Cottage vacation rentals in Shirley

We have stayed at this place a few times now and always enjoy our visit. It’s perfect for a big group, has a well stocked kitchen, a cozy fireplace and a wonderful hot tub with views of the beautiful yard. Will be back next year!

This was our second time at Dave & Amanda’s place so there wasn’t much communication needed as we knew how to settle right in! This place is lovely, has everything we need to be comfy and check out for a few days. It’s quiet, peaceful and cozy. The dishes were all clean, there were no dusty corners or cobwebs anywhere, it’s a really well cared for place.

we spent the weekend for my sisters birthday with a group of girls, comfortable setting, getting up early and watching the ocean and exploring the trails near by was wonderful. We will totally be back, even better than pictured!

Always amazing to stay in Sooke Harbour Marina and Resort that is my second time I highly recommended..

We loved our stay here! The cabin is beautifully designed and so cozy with the fireplace and heated bathroom floors. We were able to prepare a great meal using the BBQ and kitchen essentials provided. There are some beautiful hikes in the area (Mystic beach!) and an amazing cafe, Shirley Delicious, is right at the top of the road to the cabin. This is the perfect place to unwind and relax, thank you so much Melodie!

Michael’s cottage is an exceptional place in an absolutely perfect location. The main floor of the house is amazing with breath-taking views of Shawnigan Lake. It’s incredibly calm, serene and quiet and the perfect place to cook and relax after a day of hiking. Sitting in the hot tub, overlooking the lake and surrounded by over a foot of snow was an incredible feeling. Everything about our stay was great. Thank you Michael!

A lovely little cabin. They were very accommodating to us and will definitely come back when they’ve completed all their finishing touches!

We loved our stay at this cute cottage, right by the lake and it was exactly the private getaway we needed, 10 min drive to Goldstream provincial park as well. Jacquie was always helpful and responsive, would definitely stay here again.

Karen's place was awesome! A private little cabin walkable to the ocean, beautiful views within the complex (this is a neighbourhood of other similar cabins), within walking distance to the restaurants and cafes in the area. It was a great launching point for us to go to sombrio, botanical beach and other points of interest in the area. It was comfy, clean and spacious. Easy lock box check in. We'd certainly recommend and stay again.

Richard and Rebecca are some of the best hosts I’ve ever had! So lovely, beyond helpful abc accommodating and their home is so beautiful and in such a great location! Highly reccomend if you’re in the South Island area!

Lovely property with beautiful surroundings and private dock to enjoy the lake.

Cozy stay :) Jason gave us a heads up that the power in the town was out several hours before our arrival and provided us with updates every hour. He gave us the opportunity to change our plans if needed. We are happy we ended up deciding to still come because the power came back very shortly after arriving. The house heated back up quickly and we had a wonderful time going to some of the places Jason recommended.

We loved this place! Definitely worth it and relaxing. Sean was very attentive and friendly. We are already thinking when to come back!

This won’t be surprising because it’s been said in every review. This place is amazing. To have an acre and a half of private, oceanfront property is rare. We loved everything. Sitting on the deck with a glass of wine listening to the waves come in was sublime. Corinne is for sure the quickest, friendliest, most generous host I’ve encountered through Airbnb. Bathrooms had great water pressure. When we had a little downtime, the TV was big and fantastic. The hikes around the area are just top notch. What people haven’t mentioned though is Corinne doesn’t have a lengthy ‘clean to do list’ for when you leave. I also think people are walking away from Airbnb’s due to price gouging. This place is crazy reasonable and I will come again! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us!

We couldn’t recommend Kevin’s place enough. Perfect location for a relaxing getaway on the beautiful Salt Spring Island. We felt right at home and the space was perfect for travelling with our dogs. The cottage is clean, spacious, comfortable. Will definitely stay again!

We loved everything about the rustic west coast cabin and would highly recommend to others looking for a peaceful glamping experience. The property is very private and super quick access to the beach, just a quick scramble away! We especially enjoyed the cozy fire, ambience of the lights & the sounds of the stream. Overall just a very magical weekend getaway!

The house was perfect for our family of 4. We loved the location, and the area was quiet and relaxing. This is a great get away to nature.

The cottage was absolutely perfect for our family weekend getaway! We had everything we needed and more. The location and view were amazing. Thank you!! We will be back!

He’s a good guy and always ready to respond when you contact him. His dad is awesome and very friendly. I was even wishing he was my dad at some point.

Had an amazing time at this cute cottage! Only thing was any place that we wanted to walk to had to be along a pretty busy street, which made the beach not as walkable as we’d hoped.

Thank you Lesha for a wonderful stay. The private cottage had everything we needed and more. We loved that we could take in the beautiful lake view from the dock, the deck, and from inside the cabin. It was a treat to have a kayak to enjoy the lake by water. Shawnigan lake and the Cowichan valley is a beautiful place with so much to explore (great restaurants, produce/products from local farms, walking/hiking/mountain biking and quaint shops. We hope to stay again.

Emily's place was cozy and welcoming and felt just like a cottage should and the fireplace was a really nice touch for those rainy nights. She was friendly and helpful with answering any questions that I had. I would happily stay here again

We absolutely loved our stay. The house was clean and spacious, and it was very atmospheric and representative of the location. Speaking of which, Port Renfrew is delightful: relaxed, remote, surrounded by beautiful forests and coasts, with amazing trails to explore during the daytime and great restaurants to return to in the evening. The only downside to our stay was that it was too short.

Beautiful stay at in Sooke. Waking up to the views of the meadow and river was so perfect. Enjoyed leisurely hikes at the Sooke potholes (5 mins drive away) and East Sooke Park (15-20mins) Highly recommend for getaway and reset.
