The location and setting of this property was ideal, with proximity to town and privacy at the property. Huy greeted us after we checked in and gave is some helpful advice on places/areas to explore. The cabin had everything we needed for our two night stay and the beds were comfortable. We had one small concern that was acknowledged and addressed immediately.

Hosts were super friendly. Cottage was simple and comfortable, though rustic. Really hope they get the sulphur smell in the hot water figured out. Appreciated the bottled water to help with this. A good little place for a simple landing place from where to explore beautiful Saltspring Island.
