Vacation rentals with a kayak in Howe Sound

My Family and I had a wonderful stay at Gabriel's property. We were a group of 8 adults and 2 children, and we all fit comfortably inside his home. There was a lot of seating available to dine together as a family, and a lot of separate areas for when we wanted some time for ourselves. The kids enjoyed exploring the beaches for different sea creatures when the tide was low. I would recommend water shoes or something more sturdy than flip flops. The sandy areas created strong suction against our soles, and there are a lot of rocks and shells around the shore area. During high tide, we were visited by some sea lions in the distance. The kitchen was well equipped. We cooked many of our meals and there were ample pots, pans, seasonings, plates and cutlery available for our use. The property was clean, and it good condition. Plenty of towels were provided for the beach and hot tub. I would recommend this property for large groups who want a peaceful beach vacation.

The house is comfortable and beautifully decorated, with an amazing location to top it off. Barb was lovely to communicate with and was very responsive with any questions we had. Great for a girls weekend away or a family vacation, there is something for everyone. We will happily stay there again!

We have stayed in many vacation rentals over the years. Gwen and Chris were by far the most helpful of any hosts we have had. Gwen gave us lots of ideas for activities and actually delivered fresh seafood for us several times. Chris transported their kayaks to a local lake for us (and came back to retrieve them later). They both went above above and beyond. We hope to return to this beautiful area, and we would definitely stay in this this home again.

We came down to run a grad retreat for our youth program. Steve went above and beyond to make us feel welcome by decorating for the special occasion and leaving us with yummy goodies. We loved all the amenities, especially the outdoor spaces. Thank you for being such a great communicative host! We will be back!

Lovely woodland cabin, very private! Just off the Sunshine Coast Highway, but you can't hear the cars once your inside. Very well stocked kitchen, sharp knives and everything you need to cook a meal or three. Responsive, proactive owners that are sharing their space with you, would definitely recommend.

Beautiful home for our group retreat with everything we could ask for and more - huge screen TVs and amazing sound system, wine cooler, fire pit, yoga mats, candles, natural gas bbq grill, two full kitchens, luxurious shower and bathroom with heated floors, large backyard, and a short walk to the beach. Easy to find, very clean and modern design, and lots of space to park.

This is a gorgeous place. Immaculate. John quickly responded to any questions. Modern design, three levels, fully stocked kitchen with all the utensils and spices. Someone left a bottle of vodka which we liked. Kitchen appliances are a high end manufacturer. Stovetop is induction which was cool to work with. The shower had the overhead waterfall, body sprays and a hand-held sprayer. We used the hot tub a lot. There are two bedrooms upstairs, separated by a sliding door, and two downstairs. Beds were quite comfortable. There are 68 steps from the street down to the front door. I found that if I engaged my core and legs the entire ascent, it became less burdensome. If you have any orthopedic issues, you should consider. With that said, there is a device/tram/funicular that will move your luggage/groceries from the street level down to the back door of the house. Perhaps the best aspect of the house is the view. Just stunning and relaxing all the time, day and night.

It was an enchanting experience that lived up to all the beautiful photos on the listing . True BC West Coast experience. We will be back soon for sure.

We absolutely loved our stay at Michelle’s place! The surroundings were stunning, with a beautiful water view and a lovely garden that made the experience even more special. Michelle was an incredible host, very kind, responsive, and thoughtful. She went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable, even staying up late just to welcome us and ensure we had everything we needed. When we requested extra bakeware, she provided it right away. The home felt cozy and inviting, truly a home away from home. We highly recommend staying here!

We had a great long weekend at Gloria’s cottage. The marina was beautiful to look over and the general store was convenient for basics. The staff were friendly and very helpful for recommendations around the island.

We really enjoyed our stay and would love to come back in the summer. It was a very comfortable house for our large family. Beautiful area, very easy to find and get back and forth.

The cabin of your childhood dreams…sit back, relax, enjoy the lake and connect with family/friends. North Lake has fabulous swimming and almost no bugs. The cabin has a lovely view and lots of different areas to sleep. Lynne was a great host, very attentive and communicative. We had a lovely time, thanks Lynne.

Christine’s place is absolutely gorgeous! The entire stay was just perfect. Christine’s home is in a quiet area, we spent many days on the patio watching all the wild life…bald eagles, seals, whales. So relaxing! And when we wanted to do some shopping & get dinner, her home is just a short 20-30 minute drive to Vancouver. She has kayaks & life vests for guests, it was great & the first time my family ever kayaked. Christine was very kind & attentive too. If we had a question or wanted a recommendation on activities/restaurants, she responded very quickly. I would HIGHLY recommend her place. I hope we can come back to visit soon!

We really enjoyed our stay at Pages, the location was beautiful. We enjoyed renting kayaks and exploring the bay. The nearby park also had some great hiking trails and beach. The cabin had everything you needed and the wood burning stove was nice to have on the chilly nights. It is about 15 minutes to the amenities in town and the ferry so not the closest if that’s important to you but we thought their little store had most necessities and didn’t mind.

Mina was incredibly kind and thoughtful. Her rental has amazing views and is very walkable. Thank you for the stay!

Fabulous views from everywhere. Good location too!!

LOVED this gem of a retreat. I mean how can you not love a sauna, kayak, hot tub, fire pit, and a spacious cabin that overlooks port moody. I wish I could stay for a month! And so cool, you take a boat to get to the cabin. I’ve been telling everyone at my work about this place!

Good

Thank you, we finally got to stop and smell the literal lilacs on our typical quick rush through town. Great place

We loved our stay and wished we had planned a longer trip. It was so peaceful and beautiful. We can’t wait to come back.

Beautiful, modern cabins that were very well stocked, felt like luxury. Inside and out in the fire pit area, we had everything we needed and more. The hosts left extra touches that were very welcoming. Fairly quiet and peaceful area.

We had such a great time at Carraholly Retreat! The boat ride over was super easy, and the place itself was so cute and cozy. We loved the clean hot tub and spent a lot of time relaxing in the sauna - it was such a treat. Perfect spot for a quick getaway from the city. We’ll definitely be back and would recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful escape!

Sarah's cabin was beyond what we had hoped for. A perfect space for our family of six. The cabin is full of rustic charm while being cozy and comfy. It was outfitted with everything we needed plus more. The multiple outdoor spaces allowed us to enjoy the awesome setting from every angle. We spent much time on the water with our boat, Standup Paddle boards and the kayaks available. Being off the grid took some adjustment but was a healthy thing. We got into board games, shared cooking and exploring the neighbourhood. We'd love to return.

We had an amazing weekend at the cabin! Cheyenne was incredibly helpful, and we truly appreciated the flexibility. We highly recommend this beautiful location and can’t wait to return on our next visit to the Sunshine Coast. Thanks again!
