Sturdies Bay Cabin | Serendipity by the sea

1 Bedroom Cabin in Sturdies Bay, Galiano Island

Serendipity is located on beautiful Galiano Island...It is situated on Whaler Bay, and is nestled amongst the forest and wildlife...It is a well kept 50's pan-abode log cabin, on the water with a beautiful view...Deer, racoons, otters and eagles regularily frolick through-out the property.
Quiet, serene, and comfortable, this little beauty sleeps two in the main cabin, but also has a guest cabin which sleeps two as well.....( this is an additional 50 pr. night, but can be negotiated for long term rentals).
It is walking distance from the main ferry terminal as well as the local shops and the Madrona which is a world class spa.
Because the water is collected from rain water and has been treated, there is bottled water provided for drinking. The tap water is used for dishes and showers.
Please limit your showers to a min. in the summer as Galiano is one of the driest gulf islands and water must be brought in by truck to the its not a problem in the winter, because of the rain.
There is no garbage pickup on the island so please take your garbage back with you. There is a compost to use for food scraps to help condense the waste.
Serendipity is a wonderful quaint and peaceful cabin that I know, you will enjoy and feel relaxed by the time you check out.
There are also kayaks and paddle boards available for rent at the bottom of the property. Contact information will be left at the cabin..
Thankyou so much for considering Serendipity

Summary: This quaint cabin is true to its name, Serenity by the Sea. We loved everything about it! The cabin is cozy and well equipped, the bed is so comfy - we slept so well and enjoyed the sweet smell of the forest and chirping of the birds. The outdoor space is stunning, with ample decks and a sweet little waterfront view. We would come back in a heartbeat! Amazing little gem on Galiano.

Summary: The cabin is very close to the ferry and easy to find. It was just as described. The bed was very comfortable and there were plenty of amenities. We loved hanging out on the deck. It was very relaxing with the water right below. Deb was super responsive when something went wrong (our fault).

Summary: It's a beautiful little cabin in a gorgeous part of the world. The Ferry terminal, along with the amenities near the terminal (great coffee shop, bookstore, grocery/garage, and pizza place), are a very reasonable walk away.
