Every once in a while an Airbnb far exceeds one’s expectations. This would be Soul Reflections. It is an idyllic setting in the forest at the far northern tip of Salt Spring Island with beautiful views across the water to Vancouver Island. The cottage is perfect for two. Simple furnishings with everything provided: good mattress, lovely linens, breakfast essentials, a peaceful outdoor table/chairs for morning coffee and toast, thanks to Jody’s basket of local bread, jam, blueberries, coffee etc. The birds are enjoying several nearby feeders. The dock is a walk down to the water’s edge and a great view of water, sky, birds, sailboats etc.
Jody is a delightful, funny and very helpful host. She recommended a great restaurant for dinner in Ganges and a trio of farm tastings to explore, for local cheese, cider and wine. Checking in and out was a non-event! This is what one hopes every listing would be. A real delight.
