The Cabana is stand alone. There is a private deck space out front approx 200sqft and a shared deck space out front the two Cabanas.

These standalone cabanas feature a loft-style bedroom with sweeping ocean views across to Vancouver and UBC. The main floor includes a cozy living area, modern kitchenette with an induction cooktop, large toaster oven, microwave, and an outdoor BBQ with a side burner.

Great Opportunity

This was a perfect space for one or two people and your pet. Lots of walking trails, beautiful views and tranquil surroundings. Hosts were kind, accessible and creative, even offering supplies to paint the view. Will definitely be coming back!

Bowen Beauty!

We had a great 2 night stay in the wonderful Cabana. Great views of Vancouver and the Seymour Bay. Comfortable and clean. Great outdoor room to have drinks in the evening watching the fishing boats troll the bay. Access to a sauna! The bed mattress with vibration mode was a great surprise and welcome after the 10 km hike.

I loved staying at Blair's home/lodge! It was the most beautiful view and location. And they did a great job adding little touches and keeping things cozy. The place was so clean and thoughtfully furnished/designed. Blair was also so thoughtful and gave us recommendations, attended to our asks always right away. Thanks Blair and Christina!!!
