The Caboose

Lovely 1-bedroom cottage with ocean and mountain views.
One of Bowen’s favorite Cottages. Fondly known as the ‘Caboose’ as it`s a separate living space from the main house located at the back of the property.

A 10 minute drive across the Island from the ferry and the amenities of Snug Cove. Close to Tunstall Bay Beach, the oceanside trail and beaches in The Cape and one of the west side access trails to hike up Mt Gardner.
Suitable for a quiet retreat for singles or a couples only.

580 sf coach house is clean and comfortable with one bedroom, full bathroom (separate shower and an oversized tub), kitchenette with open dining and living room space. Totally private and peaceful back patio area. The only sound maybe the owls in the forest behind, a few neighbouring chickens (no rooster) and an occasional frog visiting the pond in garden below. Front deck has panoramic views of Mount Gardner to the north with ocean and Sunshine Coast mountain range views sunset west.

My hubby and I loved the location and the space was perfect. We really enjoyed the fireplace and how it was set up to be lit. Very quiet and peaceful with beautiful views of nature. The host was very quick to reply.

This is an exceptional property - 5-stars on every count. The cottage is fully equipped and nicely designed. There is a view from every window as the cottage is surrounded by tiered, sculpted gardens and an ocean view. I don't have a car and the owner offered to shuttle me from the ferry which made this dream trip possible. Definitely want to return, and know I'll have to book way in advance as this is a deservedly popular spot!

We had such a lovely, cozy time. The weather was rainy but it lended itself to many a fire in the fireplace. Every window held a beautiful view. It was very private and welcoming.
Appreciated the wood provided

This was such a beautiful spot! As a solo traveler with some quiet time in mind, I appreciated how private the caboose house was while still being walking distance to the beach and a short drive to more activity. It was a cute home with a very cozy, cottage atmosphere that reminded me of summers on Bowen with my family. The host was excellent, very responsive and answered questions promptly. I would highly recommend this spot if you are seeking a little refuge for the weekend from the city life!
