This was definitely a rare gem. We had a perfect stay here. Everything was of a high standard from the cleanliness to the little thoughtful touches and attention to detail. It was a pleasure to stay at Denise and Don's. They were generous hosts sharing their local knowledge and making us feel welcomed.

Love the art. Ice tray was full and frozen. Great comfortable space with good juju. Very welcoming after the two days of travel it takes to get here.

Lovely stay with amazing hosts. The property and gallery are very inspiring. A quieter option than staying at the resort.

Nice, quiet place to stay. Clean, new space with full kitchen. Restaurant at the waterfront is an easy walk.
The apartment is equipped with everything you need. It is small but private with a lovely back garden with BBQ. The bed is very comfortable with quality bedding. The owners have creatively furnished the apartment with beautiful wood craftsmanship. I highly recommend making time for a visit to the attached Boom Boat studio and Art Gallery. Don and Denise are great hosts willing to share art expertise and lots of local history.
Prime location in Telegraph Cove within walking distance to the historic boardwalk, whale museum, whale watching & kayaking, restaurant. And the owners have the most wonderful gallery that you need to check out!
Beautiful, artsy little suite! Clean and warm. Has a little sitting area with a fire pit. Was great for my friend and I and my dog! Would def recommend again. Have nothing but good things to say.
Denise and Don have created a wonderfully comfortable and unique space with one of a kind artistic touches. What amazing hosts: generous and kind, informative and helpful, and they had the perfect balance between being attentive and giving us space. We have no hesitation recommending a stay with them.
We stayed two nights at the BoomBoat suite. It was very clean and comfortable with beautiful and thoughtful attention to detail. The suite is cozy with a nice private outdoor space and a well organized kitchen. Denise and Don were welcoming and kind, respectful of privacy but available if needed. Our pup also enjoyed the stay watching the chipmunks running up the hill outside the window ! Very quiet and private - highly recommend if you are headed to the North Island. Oh ! the gallery is amazing!! worth spending some time there...
Our stay at the Boom Boat suite was very relaxing with a lovely back yard with a bubbling fountain. The suite was very clean and quiet with new appliances. The futon was new and comfortable. The hosts are on site if you required anything. We will stay again.
Autumn in Telegraph Cove is a very chill and quiet time. All the rest of the tourists have headed home, and it's mostly locals and the foolhardy adventurous sort of traveller. Denise and Don's property was cozy and quiet with all the amenities you could as for as self-reliant guest, and afforded me a great base where I could enjoy breakfast and dinner, and prepare lunches for days exploring the north end of the Island.
Denise was super helpful and welcoming, and I'd recommend staying here either as a stormy adventure in the offseason or as a destination vacation in the summer.
Lovely, clean and comfortable accommodation with brilliant hosts. Perfect as a base for exploring the area and a class above other accommodation we have stayed at in TC previously.
Great hosts, convenient location, very clean, well stocked , quiet with amazing woodwork through out. Lovely outdoor space too! The adjacent art gallery is amazing.
Accommodations were very comfortable with all the amenities. Hosts were very helpful and made us feel most welcome.

The property was in fantastic condition, located in the stunning Telegraph Cove. Denise and Don have put their own stamp on the property, with amazing Art and wooden features throughout- we would love to stay here again.
Wonderful couple and beautiful property right in the heart of the community of Telegraph Cove. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the unit had everything you could need!

Need separate sleeping area but side from that, lovely stay. Don is quite a craftsman.
Very lovely spot for a get away. Very accommodating, and definitely would stay there again. They really have everything you need and the space is so cozy and welcoming. Denise and Don had numerous suggestions that really made our road trip back south top notch! Only thing I’d suggest is maybe a broom so we could have cleaned up after ourselves the way I like to when I leave a place/maintain while I’m there. They’ve got all the basics covered of what you need. The cove down the road is such a cute spot to walk around and enjoy a lovely sunset! I could go on but my number one suggestion is talk to them - they’ve got so many great ideas to make the most of your stay! (Plus you can’t miss the gallery!)
