Deep Bay Ocean Front Cottage - Private Getaway with Hot Tub

This cosy two storey cottage is a hidden gem. Enjoy a picture perfect view from any window or read a great book by the fire. Savour swimming in the sea, walking in the tide pools, strolling along the sand bar, watching the soaring eagles or relaxing in the sun. If you ever want to explore beyond the cottage, just minutes away, there is golfing, fishing, hiking, kayaking and more.

The many amenities close by include a grocery store, a liquor store, a drug store, a post office and a great art gallery/gift store. In just 20 minutes you can drive to Qualicum or Courtenay/Comox. Seascape Cottage is a fabulous find for artists and photographers alike.

Come and enjoy our little piece of paradise.

Please note… this is a cabin surrounded by trees and foliage. There will be insects in the home on occasion. Also, our drinking water is the best on the island… no need to bring bottled water. It is crisp and refreshing!

We have a gardener that will be on the property every Friday. If you feel that this will affect your privacy please feel free to let us know in advance.

There is a host in the vicinity to help you with any questions or concerns.

Wonderful Getaway
Absolutely loved this place as it was perfect for us! Location is somewhat secluded and out of the way but that's just what we were looking for. The house itself is delightful and just what we wanted. Very comfortable and homey

We had a fabulous visit this summer. The house is well stocked, the location is idyllic and the stay was restful. Hit the low tides lucky and spend a few hours on the sandbar daily. Lots of games, laughs and memories.

Private and peaceful
Driving down to this property you realize just how private it is. Million dollar views on a quiet tranquil beach. The kitchen is well equipped as we ate in most evenings, watching the wildlife both in the water and the surrounding trees. An eagles nest was our version of TV as the fledgling was learning how to fly. Binoculars and telescope are provided. The balconies were not cleaned which was a shame as it would have been lovely to sit out there in the evening with a glass of wine, but there is plenty of outdoor seating below. Hot tub was used everyday with plenty of room for all. Very enjoyable week, lots of space, lots of light

The only thing I would change are the five signs that hidden behind a bush are hard to see. Would recommend having a verbo flag in that location for people to see it. Otherwise it was fabulous!!

What a lovely property!!
Our stay was for 5 nights at this beatiful and well appointed property. My Son, Daughter in law, 2 kids (5 & 10 years old) our little dog and myself - ample room and comfy beds for all! Thank you so very much to our hosts Kathy & Joanne, for your wonderful welcome goodies, and for being so incredibly quick in responding to our issue with the hot tub (which was resoved same day!!). The view is spectacular, and your garden beautiful. Plenty of beach combing was enjoyed by the kids (and the dog!!) A mama deer and her fawn greeted us in the yard one morning whichywas a highlite for the kids!! Simply a slice of heaven - thank you again!!

Beyond expectations ,a truly unique stay
Staying in Deep Bay, British Columbia, was an unforgettable experience that exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we arrived, every detail was meticulously thought out, and the abundance of amenities made it feel like a home away from home. The thoughtful touch of sparkling wine upon arrival added a special touch to our stay. One of the highlights was sitting outside on the patio and being greeted by a curious bear, a truly unique encounter that will stay with us forever. Additionally, the sight of wild eagles soaring overhead, nesting in the area, added to the natural beauty of the surroundings.and so many seals in the area . Overall, our time in Deep Bay was nothing short of magical, and we can't wait to return.

BC coastal haven
This was a return visit to this BC haven - a beautiful home with amazing vistas of an almost private beach. Hot tub with a view of the ocean is the perfect way to relax on a grey fall evening. Beds are super comfortable for a good night’s sleep. The wood-burning fireplace draws so well, and sets the perfect backdrop for a cosy night in. Highly recommend.

Amazing Stay
From the moment we walked in and saw the view, the layout and the complimentary bottle of bubbly we knew we had made the right choice. From an 18 month old to grandparents this place worked for all. Twice daily trips to the water, the occasional hot tub and all day relaxing made for an amazing trip. The only thing that would have enhanced the experience is if "Bowser Moon" was doing a reunion show somewhere close by :-)

Peaceful Oceanfront Getaway!
We loved, loved, loved our stay at the Seascape Cottage... it just went by way too fast! The hosts and property manager were super accomodating and we all had a great time. Every bedroom had an ocean view so we could wake to gorgeous sunrises over Chrome Island every morning. All the little touches, including fantastic art, locally made soaps & beautiful pottery were very much appreciated - we had everything we needed. Beds and furniture were all super comfy and the hot tub amazing. Pure bliss!

Private oceanfront oasis
What an incredible spot. The views and the privacy were even better than we had anticipated from the website photos. Joanne and Kathy were friendly and helpful, as was Ashley. The hot tub (amazing jet power) and fireplace (draws beautifully) were wonderful bonuses. My daughter made excellent use of the telescope. The frolicking seals & lighthouse island were charming. Supplying robes for the hot tub and real wine glasses were unexpected & welcome details. Can’t wait to come back.

Epic views from an epic house
Our family of eight had the most amazing time staying in this place. With four large bedrooms, everyone had their own space. The common area is designed so well for connection reading, games, puzzles or just sitting on the window seat, watching harbour seals and listening to the waves crash metres away from you. We enjoyed cooking meals and hot tubbing, and going for walks on the beach. The beds were extremely comfortable. The place was beautiful. I can’t recommend this place with more exuberance.

Shhhh... keep it a secret.
We had a lovely, peaceful stay at this seaside cottage. It was chilly and it was king tide season, so we weren't out on the beach as much as we would've liked. BUT we didn't miss out on a thing. There are so many windows and comfortable places to sit and enjoy the scenery and wildlife. We're hesitant to share this place too widely or we'll never find an opening to return. But our hosts were so kind and wonderful that they deserve a great review. As for the details - beds are comfy, lots of pillow choices. Comfortable furniture for lounging around. Kitchen had everything we needed. Plenty of towels and the hot tub was divine. It's a small town setting and so peaceful. We didn't explore the bigger towns nearby, but we did head into Bowser for a few things and found everything we needed. Looking forward to coming to stay again.
