Holiday rentals with lake access in Gulf Islands

Truly one of the best Airbnbs we've stay in. The house is better than we could have imagined and lake is even closer than what it looks like in the pictures. My five year old son says his favorite thing(s) about the house is: jumping into the lake, the hot tub, the water play, jumping in the lake, the big couch, the showers, and jumping into the lake... Hoping to come back again!

We loved this amazing view home in Nanaimo. It is comfortable and extremely clean. Brian is a wonderful host, very welcoming and helpful. He has gone the extra mile to make your stay memorable by having so many extras available for your enjoyment like kayaks, crab traps and even extra shoes! The home has an incredible view and water access that offers a beautiful place to relax each day. We saw orcas, humpbacks, and otters from the deck! My 4 yr old grandson loved watching the ferries and float planes. Nanaimo was so fun. We are planning on coming back and definitely want to stay at this home again.

Highly recommend. Love the decorating. Well stocked kitchen. Super comfy bed. Open concept. Lovely view. Great hot tub. We also really appreciated an early check in. Thank you Josh and Heather.

We’ve stayed at Sunny’s house twice and both times have been great! Beautiful views, and great neighborhood. Always very clean and comfortable.

Great place to be near Mt. Baker and Bellingham. We had a cozy time enjoying the hot tub and the comfy living room. Great kitchen with above average cooking utensils for an airbnb.

Amazing place! Location was great and it has an exceptional ocean view. Super clean and the hosts are very nice and accommodating. We will definitely stay here again

Great stop along our path around the Olympic Peninsula! Water is right there with beautiful view-definitely feels like going back in time to stay the weekend with my granny even down to the Disney videos! It was a great visit!

This was such a lovely place to stay! The house was full of light and we loved the deck. The location is perfect- we especially liked being so close to Moran State Park and a short drive to town. Jan was a great host!

I had a wonderful stay here. Ginny and Gary were so warm and welcoming, they checked in to see if I needed anything and made sure I felt completely at home. After long days of climbing, it was the perfect place to come back to just as described, if not even better! The surroundings are stunning, and the place has absolutely everything you could want. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a cozy, comfortable, and well-equipped home base. I will definitely be back!

This place is an absolute gym. we absolutely loved our stay here and didn't want to leave. The cozy wood pellet stove and sauna really set this place apart. I already want to return and spend a full week here. Great price and no complaints. I feel truly blessed to have had the opportunity to stay here.

A great place to stay. Perfect accommodations for our needs and close walking distance to everything. Very clean and a stunning view. Jessica was quick to answer any questions we had. We would love to stay here again next time we are in the area.

Deanna is a great host very accommodating and responsive. This is our second time staying at her place. Location is perfect to watch our son racing who was participating in Shawnigan regatta. Looking forward to stay here again next year!

Great place to stay, beautiful location, perfect for walking your fur baby, safe neighbour hood, relaxing balcony with a great view, simply wonderful experience!

Tracy and John are fantastic hosts. They have everything you can think of and more within the unit. There were also some other little perks but don't want to ruin the surprise should you choose to stay here which you should. The view / location can't be beat. The lake is a few mins walk away; super clean (rocky so you may want water shoes) and there is a dock to jump off of. Separately, my luggage arrived late and they provided me with extra toiletries which was so thoughtful. They also regularly checked in on the situation which I really appreciated. I hope to be back!

This is a wonderful place to stay. Adrianna is an outstanding host. I would come back any time again. Five well deserved stars all around. Thank you!

it's a lovely stay. very spacious the bed is very large. lots of pots and pans to cook from, a grill. a pool for the summer and hot tub when your there in the winter time still but want to enjoy the water. the club house is also very close to room. Great stay. would recommend :)

Beautiful, cozy, and peaceful cabin. We loved our stay and hope to be back!

We had a wonderful, relaxing stay. The location is incredible, right on the beach and in easy walking distance (~5min) to the Port Townsend ferry. Very close driving access to other towns on Whidbey as well but the cottage itself feels "away from it all."

Lovely stay at Maple Ridge Cottages, cute little cozy space to hangout by the lake. This would be the perfect place in the summer while you can jump into the lake and use the provided water equipment (canoe, paddle-boards) enjoyed the wood burning fireplace at night and cooked our own meals on the BBQ. Only a short driving distance to town.

We had an incredible stay at this beautiful lake-side cottage. The place is right on the lake with amazing views. The interior is super cozy, with comfy couches and beds. It's one of those places where you immediately feel at home. Our hosts were incredibly responsive, kind, and helpful. We would love to come again!

Amazing place, already planning our trip back! Comfy and cozy. We celebrated our daughter’s 3rd birthday there. Beautiful sunny dock and a perfect shady deck outside the house. 🏡 thanks for having us!! ✨🩷

The cabin was perfect for our stay. The interior is laid out and decorated thoughtfully. The windows wrapping the cabin were our favorite part. It was cozy, comfortable and had stunning views. There is tons of seating outside as well. 5/5 all the way around, highly recommend!

Wonderful Airbnb, can highly recommend it!

What a gem of a place. We were so excited to stay here. The accommodation is clean, well equipped and comfortable. The surroundings are stunning. We were so lucky with the weather which was perfect for spending time on and around the lake. Martin was the perfect host. Thank you very much - we can't wait to find an excuse to visit again for much longer!
