Amazing Beach Front - Oceanview townhome style condo at Tanglewood resort in Parksville, British Columbia, located immediately beside the beach access to Rathtrevor Beach.

This unit provides commanding ocean views and is adjacent to the Rathtrevor Provincial Park. Not only do you have the ocean views, but this unit is quiet and peaceful year round. Sit and watch the bald eagles soar or the deer pecking for food in the park. Steps away from one of the most scenic walking/running/biking trails on Vancouver Island that winds its way through Rathtrevor Park while contouring to the ocean.
Come, unwind and relax at one of the finest locations on Vancouver Island. Enjoy the tranquility of the surroundings and the amenities of home. 5 min drive to grocery stores and further amenities in Parksville. Enjoy a meal at the Black Goose Inn just a 10 min walk away or take a trip into town to micro-brew Mount Arrowsmith for a beverage and some food. Want goats on the roof? Coombs Market is an easy 15 drive away. Hike in the woods with waterfalls more your speed? Got that too; visit Englishman River Falls for a gentle 45 min hike with spectacular views and scenery. Cathedral Grove Forest is a 30 min drive and showcases some of North America’s biggest and best old-growth forest. Enjoy a walk through these massive trees.
A private beach fire-pit sets the evening mood. Watch the tide roll in and the sun set majestically over the ocean and distant snow capped mountains as you relax in the sounds of nature.
Come and enjoy all that #17 Tanglewood Place in Parksville has to offer. Every stay doesn’t seem long enough!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. The kitchen was the best equipped we've ever encountered through VRBO. The views were amazing from both inside and on both decks. The proximity to beach, walking trails was perfect. We highly recommend this property.
Met all expectations - quiet and peaceful. Comfortable. Lovely view. Short walk to beach Clean - well equipped, well maintained. Short drive to stores and city centreAll good
Excellent. It could not have been better. To get away from the busyness of life, this was perfect. Location was a 10/10, as was pretty well everything else. Thank you.
Nice place to hangout during massive downpours from an atmospheric river …. Nice and cozy and lots to do in the area on wet days. Would be good to have more details about the coffeemaker and recycling.
We loved our time in Parksville. The views from this property were perfect. We loved walking along Rathtrevor beach and exploring during low tide. Beautiful place to spend our spring break!
Clean, well appointed, on the best beach in Parksville!

Not worth the money
Carport parking spot requires an eight point turn to get into. Very tight area and all sloped. Steep hill that visitor parking is at too of.Had to wash towels empty garbage and recycle and take up to top of hill upon leaving. No gas in the BBQ. Staircase up to unit...not on ground level. Also rule was unable to leave property before 0700 so as not to disturb . Rule was to park up top of you had an early morning departure. Not for anyone who has any sore of mobility issue or is elderly!Furniture tired and worn. Poor quality mattresses on beds.View was lovely. Proximity to beach and Rathtrevor provincial park was awesome. Open living space area was nice and gasgaforeplacenwoorked.
This was our second stay at this condo. It’s clean, comfortable and very quiet. It’s also in a perfect location if you like walking. And if it’s raining, you can just stay home and enjoy the view!
We loved our stay here! The unit was wonderful, spacious, and well stocked. Shout out to the cleaning team - it was immaculate!!! The location and view were ideal. The beach was perfect for little ones (calm). The highlight for us was walking so far out during low tide and finding tons of starfish! We also enjoyed the walking path by the shoreline as well. It was hot when we were there, and there's no air conditioning, but they had lots of fans which helped. We would highly recommend!
This is our favorite accommodation when we visit Parksville. It is very quiet and we love having direct access to the walking trail in Rathtrevor Park. As four adults (two couples) traveling together, we also appreciate that both bedrooms are furnished with a large bed, making it a comfortable stay for all of us. The host is easy to reach and responds quickly to all enquiries.
This well appointed condo made our stay perfect!
As advertised, the location is on the beach, it couldn’t have been better. Instructions for entry, and other info about the property was well communicated. Very excited about returning again.
A wonderful unit in the quiet of Parksville right next to the park and Rathtrevor beach. Great communication and a spotless unit made this a completely stress free experience. Highly recommended!
This was our 4th year staying at this property and we all look forward to our get away every year....its a few steps to the beach and every morning we have a coffee on our favoriye log and take in the quiet morning. We love it and have created wonderful family memories......

This unit is a wonderful place that has a view of the ocean. It was clean, and very well stocked, more than any other place we have stayed at. The host provided great directions and information about the unit. Would go back in a heartbeat.
The location is amazing and the accommodation is expansive with an incredible view.The downside is that it is a little worn, the washrooms need updating (some tiles in tub should be replaced as well as fixtures in sink. The carpet need to be replaced as badly stained. Also the large blind in the large front window was stuck open so had to put a blanket up on it each night (I did contact the owner regarding this was told that should work but would have some look at it, I did say we could live with it but it would have been nice it is was repaired in the 7 days we were there.
We had a very nice stay. The location is so awesome. So easy to just walk back and forth to the beach. The condo was clean and had everything we needed. We have three young kids so the fold out mattresses in the second room got good use. Would definitely return.
