Description from owner

Description

This lovely, quaint, self contained cottage is nestled on a partially treed, south sloping half acre.

Views from the cottage are to the south over a beautiful bird sanctuary lagoon, and east over Juan de Fuca Straight. A short walk down a treed lane takes you to the sandy log covered beach where you can walk for miles.

Beachwood cottage is fully furnished, impeccably clean, independent accommodation, with full kitchen and bathroom facilities. The 750 square foot cottage is the only dwelling on the property. It offers one bedroom with french doors opening to the private yard. A daybed located in the front room can sleep an extra guest, or is simply a lovely place for an afternoon nap.

The cottage, originally built in the 1920s, and updated recently, is nestled on a secluded South sloping half acre of waterfront property, conveniently located just 15 kilometres from downtown Victoria. Whether you are sitting on the dock enjoying the sunrise, lounging in the cozy front living room watching the birdlife, or relaxing in the adarondak chairs on the front lawn; every aspect of the cottage is close to nature and provides a unique opportunity to enjoy the very best of what the unspoiled beautiful West Coast of British Columbia has to offer. Watch a tremendous array of wildlife, including resident swans nesting on the lagoon shore, river otters eating their crab dinner on the dock, and even the occasional whale passing in the distance.

The peaceful and serene lagoon is a designated bird sanctuary which is host to a vast variety of bird species including eagles, blue herons, king fishers, with seasonal visits from osprey, bufflehead ducks and so many more.

One spacious bedroom with french doors opening to your private yard, daybed in the front room for your afternoon nap, and an outdoor shower that is private and hot.

Getting around

A car is recommended here. However, there is a limited bus service and we have had guests stay and rely on the bus. We have also had guests stay and use bikes for transportation. Neither are fast or easy, but with great attitudes and the right mindset they enjoyed the whole experience.

Interaction with guest

I will likely greet you on arrival but you won't likely see me again during your stay. I'm happily available by phone any time to answer questions or help you navigate your vacation.
