    Beautiful location in the countryside, with friendly welcoming hosts. Very close to the ocean and the house was a calm retreat for us.

    I really like the location of the home in a very quiet suburb in the countryside. It was just a few minutes to the beach so it was lovely to go in the morning and evening to see the change of tides. Having breakfast on the balcony watching the...

Gary and Kathy- We will endeavour to make your stay as pleasant as possible.
Relax at this beautiful and peaceful adult-only getaway. Enjoy the beach which is just a three-minute walk away, local wineries, nearby hiking trails, and the quiet of this wooded 1-acre property. Situated between the ocean and Hof Park, Sea and Cedar Retreat offers everything you need to unwind. The clean, newly renovated house features two luxurious king-sized beds, one upstairs and one downstairs, one bathroom upstairs with a shower/tub, a full kitchen, a small, scenic balcony, a backyard patio with a barbecue, and 2 smart TVs. Although the house can accommodate 4 adults, with only one bathroom, it is more comfortable for 2 people. The stairs also make it unsuitable for individuals with mobility issues.
Please feel free to contact Gary or Kathy if you need anything or if you have any questions or concerns during your stay. The numbers are provided in the Guidebook binder in the living room. We feel very fortunate to live in such a beautiful setting on Vancouver Island and look forward to sharing it with you.
Surrounded by cedar, fir, and maple trees, the house is located on a quiet, rural cul-de-sac. There are walking trails and a public beach just a few minutes walk away. It is a great area for walking, biking, and hiking. The house has a private driveway that can easily accommodate 2 vehicles.
