About this property

The Boatyard Rainforest Getaway

Our communal property welcomes you to come stay and unwind on the west coast!
This custom mid century style home is divided into two privately accessed, separate floors. Nestled amongst 2 acres of rainforest and beautifully landscaped food gardens. Our unique west coast hideaway features wrap around decks for sun all day, wood stove, radiant floor heating, hot tub.

A 10 min walk down our trail will have you at the ocean for breathtaking sunsets. The forested trails on the property are rustic but reveal natural ponds, swings, treehouse views.

Minutes to provincial parks and numerous beaches, and a coffee shop right down the hill.

Owners live on the property. We value our privacy and our guests, every effort has been made to offer you a private and convenient stay on the Wild West coast. There are times when you may see property members working on trail maintenance, chopping wood, or working the gardens and the owners live in the lower suite, but we only interact with guests as much as they desire.

Amazing place!

I stayed at the boatyard with my sisters and my 3yo nephew and we had such a great time! Place is so quiet, in the nature, comfortable with everything we need. We would love to come back in the future! Thank you Kelly for the stay

Amazing Birthday Weekens!

The interior of the cabin was well maintained, clean, spacious and aesthetic. The wrap around deck was my favourite. The forest scenery was lovely and I adored the lack of a TV because my friends and I would have used it given the option, and I’m so glad we didn’t. We played the board games provided, chilled in the hot tub and had coffee on the deck. The hosts were very communicative and sweet, reached out to let me know there was risk of a power outage our first night. Would highly recommend!

Cozy place

We really loved this place. The location is great although a tricky walk to the beach through the forest. We loved the hot tub in the pouring rain. The cabin with the wood stove and a generous supply of wood made for a very cozy and relaxing stay. There does need to be some outdoor lighting when you arrive and on the deck near the hot tub. My dog fell off a ledge in the dark near the old hot tub/pizza oven. Fortunately not hurt but that was lucky.

Amazing getaway

We had such an incredible time staying at this cabin. The space was much larger than we had expected. Very clean and well maintained. Full wrap around deck and hot tub was perfect for a summer getaway. There are other units nearby and found that lots of people from other groups were walking around the property and house/going to and from the beach so it isn’t as private as anticipated but we weren’t too bothered by it. The host was very informative and helpful throughout the entire experience! We had not realized that the single beds in the second room were stacked! Only feedback would be to mention that somewhere :)
