Cottage vacation rentals in Chemainus

This was my third stay at the East Creek Studio, and it’s just as great each time! Very private, quiet, and clean. The hot tub and fireplace make this place extra special.

Very spacious! Exactly as described. Private and serene setting. The hot tub provided a relaxing end to the end of days hiking and beachcombing. Thank you Russell, we will be returning!!

One of the nicest places we’ve stayed. It felt more like staying at a friend’s beautiful home than a rental property. Hosts were very gracious and responsive.

We loved our stay here for our anniversary ~ very peaceful and private. Everything was clean, easy to find and the house was well-equipped. It’s a beautiful spot.

they've met me past midnight together (giving a feeling like I'm home)because I was running late on that day toured me around the house and showed everything I needed the house was well designed, spotless, and had pretty much every kitchenware the place was quite and charming I would recommend this place to my friends

This place is absolutely gorgeous!!! It was so peaceful and cozy. We were here in the winter and the view was stunning. We enjoyed the hot tub and cozy fire place. Would love to come back!!!

The little cottage is wonderful! We enjoyed the hot tub under the stars on a cold crisp January night, tips on local walks and hiking were very helpful, and of course the location! Peaceful and serene location near Otter Bay ferry. Bettyanne was super responsive, friendly, and helpful. Felt right at home. We would look forward to another stay. Thank you Bettyanne and Ron!

Me and my boyfriend had a nice relaxing weekend here. Very private and in a beautiful secluded area. The hot tub was perfect for the colder weather. Sherry was responsive and super easy to contact. Would definitely stay here again!

Loved our stay! The place was bigger than expected and was well decorated. Really comfortable bed and ambient fireplace really made our stay.

Louise's cottage is so sweet and warm and inviting. She had so many thoughtful touches and amenities like battery operated candles everywhere, tons of pillows and throw blankets, and fresh local milk. It was a tough strange to have to go through a bedroom to the bathroom but we never had any issues with it. It was a very private and homey space with everything we needed and more :).

1 month stay here and enjoyed it immensely. Walking distance to Main Street with shops, restaurants and marina. Can’t say enough about the location and beautiful backdrop with amazing views. Quiet neighborhood. Allison was very easy to communicate with. Would stay here again!

We had an exceptional stay at the Innlet Hideaway. The house was beautiful and comfortable and the gorgeous view of the ocean was the cherry on top. Our host Donna was very responsive and also offered us the opportunity to check-in early which we took advantage of given we have young kids. We found the space to be very cozy and we settled in quickly. The rooms were spacious and beds were comfortable. The house had modern finishes and was nicely decorated so we found ourselves really enjoying the space which was especially nice since we spent a lot of time inside relaxing. The nightly rate was absolutely responsible and we would definitely stay here again.

We came for a winter weekend getaway and lucked into arriving just in time for a big storm to come through. It was amazing watching the rough seas through the windows that overlook the ocean. As everyone says, the view is stunning. The road runs between the house and the beach but is quiet - lots of people walking on it and the beach. The house is charming - feels like an older beach cottage that has had some good updates. Water is nice and hot, all of the soap and towels and toiletries. No need to pack cooking oil or basic spices, it was all there. If you like rocks like we do, the stones in front of the house are very cool :) Would stay again 100%.

I booked Lois's place for some workers who are fixing up my house. It was perfect for them - super clean and comfortable. And as a special treat, they got to see a pod of orcas swimming in Miner's Bay.

Our stay was wholesome! The place is a bit tricky to find, but Rachel provided a clear instruction of how to get there. Easy and flexible check in and beautifully organized and clean place with some games and puzzles and a squeaky toy which was great if you bring a pet with you. Rachel was also responsive and quite helpful with the tips around the bnb. The guide book she provided is also great for finding places to explore around in Nanaimo. 10/10! Would definitely recommend staying here. :)

Definitely a 10/10. The cottage was immaculate and was equipped with all the amenities needed for our stay. It was cozy, warm, comfortable and quiet. In walking distance to Rathtrevor Beach and the Top Bridge Trail. Also, close to restaurants and stores if needed. We stayed 3 nights over the Thanksgiving weekend - October 2024

We had a lovely stay in Rachel’s guest house! It was cozy and private and a lovely get away from the city. We were within a 15 min drive to the nearest town which was great. Would definitely recommend Rachel’s place

We found ourselves in town for a family service and Fiona was the utmost kind and supportive host we could have found. The space was absolutely perfect, spotless, serene, and comfortable. It was exactly as described and made a difficult trip much more easy, especially being by the beautiful ocean. We saw a ton of wildlife so the speed limits are absolutely necessary. Thank you Fiona, we will surely be back in the future.

Matthew's place was comfortable and had all of the amenities a group or family could need for a relaxing getaway. The dining table with bench seating was great for breakfast with the kids, the outdoor space was great (big covered fire pit and hot tub!), and the place felt spacious with lots of seating. There were even fun extras like board games and kids toys. We walked to the nearby bar & grill for dinner and had a great meal. Next time I'm in the area, I would definitely stay again and extend my stay to get the full lake cabin experience!

If your looking for a tranquil getaway this is the place. No TV, no loud noises, only the serene sounds of bird calls and peaceful ocean nearby. Leslie is a great host down to the detail of the strength of your preferred coffee so she can supply it. The cottage is surreal and super cozy. Super safe and completely feels as if in your a forest from the inside even though the road is not far away.

Simple, Paceful and serene. This was one of the best airbnbs stayed at!. My family and I had a wonderful time staying at this cozy house. The location is stunning, the surroundings are speechless, and the house is extremely beautiful. Mark is a fantastic host. We will come back 100% sure, there are sooo much to explore.

Thank you Nika, our mini break in the valley was awesome. You have a beautiful location

This was a perfect place to stay for us on a quick overnight heading up island! Beautiful and peaceful location with a stunning sunset. And a visiting bear on the patio in the morning! We will be back.

Excellent place, gracious hosts. Beautiful beach house right near Trevor Beach Park and also the highway, five minutes or less to get into Parksville and there are lots of restaurants in and among the various resorts. Many thoughtful touches, including books and board games and even a small Christmas tree, highly recommended.
