This little cottage was perfect for us. We were able to walk to almost everything. It’s just a short walk down to the water, marina, and just a bit farther to a beach. What we really came for was to be surrounded by nature in Port Renfrew; a picturesque and still authentic eco experience. This was well situated for that. We had a great time.
The cottage was full of very thoughtful touches and decore. The bed was great. The first night was quite hot and we would have appreciated a fan, but we understood the heat wave we were in was unprecedented. I have visited Port Renfrew multiple times and the heat has never been a problem. I would recommend a fan for this cabin; just for those rare times. It was hard to get a cross breeze because of the way the cottage is situated on the land. The remainder of our stay was fine because it cooled off.
A bbq was provided, and they had everything we needed in the kitchen.
The landscaping is really well done, and there is privacy in the back where the fire pit is. We had a great night of sitting by the fire making s’mores before the fire ban took effect.
Appreciate this cozy place and I would come back.
Side notes for people new to PR:
-There is no cell reception. None at all. So the wifi is a necessity for planning. But it would be good to download your Google map section before coming so you can get to the cabin.
-There are not many places to buy anything, so just bring everything you need. Yes, everything.
-Bring your bikes or kayaks. Nowhere to rent. If the complex this cabin is in sought fit to offer that service in future I think that would be awesome!
-Explore the greater area. So many beautiful rocky beaches and hikes.
