Orchard Cabin - A Cozy Cabin in a Peaceful Orchard Close to Ganges.

Orchard Cabin on Salt Spring Island is the perfect private retreat for artists, writers, poets, or musicians. It is also a great getaway for a romantic honeymoon or anniversary. Or bring the kids and the dog!

Peace and quiet surrounds you. Awaken in your cozy loft bed to the songbirds' serenade. Enjoy your self-prepared breakfast on the deck with freshly brewed coffee or tea. Delight in some of Salt Spring's fine locally crafted cheese or fruit preserves, wholesome baked goods, and farm-fresh eggs that you can purchase at the Tuesday or Saturday Market, a roadside farm stand, or straight from the farm!

Then make your way into Ganges Village to check out ArtCraft or browse the local shops and galleries.  Saturday morning is when Salt Spring hosts the famous Salt Spring Market. Be sure to treat yourself to lunch at one of the many unique restaurants and cafes. Don't forget to try some handmade chocolate treats at Harlan's!

If adventure is on your mind, check out fishing, scuba diving, kayaking, whale watching, biking, or hiking. Take a Studio Tour. Go on a boat tour or dinner cruise. Explore Salt Spring's history or just relax at one of the many beaches, lakes, and parks.

On your way back to the cabin, pick up some fresh seafood at The Fishery or some crab at Centennial Dock. Add to this some fresh produce from the Street Market and a bottle of wine from one of the local vineyards to make a delicious island meal. Then bask in the balmy warmth of a summer evening on the private deck at the cabin.

Have a fabulous vacation!

A very enjoyable weekend.
The property is very pretty with lots of privacy, blooming trees and a beautiful little cottage. The host was very pleasant and made the effort to drop by. I would definitely come back.

Everything was great. The cabin is well appointed. If requiring the use of the pull out couch, it is more comfortable with a foamie that the host gladly provided. We couldn't get the wifi to work, but it didn't really affect us too much. Such a lovely place and such friendly, helpful hosts. We would go back in a heartbeat.

What a quaint and cozy cabin in a peaceful orchard, just minutes from town. Well set up and had everything I needed for a couple of days of ‘getting away’.

Cute place - has wasps!
This little cabin on an orchard is adorable. Its perfectly located close to town. The cabin needs some maintenance so watch out for things like nails sticking out of walls that might grab your skin in the small quarters. We went mid-August and the whole island is busting with ripe fruit so wasps are definitely about and this cabin is located on an orchard so wasps are a plenty. There were 2 wasp nests were on the cabin and my husband got stung. Be warned and make an informed choice if you don't want to hang with wasps, especially if you have an allergy.
