About the host

Host profile image
We are a family with kids who fell in love with Texada on a short visit.

We love ocean views and this cozy log cabin was the perfect fit! We love that this island has a real sense of community, but also is a perfect getaway from the city and a place for memories to be made. A place for recharging one's senses and where people are real and super friendly! We hope to share this island experience with you.

Why they chose this property



Here's our Video!

Unbeatable views on Texada from this cabin.
Best location on the island - Gillies Bay!
Convenient to everything there is!
Waterfront! With miles and miles of beach during low tide in the summer.
Great for stormwatching in the fall and winter (lower rates and min nights)
Create memories here! Relax and unwind!

What makes this property unique

Waterfront. Your almost private beach in front. Best on the island, we dare say! Doesnt get better than this! The view is simply stunning.

We have a bbq so you can grill all year.
We are super close to the Grocery Store!
Fluffy white towels.

Unlike a lot of vacation rentals on the island where owners live in it and rent out a portion of their house for income, walls are thin! Well, we dont live on premise, so you have total privacy!

We have a Keurig K-Café Single Serve K-Cup Pod Coffee, Latte and Cappuccino Maker, with Milk Frother and a regular coffee maker. Bring your kcups and milk but regular coffee is provided!
