Don and Sylvia’s place is absolutely beautiful—fully equipped, spotless, and incredibly cozy. We had a wonderful stay, and it was so peaceful being right by the ocean. They were warm, welcoming hosts, and we truly appreciated their hospitality. Thank you—we hope to return someday!

Awesome place!!!!

We had a marvellous stay - so much so that we stayed an extra day! Hosts were so accommodating to us and our dogs. Facilities are beautiful. Fully stocked with everything you need for a vacation. We came from Campbell River for a few days to visit friends and every single place was close-by! Will definitely highly recommend and will stay again!

Great space, beautiful nature and amazing hosts

Couldn't have asked for a better weekend. Thank you to Sylvia and Don for the space. Warm floors and great coffee alone would make this a great stay, but add to that ocean view, well stocked kitchen and even bowls for the dog. Thank you and hope we get to visit Powell River again.

Felt like home

What a wonderful place to stay. It was clean and had everything you needed to have a comfortable time. Sat at the table, looking out over the water, watching the dolphins and walked down to the beach with Eagles soaring over our heads. You couldn’t ask for a more beautiful spot. The cottage was so well stocked and so well cared for. Our family really enjoyed our time. Highly recommended

Cozy cottage for our short stsy

This is a lovely cottage with lots of amenities including very convenient laundry facilities. It was too cold, rainy and windy to really enjoy the waterfront location but would like to return in nicer weather. Our only problem was getting the TV to work properly but Sylvia tried her best to help with that.

I have found my happy place

Our hosts, Don and Sylvia were so gracious and down to earth we felt we knew them for a very long time , not just 5 days. The cottage was charming, homey and had everything one could possibly ask for. The beach front location awesome. We felt as one with nature high in the tree tops with eagles and other birds. Can't say enough good things about our wonderful getaway. Have already made arrangements to come back in the fall.

We stay one week at Sylvias Cottage. We have a relaxed time. Eveything was as described and shown on the photos. Our expectation was satisfied. We enjoy the deck and the opportunity to go down to the beach. Sylvia was available if required. We would like to come back.

Beautiful spot!

We really enjoyed walking down to the beach and finding clams, oysters, and little crabs. The house close to the city of Powell river and we enjoyed many beautiful hikes in the area. The property was quiet and the house had everything we needed inside. We loved the area and can’t wait to come back!

Lovely piece of Powell River paradise!

We stayed at Don and Sylvia's place in mid-July - it was wonderful! A true escape from our busy lives, we're finally coming back from a vacation feeling relaxed. We had a wonderful time exploring the many lakes, the great food and mountain biking trails - and - just chilling on the lovely deck overlooking the ocean. We are looking forward to visiting again in future!

A quiet and lovely getaway

We stayed at this cottage for three nights, a small anniversary getaway. It was perfect! So nice to be able to look out the front windows onto the ocean. So nice to have that sense of solitude and deep quiet, yet 10 minutes from Powell River shopping. We enjoy cooking, and found the kitchen was very well equipped for our cooking style, with good quality pots and pans, sharp knives, a gas stove, and a variety of coffee-making appliances! Sylvia and Don live nearby and were always attentive, responding quickly to any requests we made (and there were a few!) yet otherwise leaving us to enjoy the privacy of the cottage and waterfront. We definitely intend to stay here again in future, when heading to the Sunshine Coast.

Relaxing getaway

Sylvia and Don were amazing hosts! My husband and I stayed with our 19 year old and our large dog. We all felt welcomed and were incredibly comfortable in Sylvia’s cozy cabin. It was perfect for relaxing and exploring beautiful Powell River. The view and beach access were amazing, even in December. We will definitely return!
