This lovely little cottage is perfect for a private get-away! I loved climbing to the cozy loft bed every night. The cottage is intimate and snug, and the owner is tucked every convenience into the sweet kitchen. I would come again!

Cute place

Great communication and instructions. We enjoyed the space. I would not pick this place if you are overweight or taller than 5'10". The loft is your bed. You climb a ladder and then crawl on the mattress to lay down. There is a day bed on the main level that felt comfortable so that's an option. We also had 1 cold shower the first day. The second day we turned the shower off whenever we could to save the hot water for 2 showers. That worked. We liked the space, the owner, and location. It was easy to go through customs.

A tastefully done and cozy retreat

We were only there for one night on our way to British Columbia but this rental ticked all the boxes for us. Very clean upon arrival, excellent communication with the owner and in a very peaceful, quiet neighborhood. Definitely has a high recommendation.

Peaceful retreat

We (a couple) had a lovely five-night stay in Nancy's quaint cottage. It was late August and the weather in Point Roberts was quite coastal (wet and coolish). The cottage was warm and dry and had everything we needed: cutlery, cooking utensils, small fridge, hotplates, toaster, coffeemaker, great water pressure, nice towels, comfortable bed and warm bedding. There was a microwave and toaster oven, but we didn't use them. We'd stay there again.

Charming, Clean and Cozy

My boyfriend and I stayed here for a couple of days and wish we could have been there longer. The garden was lovely, the accommodation is perfect for 2-3 people. Very close to beaches and the marketplace. One of the highlights was definitely Nancy. She was so pleasant and welcoming and has put her blood, sweat and tears into maintaining a lovely property. Highly recommended!

Such a beautiful little piece of history. We felt like we got to travel back in time while enjoying a very peaceful and quiet time away. The hostess is very friendly and resourceful as she helped us understand the history of Point Roberts, where all the wonderful places to visit, and was very hospitable.

Lovely stay

My daughter and I had an amazing time at the cottage. We spent time in the garden and walked a lot. It was a great time for both of us as we were able to completely unplug. Nancy welcomed us and we appreciated her caring approach. The location is amazing, a walking distance to the local beach and lots of hiking opportunities. Point Roberts is a peaceful place by the ocean. We will come back soon.

Delightful little cottage in Nancy’s varied gardens, a short walk to a public beach.

Getway over the holidys

Point Roberts is a quaint town and because of its unique geographical there are not many services available, so bring the gourmet food in wirh tou if that is desired. Local grocery store is okay for basics. With that said bike riding is great and while there are some hills they are manageable without an e bike. We saw a pod of Orcas at South Beach fairly close to shore ovserving jumps and tail splashing. Along with the variety of birds,seala etc. It will make a naturalist smile. The little cottage has a wonderful garden and very private dining area under the trees. The house is eclectic, but certainly very functional. Lots of chara ter and thought went into decorating the cottage. For those who tend to spread out when sleeping you may want to use the daybed as well as the loft. Nancy. The host is great and full of information about things to do.

This is a great little cottage with lots of character. We will definitely stay here again!

We loved being so close to the beach. While it is small it had everything we needed, blankets, games and books. The kitchen was small but still had what we needed to prepare simple meals. Nancy was very kind and also respectful of our space. The garden is beautiful, I imagine in the summer it would be perfect for lounging in the shade with a good book. We will definitely stay here again.
