An absolute healing and wellness Oasis! The Boathouse Cottage was a perfect long weekend get away for us. I was training to race Victoria 70.3 half Ironman in the coming month and the location was just outside Victoria, close to the ironman race course for easy back and forth training. Nestled in a peaceful community on the waters of Portage Inlet, we were able to use the dock out front and bring our paddle boards and enjoy the beautiful views and wildlife. The giant tub was amazing to soak in post ride and run training and the cottage is full of natural light looking on to the water and is cozy and full of cute and quirky touches. The bed was cozy and comfy and the fire place was awesome to tuck in beside on the little couch and read. We enjoyed the giant swings on the patio over looking the water and the gardens! Robin baked us cookies and brought us home made Kombucha!
An added bonus was the option for an on site massage/ reflexology/ reiki and also private yoga classes in Robin and Jim’s home studio and treatment room available inside their home! I enjoyed an amazing recovery massage after cycling and Tom and I had a private IYENGAR yoga session in the studio with the traction ropes and props.
Robin and Jim’s Cottage is a total gem! We can’t wait to return!
