My husband and I were both thrilled with the beauty, comfort and tranquility of this cottage. The inside is spacious, tastefully decorated, and well stocked with quality linens and kitchen supplies. The beds are very comfortable with the choice of soft and firm pillows.The outdoor space is peaceful and relaxing after walking the numerous “backyard trails” in Seal Bay park. Grocery and restaurant options are plentiful in nearby Courtenay and Comox. We hope to come again!

We had a lovely 3-day stay at the cottage. Excellent and prompt communication with the owners. Easy check-in, clear instructions. The cottage is perfectly set up for 4 people, might feel tight with 6 adults. Everything was very clean (and I am picky), great towels and linens, beds were good. Pantry stocked with a few essentials was nice. Location was amazing for us, near our friends and Seal Bay park for walking to the ocean. 10 mins to town. Very quiet area. Would recommend for sure.

Hi Sharlene, in a business where we depend on reviews from our guests, I'm surprised to get an 8/10 review from you. We strive to make our cottage the very best for our guests and if anything was lacking, we would have appreciated feedback during your stay so we could have remedy any situation. I appreciate the contribution to the all missing items, but I have since discovered the sheets are not usable due to the number of pet stains all over them. Our house rules clearly state no pets on linens or furniture, which you knew before booking. In future, if you do rent another short-term rental, I hope you will think about the hosts and the business they are trying to run. This system relies on guest reviews. We have an excellent rating overall and were disappointed to see your review of our cottage.

About the host

Hosted by Andrea Pelly

Host profile image
Hi, we are your hosts, Scott and Andrea Pelly. We are a family of 4 that moved from North Vancouver in August 2021 to this beautiful acreage in the Comox Valley. We love the space our new property provides us. We both like to work in the yard and Scott can pursue his
woodworking passion. We enjoy all the things to do in the beautiful Comox Valley. We had been vacationing here for years skiing and Mountian biking on Mount Washington Alpine Resort and finally decided to call this home.
We welcome you to our cottage!

Why they chose this property

We are located down a short quiet gravel road which gives you the feeling you have escaped city life, yet all the conveniences only a 10 min. drive away. Our property backs onto Seal Bay Nature Reserve with an endless trail system.

What makes this property unique

Our property is unique as we have a trailhead to Seal Bay Nature Reserve beside the cottage. Only steps away from enjoying this park.
