Oceanfront log cabin with sweeping ocean, mountain and sunset vistas

Our iconic 60's log Cabin is a year round getaway with all the modern conveniences and a unique country cabin feel on .9 acre lot. Tide pools and rocky beach in front of the Cabin. Swimming options in front or at near by pebble and sandy beaches.

Wrap-around sundeck complete with Webber BBQ, picnic bench, market umbrella and ample seating. Comfy furniture expansive views and large fireplace. Observe our resident feathered friends including bald eagles, herons, gulls, kingfishers, woodpeckers, chickadees and juncos.

A vista of majestic snow capped mountains, glittering sunlight and long magenta sunsets awaits you. Lapping waves, resident sea lions and wind soughing through fir, oak and arbutus trees provide you with nature’s lulling symphony.

A cozy haven to enjoy winter storms, just over an hour from Mount Washington, the Cabin’s living area includes vaulted ceiling, glowing wood beams, swivel mounted flat screen HD T.V. antique brick fireplace with thermostat controlled gas insert.

The Cabin delivers an authentic ambiance along with all the modern conveniences including three bedrooms (queen, queen and bunk bed), one bathroom (tub/shower) and a large living-dining-kitchen area with spectacular views.

From October through May you will see and hear sea lions passing close to shore daily. This is one of only a few properties on Vancouver Island with a southwest exposure.

The kitchen is well stocked and we ask that our VBRO guests kindly replace items that they deplete during their stay.

Located at the end of a cul-de-sac the property has a large level lawn with plenty of room for boccie, croquet, badminton, frisbee and more. The quite streets nearby are ideal for leisurely family walks to Beachcomber Park, Beachcomber Marina or around "The Point”.

If your preference is to enjoy all that Northwest Bay has to offer from the water, information regarding local kayak rentals and guided tours is available.

The Cabin is only 10 minutes from Fairwinds Golf Course and Marina.

Scenic peaceful spot

This was a perfect location for our stay in this area. Beautiful sunsets from the deck. Lots of animal activity with deer stopping by every day including a mother with 2 fawns. Bald eagles, herons, seals and rabbits were all in the area.

We couldn’t be happier with our stay in this lovely, roomy cabin with a fantastic view out of large windows and from a spacious deck. With a well supplied kitchen - these owners have made an excellent effort to supply everything someone could need. We will definitely return someday and highly recommend this home.

We came as a family to grieve the loss of a loved one. Came from the Yukon, Idaho, Okanagan, and Victoria. It was sweetly comfortable space be together. To laugh, cry play and remember. Amenities were complete and first rate. As if this was our home. Brian was a compassionate responsive host.

Lakeside cabin

The cabin was comfortable and had even more amenities than we needed. The tidal pools were great for exploring and learning and the wildlife sitings were a joy to see. Next time, I'll remember to wear socks or pants when walking in the long grass to save my ankles from the gnat bites. We would definitely stay here again!

Nature Therapy

This cabin is in a wonderful setting. We relished hours a day on the semi shaded deck with mountain views beyond the lapping waves, cool breezes, grazing deer and bald eagle sightings. The interior is cozy and kept beautifully. Beds are comfortable. Everything we needed in good working order. We took day trips to Gabriola Island, Cathedral Grove, Milner House and Garden, Coombs, Parksville and Qualicum. Terrific vacation.

Sunny, Relaxing Holiday

We had a lovely second visit to the Pan Abode. We brought our bikes and explored all the public access beaches in the neighbourhood including Wall Beach across the bay. Like last year, the cabin was spotless & the sunsets were beautiful. We all enjoyed the spaciousness of the property and the huge deck - great for reading, eating & playing cards. The children (7 & 11) swam several times a day. Thanks for having us!

We had a great stay. Cabin is clean, and comfortable. The setting on the water is truly amazing.

We thoroughly enjoyed our 4 day stay at the cabin...and our first visit to Vancouver Island. The location outside Nanoose Bay is great for exploring the island, although a bit farther from Victoria itself, we spent more time on the nearby beaches and in the forests of the interior. The setting is incredible, private and right on the water with sightings of birds, seals and dolphins...and amazing sunsets. The cabin has everything, including comfortable indoor and outdoor space, and we were very pleased with the layout and available space for the square footage. It is up to date, clean and very comfortable. We hope to return some day.

Relaxing and easy with a breathtaking view

This place is just what you want when you say relaxing vacation.Had great weather and relaxed well in the cabin with everything you need at your fingertips. Comfy beds, easy kitchen and amazing scenery from all directions. Saw the pod of orcas again this year...soooo exciting along with lots of eagles in the tall trees. Played Bocci and Croquet for hours. And love eating dinner every night on the deck at the picnic table rail enjoying that view. We will be back next year. Thanks again!

Perfect vacation by the ocean

My friends and I loved our stay at Brian's cottage! It's beautifully located, right on the ocean: we appreciated being able to swim every day by just walking out the door and down the hill to the water. The sunsets are amazing, needless to say! The cottage itself is very neat, and well-equipped. We cooked every night and never had trouble finding what we needed. We rented some kayaks, on Brian's recommendation, and got to visit some seals nearby, which was a real treat! Would return for sure!
