We loved the accommodations. Bed was so comfy. View was amazing. We explored the trail loop. Stunning ocean views on the trail. Make sure you have all the groceries you need. They only have a small general store. If you love nature, this is the place. The hosts responded quickly to our messages.

This is a beautiful cosy waterfront property. The unit is well-stocked with everything required to have a comfortable stay. The patio furniture is wonderful to sit out and have a coffee, read and take in all the sights. Our minor concerns were addressed rapidly with the hosts and their communication is excellent. Wonderful stay!

River Raven Retreat was beautiful. It was probably one of the cleanest places I’ve been to. The place was exactly like the pictures posted. I will definitely return when I’m back in Port Renfrew. It was well stocked and you really only need to bring your personal things. Absolutely a wonderful place

The place was amazing. Views are breathtaking to wake up each morning and watch the fog rolling through while drinking my morning coffee. The hardest part of my stay was I did have to go and buy laundry soap. It said it was supplied. Not at all a problem though. Everything was clean. Not spotless but still very clean.

Stunning views from balcony, kitchen, dining table and living room. Beautiful getaway along the rugged coast. Stayed in October. Advice to other non-summer guests, gas up before you come and bring groceries with you. Provisioning is sparse. But the Renfrew Pub served us well. Loved the fireplace!!

A spacious and comfortable property with a deck overlooking the bay - very relaxing and peaceful. The area is quite remote, but there are useful facilities like a gas station and small convenience shop- it’s probably best to stock up before you arrive. Great places to eat nearby like the Renfrew Pub . We had a fantastic stay - thank you .

River Raven Retreat is a gem. Although it is not a large cottage, it feels spacious because the ceilings are so high, and because it is flooded with light. It is spotlessly clean, thoughtfully decorated and cozy, with a remarkably well-equipped kitchen. The beds are very comfortable, and each bedroom has a very large closet. The bathroom is very well set up. Best of all is the view, which is extraordinary; so breathtaking and special, in fact, that my sister and I had difficulty tearing ourselves away from the balcony to go out and enjoy Port Renfrew. Our dealings with the owners were very good. If you choose to stay here, you will be very glad you did. Most highly recommended!

The apartment has a fantastic outlook and was in a great location. The Renfrew pub was an excellent option but Haliwoods fish and chips is a must do. Fresh Halibut and wild salmon .. amazing .

This location was beautiful and had everything we needed! The only issue was, that it was obvious that the floors had not been cleaned, but that is more on the cleaning crew than the Vrbo owners. Thank you sharing your beautiful location!
