Our family of three stayed for 5 nights at the Seaview cottage and we had a wonderful time. The cottage is perfect for 3-4 people and was very well equipped with comfortable beds and all the kitchen supplies you might need, including a great nespresso machine. The hosts provided fresh eggs, fresh baked focaccia and some local cider as a welcome gift - all very delicious!
The outside deck at the cottage was very comfortable and had heaters and a fire pit for cooler nights.
The lower deck is a very short walk across the road and is a lovely spot in the morning and evening. It is shaded all afternoon which is nice on a hot day but our weather was quite mild so we preferred the lower deck to start and end the day. Water shoes are necessary to access the water as the rocks are covered in sharp barnacles. We found the water quite calm and it was easy to paddle board right from the beach. Every evening we saw some sort of sealife including a family of otters out for a swim, curious seals and some whales jumping and splashing out in the channel.
The farm stand is so convenient and has delicious baked goods, cold drinks (kombucha and iced coffee) and fresh eggs if you run out.
We highly recommend the seaview cottage if you are visiting salt spring for a few days! The location is nice and close to Ganges though nothing on the island is very far!
