Well you definitely need a car to get there and there's unreliable cell service, but otherwise this place is wonderful. The space is small but has everything you need for simple meals (also there was a bbq outside) and doesn't feel cramped, and I found it perfectly clean. You have an ocean view out your window where you fall asleep to the sound of the waves and wind, a beautiful lookout with campfire setup only steps from the cottage, and a hot tub only steps in the other direction. It's about 25 min drive from Sooke, and French Beach and the Juan de Fuca Trail are nearby, as well as a couple of cafes/restaurants. I explored the Juan de Fuca, Sooke Potholes, and East Sooke Park and loved all of it! Wish I could come back soon!
