I have found my happy place
Our hosts, Don and Sylvia were so gracious and down to earth we felt we knew them for a very long time , not just 5 days. The cottage was charming, homey and had everything one could possibly ask for. The beach front location awesome. We felt as one with nature high in the tree tops with eagles and other birds. Can't say enough good things about our wonderful getaway. Have already made arrangements to come back in the fall.

Relaxing time
We stay one week at Sylvias Cottage. We have a relaxed time. Eveything was as described and shown on the photos. Our expectation was satisfied. We enjoy the deck and the opportunity to go down to the beach. Sylvia was available if required. We would like to come back.

Beautiful spot!
We really enjoyed walking down to the beach and finding clams, oysters, and little crabs. The house close to the city of Powell river and we enjoyed many beautiful hikes in the area. The property was quiet and the house had everything we needed inside. We loved the area and can’t wait to come back!

Lovely piece of Powell River paradise!
We stayed at Don and Sylvia's place in mid-July - it was wonderful! A true escape from our busy lives, we're finally coming back from a vacation feeling relaxed. We had a wonderful time exploring the many lakes, the great food and mountain biking trails - and - just chilling on the lovely deck overlooking the ocean. We are looking forward to visiting again in future!

A quiet and lovely getaway
We stayed at this cottage for three nights, a small anniversary getaway. It was perfect! So nice to be able to look out the front windows onto the ocean. So nice to have that sense of solitude and deep quiet, yet 10 minutes from Powell River shopping. We enjoy cooking, and found the kitchen was very well equipped for our cooking style, with good quality pots and pans, sharp knives, a gas stove, and a variety of coffee-making appliances! Sylvia and Don live nearby and were always attentive, responding quickly to any requests we made (and there were a few!) yet otherwise leaving us to enjoy the privacy of the cottage and waterfront. We definitely intend to stay here again in future, when heading to the Sunshine Coast.

Relaxing getaway
Sylvia and Don were amazing hosts! My husband and I stayed with our 19 year old and our large dog. We all felt welcomed and were incredibly comfortable in Sylvia’s cozy cabin. It was perfect for relaxing and exploring beautiful Powell River. The view and beach access were amazing, even in December. We will definitely return!

Terrific Getaway!
This Cabin in the woods is the perfect spot to come and unwind. More like a house, it was easily large enough for our family of 4 plus dog and very nicely reno'ed. The huge deck out front overlooking the salish sea is amazing, and being surrounded by evergreens gives a truly woodsy feel. Will be booking again for another trip to PR. Highly recommend!

We had a very peaceful weekend at this cottage. It is a one level, two bedroom suite with nice views of the ocean. We enjoyed sitting on the deck watching the crazy red/orange colours of the moon! Sylvia and Don were warm and wonderful hosts. Thank you for having us!

Prettier than the pictures!
This is such a lovely property, and a great place to escape--gorgeous views and nice steady breeze with afternoon shade during what has been a warm summer. Sylvia and her husband were both very welcoming. The kitchen is fully supplied, which made it easier to take advantage of having breakfast and dinner in the evenings on the deck. The suite is very dog friendly, and our dogs loved from which hanging out on the deck and watching the squirrels race up and down the Douglas firs.
