About this property

**** Guest are required to bring their own (queen size) bedding and towels *** Hornby Island has a fragile eco system and water supply !
Forget your worries in this serene space. Magnificent views and a quiet neighbourhood will give you the downtime you are looking for. A vehicle is required to get around Hornby Island, however we have a general store, restaurant and scenic marina within a 10 minute walk from the studio.

We are ferry dependent so keep in mind the ferry schedule (both Buckley and Hornby Ferries).

The stand-alone studio is attached to the garage building and is 200 ft away from the main house. It has a raised queen size bed so you can take in the ocean view while relaxing in bed. A kitchenette with sink, fridge, microwave, induction cooktop, toaster, French coffee press and dishes is available for you to cook simple meals. The bathroom has a stand up shower.

The studio sleeps only 2 people, however in the summer we can accommodate 1 extra persons (in your own tent and sleeping bags) pitched on the deck or in the forest. There is an extra charge per camper per night - contact host for details.

The studio is equipped with a smart TV (no channels but Netflix, Prime etc are available). Board games and Wi-Fi also included.

The large kitchen window overlooks the spacious deck which has two chaise loungers, table and chairs and barbecue. Here you can enjoy the spectacular ocean and old growth forest views.

Website needs update

The location of the studio is very nice. After we confirmed and paid for the Studio, we got an email stating that we needed to bring our own bedsheet and towel which at that time wasn't on the VRBO website. We walked in a cold studio, the portable heater wasn't turned on when we arrived. Then we found a note on the toilet; " Put nothing in the toilet, toilet paper goes in the trash bin and you need to take your garbage home with you." If we would of known this we would of rent a different place. Travelling around with your garbage is not appealing and not in our vacation plan.
