Beachwood Cottage

Time to Relax and Immerse Yourself in Nature

Welcome to our cottage! We are just making some ‘NEW’ changes to the website, so please check back soon. Thank you. If in the meantime you are looking to book the cottage, please use the links provided below.

Cozy and very functional cottage in a wonderful garden setting overlooking Albert Lagoon, a protected wildlife area, and the Straits of Juan de Fuca. Loved watching the birds and the shipping in the Straits. The cottage is a destination in itself.

The Cottage

About Beachwood Cottage

Beachwood cottage is fully furnished, impeccably clean, independent accommodation, with full kitchen and bathroom facilities. The 750 square foot cottage is the only dwelling on the property. It offers one bedroom with French doors opening to the private yard. A daybed located in the front room can sleep one person, or is simply a lovely place for an afternoon nap.

This quaint cottage, originally built in the 1930s, has had various upgrades over the years but never loses its original charm. It is nestled on a South sloping half acre of waterfront property, conveniently located just 15 kilometres from downtown Victoria.

The Property

Outside the Cottage

Whether you are taking in the view from the front deck, or relaxing in an adirondack chair with a good book; every aspect of the cottage is close to nature and provides a unique opportunity to enjoy what the beautiful West Coast of British Columbia has to offer while still only minutes to amenities. You can watch a tremendous array of wildlife, including resident swans nesting on the lagoon shore, river otters eating their crab dinner on the dock, cormorants drying their wings while perched on a log in the Lagoon, freighters passing in the distance, and most years we have a sighting or two of whales in the distance off the point.

The peaceful and serene lagoon is a designated bird sanctuary which is host to a vast variety of bird species including eagles, blue herons, king fishers, with seasonal visits from osprey, bufflehead ducks and so many more. Just a few minute walk down a treed road you will find 6 km of walking beach, with views of the city skyline, framed by Mount Baker.

What People Are Saying

The cottage was exactly as it was described, beautiful, private, surrounded by nature. We absolutely loved it and in fact it was like a holiday in itself. After a day of hiking and sightseeing it was great to come back to a little oasis. Not only was the cottage perfect for our needs but the setting was beautiful and it was nice sitting out on the deck enjoying nature. Our hostess was attentive and gave us great information about the surrounding area. We had some great guests too--fawns, squirrels, quail, hummingbirds. Loved it.
If you are looking for a quiet, secluded home for two to rent, this one is worth serious consideration. Only 15 minutes from the Victoria city limits, 30 minutes to the downtown harbor, located in a very rural area yet close enough to all the sights in and around Victoria that you might want to see. Well appointed, clean, comfortable - I can't think of a thing that I might have wanted that Jeannie hadn't already thought of.
We absolutely loved our stay at Beachwood Cottage. It was a quaint, quiet location right on the water. Very peaceful and private. We had fresh flowers throughout, cheese and fruit waiting for us on arrival. Morning coffee on the outdoor patio, overlooking the water, was our favourite part of the day. The cottage had plenty of amenities, washer/dryer, coffee maker, kitchen necessities, comfortable living space and very comfortable bed. Plenty of fresh air and a beautiful view. We would highly recommend the cottage and hope to return one day. Jeannie, you are a wonderful host and we thank you for your warm hospitality.
Tucked away in the trees, this is a gem of a property. The wildlife in the lagoon, on the beach and views of the marine traffic all contribute to a peaceful location. We enjoyed the patio overlooking the lagoon, and enjoyed the wood-burning stove on the cool nights. The garden and landscaping are lush and nicely maintained. The kitchen is nicely appointed, including a hot-water kettle, coffee maker and plenty of unique glassware. The bedroom is spacious and comfortable. The bathroom was cozy and clean, and the heated tile floor is a bonus. The owner has an extensive collection of books on a variety of subjects. We enjoyed every day there, and look forward to returning.
