Explore Salt Spring for a few days
Excellent place to explore Salt Spring. The deck was fantastic and the cottage was very comfortable and quiet. Would definitely consider staying there again next time. It was the ideal cottage to escape for a few days.

Salt Spring Island Cottage in the Woods
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the lovely and well-appointed cottage. We especially liked the deck over-looking the garden - great for breakfast and afternoon tea. The spacious kitchen had everything we needed. Hosts were welcoming and couldn't have been nicer. Would highly recommend!

A very clean comfortable cottage in an enchanting forest setting. A short drive from the Fulford ferry and very close to Ruckle Heritage farm, one of the areas we enjoyed most on beautiful Saltspring.
