    Wonderful Cottage by the River!
    This is a lovely cottage in a wonderful, peaceful location. The property is beautifully and lovingly maintained, the cottage is full of light and warmth, and the deck invites you to sit for hours watching the river. We enjoyed tubing and kayaking, and the fresh peaches from the peach tree. We loved it.

    Beautiful riverfront home away from home
    We have been staying here almost every year for 10 years now and we never get tired of it. This is such a beautiful home in such a fantastic location. The back deck overlooking the river is stunning. It's walking distance to downtown Courtenay for shopping and restaurants. The house itself is beautiful - beautifully decorated, comfortable furniture, and well equipped for cooking family meals. The beds are super comfortable as well. This place is really a gem.

    Great location
    Access to the puntledge and downtown Courtenay are unmatched with this house. We were on the river every day. A short walk to downtown made getting morning coffee or an evening out a breeze. When not doing that, the house had everything we needed for meals at home. Jacqueline was great for communication the whole time. We can't wait to go back!

    Family Courtenay trip 23
    We had high expectations about this stay and it exceeded it. The home was perfect the way it was and accommodated our family of 5. We all loved the river front deck, playing in the water, kayaking, closeness to town, and the July 1st festivities. Thank you to the Hosts.

    Lovely home
    Lovely, clean, and quiet property with great view of the river. Comfortable beds. Convenient to town with grocery stores and great restaurants. We enjoyed being able to water the perennials every morning! There was a musty smell when we arrived that the host explained could be because the house had been closed up for the week before, however the smell never went away. Nevertheless, we would stay here again when visiting Courtenay.

    Bright and Cheery
    Bright and cheery....loads of windows to allow for natural light. So nice to look out at the river and enjoy the sound of the birds. Everything was so nice and clean and it was evident the owners took a great deal of pride in this property. Close to town, so a very easy walk. We loved being able to jump on our bikes and cycle on the One Spot trail as well as lots of other roads. Great location. We enjoyed our stay very much!
