Wonderful

Local soaps smelled delicious. Stocked kitchen and beds that were so comfy! We had such a wonderful time playing in the lake by day and listening to the frogs sing us to sleep. Wonderful place to stay!
Good place to visit and stay with family.
They do need to replace the kitchen utensils. Or bring your own.
2ns time we stayed here. First time was newer and it was amazing. (4 years ago) This time is good but furnishings are a bit used
We enjoyed our stay there, we loved everything about this property.

The Cottages are fabulous for a getaway. The two bedrooms are completely separated with one on the uppermost floor and the other in the basement. Each bedroom has a bathroom plus there is a powder room on the middle floor.
The only issue is a lack of hand towels. For a four day visit you get 1 hand towel and 2 bath towels per full bedroom. There is no housekeeping at all during your stay, which is fine.
Quiet location with easy access to Ganges and roads around Salt Spring Island.
We've been to this property many times however there were a few snags with this trip. We asked if a playpen was available via email and phone call. We were told we would be called the day before to be informed if we could have one - they never communicated with us.
Our cottage (43) also had terrible water pressure. There was zero water coming out of the top floor bathrooms sink, and the bath trickled water - so it took 45 minutes to fill it if you wanted to use it. I informed management via email and they responded, but had no resolution for our stay. Definitely put a damper on the holiday as the spa like bath is always a highlight.

The only thing missing was a charger for the EV. Would have been nice to top up after a long day in the road to your the island and get back home

Peaceful area, nice walking trail. Kitchen was well equipped and new management are excellent communicators and happy to help. Some of the living room furniture is getting a bit worn and some paint touch ups required, but not to the point it was shabby. The tub is FABULOUS!
Excellent,clean place.family oriented.fully equipped with kitchen ,washrooms,even books .
Has TV sets in each room.
Very near from downtown and supermarkets.
Beautiful lake view.
Highly recommended for a family holiday
Love the cottage layout. So cozy and quiet. Perfect for a weekend getaway. A little disappointed in the cleanliness this time with stained/dirty sheets on one bed and a dirty shower (glass and shower head). Missed the Saltspring Coffee welcome gift so went out and bought our own! Love this resort and will be back… just hope it’s cleaner next time.
