While the charming Loft bedroom provides for additional space and privacy, and is especially a favorite for families with kids. The loft is accessible by a sturdy 'ladder'.

The backyard is our ‘Wildwood’ that offers a lush, grassy retreat with towering alders, fir trees, blackberry bushes, and the occasional visit from wild bunnies, and deer. This tranquil corner feels like nature’s own sanctuary, painted colourful with Rhododendrons and a sea of Crocosmias. The heart of Wildwood, however is our favorite moss-covered rock, the home to our fire pit, pergola and outdoor dining area. Our front yard overlooks glistening ocean views and gardens, and offers a fragrant corner to enjoy a morning coffee or afternoon wine alongside the hummingbirds, under the Honeysuckle. Our Adult Spa Center Our private Spa can be made available for our adult guests, however we do have some protocols and a waiver for usage, safety and health.

Neighbourhood

Our neighborhood is called Otter Point. Here you will enjoy an authentic and Idyllic West Coast setting with close proximity to ocean, forests, or Sooke town amenities (located 8 km). Close enough to enjoy the vibrancy of City life (Victoria 47km), yet only minutes to several West Coast beaches, and the draw of Old Growth forests. We are ideally located for nearby activities that include beach combing, old growth forests and nature trails, coastal hiking, charter fishing, horseback riding, whale watching, bike/kayak/paddle boarding opportunities within minutes. Here you may also enjoy the quietness of being away from a city, or the brilliance of the stars enhanced by the darkened night sky. Fall in love with the uniqueness of our area as you watch the fog roll in over the water, hear the sound of the waves rolling, the voices of the Sea Lions; the smell of the fresh sea air; and excitement of spotting whales from the comforts of our front yard or the loft window. Some of our favourite nearby spots: 1 block from Otter Point rocks and small public park with shoreline fishing access. 1-2 km from Gordon's beach, an easy 10-15 walk. 4km from Muir creek 8km from the town of Sooke. 10 minutes to the Sooke Potholes 10km to Sheringham Lighthouse, French Beach and Shirley Delicious (a MUST visit for their tasty treats!) 20 minutes from Jordan River and China Beach and the Juan de Fuca Trail head @ Mystic Beach. 40 minutes to Sombrio Beach and our favourite secret Waterfall 30 min to East Sooke, Beecher's Bay (another gem) 1hr 15 min to Port Renfrew, Botanical Beach (our #1 suggested excursion) 47 km to Victoria 1 hour by car from Swartz Bay Ferry 63 km to nearest airport, Victoria International Airport
