Nautical Acres - Enjoy a Private Cottage On Acreage Steps (250m) From The Beach

Located on 2 acres of well maintained property steps from the beach. We are a short 3 minute walk to the stunning Qualicum Beach shore. From the outdoor patio enjoy watching eagles, deer and bunnies. Expect daily wildlife visits as we back onto the protected Qualicum Estuary. On the patio, the strung lights, table, chairs and firebowl create a relaxing and restful space before or after a beach day, shopping, sampling local cuisine or adventuring. Accommodations come with a comfortable large king bed, an extra pull-out bed in living room, kitchen with induction cooktop, apartment size fridge and freezer. Your beach home away from home awaits. Come stay, relax and enjoy.

Communication was second to none from first making our reservation to the end of our stay. Accommodations were clean, well equipped and located within a five minute walk to the ocean. Our hostess was helpful in every-which way. Would definitely recommend to anyone. Hope to stay there again if ever back in the area.

Close to beach, very clean, everything included like beach chairs. Could use a new fan as it was noisy when sleeping on the sofa.

I know my daughter and granddaughter had a lovely vacation here. They liked how close the beach was from the cottage. My daughter said the hosts were very welcoming too. Thank you for making their stay so enjoyable!

The property was clean, stocked with essentials and more, and so comfortable! Close access to beaches, and easy to walk to the main strip along the beach too! The host, Robynn, was so friendly and kind! She made us feel right at home. We had an amazing girls weekend, and would highly recommended staying here!

Very enjoyable stay, with eagles and deer close by for viewing. Robynn (owner) was extremely helpful and friendly. Could not have been nicer even though the weather did not cooperate.

Absolutely loved our stay here. The cabin is very well stocked, with everything from salt/pepper to coffee and even some games for the kids. The king sized bed is a treat as well. Very close walk to the shore, and a delightful beach with plenty of wildlife close by. Close to Qualicum Beach and Parksville is a short drive away. The property owner was very nice and helpful as well.

This VRBO offers all the comforts and amenities for an extended stay. The cottage is tucked away on the property and the deck is a perfect spot for stargazing away from city lights at night. An owl could be heard in the trees on the edge of the property. We were not in town for beach time, but there is nearby access, corner store available at the closest resort as well as Deez restaurant which we recommend.

The check in instructions were clear, the place has everything we need as bd the bed very comfortable. It’s close to the beach and just a few minutes drive to town and nearby restaurants. We enjoyed seeing the bunnies roaming around our place. The only minor issue is that the water from the shower is quite weak and without a handheld, it was a bit difficult to use and wash off the soap.

We had a wonderful weekend at Nautical Acres. The cottage is very well set out and comfortable, with thoughtful touches throughout. The nearby beach is one I want to come back to again and again.... And the kids loved the bunnies and wildlife all around. Thanks Robyn! Hope to see you again.

Super adorable cabin situated in a lovely piece of property with the beach just a quick jaunt down the road. All kinds of great hikes, beaches and great food within a 30 minute drive in all directions. The cabin itself was perfect. Had all we needed to make excellent meals. The king sized bed was a wonderful plus for my 6'3 husband. A couple of small children could easily sleep on the pull out bed but I would not recommend for another adult. Definitely the perfect couple spot.

Robynn's place is exactly as described and pictured, exceeding both of those things. It is very clean and of good quality. The deck and acreage are very nice and private. Deer and rabbits frequent the place. It is a short two minute walk to the beach and very nice sunsets. Communication with the host is exceptional, prompt, and accurate. We would not hesitate to visit again.

What a great location! So close to the beach!! The cottage was inviting, clean and had everything we needed. The king size bed was incredibly comfortable. The heated floor in the bathroom was an added bonus. Many activities to do around the area such as hiking at Englishman River Falls. Loved the easy contactless arrival. The hosts were very welcoming and made sure our weekend was everything we hoped for.

Beautiful location, nice unit. The shower is very tiny and hard to use - not recommended for a long stay. There is an open electrical panel covered by a picture next to the shower above the toilet which doesn't seem safe. Would have preferred a regular toaster to the old toaster oven. Good information provided by the host.

The two things most important to me in renting with VRBO is that the property is "as advertised" and the host is available and responsive. In that regard, this spot is fantastic! The place actually looked better in real life and Robynn was super! An added bonus is that the place is spotless and totally up to date. Also, bring a book. If the weather cooperates there's a nice little patio to do some reading!

This was the perfect little place for our young family. Great space for the kids to play, and a great location being so close to so much. When we showed up there were two deer in the yard! They had everything we needed and then some. The kids loved that there were games and balls to play with and of course the smart tv. The bed was so comfortable and we enjoyed the evenings beside the firebowl on the deck. Thanks to the hosts for making this stop on our Vancouver Island trip a memorable, relaxing one.

My husband, myself and brother shared this cabin on nautical Acres. It has an enclosed bedroom with a comfortable King sized bed. My brother slept on a comfortable pull out queen sized mattress built into the couch. There’s a small fully equipped kitchen with a coffee machine. It’s very quiet, private property with a nice outside patio with a bbq. I never heard any outside noises and found it to be a peaceful location. It’s approx 1/2 block easy walk to Qualicum Beach. The property is approx 5-8 min from downtown Qualicum. We really enjoyed staying here , and would definitely return.
