Cottage vacation rentals in Parksville

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful cabin in the woods, the perfect peaceful retreat from city life. The hot tub was such a treat in the evenings. We really enjoyed the outdoor fire pit too, and it was great that firewood was provided. The cabin was clean and cozy, and the hosts were very responsive and helpful. Two small things to note: the two doors facing the bed don’t have curtains, so it gets quite bright in the morning and feels a bit exposed, I found it a little uncomfortable. Also, the path leading up to the cabin was very muddy, so make sure you wear the right shoes. Overall, I would stay again, it was a great getaway, and we left feeling refreshed.

we loved our stay at Joule’s. The place was spacious and comfortable, we relaxed and were able to feel fairly at home. It rained the majority of our stay, and so the hot tub was especially enjoyed with being a perfect way to be outside during a drizzle. The kitchen was equipped for cooking meals, the beds were comfy, and Sechelt was a pleasure! We enjoyed a few trails nearby. Would recommend staying at Joule’s place for a Sunshine Coast getaway!

Kellen's Craftsman Cottage is a serene oasis located on the picturesque Francis Peninsula, making it an essential destination for anyone visiting the Sunshine Coast. Conveniently close to the main Madera Park shopping area, this cottage offers absolute tranquility with its private hot tub, and outdoor hot shower. We highly recommend this perfectly positioned location, especially for extended stays. While a 2-3 day visit may offer a glimpse of the beauty, a week-long stay or longer allows for complete immersion in the Sunshine Coast experience. The cost savings and the opportunity to truly unwind make a longer stay worthwhile. Kellen's Craftsman Cottage comes equipped with all the appliances necessary for a comfortable extended stay. Whether you're a couple needing a much needed break, or a family wanting a break from city life, this place is for you. Thank you Kellen for providing such a delightful place to relax and enjoy the wonders of the Sunshine Coast.

We really enjoyed our stay at Nicole’s. The house was well stocked and the beds were very comfortable. It was a short walk to the beach and into town. Nicole frequently checked in to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The kitchen was well equipped and we made many meals there. We look forward to returning!

This independent dwelling is in a resort community with multiple small houses on small land. The location beside a beautiful park is good. We did a day trip to Tofino; the driving is long. Though we never met Judy, she provided everything which is required and there is a well-stocked kitchen for cooking dinner. I recommend unconditionally.

This was an incredible space for our family to spend time together during the holidays. It was a short 2 minute walk to the beach with incredible views! We saw seals each time we visited the beach. The house was very clean, modern and comfortable. We loved having enough bedrooms for each of our children to have their own space and the common spaces were large and comfortable for everyone as well. Loved it!

We had a family bday get together here. It was perfect, Hugh and Deb added a "Happy birthday" banner and cake in fridge, what a special extra touch! We had 3 fabulous nights and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a quiet spot in Nanaimo. Hot tub was super bonus!

This is the second time our family has stayed at this cabin and we love it! Great location, amenities and easy communication with the hosts!

Beautiful tiny home in a great rural area but also close to downtown Courtenay. We loved the high ceilings and light you get in the cabin. Had a small hiccup during our stay but the hosts were quick to respond and correct the issue. Would stay again. Thanks!

Absolutely tranquil visit to the boathouse! Has everything you need. Margaret was very friendly and attentive. Gorgeous place you have created, complete silence and away from the hustle of cities. We will be back, most definitley. Thanks so much margaret!

We had a great stay at Andrew’s place. There was a small issue with the heating but he was very responsive and did his best to solve the problem. The cottage had everything you need to cook a family meal and a fire that heats up the whole living space. Overall it was a lovely cottage to spend a long weekend.

Great, large house in a quiet peaceful area! We really enjoyed our stay here and the place had everything you could imagine needing and lots of space

beautiful get away and very kind quick to respond hosts, would go back for sure, for the bathroom alone. cheers kevan.

This was mine and my wife’s first time away since we welcomed our baby in January. We asked my parents to join as well. We wanted something relaxing and that had all that we needed. And this stay couldn’t have been any better. It was exactly what we needed. It fit all 5 adults perfectly. It was clean and private. The view of the inlet was spectacular. We will 100% be coming back!

Beate's place was lovely. Very well cared for and tidy with a beautiful deck that overlooks the water. It was a quiet getaway - exactly what we had hoped for. Beate was very friendly, accommodating, and great instructions/communications. we would stay here again. Thanks for the great weekend Beate.

The cottage had all the amenities that I would need during my stay. It was beautifully appointed and very clean. George even installed a grab bar by the toilet for me the next day that I was there. Loved the added treats of smoked salmon and cookies. Would stay there again in a heartbeat! Thanks so much George and Marion.

We Loved our stay! House is beautiful and excellent location to explore all the sites. Lots of local tips provided by the owners too! Highly recommend!

We had a great time staying at the cottage and would love to come back! There’s a lot of natural lighting from the windows, just wish there were curtains in the main area.

We were looking for a quiet, cozy place to stay. Rachel’s place exceeded our expectations. After some unexpected travel delays coming the East Coast, we inquired about an additional night. Rachel was super helpful with extending our stay. We really appreciated her help with that. We would definitely stay again.

Gail’s cottage was an incredibly warm and welcoming place to stay. She is thoughtful about every part of the cottage with lovely decor, comfortable bedding, and a very clean space. The incredible beach was just a short walk away. She was so friendly and responsive to all my questions, I can’t wait to come back!

The Guesthouse location was fantastic. Martin was a friendly and very helpful host, even lending use of his canoes for exploring Sproat Lake. The house itself was also fantastic, with loads of space and everything you need. Space to eat and relax outside in the lovely surroundings was lovely. Would definitely recommend.

My family had a great stay at Louise’s cottage. Easy to find and really lovely layout. The kids were excited to sleep in the loft bedroom on the second level and I was pleased there was a door to the bedroom to keep noise out in the evenings! The other two bedrooms on the main level are very comfortable and far apart from each other. There’s a small backyard off the deck, a rustic bridge over a stream and then Little Trib beach. We had a blast going to and from easily during our stay and knew ahead of time that the beach is considered “clothing optional” but Louise was kind enough to add this detail into our checking in information among some other helpful facts. We didn’t have any issues while we were in the cabin and felt all the details were thought of including everything you’d need to start a fire in the wood stove. We would absolutely stay again!

The cottage was right on the water with a beautiful view. The large windows made the space feel big and provided an unobstructed view of the water. We saw birds, ducks, and seals!!!! The host was very friendly and responsive and took care of everything we needed right away. We would highly recommend!

We loved our stay in Leesa’s cottage! There were so many relaxing places to sit outside to enjoy her beautiful flowers and the peaceful surroundings. Would definitely recommend!
