My adult son and I had a wonderful stay at Geraldine's clean, modern and relaxing suite. The beds were comfy and the kitchen was very well-equipped with good quality small appliances, knives, cookwear, glasswear and dishes as well as supplies. Geraldine made us feel quite welcome and like special guests. The patio and view out over the gardens and forest were lovely, and the neighbourhood was safe and quiet. If we come back to this area, we will definitely stay here again!

This cottage is genuinely in a class of its own. The location is central to everything being close to trails, shopping, beach and all else the island has to offer. The hosts thought of every detail including locally made scones as a welcome gift. The cottage backs up to a forested area that makes you feel like you’re nearest neighbor is miles away. The cleanliness was impeccable.

We travelled as a family of 4 and thoroughly enjoyed our time at Claymore Cottage. Geraldine left us a personal welcome note and scones from a local bakery upon arrival. As others have mentioned, the cottage is spotless and located at the end of a very private street. The patio in the backyard is good for relaxing while backing onto a wooded area. We used the BBQ once during our stay. The kitchen is well equiped with all bowls, plates, utensils and other supplies/appliances. The skylights in the kitchen let in lots of natural light. The AC is adjustable to your preferred temperature. Beds were very comfortable and lots of towels and linens available. There's a washer/dryer which is very convenient after a day at the beach. Beach towels and 2 beach chairs were also available for our use. Location of the cottage is also convenient to drive north, south or even west on the island. We will definitely book this cottage again if we are ever back on Vancouver Island.

Qualicum Beach Cozy Cottage - everything as expected

3 adults stayed here for 7 days to rest, play some golf and tennis, and to just explore the area's hikes and markets. You are a short ride from the beaches, if that is the reason for your visit, but there are other things to do as well. The cottage is comfortable and has what is needed. Thank you Geraldine and Kris.

Beyond the Expected

Anyone looking for a great stay on Vancouver Island should consider this wonderful place. Located on quiet cut de sac up against a forest, this cottage is outfitted with all the comforts of home, i.e., complete kitchen, modern appliances, comfy beds, and clean as a whistle. The hosts we're prompt and cooperative in permitting me to charge the electric car overnight, which was a big help. Loved it!
