Summary: We enjoyed our stay here however there were a few odd things which may be a cultural/language difference. Someone called us the day of arrival after we had texted with our plans and told us to pay a cash pet fee which was not mentioned in the listing. This was a bit of a put off. The place is nice but minimalist for sure. Well stocked kitchen wise - large fridge which was nice. Small peekabo view and the walk to the beach has a steep part so you need to be able to navigate that. Beautiful little deck and quiet. There are odd rules (no tp in the toilet) that would have been good to know in advance. We had to empty our garbage (due to tp) halfway so it didn’t smell. Also thought it was a bit strange that we had to take our garbage with us. We don’t produce much and we pay a cleaning fee so it seems a bit odd? Totally understood bringing our own bedding to reduce washing, however on arrival there was a duvet and blanket. overall enjoyed the stay, was cozy and well stocked. Oh and the bed is quite firm - I didn’t mind but some may find it too hard.

Summary: We had a lovely time at Heron Rocks Lookout! The place is small, but cozy and well equipped. There is a large patio with a beautiful view and easy to use BBQ. The studio has a shared wall with the garage which made it feel a little less private but overall we really enjoyed our stay.

Summary: I loved walking to the Mount Geoffrey Escarpment Provincial Park trail. I was there during a heat wave and swimming just off the trail with my dog was amazing. Fun narrow windy drive to Co-op. A few wonderful and tasty stands along the way for veggies and baked goods. Lina was super nice and quick to connect. The deck is private and the view and ocean breeze was a nice treat given the heat. An added bonus was the cattle farm below. In the evenings we watched the farmer and his working dogs bring in the cows! I found the raised bed a little awkward to get into because the mattress kept shifting over but it was super comfortable. Slept soundly. Wifi was strong. Had everything I needed. Will be back again! Thanks, Lina : )

Summary: Quiet rural and scenic location. Overall conditions of small studio was reasonable. Spacious outside deck with good seating and table. The kitchen was fairly well equipped. The bed was average for comfort however was very high, somewhat of a challenge for a medium height woman. ( need to use a stool, if shorter) Indoor seating ( dining) was not comfortable,, unless for a short period. Internet and tv were good. Some drawbacks /rules took away some of the overall enjoyment. These were explained as normal for the location of Hornby Island. Bring your own sheets and towels. No toilet paper allowed in toilet Take away your own gargage. Use one appliance at time. The host had good communication. Happy to be allowed our small dog. Overall , good for a short visit , if you don’t mind the above noted rules. We stayed 2 nights. Unfortunately one day was rainy, so we were inside more than expected.

Summary: The studio is beautifully located surrounded by forest with a view of the water. It's a cozy, well-appointed suite with all we needed for a quiet retreat. Lots of bird song, breeze in the trees and almost no other human sounds. We were sorry not to get to meet Lina as she was away. However, she was totally available and welcoming by phone. We felt well cared for.
