Stunning spot, perfect for a getaway with family and friends!

My new spouse and I brought a couple of our closest friends and family here for a post wedding weekend. Driftwood had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway, and more! We loved being able to see the animals, each room was exactly as described, and better! The location was perfect for quick day-trips, or for just sitting around the fire pit. The lodge is perfect for those looking to find a great spot for communal get-togethers, but but also enough individual rooms for everyone to have their own space. Can’t wait to stay here again!

Early spring retreat with friends

Great location with a magnificent view of the ocean, spacious and well equipped. The kitchen is quite small as many others noted, but really well equipped and appropriate for larger group cooking. Note: there are no double murphy beds, there are 5 king beds and some cots, as well as the main living room has sleeping options on a sofa and extractable queen bed. Otherwise, all the amenities are great. Very proactive communication, well thought-through details. Thank you for the stay!

Fantastic family week-end

We celebrated my husband's 65th birthday in style at this beautiful rental overlooking the Pacific ocean. Everyone loved the location and the amenities, making good use of the outdoor hot tub, the fire pit, and the grounds in general. The updated kitchen had everything we needed, and the two large tables easily accommodated our party of 11 adults and two small children at meal time. The pictures accurately represent the whole site. The only error in the listing is the reference to "murphy beds" which are actually 4 heavy-duty, twin sized, folding steel cots. But everyone slept well all the same. Can't wait to visit again next year!

Driftwood Lodge: A Dream Getaway

This property offered the perfect blend of luxury, tranquility, and breathtaking natural beauty. Panoramic Views: The panoramic views were absolutely stunning. From the lodge’s elevated vantage point, we enjoyed sweeping vistas of the ocean and surrounding forest. Sunrise and sunset were particularly magical, painting the skies with vivid colors that seemed to stretch endlessly over the horizon. Every window framed a scene worthy of a postcard, making it difficult to leave the comfort of the lodge. Short Trail to the Creek: One of the highlights was the short trail leading down to a peaceful creek. The walk was easy and well-maintained, winding through lush forest and offering a chance to immerse ourselves in nature. The sound of the bubbling water combined with the serene atmosphere made it an ideal spot for reflection or just enjoying a quiet moment. Accommodations and Amenities: The layout of the lodge was perfect for a group or family retreat. The separate bedroom offered privacy and a cozy escape, while three of the other bedrooms featured dry saunas and private hot tubs, which added a luxurious touch. Relaxing in a hot tub after a day of exploring was pure bliss. The outdoor amenities were equally impressive. The wood-burning fireplace inside the lodge created a warm and inviting ambiance in the evenings, while the outdoor jacuzzi provided an incredible spot to soak under the stars. The fire pit was a favorite gathering place. Would highly recommend.

Perfect for that getaway weekend

We visited with 6 adults and 4 young kids - three families. And it was lovely - the house is exactly as described, and is clean, lovely, and comfortable. It's easy to reach (from Hwy 1), and is remote enough that you can really enjoy yourself, and the kids loved running around the property, playing with whatever they could find, going on walks and visiting the beach. Meanwhile the house itself is wonderful, very comfortable and the adults were able to relax as well. I would also note that the Lodge has stunning sunsets, and the view from each room is lovely to wake up to. We're planning on returning, and will stay longer next time.

Fantastic getaway weekend

What a gem! This property was absolutely fantastic for our group of 10 adults (5 couples). We appreciated having separate sleeping spaces for everyone but a common house to hang out in. The house was super well stocked so we had everything we needed. (We especially appreciated the warm fleece blankets and real wood-burning fireplaces — kept us cozy!) The outdoor space is exceptional, as well! The ocean and trees made the whole place super relaxing (and gorgeous). We spent a lot of time in the hot tub, and pretty much lamented when we had to go off property for a meal or another activity. The restaurant at the Timber Cove Resort (3m away) was great for dinner. Highly recommended! You will not be disappointed if you book the Driftwood Lodge! We will certainly be coming back!
