Idyllic coach house

Nestled at the bottom of a beautiful flower garden and manicured property, this coach house overlooks the water and Mortimer Spit. It’s a lovely location and a very comfortable accommodation.

Absolutely perfect!

This is an adorable, cozy and well appointed coach house. The bed is super comfortable. The wood burning fireplace is ideal for taking the chill off the odd cool night, while also adding a romantic touch - the supplied wood and kindling was appreciated. West facing views over the bay served up wonderful evening sunsets as well as interesting views of the odd passing boat or kayaker from the deck with morning coffees. Pender Island is well set up for exploring with numerous marked beach access trails or viewpoints. A lot of thought and care has gone into the making of this property, which only adds to the enjoyment. Jane and Dennis are wonderful hosts. We could easily have stayed longer and look forward to returning in the near future.

Wonderful and peaceful cottage

My wife and I just completed a wonderful week at a superb cottage on Pender Island. Location : adjacent to the house of our hosts, the cottage is located at the very beginning of South Pender Island, minutes away from grocery and other stores and from walking and hiking trails. Cottage: very private with all the equipment and amenities one needs (kitchen has all for cooking, excellent wireless, bluetooth music, TV, BBQ); there is nice patio on the main floor and a balcone on the bedroom floor , both facing the ocean...view is unparalleled, all in a peaceful and calm environment. Our hosts were simply gracious and fantastic: warm welcome, discrete and dealt promptly with our few questions/requests: no doubt that they are an important positive element of our stay. The property is well organized to ease up the daily housekeeping functions. On the island we visited a dear friend who knew exactly where we were staying and who did mentioned that this cottage was one of the best accommodations on the island, if not the best one...this says it all! Peaceful and restful stay in a cosy and attractive cottage surrounded by nature and the ocean: one cannot wish better than that....Highly recommended by m y wife and I.

Awesome!

My wife and I just spend a week at this property and it was incredibile. The hosts were very nice and the property was beautiful. You could spend the entire week just sitting on the deck watching the wildlife. We most morings watching the otters, seals, racoons (much to our hosts dismay), herons, kingfishers, ravens, etc. I would highly recommend this place.

A great spot for watching the boats go by, yet not very noisy. Well situated near Mortimer Spit for swimming, launching kayaks, canoes and other boats. Monday morning dog play was great for dog and humans alike. The cottage had all that was needed and hosts were great.

Pender Paradise

A little piece of paradise at the Cottage on the Cove. Jane and Dennis were wonderful hosts. Friendly and offered invaluable information about the island during my stay. They take very special care of the property. The cove cottage is perfect. A lovely location on the water with a dock, two decks on which to sit and watch the water, the boats and the sunset, and eat meals in the sunshine. A perfectly sized cottage with one bedroom upstairs with small deck and a welcoming area downstairs with well equipped kitchen, dining room and sitting area. Well-planned layout of the cottage with lots of windows for great light and views from morning to night. Absolutely loved my stay and it was hard to leave. Look fowrad to the next visit.

Love this property. It is quiet , restful, and perfectly located. We can watch boat activity including lots of kayaks, dogs at the beach , and listen to the birds all from the two front decks. We kayaked from the beach below us and swam at Mortimer Spit. Very romantic getaway!
