Description of the Savary Island vacation cottage rental

Savary Island is located between Campbell River[ famous for salmon fishing] and Powell River[ famous for scuba diving] just south of Desolation Sound[ famous for boating]. This is paradise, where people come to relax and enjoy nature at it's finest moment.Warm water invites you to come in and enjoy its pristine aqua marine color with sandy bottom. Development has been kept to a minimun, basically untouched, other than the homes of a few full-time islanders and the seasonal cottages. A migratory stop for birds, and home to Bald Eagles & Island Deer, with no known predators, allows full relaxation. Weekly rentals available. High season $1250. CDN per week. Shoulder season $950.CDN per week. These rates include bottled drinking water and cleaning fee.No winter rates available. The cottage is an open post and beam design with five patio doors facing the ocean. A large bar supported by Cedar poles is the focal point, an air-tight fireplace offers a warm atmosphere. A huge sundeck which captures the sun most of the day, offers stunning views, including Sunset. An outdoor shower is located on the sundeck for your convenience. There is a large three piece bathroom, with walk-in shower. Look under "my Listings" on my site for more pictures,at davidlinton

The surrounding area offers many islands. You can see a dozen islands from our sundeck. Ideal area for kayaking, diving, fishing, boating and swimming. Perfect island for long walks on the beach, as you can literally walk around the entire island. It takes all day to fully to explore. The closest town on the mainland is Lund B.C. where you catch the water taxi to Savary Island. It takes about ten minutes. Very friendly locals. We provide you with all the contact numbers you will need for a smooth trip, including car valet service, water taxi, land taxi, ferry schedules, maps,list of what to bring, etc.

A great little space in the middle of an island of quiet. The cabin is centrally located, and we meandered the whole island on bikes. Make sure you have a bike for each person and you will not be disappointed. The cabin has everything you would need, and reading at night by oil lamp was a nice touch. Beds were comfortable, beaches were warm, and every side of the island offers a different set of activities.

we stayed for a week and loved the cabin. it's very rustic, but well-done and comfortable. the instructions provided by the owner for parking and getting there were very helpful. the cabin is above a beach (semi-treacherous trail down...but others close-by are easier) that has tons of wildlife. we caught crabs and went kayaking - a great overall experience.
