About this property

Birch Bay Beach Cabana - a tiny oasis close to everything at the Bay. Pets OK

  • A small space in a great place!

    The Cabana is a short walk to the beach and a 10-minute drive to the US/Canada border. The location is convenient for everything this area has to offer. The space is simple, clean, and modern with amenities selected for your convenience. The unit features a 32" TV, electric fireplace, Keurig coffee maker, microwave, and a/c.

    Please Note: while the Cabana does not have a washroom ensuite a full bathroom is just steps away in the main house. The washroom is reserved for Cabana guests and accessible 24/7. For most guests this is not a problem as the washroom is close, just not in the room. For others (such as those who frequently use the bathroom at night) it can be less than ideal.

    Over the years we've learned every guest has unique expectations and our #1 goal is to do our best to exceed your expectations. To do that we need to know what's important to you. It's for this reason we ask that you consider if not having a washroom ensuite is acceptable to you

    Spectacular views of the Bay, San Juan's & Vancouver Island are waiting for you on the back patio and the world-famous "C" Shoppe is just down the hill. Close to everything Birch Bay offers yet the Cabana is quiet, private, and secluded. A peekaboo view of the bay is available from inside the unit

    The well-maintained grounds of the property are open to guests. You may use the back patio where you'll find a grill and fire pit. Sunsets and stargazing on the patio are often a highlight for guests.

    We offer free bicycle rentals while staying with us. We also offer kayak and SUP rentals which are just $25/each per day including all your paddling gear and free drop off/pick up beachside. There's no better way to experience the bay than on the water and we make it easy. Just show up at the beach and leave the rest to us.

    NEW! We can arrange for golf cart rentals during your stay. A clean, comfortable and FUN golf cart can be yours for the day or just an evening to explore the area (Carts allowed in the Birch Bay Golf Cart Zone only). These deluxe, modern golf carts can carry 4, 6 or even 8 passengers and can be driven by anyone with a valid drivers license. It's one of the most fun ways to spend time here. We bring the golf cart right to your doorstep and from there you are free to go explore, get a bite to eat, enjoy the state park or whatever sounds good to you. When you are done you can drop your cart right in front of the Cabana. Ask your host for more information on availability, cost or to book a Golf Cart during your stay!

    The Summer calendar is filling up fast! Make your plans to come relax and unwind in beautiful Birch Bay. The sun is out and the Bay is busy with BBQ's, sandcastle building and summertime family fun. Long summer days offer a chance to enjoy the many community events here or just kick back and watch the tide go in and out.

    Maybe you want to catch crab or dig for clams? You could enjoy great local food, golf at one of the nearby award winning golf courses or take a hike through a coastal forest. Or perhaps visit a farmstand, the farmers market before getting pampered at a world class spa. Whether outdoors or in there is something for everyone here.

    **PLEASE NOTE: While we do not charge any housekeeping fees there is a $35/stay fee for guests with pets (no additional charges for ADA-registered service animals per federal law). This covers dogs or cats (1 only - up to 50lbs) for up to a 5 night stay. Longer pet stays are accepted though additional charges apply for stays longer than 5 days. Please contact us for details.

    ***PLEASE ALSO NOTE: If you are traveling with a pet please check the box to indicate this on your reservation at the time of booking (or by changing your reservation after booking). A message is also very helpful. If we are unaware in advance that you are traveling with a pet it can (and almost always will) cause a delay in your check-in. In rare instances if we are not aware in advance we may be unable to accomodate your pet. Informing us in advance avoids delays or complications during check in.

A wonderful property that is affordable, in a great location, and exactly as described! I felt like my wife and I had privacy during our stay but also an open line of communication if anything was needed. Next time we are in the area we will definitely come back! This rental is exactly as described, and immaculately well kept! Also Bruno is awesome :) Thanks so much for a wonderful stay!

We had such a great stay in Birch Bay! The place was very clean, comfortable, and in a great location, which made it easy to enjoy everything the area has to offer. It had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway, and we felt right at home. One of the absolute highlights was Bruno, the house dog — he was SO sweet and adorable and definitely made our stay extra special! 🐾❤️ We loved seeing him around. The property was peaceful, well cared for, and exactly what we were hoping for. Communication was easy, check-in was smooth, and overall we had a really enjoyable experience. We would happily stay here again and definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Birch Bay!

Such a cozy Cabana. Everything was neat and tidy and super comfortable. John got back to us within minutes of any questions and even recommended a great spot for dinner when I asked. Bathroom was no issue whatsoever. It was available for us anytime day or night. We will definitely be back!!

This was a nice one-night stop over on a trip that got us in late and had us leaving super early. We were a bit surprised to find the bathroom separate from the cottage where we were staying and thought that might have been better explained in the listing. It ended up being just fine after we got over being uncomfortable entering the main house to use the bathroom. The room gets super toasty with the wall heater and we enjoyed coffee in the morning that was left for us. It was easy to get up and out the next day and back on the road to our next destination. We slept well in the comfy bed!

The property is basically a detached bedroom off the main house. To access the private bath, you need to go through the main house. This is explained in the property comments, but its easy to miss if you're just going by the pictures. Access to the patio areas shown in the pictures in through the main house, so you have to walk through the owners private living area to gain access, which felt intrusive, so we didn't. I'm sure some people wouldn't be bothered by this, but we felt like we were staying in someone's home, not a separate space. If you're wanting privacy, this probably wouldn't be a good fit. The property is in a very active neighborhood, so there were power tools, hammering, some yelling and kids playing soccer against the fence outside the cabana after 8am. If you're just looking for a place to sleep close to the water (a 5 minute walk to the beach) and you plan on eating out for all meals, then this would be a good choice. The owner's communication was 5 star.

Cute little cabana. The grounds were very clean and beautiful. There is a water fountain out front that is visited by all kinds of birds. It was enjoyable watching them through the double glass doors of the cabana. The listing is accurate in what is included. Everything was neat and clean and a quick walk to the bay. It's the perfect size for 1 to 2 people. I really appreciated that they accommodated me and my two small dogs. The area is pretty eclectic. A mixture of fancy beach homes and generational properties. I felt safe walking my dogs and it was refreshing having so many people smile and say or wave hello.I'll visit the area again and will not hesitate to stay at the cabana.

Be aware the bathroom is NOT attached to the cabana room. It is inside the owners house which means you need to leave your area, cross the outside courtyard and enter into the owners main house. The owners were considerate and gave you access the whole time but it was definately inconvenient for us since we are not used to that. You needed to be dressed and shoes on everytime including the middle of the night. There also is no access to running water except the bathroom inside the house. It was a very nice, very clean, modern, and beautiful place. If having access to the bathroom instead of having a bathroom is fine with you then I would highly recommend this tiny home.

The room and bed was clean. But the owners dog pooped in the shower one night and peed on the bathroom rug the next. It would also be nice if it mentioned the bathroom and shower was inside of the main house, not in the cabin.

The space was clean and cozy. The bathroom situation was weird for sure. Always felt like I was intruding and there was always someone hanging out in the house when we went through the main space. This is a stay for extroverts for sure.

We were very excited to stay here for a second time! Great price and quick walk to the beach. Sadly the sweet dog left us a poop in the shower. I sent the host a message hoping to get it cleaned up so we could use the shower but unfortunately we never got a response. Even after we checked out, we never even got an apology message or anything, which was very disappointing : (
