A beautiful cottage, understated elegance. King bed with high quality linens. The food left for us.. homemade bread and granola, fresh eggs from their own chickens so delicious. The owners couldn’t be nicer. Highly recommend.
We really enjoyed our stay here! It’s perfect for a long weekend, regardless of the weather. It has everything you need for a unforgettable stay at the Sunshine Coast.
Wonderful stay in this cute cottage! Rebecca was so generous and kind upon arrival - delicious breakfast items were provided too! Perfect location if you want to explore along the lower coast. A great experience!
Lovely quiet spot to stay, friendly property owners and friendly animals too! Bonus fresh eggs and bread and butter left for us and Rebecca had thoughtfully put up a ‘Happy Birthday’ sign inside. Very clean and had carefully written instructions on getting there and how everything worked. Thank you!
Great little place with perfect location. Host is generous and great at communicating with you. Host is always ready to give recommendations and answers promply whenever we had questions. Lots of kids toys and books as well as a few books to interest the adults.
We really enjoyed our stay at the charming cottage in the trees. The fresh eggs, yogurt, bread etc. was appreciated. It was very relaxing and peaceful. Thank you!
The property was delightful! It was comfortable and quiet while being artfully beautiful. We also enjoyed the delicious homegrown eggs and the wonderful bread and condiments left for us by our hosts. And for us the location was perfect! We were able to enjoy Roberts Creek and to visit our friends who live nearby.
The cabin was very cute and cozy. The kitchen was stocked with all the basic necessities. Rebecca was readily available to answer our questions and the farm fresh eggs were also delicious.
We had such a lovely stay with our hosts in Roberts Creek! Such a special place and great for a small family. The delicious fresh eggs for breakfast were a lovely touch. Hosts were very accommodating and friendly. The location is close to the beach and central between Sechelt and Gibsons. Would highly recommend and we will hopefully be back!
We had a wonderful relaxing vacation!! The cottage is warm and cozy, perfect location for everything, walk to the beach, drive to Smugglers Cove. Had coffee and pear tarts everyday at the Gumboot Cafe! Thank you for the extra treats for when we arrived, especially loved the eggs from your chickens.
Thank you so much!!
Rebecca’s place is unique, comfortable, and extremely peaceful. We were welcomed with fresh eggs laid by the hens on the property, a loaf of bread, granola, yogurt, fresh jam, milk, cream, and OJ. She was also very helpful in directing us with things to do such as hiking and restaurants to try out. Would highly recommend!
My family thoroughly enjoyed staying at this adorable cottage. It was emasculate and charming. My 2 year old loved the chickens and the garden in the private fenced in backyard. Rebecca is a lovely host. Thank you for having us and for your recommendations.
This cottage tucked away at the back of Rebecca's property is cozy and welcoming. You do need to run the dehumidifier to keep the dampness in check, as it is built into the ground and we were a bit worried at first that it would be musty, but this was no problem at all in the end. The cottage has beautiful details -- a lovely rainforest shower, gorgeous linens and dishes -- that make it feel special. The outside space is private and inviting. Best of all: Rebecca is a wonderful host and her fresh eggs, sourdough bread, granola, etc. are amazing!
We enjoyed our time at The Sleepout so much! It was a perfect home away from home! We had everything we needed to have a wonderful and relaxing week. The breakfast basket was such a personal touch! We loved the private backyard and the beach access! Rebecca was so approachable and lovely! We enjoyed lots of hikes at Cliff Gilker Park and coffee and fresh baked goodies at The Gumboot Cafe! We will definitely be back!
The Sunshine Coast never disappoints & neither did our beautiful cabin! It was clean, quiet, private & even the little details were thought of. Beach towels rolled & ready, flowers bouquets in every room & fresh eggs from the resident chickens. The outside sitting area was private & peaceful surrounded by the garden with fruit trees & flowers. We will definitely be back!
Rebecca's cottage is as comfortable and relaxing as you see in the pictures. It was more than spacious enough for myself and my sister. It had the getaway cozy charm and feel with the comforts of home. The backyard chickens add an element of quaint. I'm thankful for the fresh eggs for us to make breakfast. Access to the beach was a 5 minute walk. Ideal for watching the sunset and stargazing. Unfortunately it was not warm and dry enough to enjoy the outdoor patio as it was also fabulously set up. We relied on the bus, so we were very thankful the stops traveling north and south were close to the property. The stay helped us both relax and unwind.

Just ok
Easy to locate and overall location is ok. Friendly, responsive owners. Pretty rustic. Absolutely zero view. House lacks closets and cupboards. If you are planning a lengthy stay you will be disappointed as there is little room for grocery storage or clothes hanging. Cleanliness is below par (cobwebs, dusty, appliances not totally clean). We were two guys there for golf so it worked for us, but many would be unhappy. Overpriced for what we got in my opinion.
Loved staying at this cozy, clean, friendly b&b. The detached house is quiet and spacious. Great place to come to recharge. Our host—Rebecca—is warm and inviting
Place was perfect for our little family for two nights. Loved being able to walk down to the beach. And the breakfast basket was such a nice added touch!!! We enjoyed our stay

About the host
Hosted by Rebecca Dufresne
My husband Gordon, two-year-old daughter Ella and myself moved to the Sunshine Coast from Toronto 14 years ago. It was a huge leap but we've never looked back, as the Coast lifestyle suits us to a tee. We could never of imagined that we would still be living here but now with a 18-year-old daughter, 13-year-old son, 5-year-old son, an Irish Wolfhound pup named Oona, a flock of chickens and a garden full of vegetables & fruits.
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with our heritage home, the minute we walked onto the property. Roberts Creek has a charm all of its own and is absolutely unbeatable in the summertime, especially. Our heritage home is an unusual find for the Sunshine Coast, and it reminds me of the heritage home that I grew up in, in Ontario.
What makes this property unique
We provide a delicious breakfast box which includes fresh eggs from our own hens, bread, jam, butter, orange juice, milk, cream, yogurt, homemade granola, coffee & teas. Our cottage is also located in a private & quiet location on our property surrounded by gardens & our cottage is close walking proximity to the ocean.
