A modern cozy cottage in your own wooded backyard located mid Vancouver Island.

Come visit Qualicum Beach located on beautiful Vancouver Island, Canada.
Rest and enjoy in your own private suite and patio; semi attached to back of main house residence. Nestled within a 2 1/2 acre lot, surrounded by woods, hiking /bike trails, creek and a pond. An oasis in nature but close to town amenities, golfing and minutes away from the beach.
-All linens, bath & beach towels, laundry, Netflix & 58" TV, fast 500Mbps WiFi, gas BBQ, ample private parking included and has a keypad entrance. Unfortunately due to local ordinance we can no longer offer a stove but have provided a dual hot plate and large toaster oven.

Wonderful quiet spot

We really enjoyed staying at Geraldine's. The suite is private and spacious. Very well equipped. It was a perfect spot from which to explore the area. Geraldine is a great host. Both non-intrusive, but available. We would stay here again.

Qualicum Beach Cozy Cottage - everything as expected

3 adults stayed here for 7 days to rest, play some golf and tennis, and to just explore the area's hikes and markets. You are a short ride from the beaches, if that is the reason for your visit, but there are other things to do as well. The cottage is comfortable and has what is needed. Thank you Geraldine and Kris.

Excellent cottage

My family (two adults, two kids) thoroughly enjoyed our three nights. The cottage was well stocked, fresh and very clean, with beautiful patio area backing on forest. Evenings were super peaceful. We appreciated the delicious lemon loaf on arrival, it was a short drive to town and beach. Check in was easy, and we would definitely come back!

Perfection

Great location with the kindest of hosts. Backed onto a peaceful green zone and beautiful patio. The hosts have the space furnished and stocked extremely thoughtfully, and having the laundry made it the perfect mid vacation stay for us. The suite was impeccably clean and airy... and an easy drive to get to allll the things. Hope to get back there again!
