Ganges Cottage | Oceanside Cottage in the Trees - stunningly private, yet so central!

1 Bedroom Cottage in Ganges, Salt Spring Island

This is the very best of West Coast Canada!
This romantic cottage has it all. So private, yet close to all the excitement of Ganges Harbour. The famous Saltspring Weekend Market is a 2 minute stroll away. Wonderful art galleries, restaurants, shops, pubs, studios are all within a wander from your private sanctuary in the trees. Beach access is directly on the property.
There is much to do here for all ages. On the property, there is plenty of exploring to do, and the 300 feet of private beach front to enjoy.
A vast variety of birds and other wildlife make this 4 acre property home. Watch the swans, eagles, hummingbirds, quail and other exotic birds from the beach and expansive veranda. Raccoons, otters, deer and other critters are curious, safe and plentiful.
Off the property, hiking, kayaking, sailing, golfing, fine dining, casual dining, patio drinking, swimming, shopping, scuba diving, a day at the spa, fishing, yoga, farmers markets, etc... are all close at hand.
I guarantee you will love your stay here as much as we do!

Summary: Location Centrally located and easy to get to the main strip of Salt Spring Island, we appreciated the location of this VRBO, and would recommend if you are looking for something central, walkable and easy to get too!Overall size of CabinGood size, cozy and enough space for two people to stay comfortably. Cleanliness - Understanding this is a cabin, we had lower expectations of the overall cleanliness of it. However there were certain areas that were not clean whatsoever, we have stayed in properties where there is the plumbing is similar to this one, however the stench of feces was horrible. We had to purchase car air freshners to make the place smell better. The cabin was also very dusty/grimey. The bedsheets did NOT feel clean whatsoever. BedThis was probably the worst bed we have slept on in our lives. We dreaded going to bed daily as the bed was so uncomfortable and caused a lot of back pain - the bed is also NOT fit for 2 people. There was a sofa /futon available however it was no clean and we did not feel comfortable sleeping in it.
