Peaceful and beautiful

The best place I’ve ever stayed in my life! There is everything you need there.You can see sea lions swimming from inside of the house everyday, you can pick oysters and clams right in front of the house, we loved chilling at the front yard watching ocean. Our main purpose to stay there was to relax, and it was perfect.

4-Day weekend

We had a great time staying at the house. The wildlife out the back door was incredible. The kids loved playing in the rocks and around the corner at the sandy beach. The location is central for the North side of the island. We spent a day in Tofino and another day up near Port Hardy. Thank you!

Beautiful Spot on the water

We had a short stay here in February, with 5 adults and a 3 yr old. Great property, simple but clean and charming beach house, and beautiful natural environment with migrating birds, seals and sea lions in abundance. Would love to go back in the summer months.

Wonderful Beach house!

My family and I loved our stay at the beach house - it’s in a central location on the island to many hikes and attractions. There were days that we just hung out and found sea shells, walked along the private beach, watched seals and went paddle boarding (we rented an inflatable paddle board for the week). The property was clean and the kitchen well stocked with everything we could need for cooking.

Great spot for families

We stayed here for over a week with our 5 and 7 yr old kids. It it was a great spot for them as they could play on the beach right in our backyard. There is a sandy beach with morning sun a short walk from the house. We had a small issue with the shower, and Joan was very quick to respond and it was fixed within hours. Definitely recommend this spot.

Großartiges Ferienhaus

Das Haus war für uns 6 ein wunderbarer Ort, um Urlaub zu machen. Es liegt ideal, um von Campell River bis Nanaimo alles zu erkunden und ist groß genug für 6 Erwachsene. Alles war sehr sauber und ordentlich und vor allem war es hervorragend ausgestattet. Vom Schälmesser über genug Pfannen, Töpfe, eine Musikbox, Handtücher, vielen Spielen etc. war wirklich alles da. Geweckt wurden wir immer von den Seelöwen, die vorm Garten hin und her schwammen und jeden fast jeden Morgen konnten wir einen Adler im Baum nebenan beobachten. Wir würden diese Unterkunft auf jeden Fall sofort wieder buchen.

Beautiful Spot

We had a fantastic time while visiting the area. The location of this property cannot be beat - quiet street, right on the water with seals and ducks swimming by all day. The house was clean and well stocked and all communication with the owner was efficient. We hope to return again soon!

So relaxing

This is the second time staying at this deep bay beach house and we loved it just as much as the first time in 2019! We have two kids ages 6&9 and they have so much fun with the basketball net, games and puzzles and just a quick few steps from the beach. It is great sitting in the kitchen, living room or master bedroom with the view from the big widows. This is just a short ferry ride from home so we will definitely be staying here again in the future. Secluded and something for everyone. Thank you so much Joan!

Needs some attention to cleaning details but amazing location.

The property location was outstanding. The cleanliness of the linens, counters, under beds was not so good. General attention to the bathroom plumbing is needed and the bathroom fan was thick with dust. There wasnt any instructions on how to operate the TV, there wasnt any compost bags and ran out of coffee filters ….those little details add up. The bed was very comfortable but glad that I brought my own linen.

About the host

Hosted by Joan Miller

Host profile image
Our lives away from the Beach house are very active. As Realtors we feel that this property is one of the best ocean front properties on Vancouver Island and spend as much time there as possible. The house is shared and enjoyed by family, extended family and friends and many memories have been made in this home away from home.

Why they chose this property

We wanted a place for our children to spend quality time with their grandparents and cousins and enjoy the magical and mystical Deep Bay Spit. Wildlife and ocean life come alive and many hours are spent boating, beachcombing and swimming.

What makes this property unique

The house has been completely renovated with a new kitchen, bathroom, appliances, & furniture package.
