You'll see many people use the word "magic" in their review of this place - and we agree. You really can't get much better than this. An incredible view, amazing house with such intentional design and lovely owners. We spent several days just hanging out in the house because of its beauty and relaxing energy. Pender Island is awesome, offering great kayaking, hiking, and beauty all around. The area has all the basics you need - a food store, pharmacy, locally owned coffee shops and bakeries, roadside produce stands, and art galleries - while still providing remoteness and seclusion. This house is on south Pender Island, which is the least developed portion of the island, so you really feel like you have your own private getaway. For anyone worried about renting a place while the owners are living in the carriage house - you have complete privacy, and they give you all the space you need. This is a gem which we will be coming back to!
