Our place is overlooking the ocean and beach with stunning views. Walk out your door and down the private staircase and be standing on hundreds of feet of practically private beach with stunning sculptural rockery, oysters galore, and endless wildlife. Walk for miles along the beach and you are likely to be the only people there. You’ll love our place because of the location, epic views, serenity, and the cosiness. Our place is good for those looking for peace and untouched nature. The cottage itself is very spacious with high vaulted ceilings, skylights, soft wood floors, very comfortable furnishings, luxurious king sized bed, full kitchen, wood burning fireplace inside, propane firepit outside on your orivate oceanfront patio. Ages 12 + only please. Great for couples, solo adventurers, (NON SMOKERS ONLY PLEASE), and furry friends (well-behaved quiet pets). Explore beautiful Denman.
Please Note: (Suitable for pre-walking infants or children 12and up only: see below for details on this).

Fully equipped kitchen, and we provide your own bbq area. Washing machine and dryer, huge living space with vaulted high ceilings, with a dining area as well.

An assortment of classic boardgames and a small but well curated book library is also provided. We also supply stand up paddle boards and kayaks for guests to enjoy in our harbour on calm safe ocean days. The SUP's are for summer months only, while kayaks can be used all year round on calm ocean days. Picture yourselves picnicking on a bench on the driftwood staircase to the beach while you watch the waves roll in and the eagles fly overhead. The sun rises directly out of the ocean, a view you can see right from your bedroom or for an even more special experience, right from the beach. We also provide a huge outdoor oceanfront deck for dining and lounging with an outdoor propane fire pit. Inside is a wood burning fireplace for getting cozy. Also, our cottage is a 5 min drive to the Hornby Island Ferry so you can explore Hornby Island as well for day trips. This property is "real nature". Unstable, dangerous, and slippery conditions may exist within and outside the property, and is only suitable for:
1) Adults
2) Infants who are not yet walking, and will be held/ carried in a baby carrier or baby bjorn. This property is too rugged and wild for children to walk around on safely, we suggest only non-walking infants or well-behaved children 12 and older.
You will find total privacy and peace here. Separate entrance, with a gate around the side that takes you to the garden and onto the beach access staircase. You are welcome to enjoy strolling and hanging out on the entire east side of the property (roughly 2 acres to yourself) as we spend majority of our time on the west side of the property. There is another suite attached to our home as well as this one, but with strategic landscaping and soundproofing you will find peacefulness and privacy here. You can also walk down our road only 15 minutes all the way to the west side of the island point, where you can view the sunset, which is a beautiful nature walk, passing only the odd farmhouse and cabin, very quiet and peaceful. Having a vehicle is a huge plus as you can then easily explore that rest of the island with all the beautiful nature trails and parks it has to offer. Having bicycles would also be a nice way to get around. This part of the island is extremely peaceful and unpopulated, yet only a 7 minute drive from the ferry and shops/restaurants. You will truly be able to connect with nature during a stay at our cottage. Your view will be unique in that you see historic Chrome Island from this side, as well as a view of the provincial park, and straight down Baynes sound with absolutely no obstacles. The sun rises directly out of the ocean in winter months, a view you can see right from your bedroom or for an even more special experience, right from the beach. Eagles' nests are right above you, watch them hunt for fish and fly overhead all day long. In fall, a salmon stream is just down the beach for you to watch them spawn, seals and sea lions are present year round, as well as porpoises, and if your are lucky, you may even sea some whales swim by. Deer walk past your cottage regularly, and birds of all kinds are all around. Potters, fibre artists, jewelry artisans and glass artists dot the island and welcome your visits. We are also on a 3 minute drive form the organic winery. Also, our cottage is a 5 min drive or 15 min bike ride to the Hornby Island Ferry so you can explore Hornby Island as well for day trips. Keep us in mind for special event times on Denman such as the famous Writer's Festival in July, or the incredible Christmas Craft Fair in December. There is also a famous home and garden tour and an art studio tour every year.king wized bed, full kitchen, wood burning fireplace inside, propane firepit on your outdoor patio.
- "This cottage is a very lovely and peaceful spot to spend your time when you are not out exploring all that Denman Island offers. The views are outstanding and we could have spent hours just relaxing. The couple who owns it are very nice people and they were great to communicate with if you needed anything. We will return!" - "We had a very relaxing two-day stay at Robin’s lovely Denman Island home. We wish we could have stayed longer as this is one of the nicest places we have visited. The furniture and decor is cozy and new. The bed is super comfy with crisp sheets. The entire place is very clean and has everything you need. The ocean views and soaring eagles are unmatched. We appreciated the special touches—a Denman Island Chocolate, biodegradable shampoo and soap. We will return!"

KEMA Cabin is a small rustic family oriented cabin, fronted by its own private yard. The cabin has access to a virtually private beach ideal for the exploration of tidal pools or just to enjoy the tranquility of the westerly vistas (beach access destroyed by land slide - new access being worked on). A large deck at the cabin front with table and umbrella serves as the 'hang-out' after the days activities are over. The cabin is fully equipped with all generally required amenities. Come and relax!
- "Enjoyed the private beach" - "My husband and I had a fabulous time. The cottage is so cute, comfy and well equipped. Loved barbecuing and overlooking the ocean from the patio....wasn't expecting such a lovely view from the property. Owner is super nice and welcoming. We definitely will come back to Hornby and we have found our little getaway cottage when there!" - "Comfortable….." - "I had a great trip to Hornby island this year and it all centred around my home base “Kema Cabin”. About a kilometre up from Shingle Spit Ferry and it’s a perfect cabin for one or two people that has everything you need including a comfy bed, a small kitchen with all the amenities and a hot shower with good pressure. The property does have WIFI but I found when I was using it I kept having to sign in if I moved around the cabin or deck but a really small complaint in the grand scheme of things. The private beach is across the street and down some custom built stairs and is really beautiful and very private and if you don’t feel like setting out for Tribune or Whaling station this a nice alternative that’s just a few minutes walk away. The deck offers a small view of the ocean that is a great spot for your morning coffee. I would recommend Kema Cabin for a couple or even if you’re on a solo trip. This is a peaceful home base where you’ll be comfortable before and after all your Hornby adventures!"

**** Guest are required to bring their own (queen size) bedding and towels *** and to takeaway the trash&recycling off property****Hornby Island has a fragile eco system and water supply - hanse these are common practices on Hornby
Forget your worries in this serene space. Magnificent views and a quiet neighbourhood will give you the downtime you are looking for. A vehicle is required to get around Hornby Island, however we have a general store, restaurant and scenic marina within a 10 minute walk from the studio.
We are ferry dependent so keep in mind the ferry schedule (both Buckley and Hornby Ferries).
The stand-alone studio is attached to the garage building and is 200 ft away from the main house. It has a raised queen size bed so you can take in the ocean view while relaxing in bed. A kitchenette with sink, fridge, microwave, induction cooktop, toaster, French coffee press and dishes is available for you to cook simple meals. The bathroom has a stand up shower.
The studio sleeps only 2 people, however in the summer we can accommodate 1 extra persons (in your own tent and sleeping bags) pitched on the deck or in the forest. There is an extra charge per camper per night - contact host for details.
The studio is equipped with a smart TV (no channels but Netflix, Prime etc are available). Board games and Wi-Fi also included.
The large kitchen window overlooks the spacious deck which has two chaise loungers, table and chairs and barbecue. Here you can enjoy the spectacular ocean and old growth forest views.
- "We had such a comfortable stay. Lina is an incredible host and the small apartment has everything you need to enjoy a week on Hornby. The large deck and bbq has views over local farmland, and south to the strait. A nice close walk down to Ford's Cove and a lovely trail to the ferries. Great value ..

Get away to Hornby Island, arguably one of the world’s most beautiful islands. Our home is an architect designed, full featured house with magnificent westerly views and surrounded by lush gardens.
Note to past guests: The following statement currently does not apply as a small landslide destroyed our current beach access and a stable new route is still under investigation - The house has access to our more or less private beach ideal for the exploration of tidal pools or just to enjoy the tranquility of the westerly vistas. Please note that we are a high bank property and that a number of flights of stairs must be taken to the waterfront with our deck.
Hornby Island is known for its beautiful beaches, its great hiking and mountain biking trails and the relaxed, artistic culture that is prevalent everywhere.
Most visitors enjoy Hornby during the summer months and it is perhaps a well kept secret that the best time to be on Hornby is anytime during the year. Even in the darker winter months the island offers wonderful relaxation potential and a plethora of things to do.
We welcome you during any season and hope that you will also come to love Hornby Island.

Highly recommended." - "We enjoyed staying at the vacation rental at the end of the road overlooking the ocean." - "Beautiful place." - "This place is awesome! The apartment is beautifully designed and was super clean. We loved the large shower, the sauna and the ocean view. We could hear the sea lions from the living room and were followed by so many while kayaking. There a two bald eagles living in a tree next to the property, if you're lucky you can see them through the skylight right when you wake up. The place is very quiet, an ideal getaway for a couple or a single person when you're tired of the city. Robin was super responsive and kind and the place came with lots of helpful instructions on where to find what and how everything works. Bonus point: Their dog is super cute and treated us to many cuddles. Will definitely recommend to friends and family!"

Beautiful Bowser, B.C
Our luxurious one-bedroom suite is beautifully detailed with high-end finishes (i.e. full kitchen with stainless appliances, a large kitchen island with bar stools, a wrap around bench seat in the kitchen nook and a tea/hot chocolate/coffee centre for that perfect cup of java in the morning). The crisp white ship lap walls provide a coastal vibe that goes way beyond the usual seashells and sailboats. A seaside escape you are shore to luv, just steps to the beach!

The neighborhood was very quiet and tranquil in a short walking distance to the beach with stunning views. Cannot praise this stay more highly. Thank you Micky" - "These owners have put much effort into their VRBO property ! The inside is spotless! Beautiful, clean and decorated with peace and tranquility in mind ! We were welcomed with a bottle of wine, glasses and a hand written note. With lots of windows, it’s always bright and cheery ! Cozy couch with Netflix options beside a pellet stove (we didn’t use the stove, but this is a great option as sometimes, with the ocean breeze, evenings can be a little chilly!). The outside is beautifully landscaped ! Chairs and places to sit outside too. The kitchen was fully equipped with a travellers needs in mind !

Oh, the owners were easy to communicate with and replied promptly if we had questions !"

Is there free parking?
Yes! Open the gate and park in front of the garage. The garage itself is used as an artist studio and is closed.
- "This was our second time staying at this location. The first time was during a particularly rainy spring, so coming in the summer was a different experience. This time we could really make use if the beautiful deck and enjoy the view (the view is still great from inside when it was rainy). We could also enjoy swimming at the beach instead of just beach combing! The location is quiet and located far enough from larger centers to really slow down and relax, while still having the attractions of Coombs/Parksville close enough to enjoy. The hosts are communicative and thoughtful, they even had a fantastic dropped off because they thought we might be too warm (we didn't end up needing it, but it was thoughtful nonetheless). We had a wonderful family get away, and with two young kids we appreciate having no downstairs neighbours (especially when the 7 year old hurt her ankle the day before we arrived!)."

- "The property is exactly as listed. This is a huge, beautiful property located on a quiet street with convenient parking. It is very private and the hosts are very mindful and considerate. At night it is very dark and peaceful and it is ideal to watch the stars from the rooftop which is furnished with lovely and comfortable seating. The property has everything you can think of, and more! From the outside, it is just so inviting and welcoming. When you enter the cabin, you first see the dining room, lounge area with fireplace and stunning fully equipped kitchen (it has everything and more than you need and lots of cabinets for your groceries etc.). Very thoughtful that there is coffee, tea, spices and general items in one of the cupboards in the kitchen. There is a bedroom and full bathroom on the first floor, as well as washer and dryer, cleverly tucked away to look like another cupboard. It is all very spacious. There is also a seating area just off the kitchen by the stairs. This opens up to the huge deck overlooking the back garden. Upstairs you have a work area with a desk and another tv room, the huge master bedroom with amazing windows and an awesome bathroom - the shower is spacious and has a rain shower head with handheld. Again everything you could imagine you'd need (shampoo, conditioner, body wash) - hair dryer, cotton wool, ear buds etc. all neatly stored. The main bedroom leads out to the rooftop. I can honestly say that we loved every bit of the log cabin - beautiful flooring, lots of light (including natural), light switches all marked clearly, very stylish and comfortable décor, extremely well equipped and very clean! We feel very fortunate that we could be the first visitors to this stunning cabin. We will definitely stay there again when we visit Vancouver Island. Thanks so much for the very enjoyable stay."

We'll definitely be back!" - "Keyo is an amazing host and the pictures are lovely but this place has so much more magic, peace and light than the pictures could ever display. The bed was so comfortable. This place is about connecting to nature or whatever your soul needs to nourish you and enhance your life experience. So many walks and beaches available or you can just sit and enjoy. This place is awesome!"

Welcome to DRIFT Studio
Your peaceful retreat by the stunning Salish Sea!

Whether you’re seeking a romantic retreat, a serene office away from home, an artist’s or writer’s haven, or a birdwatcher’s paradise, DRIFT Studio is the perfect destination.
Unmatched Views and Wildlife Encounters
Let the soothing sounds of the waves and the breathtaking views of Denman Island, the Salish Sea, and the historic Chrome Island Lighthouse set the tone for your stay.

A Perfect Location for Tranquility and Adventure

Art from the host's collection of professional Canadian artists, along with carpets and fabrics from Persia, add warmth and colour.
A glass patio door opens onto the back garden deck where you’ll discover your own private Thermal Spa Therapy experience. You enter Ocean Spray through the Zen Garden and front deck. The east-facing garden makes watching sunrise and moonrise over neighbouring Hornby Island an absolute delight. And who knows – you might just see orcas, grey whales, humpbacks, porpoises or dolphins!
Ocean Spray includes a dishwasher, fridge/freezer and sink, with an electric BBQ and fire pit outdoors. It has its own dedicated toaster oven and hot plate in the common area kitchen, accessed from the unit’s back door. There is a futon sofa-bed for 2 people who want to share a room, but not the bed!
CLIMATE: The Islands on the West Coast of British Columbia have mild weather in all four seasons. We do sometimes get snow, but rain and snow are both your friends at a Nordic Spa! Whether in your private hot tub in your garden or in the oceanfront sauna, it's all part of the experience. Located in an idyllic location on Denman Island, from which you can easily explore the Island or travel to the Comox Valley and Hornby Island or further afield.

• Kayaking, paddle-boarding, canoeing, scuba diving and swimming (in the crystal-clear ocean and 2 lakes on Denman Island); hiking and biking trails abound both on Denman and nearby Hornby Island
• The spring and fall wildlife migrations for wildlife photographers, the "herring run" in March, and all year round for whale watchers and nature enthusiasts.

- "This is a lovely place for an extended stay...all you need for a luxury vacation." - "We had an amazing time. The house is even prettier than the pictures online. The view is breathtaking. It was close to activities we wanted to do such as hiking and wildlife tours. Great grocery store in town. Great restaurants along the shore in both directions. Would recommend a stay here." - "I was looking for a quiet weekend away on the beach, to relax and enjoy a much needed break from work. This lovely cottage is exactly as shown in the pictures. Beautifully decorated, a fully equipped kitxhen with top of the line appliances, a very comfortable bed and a view that cannot be beat. Additionally the sauna while has not only appreciated after a long day of exploring but also provides an equality stunning view. I was extremely fortunate that not only did I have 4 days of sunshine, I also was there for the herring spawning. I was privileged to watch rafts of sea lions, convication of eagles, solitary herons and 1000s of herring gulls. The walks on the beach where not only amazing for the view but the abundance of wildlife. Highly recommended for adults."

- "We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Grassy Point Getaway. The house is within walking distance to Grassy Point for watching beautiful sunsets and central to everything else on Hornby. We enjoyed the beautiful artwork and artefacts throughout this lovely family home. Hope to be back!" - "Great accomodations. Our group of six had a great time on the property. " - "This was a great place to stay for having multiple bedrooms and enough space for our family plus grandparents. It was also less expensive than a number of other listings I looked at. The location is good, it was quiet at night (minus a few roosters early in the morning), and the kitchen was well stocked. However, the house is stuffed full of art, knickknacks, and furniture and is not suitable for children under 5."
