Our experience at Westover was perfect, and Tara was the most lovely host! Responsive and easy to arrange with. She had lots of recommendations for restaurants etc.

The cabin itself is exactly as pictured - adorable little spot in the trees. Inside the cabin was quaint but very beautiful - bed was super comfy, propane fireplace was lovely/worked perfectly, little fridge and glasses/plates/etc. We even used the BBQ and made a full dinner on our first night with no problems (big wood cutting board and lots of cutlery). It's on the back corner of their property, completely private from the main house.

Bathroom/outdoor sink/outdoor bathtub were all perfectly clean and worked perfectly. No issues with hot water at all. Of course as this is all detached from the cabin, it's a bit rustic, but perfect for our little island getaway. A hot bath under the trees was extemely lovely.

Tara delivered breakfast, which was LOVELY. Homemade blackberry pancakes, sausages, fruit, coffee etc. Delicious homemade granola and scones 2nd morning. She was out of town on our second night, and made sure (with great concern!) we had all the supplies for our second breakfast. Perfect.

Coming to Salt Spring Island of course you should be ready for a rustic experience overall, which Tara's place is just perfect for. Highly recommend!

Just so you're prepared: no TV or wifi, and not super close to water/beach (about 15 min walk). Very close to Ganges, golf course, and Long Harbour ferry. Would be pretty do-able with bikes and no car.
