About this property

Very private and peaceful Arbutus cottage in Yellow Point.

  • Spacious modern cottage with full kitchen, loft bedroom. Located in a rural area in Yellow Point, between Nanaimo (20 km north) and Ladysmith (17 km south). Very private and quiet with own driveway and parking. The cottage backs onto a 350 acre ecological reserve. Perfect for a peaceful retreat.

    We include coffee and tea and the ingredients for a free breakfast (eggs, jam, etc) from our hobby farm.

    Over 300 books (including collection of Reader's Digest and National Geographic). Lots of old fashioned board games and various types of puzzles.
    Telescope for star gazing.

    EV charging station (free).
    We speak English and French.

    Note: We do not allow guests, or visitors, who smoke (no exceptions).

Absolutely what we were looking for. Tranquility and off the beaten track. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the host was exceptional. Happy to accommodate us when needed but the cottage was comfortable, cozy and well stocked. Absolutely a place we would come back to.

Truly a beautiful oasis. A whole cabin to yourself. Very private with a meadow as your front porch. We played cards for hours. The hosts put out bird feed upon our arrival so we could enjoy the nature. They even brought bandaids when my partner suffered a small scratch. The kitchen had every amenity you would expect from a nice kitchen. Truly a beautiful location. Easy to get to salt springs and other golf islands. Would recommend this to any couple looking for a relaxing and unique stay. Great quality for the price. The hosts were very friendly and helpful.

Beautifully designed cottage. Practical and comfortable. Fully stocked kitchen. Patio with full view of nature. Serene and relaxing environment. Great place to get away. Our puppy very much enjoyed sunning himself in the grass. Trails nearby and beaches to explore. Ladysmith nearby for some shopping. Great host. Proactive and great communication.

YOU MUST STAY HERE!!! Backing onto 250 acres, this is paradise! I stayed for a week as a writing retreat and was treated to the utterly over-the-top hospitality and generosity of the hosts and the surroundings. You can't find somewhere more serene and peaceful - in my week there I wandered the trails, met all kinds of wildlife, and enjoyed the silence. The cottage is immaculate and truly one-of-a-kind, and the hosts have thought of everything. It's extremely comfortable and well stocked and the hosts were amazing at checking in. I will absolutely go back and recommend it to anyone and everyone - a total gem of a place!
