About this property
The Enchanted Woods Waterfront Log Cabin at Secret Cove
•A gorgeous rustic 3 bedroom, 1 1/2 bathroom (sleeps 6) year-round waterfront log cabin in pristine Secret Cove. This private home sits on almost an acre of forested property. The forest and waterfront views can be enjoyed from the massive wraparound deck and hot tub. The Enchanted Woods Log Cabin has unparalleled views, a private 60 foot dock, a large wrap round deck, a fully equipped kitchen, spacious indoor and outdoor living areas, a *new* woodstove, an outdoor shower, a hot tub, 2 kayaks and a stand up paddleboard. The third bedroom is entered through the second bedroom, and is ideal for children but works for adults! ****VRBO has recently changed their rental quote system. Please ensure you have been quoted the correct currency and please note that the refundable damage deposit has likely been included in your quote. There is an additional guest fee for more than two guests. Please contact the owner with any questions.**** •The Enchanted Woods Log Cabin is best suited for families or small groups of friends who have a passion for nature and are looking for a quiet, peaceful retreat. Secret Cove is a tidal fjord with amazing bird watching, marine wildlife, kayaking, swimming, and hiking. The property includes a private dock and access to your 2 kayaks, as well as a hot tub and outdoor shower. •The cabin is located 5 minutes (by car) from Homesite Creek Falls hiking trails, the historic Halfmoon Bay General Store, Upper Crust Café in Halfmoon Bay, Rockwater Resort (enjoy an amazing meal and couples massage!), Buccaneer Marina (with a local water taxi and boat rentals), Secret Cove Marina (featuring a floating general store and the Upper Deck floating restaurant in the summer), and the breathtaking Smuggler Cove Marine Provincial Park (accessible by both land and water). Buccaneer Bay Provincial Park (with pristine white sand beaches) is located on Thormanby Island and is accessible by either water taxi or kayak (weather permitting). Past guests have enjoyed activities as diverse as fishing, scuba diving, stand up paddleboarding, golf, mountain biking (Suncoaster Trail Network), caving (Homesite Limestone Cave Trails), cross country skiing/snowshoeing (Dakota Ridge Winter Recreation Area), and triathlon training (amazing local rides and ocean swims – the Sechelt Aquatic and Fitness Centre is only 30 minutes away by bike!) •We are family-owned and operated: our property guidelines reflect these values. If you are looking for an amazing year-round oceanfront retreat in the heart of the Sunshine Coast, we look forward to having you stay with us! *If the Log Cabin is already booked for the time in which you are interested, please see its sister property, the Enchanted Woods Cottage (VRBO 616475).

We loved everything about our stay in the Log Cabin. It was comfortable and well-equipped. The stairs down to the water were wonderful, and it was lovely to have access to kayaks and a paddle board. Even better was the ability to have a warm outdoor shower after an ocean swim along with a relaxing soak in the hot tub. We will be back next summer!
Secret Cove is stunning. The wrap around porch and kayaks were highlights of this property, to fully enjoy the natural environment. It was quite cool to stay in a genuine log cabin. The bedrooms, beds, and bathrooms were clean. The beds were comfortable. The shower was tiny and awkward, but there was an outdoor shower. I was disappointed with the value. For the cost, I anticipated the main living spaces to be more clean and tidy. For example, the dining table had crumbs/dust between the slats (might be an outdoor dining table? ). Some items need replacing- for example, the rug had several loose strings. The hot tub was gross, with an unpleasant odour.
Absolutely fantastic. Extremely comfortable/cool log cabin in a breathtaking setting. Afternoons spent on the deck lounging in the sun after exploring the vast amount of hiking tails accessed right out the door was amazing. Jennifer is a superb host, very helpful and responsive plus she welcomed our 3 dogs. Very highly reccomend checking it out for yourself.

Nice and quiet, everything as advertised. Could have been cleaner.
Host was welcoming and clear and prompt on communication. A variety on amenities in overall fair condition. The secluded location was calm, quiet, and relaxing.
The host was very responsive when I needed assistance. The cabin was very clean and inviting. And the perfect place for a relaxing getaway from our busy city lives.

The owners have a large extended family and have lived in the area since 1974, but recently purchased the Enchanted Woods Log Cabin so they could share this secluded oasis with friends.
