We enjoyed everything about it. We looked at rebooking in early May but $50/night increase is disappointing. Peaceful & relaxing.

Family Stay
A real gem of a property. The hosts were great to communicate with and went above and beyond to ensure everything was catered for. The cottage is unique and has a lot of character. The location was also perfect for exploring the mid to north of the island. Our kids loved the property also - smart TV, patio area and plenty of places to hide! Highly recommended.

Gorgeous cottage
We had the best time at the Cottage! We stayed there for 3 night with our little family, including 2 children 5 and under. The house was sparkling clean and so thoughtful decorated and furnished! It is cozy and comfortable. We enjoyed BBQing and eating outside, loved seating on the patio listening to the birds while the kiddos were playing. The location is so quiet and peaceful, yet only minutes away from all major stores and highways. We definitely wish we had stayed there longer and would love to go back. Feeling very privileged that we had the chance to stay at the cottage!

Perfect vacation home
We found a very nice cottage with perfect equipment in new condition. We were delighted with the wonderful and very well-kept outdoor area and the plants. It is an absolutely quiet location with excellent connections to the infrastructure of Nanaimo and Lantzville. For us it was a great starting point for excursions to beaches, waterfalls, hikes or whale watching tours. The nearest supermarket is 5 minutes away, the ferry 20 minutes.

We had the most wonderful time in our eight day stay in this cottage in the woods. It is a beautiful place. It is new, with every detail as luxurious as can be. It was immaculately clean, serenely quiet, and equipped with everything you could need. Although it is tucked away in the beautiful forest, it is only minutes away from major roads, shopping and restaurants, and the scenic harbour and hiking trails of Nanaimo, and the places of interest from Duncan up to Parksville. We could not have been more delighted with this accommodation.

Beautifully decorated and immaculate. We loved the kitchen (very well stocked with new utensils etc) and the fireplace was perfect to curl up in front of and watch a movie. 5 stars!

Restful vacay @cottageinthecedars
Michelle was amazing at giving us all the information we needed. She also gave us recommendations of fun towns in the area to visit. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would have stayed an extra night had we been able to get a spot going back to Vancouver on the ferry. Michelle was more than happy to assist us had that been the case. Everything you could possibly need is thought of in this lovely tucked away home. Thank you again! Jackie & Rob

Peaceful home away from home!
This cute little cottage nestled in the trees was an amazing place to stay. It was like a 5 star hotel and it had everything we needed. We really enjoyed the private patio with a bbq. We sat out and drank our wine and barbecued 5 out of 7 nights. It was 30 plus degrees during our stay but the cottage was very comfortable. This location is very accessible to all amenities in Nanaimo. We visit Nanaimo multiple times a year and look forward to staying again.

A bit of heaven
My husband, sister and I came to Vancouver Island to look for a place to retire so this was the perfect location for us to stay to check out the Nanaimo area. The cottage could not be more beautiful and it was like a home away from home. We had everything we could have possibly needed. The cottage was nicer than a 5 star hotel and in the most beautiful neighborhood. We met several neighbors while out walking and they were all so nice, friendly and helpful. I could stay there forever!! Will definately be back! Our host, Michelle, was so sweet!

Very enjoyable cottage in a private location.
We really enjoyed our stay here and would easily choose to stay again. We were visiting family for July in a other part of Lantzville, so used this place as our home base. It was very comfortable and secluded, giving us a quiet place to retreat in the evening. The cottage itself is stylishly decorated and very modern. I’d recommend it to anyone wanting to explore this part of the island.
