A great cottage to stay in. They had everything you would need to cook a meal (spices included) They had extra of everything including beach towels. There was plenty of fire wood and a great fire pit. The road in was rough going in from Duncan so I recommend going in through Victoria and Sooke. There is beach access within half a block of the cottage and it is through a empty piece of land that is beside the bright yellow house and there is a sign that says no camping on the beach. The beach is good place to swim but at your own risk as there are no lifeguards on duty there. The whole town is great and very small but there is no cell service. All in all I would absolutely love to own a cottage just like this one it perfect!
