Lovely getaway
The location is great, easy to access, nice interior, and well-equipped. Only downside is the lack of coffee for enjoying a morning cup with the beautiful view

Great Halfmoon Bay Getaway!
Every fall we head to the Sunshine Coast for a little break from the business of city life - this stay did not disappoint! We had several slow mornings with coffee, watched the stars from the hot tub, enjoyed a family movie night in the loft and endlessly explored the beach and beautiful trails around the area. The cabin is private an quiet, it worked well with two adults and our 12-year old, we hope to come back!

Quiet Retreat in Halfmoon Bay
The location is surrounded by forest, very private and extremely quiet. The private hot tub was great! The studio exceeded our expectations, and it just as nice in person as it is in the photos. We would definitely stay again!

This place was amazing!
Heather and Bob were very responsive and if you’re looking for the perfect little getaway this is your place. Nestled in the trees and quiet, close to the beach. Great location, highly recommend.

A dream escape!
Words cannot even express what a wonderful little dream escape this place was for us. It's modern and clean and embedded perfectly within nature. The design is beautiful. Our hosts Heather and Bob were top notch and got back to us immediately with any questions we had while we stayed. This place was so perfectly perfect that we want to make it an annual trip to get away. It was so perfect in fact, that my partner proposed while we were there! We will definitely be coming back here.

Amazing location, beautiful home
We stayed 6 nights in Studio ISO. The home is amazing! It’s a beautiful, modern, airy home with all the amenities. The setting is spectacular. Nestled in the forest, very private, with views of Sargeant Bay. I loved going to bed and waking up feeling like I was sleeping amongst the trees & stars. I highly recommend this property and I look forward to staying here again. Thank you Heather & Bob for sharing your beautiful home.

What a lovely weekend
Such a lovely weekend away, the house is just stunning! Heads up there’s no AC and we couldn’t find a switch for the ceiling fan but the trees keep it shady! I would most definitely stay there again, they had everything we needed for a blissful weekend!

Relaxing and Idyllic
This was a great property with beautiful surroundings, perfect to just unwind and relax. Heather and Bob were flexible and accommodating. It's a very bright place without much in the way of window coverings, so if you're a late sleeper, you may want a mask. And the upper loft is accessed by a ladder, so you'd want a bit of agility to go up there. As a "pro tip", the TV is up in the loft, so if you want to watch things on the main floor, bring a laptop and/or monitor (that's what we did) - or just enjoy the nature. We loved it, and would stay again!
