There is parking for multiple vehicles or trailer. We do allow smoking outdoors but have strict rules. Please use the ashtray provided, no flicking butts! There is no cable TV but there is a Roku streaming device in the bedroom and living room, as well as a dvd player and a large selection of dvd movies.
During the summer (non-burning) season, guests are welcome to use the propane fire pit. We provide one propane tank at the start of your stay; however, we’re not able to provide unlimited propane. If you plan to use the fire pit frequently, additional propane can be obtained by exchanging the tank at the nearby corner store or by bringing your own. We supply lots of firewood for the permitted burning months.
We are pet friendly but ask that you respect our rules. There is an extra fee of $30. ***please add this fee when booking. All pets have to be kept in close proximity (not free to roam) or on leash when outside. We ask that you use the shovel provided to flick into the bushes. We really dislike having to handle left behind bagged dog poop. **IMPORTANT- We ask all guests to ensure that they have trip cancellation and extended health coverage at the time of booking. Refund requests outside our cancellation policy for personal health reasons and unexpected weather events (that may cause road closures or other delays) such as: snow storms, flooding, forest fires, power outages, ferry cancellations, etc. will not be given. Thank you for understanding why we these cancellation policies are in place for our small business.

We had a wonderful stay. The property was great inside and out. Cozy cabin, kitchen with everything you’d need, wonderful hot tub, friendly hosts and host doggies :)
The property was very clean and well taken care of. Check in was a breeze. Its in a great location and worked very well as a home base for all the day trips we took exploring the area.
We had a lovely stay. House was clean and directions provided by the host were detailed and accurate. Highly recommend staying here. Walking distance to a really nice loop hike around Matheson Lake and the Galloping Goose.
This is the perfect place for a weekend away. So close to great trails and wilderness. The cabin and hot tub are private and beautiful. One of my favourite places.
We've stayed at this great cabin 3 times thus far, and hope to return again sometime. The location is a wonderful base of operations from which to explore the many fabulous hiking trails nearby. The cabin is spacious and very well appointed. We loved the outdoor hot tub, even in the rain, and the very efficient wood stove inside added to the ambience.
We absolutely enjoyed our stay in this beautiful cozy cabin. Very quiet, very clean, and very private. Close to many great trails and the quaint little town of Metchosin. We had such an enjoyable time, it was hard to leave. We would stay here again for sure.
We commented to each other at the end of our stay that this is perfect for our family of 4 for our 3 night visit. The rental filled all our needs and the hot tub was popular. Everything is in excellent condition.
We hope to return again next year.
Cute cozy, yet not small place. Very clean and quiet. We had a great time exploring Victoria and the surrounding areas and really enjoyed being able to then escape back to our little oasis in Metchosin.
Cosy, cute & comfy hideaway near beautiful Matheson Lake & galloping goose trail
We loved this cosy and very well looked after cabin hidden away in a forest next to a lake. The cabin had all the comforts we wanted and the peace & quiet we hoped for. Even a fan for the hot summer evenings! We can’t wait to come back.
The cabin is super comfortable and has everything you need. The space outside the cabin is beautiful. I enjoyed walking down and around the lake every morning. Amanda and Dave are very kind and helpful. We’re very grateful to them. It’s so peaceful there. We want to return.
My partner and I have been looking for a cabin in the woods for ages and this was the perfect one. Far enough away from things that we had all the privacy we wanted, yet close enough that driving to grab a latte and snacks was a breeze. We both can't wait to come back!
Loved the privacy and cleanliness of the guesthouse! There were lots of nice touches and everything was very comfortable. We loved the hot tub and the wood stove, especially to warm up on chilly nights! It was nicely located, lots to do nearby in terms of nature and a cute little restaurant! The only improvement I would say is it would be nice to have a few more towels provided! Other than that we loved it and would for sure come again!
My partner and I spent two wonderful nights here and wish we could’ve stayed longer!
The cabin was cozy, very well appointed, there was firewood ready for a rainy night of staying indoors.
The bed was comfy and the sheets were ultra soft.
The entire cabin was spotless and the hot tub was a nice way to start and end the day…even in the rain!
If you want an excellent getaway this is the place. Pack your swimsuit, some cozy clothes, some food and the rest is taken care of!
A beautiful, tranquille and serene spot. Most times you could hear nothing but the sound of wind in the trees. The hot tub was used a lot! Clear instructions for everything. Very comfy king bed and kitchen was well stocked with basics. We would absolutely return in a heartbeat 💓
Hosts have thought of everything to make your stay comfortable and easy. They supplied things most wouldn't think to bring with them! And what they may not have can be found at the general store in town which is basically like a small town Walmart. They also have things you'd never think of but would be glad they have! Hot tub was great, loved the fire pit, the home layout was great... I wish it was my home! Hope to come back again someday.
If there is a complaint about this place, it's that she made it hard to have a complaint. It is a beautiful spot with wonderful privacy. The neighbors are far enough away that they stay out of site. The outside area is set up for a campfire and a hot tub. The location is far enough for a beautiful area and close enough to the area you don't have to drive far to get to anything.
We happened to go during the coldest time, so we didnt get to enjoy the fire or hot tub outside. At 15 degrees F, we are wimps. The cabin is a quaint 1 bedroom home with a full kitchen. Great if you want to cook, in which my wife loves cooking. The living room is large and cozy with plenty of space. Overall, the cabin is cute and cozy.
I do have to warn that the floor is hardwood and really cold in the winter. Bring warm socks. The heat takes time to warm the house, but does great in keeping it warm. She does have 2 tv's, one in the bedroom and one in the living room. Easy set up and easy to use. Only complaint is that the tv's are small. But if thats all there is, we could live with that. The cabin was very clean when we arived. No pet hair, no dust, dishes and bedsheets definitely clean. Bathroom was also very clean.
One of the best things about this rental was the communication. Our host was very accomodating and answered any inquiry very quickly. There were never any problems if we had questions. She also gave us a couple places to visit that we took advantage of. I definitely will return.
