My Mum and I stayed at Nancy's cottage near Ruckle Park, and it was amazing! Nancy was a great host. She quickly responded to all communications, and she even brought me an additional duvet. Her husband made us freshly baked scones, as well! The cottage itself is beautiful and completely private. There is an expansive deck that looks out on a serene meadow. It is completely private, and it provided a wonderful respite from the busyness of city life. I would highly recommend staying at Nancy's cottage. I visit Salt Spring Island with my partner one to two times per year, and this place ranks right up at the top!
