Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Strathcona

Dana's place is outstanding. It is so beautiful and surrounded by nature. Her home was nothing short of immaculate - everything was so spotless and new. The beds were comfy, instructions clear, location amazing - would not hesitate to recommend to anyone. Dana was also very quick to respond to questions and was always available. 10000/10!!

My partner and our children reserved this lovely home for a retirement celebration with our in laws. The home was spacious for all six of us and our family dog and there was something for everyone to enjoy. The home is nestled in a beautiful mountainous area with lovely views from all the front windows. It's rustic yet modernized layout and structure made it the perfect place to cozy up together or spread out and enjoy some quiet time separately. It's location is close enough to many trails and beach access points to get out and explore. The hot tub, sauna and cold plunge were definitely a highlight for our Spring trip and did not disappoint.

Katy and Dave were incredible hosts - they made sure the hot tub was warm for us each day and were responsive to whatever we needed. The place itself is GORGEOUS - we didn’t leave once and were entertained the entire time, even in the rain. It was the perfect spot for a girls weekend. I would absolutely stay here again and hope to be back at some point! Can’t recommend enough.

Value for money. Best views. Amazing experience. Will go again! Stephen and Christina were very responsive and were reachable throughout our stay.

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at Lauren’s place very much. She has provided everything you might need. We were able to truly relax and enjoy ourselves mostly because there is a terrific fenced yard!

We had an amazing time here! Such a beautiful location! And Billy & Shelly made the most of the location with how they renovated the home to be the perfect AirBnB. There were also so many little touches & amenities that were greatly appreciated (treats, wine, plenty of coffee & tea, fishing gear, linens, etc). Everything was well stocked that you might need (not the barebones feeling like some other properties). Another cool thing that other hosts should take note of is their use of a tankless hot water system; more energy efficient while providing guests as much hot water as they need. (Don’t rent a place where only one guest can have a shower per evening. 😅)) They have obviously been guests elsewhere, because it shows in the way they host. Shelly was also very helpful & responsive with her communication. There were a couple minor (and unavoidable) maintenance things due to the weather that they immediately addressed (in under an hour). And then they gifted us a little tackle

We wouldn't change a word from the review we posted after our first stay.

We were in Heriot Bay for work. This location worked well. Beautiful location.

This spot is wonderful, right on the water, with easy access to the beach. This is a rocky beach but an old pair of sneakers or water shoes will ensure you can get right into the water. The sound of ocean at night is a wonderful way to relax and fall asleep. This is a small space but everything you need is here, great for 1 person or a couple. For nature lovers, Seal Bay Park is just right up the street. This location is a nice central spot with easy access to Comox, Courtney, Campbell River and Cumberland. I would definitely return to this spot :)

This is an absolutely beautiful place to stay when visiting Port McNeill. The suite is clean, bright, and welcoming, with spectacular ocean views. Kaileigh was very welcoming and responsive. This was the perfect home base for our North Island tour. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

beautiful condo with beach access, well groomed. chairs by the beach. nice firepit and furniture on deck. clean condo with 2.5 baths, sleeps several people

Our stay was incredible. The space is inviting, Tom and Heidi were very pleasant to deal with. I would love to return in the future.

We loved staying in this space, the co-hosts Sue & Maurice were so lovely and very welcoming from the moment we arrived! This space is located on a large, beautifully maintained, serene property tucked among the trees, with a river running beside the lower portion of the yard. The hosts invited us to set up a fire in their pit beside the river, and brought out all the goodies so we could roast marshmallows with our young children, who loved every moment of it. Very nice stay, we would love to come back here again.

The place was immaculate and set in beautiful surroundings. We arrived late, but Cody had already lit the fire, such a lovely touch. The beds were super comfy (a good night’s sleep is important to us), and the cabin had everything we needed. The hot tub was spotless, and the parasol was a thoughtful addition for sunny days. The ducks were a real highlight, each with their own little personality. We loved feeding them (hopefully not too much!) and watching them line up by the hot tub waiting for more food. Maggie and Cody were both warm and genuine, you can tell they truly care about your stay. Although it’s near a road, it’s not busy at all and you’d barely know it’s there, it’s so peaceful and quiet. I’m an extremely light sleeper and I slept incredibly well, which says a lot. We’d love to come back next time we’re on the island.

Lovely rustic setting in a private cozy cabin with all the amenities to make yourself comfy. Five minute easy walk to Grassy Point for the best sunset spot on the island! Five min drive to the co-op grocery store as well as easy access to nearby Helliwell Park and its 5km oceanside walk as well as Tribune Bay and Whale Watching beaches.

This cabin was beyond cozy—just the right size with a beautiful, calming aesthetic. The scenery is absolutely stunning, and while private, it never felt too isolated. The sauna was a perfect way to unwind after exploring. Comfortable beds, abundance of hot water, and having laundry on-site were great additions. The evening lighting outside created such a nice ambiance, and we appreciated the labels on light switches and clear instructions for the thermostat. Thoughtful touches from L&M for our Golden, Murphy, made him feel just as welcome as we did. The fully enclosed yard gave us peace of mind—especially being in the heart of nature. Not far from the most gorgeous nature walk, and not a far drive for key amenities. Big shout out to Laurel for the pet friendly patio recommendations! This wasn’t only a magical property… but experience in itself. We hope to be back in the future. Thank you so much for making our mini-moon memorable.

What an absolute gem of an airbnb. We had our privacy the entire stay. Cabin was spacious and was spotlessly clean upon arrival. Well stocked kitchen with a comfortable living space. The backyard was spacious enough for our big dog and there are many trails close by. The fire pit with the lawn chairs allowed us to sit back and relax with a nice fire. This was a great getaway. I highly recommend Keitha’s Airbnb!

Beautiful location. Lee was flexible when we needed to check in later than planned. She gave us a helpful walk-through of where to find things to do on the property, such as the firepit, yard, hot tub, etc., and how to get to the beach. Very responsive and a comfortable place.

This cabin exceeded our expectations. If you are looking for all the comforts in a tranquil location this home is perfect. It’s a beautiful combination of sea and rainforest. The home is equipped with high quality amenities. We saw whales swimming in the channel and birds are singing all day. The cabin is designed with windows to maximize your view. The sauna, outdoor shower and fire table was a relaxing way to finish the day and look out at the water. We like to cook and the kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. The hosts are friendly and helpful. Highly recommend this destination for some solitude and privacy. It’s evident the hosts put a lot of effort and thought to create special touches such as fresh greenery and herbs on display. We can’t wait to come back at the next opportunity.

Absolutely beautiful cabin! We had a lovely stay and would absolutely come back. Very peaceful property.

This was the perfect peaceful getaway spot. There was lots of natural lighting through all the windows but tucked away so you get plenty of privacy. The hot tub and BBQ are also perfectly placed so you get your own space. Loved all the personalities of all the farm animals as well! The Airbnb was exactly as listed and had everything needed. Would love to stay here again if in the area!
