The sunset view is beautiful ! I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at rye Quarrystone House and will return in some other times . " - "The accommodation was very comfortable, the staff we interacted with were great, and the breakfast was superb. Overall, double thumbs up. " - "Overall a great experience staying at the Quarrystone House. About a 20 minute drive to get into Ganges Town Center. The breakfasts served are high end with all the trimmings, so if you are expecting a plain bacon and egg, pancake combo that is not what is served. Staff are super friendly and courteous, and compliment the owner in her views making it a great place to stay. The room we had was on the ground floor, as we had our Wheaten Terrier "Tazo" with us. There is no housekeeping per say, though if you need something staff and owner are there to assist. The rooms could do with a few more amenities, just for placing things like toiletries etc. As you set up the room with your personal items, shopping etc. The toilet we had is old school, and very low as they are probably on septic would recommend installing a new water efficient toilet. Their are goats on the property, paying them a visit is relaxing. Great views of the Gulf Islands for each room. Meeting the other guests for breakfast a treat. Overall pleased with the experience and stay at the QuarryStone. That includes "Tazo""

The pool was warm and inviting, the hot tub was welcome after a day of hiking, and there were spacious grounds to admire and walk in. The bed was great as was the shower pressure. We also had a soaker tub in our room and a fireplace. The wake-up knock with latte at the time we selected before breakfast was a welcome surprise and we enjoyed relaxing in the Adirondack chairs on the dock in the pond. Excellent in all respects. "

Escape the city and unwind in this tastefully renovated cottage – perfect for a family or a romantic getaway!! Nestled in Fulford Harbour, you approach the sunny 2.5 acre property from a circular driveway. The cottage is beautifully situated to enjoy stunning ocean views of Russell Island and Mt Baker. Two sets of French doors lead out to a deck that will leave you breathless with the spectacular views.
A designer-inspired kitchen with a gourmet Heartland stove has everything you need to prepare summer meals and enjoy them on the flagstone patio. The kitchen is very well equipped even for a discerning chef. And for those on clean up duty, a 2 drawer dishwasher and large farmhouse sink make the job easy!
An expansive living room with a vaulted ceiling is furnished with pine Canadiana pieces for your comfort. Books, board games and videos are available to help you unwind and relax or share some laughs. The warmth of the wood burning fireplace will keep you cozy on those cooler days.
A peaceful sleep awaits you in one of 3 bedrooms: one with a queen bed overlooking the ocean, a second queen bed with views to the forest. A secret loft is also available for additional sleeping and has a queen size bed from which you can enjoy the stars and moon through the skylight. (It is accessed with an oak library-style ladder so not for everyone) Two newly renovated bathrooms also await you– one powder room and a second with a walk-in rain shower.
Spend your days soaking in the sights and sounds on this quiet part of the island. Meandering through the forest trails on the property. Whether enjoying your morning coffee on the deck or happy hour on the patio, you are sure to love the outdoor living that awaits you!
There are several ‘extras’ at this family friendly cottage. The lower level has a Foosball and Ping Pong table. The kids nook has several toys for various ages as well as a super cool Harry Potter sleeping hollow. For the youngest guests, we have a playpen, baby monitor and highchair (booster seat type) available for your enjoyment.
We truly enjoy sharing our piece of paradise. In the spirit of giving back, we donate a percentage of the revenues to our favourite charities: Mosaic, BC Women's Hospital Foundation and Upendo - a Tanzanian orphanage
NOTE: A secondary cabin is on the property and used by the owner only. It is fully self contained and has its own patio space, etc. If you have questions, please ask. .

The Flying Dreams Guest House offers peace and tranquility in a thoroughly magical setting.
The simple elegance of the exterior gives few hints of the interior’s grand vaulted ceilings, soaring Gothic windows, and spectacular view overlooking the Trincomali Channel. The well-appointed, eclectic interior offers 1800 square feet of luxurious living space including entertainment center, library, and dining area. Hardwood floors and Persian carpets add a classical touch. An additional 450 square feet of sleeping loft overlooks the dramatic space and offers sweeping views that extend all the way across the Gulf Islands.
The kitchen is compact yet spacious, equipped with a small fridge, and a two-burner stove built into an elegantly crafted island. Coffee maker, tea kettle and tea pot, toaster oven, and full sets of dishes, cutlery, glassware, kitchen utensils, and pots and pans, round off this delightful easy-to-use kitchen. Teas, locally roasted coffee, sugar, honey, and salt & pepper are provided.
A three-piece bathroom with shower offers bath products supplied by Salt Spring Soap Works. And outside, on the stoned back deck with an eagle’s-eye-view, a café table provides a lovely private setting for morning coffee or an at home meal.
And all just minutes from the beach.
A unique getaway for nature lovers, adventurers, romantics, and artistic spirits seeking inspiration.
- "Well looked after, clean and welcoming space - would definitely recommend. We liked the open, airy feeling, with a big window to look out at the forest and the ocean below. Have a coffee on the deck, or just sit inside in one of the comfy seating areas. The building itself has history and character - with high vaulted wood beams and plenty of light. The upstairs loft is decorated warmly and feels more cozy - a great place to curl up on a couch to read, the bed is comfy, and all furniture in great shape. Everything in the kitchen was very clean and ready to use. Galley-style kitchen with small fridge, hotplate and counter top oven are all in great shape. None of the windows look out on neighbouring properties so we had lots of privacy. Most of all, the property host was friendly, helpful, and once we were all setup we were left on our own. Unfortunately we had to cut our trip short by a day, but would certainly go back!"

The Gallery Cabin, a 100 year-old log cabin, lovingly refurbished with a new bathroom and kitchenette. Perfect for singles or couples the 240 square foot cabin has a brand new queen size bed, kitchen nook with sink, microwave, kettle, toaster, toaster oven and fridge, and a bathroom with shower and towel warming rack. Breakfast makings are provided: delicious fresh organic wood-fired sour dough bread provided by Francis Bread, home-made granola, jam, milk, juice, eggs, butter, bread, fruit and coffee and teas. A private deck soaks up the afternoon sun with a table, chairs and BBQ.
The Gallery Cabin is on the 2 1/2 acre property of Celia Duthie & Nicholas Hunt - with 1 other rental (Gallery B&B). Garden and forest views.
The cabin is a short walk from the nearby village Ganges, Churchill beach, and across the street from the prestigious Hastings House Hotel. There is a public bus service from the ferry terminals so guests can (if they wish) come to the island without a car and enjoy the island by foot, bus, kayak or rental scooter.
Salt Spring Island has an embarrassment of riches in art and music with many galleries, studios, and music venues. The Saturday Market, with farm produce, cheeses, and crafts, is a perennial favorite.
A good time to come to the island is often the off season, when the almost always temperate weather is fine for golfing, biking, walking, exploring the island or taking one of many excellent art and craft courses offered throughout the year.
- "We enjoyed everything this accommodation had to offer! Perfect location, peace and quiet, cozy cabin, natural setting, delicious breakfast and privacy. Easy check in and check out. Would love to return!" - "Charming property that is close to downtown but feels like you are very secluded. Loved the amazing breakfast fixings. They were delicious!" - "Great location a short walk to Ganges, 15-20 minutes, this is good for couples who are used to sharing cozy spaces. The cabin is quite comfortable but the kitchen is essentially one at a time. The hosts are next door and very helpful. We love it; this was our second stay and we plan to return."

For your peace of mind, we have improved our infection control strategy thorough disinfecting of the suite with natural alcohol based products. We use environmentally friendly cleaning products to avoid any sensitivities you might have.
Relax in a beautifully finished two-bedroom suite including laundry and a four piece bath with heated tile floors to give you a truly home away from home experience.
This 1000 square foot suite has been recently renovated with an emphasis on clean, simple lines while not sacrificing the character which is achieved through special touches like hundred-year-old reclaimed fir doors, prominent fir trim, and natural light solar tubes.
There is a BBQ on the patio, if you enjoy cooking outside.
Between the extra sound insulation and comfortable king and queen sized beds you can be assured that you wake up refreshed. A full queen sized sofa bed is also available for groups of more than four people.
The private entrance opens onto reclaimed brick patio area for a morning coffee, an 'al fresco' barbecue or evening nightcap.

- "Lots of room for our group of 5 people. Comfy mattresses and pillows. Friendly hosts. Close drive to town (4 minutes), though not walking distance (road to town has no shoulder)." - "It's hard to know where to start, I'll start by saying that I would recommend Mossy Hill to anyone that needs accommodations on Salt Spring Island! We felt we had the privacy we needed and the amenities were excellent. The beds and pillows(which are very important)were excellent, the view from the picture window in the living room was amazing. We used the BBQ and as we were there for a family wedding we had guests in from time to time and there was plenty of room to entertain. Although we started out concerned that there was no air conditioning we found that we didn't need it even though the temperature outside was 30 degrees. Overall we were super happy with everything to do with Mossy Hill!!"

Also a quiet little oasis when we wanted to chill /nap for a few hours before heading out to dinner. Amrita and Alan were very welcoming and even left us a card and bottle of wild cider because they knew it was our 1st wedding anniversary :) Will definitely be staying here again!" - "Amrita and Allan were lovely hosts!

We are located on Channel Ridge looking toward Vancouver Island at approximately 450 ft. elevation. This makes us eye level with the eagle's nest in the front yard. Our custom home on a 5 secluded acre estate is an elegant West Coast contemporary built in 2005 that offers absolute privacy, sensational ocean vistas, and majestic forests with rambling trails for hiking, or biking on several hundred adjacent wild acres.
- "Our family (4 adults and 2 young children) enjoyed our visit to Bamboo Grove. Eliot was a gracious and welcoming host, and the house and its surroundings are spectacular. We spent hours in the trails behind the house in the mornings, explored the Island in the afternoon, and returned to the house to watch the beautiful sunset in the evenings. We can’t wait to return!" - "Enjoyed it very much." - "We spent a week here with our family (2 adults, 8 y/o, 5 y/o) and we were so happy that we decided to book it. We were there for a wedding, so were driving to Ganges quite often to meet up with family, but it wasn't too bad, maybe 15 min each way. The four of us had more than enough room to spread out, we were not for want of anything. It's a stunning property, extremely peaceful, could easily spend another week there just resting :) Elliot was very kind and communicative and was happy to assist with any questions we had."

Light airy apartment located on a terraced, treed property near Ganges. Wake up to birdsong and sip your coffee or tea on the porch, then meander down to Ganges and the Saturday market along the Ganges Trail (20min), or drive your kayaks down to the beach in under 5min. This garden level suite stays cool during the hot summer months, providing a welcome oasis to replenish after island adventures. It's also cozy warm in the winter and is the ideal spot for a remote work getaway.
Out of respect for guests and neighbours, smoking or vaping anywhere on the property is strictly prohibited. The apartment is in a quiet residential area and your hosts live and work in the upstairs apartment with their newborn daughter, tri-pawed pup, and cat. Parties will not be tolerated. Well behaved pets considered for an additional cleaning fee, please message to discuss. Note that while your hosts are quiet, the house is wood construction so there is some minor sound transfer between floors as is typical for wood built homes. Quiet time is from 10pm to 9am and extra effort is made during these times to minimize noise, though with a newborn there will be some sounds they cannot control outside these hours. They have never had a noise complaint from guests, but recognize that some people are more sensitive to sound than others and want to ensure your comfort.

The kitchen had everything we needed and the suite was clean and cozy. Can’t wait to go back." - "We stayed in this apartment for 4 nights (two adults and two kids). We have stayed in many vacation rentals, and this was by far the cleanest. The apartment was compact, and the space was well-used; it was simple and tastefully decorated. Lots of seating options for relaxing inside and out it didn't feel cramped with our family of four. The kitchen is well equipped; we cooked nearly all our meals, beds were very comfortable all bed linen was zipped close, which I thought was genius :). Kept the duvet and pillows more sanitary. The outdoor patio area was lovely, equipped with a dining table and chairs and some additional lounging chairs. It looked out onto the wild garden. Cedar was an excellent host, very friendly, helpful, and professional. It rained one of our days, but we enjoyed playing a marathon Monopoly (provided) session with the door open, listening, and watching the rain fall under the nice protection of the semi-enclosed patio."

Come stay in our beautiful farmhouse in the lovely Fulford Valley, nestled between Mount Maxwell and Mount Bruce on 5 acres of farmland and forest. Family friendly and quiet, we have a fully equipped kitchen and a huge private backyard to listen to the birds. We're located steps from the lovely Salt Spring Island Brewery and have walking trails down to Burgoyne Bay park. Our property also has a free-ranging duck, several chickens and a large friendly puppy! Our place is perfect for children – just let us know if you would like us to set up a travel cot, highchair, change table or potty, and toys (we also have safety gates installed). We're surrounded by birds, flowers and lots of trees. It's the perfect peaceful retreat in both summer and winter.
You are welcome to use the yard, wander through the fields, or explore our forest. Please don't enter the chicken area without your hosts, but if you would like to say hi to them, come knock on our door! Our family lives in the front side of the house (separate access and everything) and we're pretty friendly! If you have children, you're welcome to use the sandbox and slide with parental supervision. We don't guarantee the backyard is 100% free of nettles but we do our absolute best!
We respect your privacy so we provide all our guests with fresh chicken eggs as well as other local breakfast ingredients for you to prepare. We also bake fresh sourdough for our guests when time (and our toddler!) permits. The water from the tap is safe to drink as it comes directly from the spring at the top of the mountain and then goes through both a particle filter and UV filter. It's the best water we've ever tasted!
Our family lives in the adjoining house, so we're available to help with anything you need, but do ask you stick to quiet times to respect our peace and quiet. We also have a large, very friendly puppy. You're welcome to interact with him if you would like, but you don't have to!
Please note that the bathroom is located on the second floor, up a set of stairs, and through the master bedroom, so the space is not suitable for those that cannot use stairs.
Our property is not impacted by the new short term rental rules in BC, due to our location on Salt Spring Island. However we do meet the requirements it sets, out of respect for it, as the space shares a roof with our primary residence (and we serve an a la carte continental breakfast as we are a bed and breakfast).
Pets: We generally do not accept pets due to the livestock on our property, however if you have a very well behaved animal, please reach out to us and ask – we assess on a case-by-case basis. Please note that we do charge a pet cleaning fee as we must do an extra deep clean to ensure the space is fur-free for the next guests.
- "This property is beautiful, the space is clean and comfortable, and the sourdough and fresh eggs were delicious! All of these things would be enough to give this charming home a 5 star rating, but Serene and Rodolfo themselves bring this home to the next level. I have never met such charming and welcoming hosts! Thank you Serene and Rodolfo, your kindness made our visit. P.S. we love Balu!" - "Like staying with family. Our 7 year-old spent most of her free time playing with the host’s very friendly dog and shared their son’s sandbox with him. Very quiet location. Great access to Burgoyne Bay trails."

Treetops is perched at the top of a hill & affords stunning views of ocean, trees, boats and wildlife.
Sip your morning coffee/tea on the private deck.
Welcome to the island I have loved for 38 years.
With a family and a job I cannot always be present on the island, which is why I chose to share my special space with other like minded people who will enjoy all that Treetops will have to offer.
The Eagle Suite is for the budget conscious. It’s warm, comfortable & clean with simple furnishings. Only minutes from town, the 600 squ ft suite has a living room, kitchen & bedroom. There’s tv & movies but the best entertainment is the view. In the evenings you can view star galaxies & early mornings, spectacular sunrises.
The space
This property is a perfect retreat if you’re looking for a quiet escape, away from the hustle & bustle of the city. Yet only minutes from the island’s many attractions.
There’s complimentary coffee & tea and all necessary staples.
Furnishings are simple. & functional. The bedroom has a queen size bed and there’s a fold up bed and/ or a pull out sofa bed for a guest. Please request this when booking
There’s also a tv, dvd and movies. . Lots of games and books too. In warmer months, the deck offers nightly starry skies and a breathtaking view.
If you are a restless sleeper ( hopefully not), head out to the deck to watch the spectacular sunrise.
Unfortunately , this is not a handicap accessible suite. The driveway is steep.
We like to keep guests comfortable and happy while keeping the price as affordable as possible. It’s simple not luxurious.
Eat your meals on the deck. Have an afternoon nap in the hammock. Get the best of it all in bright natural surroundings just a few minutes drive from Ganges. It’s not surprising that birds like nesting here too.
Guest access

Make sure you have a vehicle as walking in to town takes at least an hour and the trip is quite hilly." - "Beautiful views in the mornings and evenings lifted and rejuvenated the spirit. The accommodation had everything you need and extras. It is well set up and located for beach and town visits. I highly recommend this place."

Good supply of dishes, glassware and cutlery and it seems that you are welcome to bring premade meals in. Irena took care of the dishes promptly. Her garden is so beautiful with many well cared for flowers, you can tell she loves spending time in it.

A unique and spacious guest suite that combines the best of rustic outdoor living with essential indoor comforts.
Located in the desirable neighborhood of Vesuvius on our forested 3/4 acre property.
The space
Located on the lower level of our family home, the suite has a separate entrance to a private bedroom, a private cedar enclosed outdoor & unheated bathroom (with hot water and a clean and odour free compostable toilet), a private additional cabin/living area, an almost exclusively private large fully equipped kitchen with BBQ, a private outdoor dining area, and access to a private cedar sauna (we also use the sauna from time to time but grant full private use to our guests at any time they like).
Though physically located close together, the rooms are not attached and you need to walk outside to move between the different living spaces (the bathroom is just a few steps from the bedroom and has a covered walkway). As it gets very dark at night on the island, we have ensured that all spaces are well lit with nightlights and motion sensor lights. The terrain of our yard is uneven in some places, as such, our suite is NOT suitable for anyone with mobility issues.
We are incredibly respectful of our guest's privacy, but we want to ensure that all guests know and appreciate that our family lives upstairs and that guests will hear us moving around and conversing on the patio that is located above the suite. You may also see us working in the garden which is located near the suite, but not in front of it.
Guest access
Guests have completely private access to a spacious bedroom with a king sized bed, desk and sitting area, an extremely quaint and bright small cabin with a couch, desk and loft, a cedar enclosed outdoor bathroom with a shower, sink and toilet, and a beautiful cedar sauna!
Guests will also have private use of a large and fully equipped commercial kitchen, except on days when Dave needs to bake granola (typically twice per week and almost never on the weekends). On baking days, guests will be asked to grant Dave full access to the kitchen from approximately 9 am to 2 pm.
Guests are also welcome to use our laundry facilities which are located within our home.
Other things to note
All guests receive a free bag of Dave's Artisan Maple Pecan Granola, as well as complementary coffee, tea, cream and yogurt.
Guests visiting us in the winter months need to be aware that, on the rare chance that we have temperatures below -5 degrees celcius, there is a chance that the plumbing to the outdoor shower and sink may not work. If this occurs then you will still have access to the sink in the kitchen and we will give you access to a nice private shower with a private entrance in our main home (just upstairs). We also want you to know that, though winters on Salt Spring are generally mild, when storms occur we do sometimes experience power outages, road closures, and/or ferry cancellations. Should a power outage occur when you are staying with us, we will provide a generator for your electricity and heat and anything else you need. Though we will ensure you are well taken care of, we cannot offer refunds for your stay if any of the above conditions occur.

Other things to note
LIMITED KITCHEN FACILITIES: While Hillside Hideaway offers you lots of privacy and space with your own separate entrance, it is more a bed & breakfast than a self-catering vacation rental -- the "breakfast bar" (kitchenette) has no sink for washing dishes (we will do your dishes for you), and only a small bar fridge for storing any additional food items/drinks brought by guests. Please refer to the House Manual (available once you book) for more information about the breakfast ingredients provided. A list of restaurant recommendations on the island is also provided upon arrival.
QUIET HOURS are from 11pm-7 am. Please bear this in mind if you are thinking of staying at Hillside Hideaway with small children, or if you're night owls -- your hosts live (and sleep) directly upstairs, and we encourage you to respect the peace and serenity of this secluded location.
CHECK-IN is from 3pm-10pm. Requests to check in outside these times can sometimes be accommodated, but should be made well in advance so your hosts can plan accordingly.
Please note that the suite only has an OUTDOOR SHOWER (very private with abundant hot water from a "rainfall" shower head and views out onto the garden).
Guests contemplating arriving by bicycle or on foot should be aware that it is a VERY LONG AND STEEP climb (260 m elevation) up to Hillside Hideaway!
FERRY RESERVATIONS made well in advance are highly recommended if you're bringing your car from the mainland (Tsawwassen), especially in summer and on long weekends.
There is a guest parking spot right beside the carport, as well as room for an additional car if necessary.
