About this property

West Coast Forest Retreat | Private Sauna & Cold Plunge

Step into your exclusive wellness sanctuary at our West Coast–inspired Forest Retreat cabin. Enjoy a locally crafted cedar Nootka barrel sauna and invigorating cold plunge, perfect for unwinding, rejuvenating, and soaking in the peace of your forest surroundings.

Nestled on over half an acre bordering a serene provincial park, our cabin offers the ideal mix of cozy comfort and natural beauty. Relax with a glass of wine by the wood-burning stove, gaze through large picture windows at the towering trees, or step onto the spacious deck to listen to birdsong and the wind rustling through the forest.

A short 5–10 minute walk along a tranquil forest trail brings you to the ocean and provincial park, where you can hike, trail-run, kayak, swim, fish, or simply watch the sun set over the water. Experience the true West Coast “Coast Life” in a private, peaceful setting.

Perfect for large families (up to 10 people) or small, quiet groups (2–4 guests) seeking rest and rejuvenation. We maintain a strictly quiet environment and we apologize we do not host large adult-only groups or bookings for guests in their 20s.

Whether you’re here to relax, explore, or soak in your private wellness area, our cabin offers a tranquil, unforgettable West Coast escape you’ll be reluctant to leave.

We had a fantastic stay at this property. Our kids loved having a bunkbed and the grandparents had their own room to get some rest in. The fireplace was lovely and it was so nice to be out in the woods. We used the sauna basically every day and loved having a nice big area to prep and serve meals. Rob and Rachel were great hosts and very responsive.

We stayed here with two other families as part of a wilderness long weekend. 4 kids under five years old and they all loved it. Friendly owners (and neighbours) and a very nice property that delivered on all of the many perks and amenities. Clear directions and well laid out kitchen with no troubles on our end. My only point would be that the BBQ needed a bit more cleaning than expected but I would have cleaned it no matter what as a matter of course anyway. Smooth check in and check out and we hope to visit again soon.

Amazing cabin in Sunshine Coast! The cabin is extremely clean and has a really great layout! Beaver Island is a really beautiful place to visit with your friends and loved ones! The hosts are very communicative and respond very quickly. They even went above and beyond and helped us return an item that we left there by mistake.5/5 would book again!

Quiet cabin in the woods

Lovely spacious house with comfortable beds. With a few improvements I would have given it 5 stars- curtains in one of the upstairs bedrooms, clean barbecue and frying pans, better equipped kitchen and wine glasses for all. Don’t miss going to the closet beach and walking out to the beacon!

Thanks for the feedback. We just replaced with 8 more wine glasses after your mention, bbq we are going to ad a charge if people don’t clean after use as requested, and curtain rod is repaired in the room it was pulled down from. I am sorry we missed that. Again thanks for the feedback Rob and Rachel

A perfect getaway!

Fantastic! We stayed for 5 days with our son and his 3 kids all under age four. The house was so tidy when we arrived, with lots of comfy beds to choose from. Plenty of room for us to cook together with lots of table room in the dining room. The patio deck was a great place to sit and watch the kids play in the yard. Close to the beach/trails. Rob was a terrific host and we all enjoyed our stay!

Wonderful relaxed vacation time

We were 4 adults on our short vacation. In this house we had everything. The only one problem is a garbage. Statement “ take with you” doesn’t solve the problem. Take where? To Vancouver? The rest was perfect and very comfortable. Thanks Rob.
