the hill and I spotted the iconic pink boathouse. The kitchen is well appointed (although we only made coffee). The composting toilet is easy to manage. We didn’t try the shower. The bed is up in the loft and was easier to get to than I thought. We enjoyed chatting with the family and strolling the nearby trail. Watch for beautiful fox in the area too.

The boat house was great! The location is ideal for a quiet getaway, great coffee shop nearby (two whales coffee, YOU MUST GO) Note that there is no heating other than a provided space heater. When we arrived it was about 10 degrees outside and inside felt even colder. Bring slippers! Our toes were freezing walking around the boathouse on that first night. Once the weather got warmer the feel of the boathouse was amazing. You do get a limited amount of drinking / cooking water! In the kitchen, a hot plate is provided as well as a coffee machine and a stovetop kettle. The bed was comfy and cozy, we slept very well. The sunset was amazing! Nicole is great and had let us know she was refilling the water tank outside!
