A Peaceful Paradise
A paradise in the woods. A cozy, quiet cabin. Charming hosts. Beautiful friendly dogs. Close to water with a beautiful view. A canoe. A well equipped kitchen. Internet access. The only problem is the pull out bed which is extremely uncomfortable.

Cindy and Jurgen have been fantastic hosts during our stay in their oceanside cottage. They have made us feel welcome, whilst exploring the scenic nature in their backyard. When our car broke and was taken the mechanics, Jurgen offered to help take a look and give us a ride back. Both Cindy and Jurgen showed compassion, and understanding for the troubles we encountered and made our visit enjoyable. We highly recommend this stay to any considering this location. Thank you Jurgen and Cindy! The Yan family

Anniversary and Engagement Getaway
We celebrated our anniversary and engagement at Jurgen and Cindy’s picturesque property. Gorgeous craftsmanship was displayed not only in our cabin but all over the property. Fruitful gardens and undulating stone work led my partner and I towards the inlet - the warmest water we’ve ever swam in! Highly recommend a 7+ day stay here Thank you Cindy and Jurgen

A Little Paradise!
This is a beautiful property with lush forests and a cozy, post and beam cabin, which is just a short walk from stunning views at the waterfront. There are warm waters for swimming and wonderful gardens for sitting. The hosts are warm, friendly and inspiring. We loved our stay.

Little cabin in the woods
An idyllic little cabin in the woods surrounded by old growth trees and beautiful gardens. It was a short walk to the inlet and a canoe was available for paddling. Hosts were welcoming and offered the opportunity to roam the property. Their dogs were a treat and popped over to visit. A great way to get away and unplug.

Amazing little cottage
This cottage is a true gem. My husband and I visited 10 years ago and we have always said we would take our children back, and we just returned from our visit. It was just as amazing as it was 10 years ago, our daughters had a wonderful time and we have made so many more memories. We definitely will be back for a third time.

An oasis of calm, healing and relaxation
What a beautiful spot. Nice and private, very peaceful. Unfortunately, my pup decided to have a midlife crisis and we weren't able to spend time with the fur gang who are a wonderful bonus to this property. The ocean is easily accessible and the owner's easy to communicate with who were very patient with my fishing obsessed kids. Shopping, stores and hiking are all close as well. Having a warm fire at the end of the day was a lovely extra. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Private and secluded
Wonderful friendly hosts who shared their property but were not intrusive. Their dogs huge and friendly were so well mannered and put my little dog at ease in no time. The cottage itself was so quaint it felt like going back in time but all the necessities were available. The road in is not so bad if you drive slow. We found it a little challenging to get down to the okeover sound but we are both in our seventies and a bit physically challenged. Younger people would have had no problems and kids would love it there with all the space to run around. In all a very pleasant stay and I would highly recommend it to anyone wishing to just “get away” for a while.

Perfect Get-away
This little spot was exactly what we were looking for! We enjoyed time relaxing, reading and plays cards at the cabin. We headed off for a couple day trips as well! Jurgen, Cindy and there 3 dogs were very welcoming! We enjoyed fresh basil from the garden, and garlic from a previous harvest. Would absolutely stay here again!

Absolutely divine
Perfect secluded location, perfect for switching off yet in relatively close proximity to other local areas of interest (e.g. Lund 15mins away). Delightful cabins, relaxed and friendly hosts - would most certainly recommend, and will be returning!

Comfortable Cabin - Enjoyable Easter Weekend
We enjoyed the peaceful, quiet setting near the ocean beach and Sunshine Coast trail. The cabin was cozy with a wood stove and lots of firewood available. The kitchen was well stocked with every pot, pan, baking sheet, utensils and dishes to cook most anything. Be advised, for coffee there is only a small Italian press that makes just six ounces of coffee at a time. It makes great coffee but small portions. The hosts, Cindy and Jurgen, were wonderful - very accommodating and informative about the area. Also very pet friendly as we brought our larger dog along for a holiday 🙂 The frogs were very vocal in the evening and we enjoyed their nature's chorus quite a lot. Oysters were plentiful on the beach, which we enjoyed snacking on. Everything made it a very pleasant and enjoyable Easter weekend.

Beautiful spot and cabin. The nearby Sunshine Coast Trail is great. No cell service and no internet (except by request) might discourage those who can't let go of the modern lifestyle, but it's a blessing for anyone who wants to slow down and have some time as a human being rather than a human doing.

Sweet solitude
We stayed here at the end of September and had gorgeous weather. Hosts were very helpful and friendly. We needed a place to have peace and quiet and this location really delivered! Bed was comfy for the two of us and we did a lot of cooking and found it very well stocked with all we needed. What an amazing, tucked-away spot…..highly recommend it.

Amazing getaway
I almost hate to give it good rating since it might get hard to book. It was a fabulous getaway, the quiet and the stars at night point out the noise & light pollution we get accustomed to. We had great paddling trips all over the inlet, some nice hikes and some time enjoying the peace and quiet. We both would have loved to have had more time as a week just flew by!

Awesome 👏 if you want a break from everything
This was a family break we needed from busy lives and just before school started. It was great to spend time canoeing and checking nature out at the beach. We enjoyed giving the kids a chance to take charge of rowing and navigating the waters. Watch out for the tide if you don’t want to get stuck! Incredible experience picking peaches off the tree and eating them. Thanks to our generous hosts who shared the fruit of their hard labour. The cottage has everything you need as far as basics go (some oil/tea, honey, pots, pans, dish soap, paper towel, extra bedding, towels, a fan, soap, and a kettle). If you feel adventurous, you can attempt baking as there are a few baking sheets, etc. The cottage is fine for 2 adults and 2 young children and it was great that it was nestled in a forest. The setting was relaxing to enjoy. My daughter enjoyed spending time with Surfer (dog) and new addition Toba (9 weeks old puppy). It was super cute to watch Surfer and Toba bonding and playing around. The road to the cottage is bumpy but take your time getting there and you’ll be fine.

What a gorgeous nook in the woods. We enjoyed our stay in the cabin. Had everything we needed for our family. Jurgen and Cindy were kind hosts, helpful when needed but gave us our privacy too. Would happily stay again.
