Best spot on the island!

We loved staying at this comfortable, beautiful cottage. Such a beautiful location and such a quiet bay. We are grateful that we could enjoy it for a week! It is a little complicated to bring everything needed for preparing meals since we came by airplane to Vancouver, but it was worth the trip and carrying our food staples across the country!

Best unit in the development, hands down

It was perfect! Such a beautiful spot with unobstructed views of the water and Otter Bay. The cottage is well appointed, really cozy. When I get a chance to go back to Pender (which itself is amazing), I'll be trying to snag this unit again. We were there in the off season so not much was happening, but the complex has a lot to offer - games room, pools, marina (if you've got a boat). And the host, Sue, was quick to provide info and reply to messages and made sure the place was a good fit for us before accepting our reservation. I definitely recommend this one!

Picture Perfect Getaway

While sitting at the dining table of our VRBO cabin on Pender Island, we could gaze out through the large picture windows at the beauty of the Salish Sea. We watched the antics of the cormorants and seagulls flying overhead and, in the far distance, we could see one of the B.C. ferries slowly sailing back and forth to Victoria or the other Gulf Islands. So beautiful. So relaxing, especially after coming back from one of the many amazing hikes on this gorgeous island.

Our little get away.

The rental unit was clean, cozy and a beautiful view. It had everything we needed for our stay. The Island is very scenic with lots of hikes and spots to sit and enjoy the surroundings. Would definitely come back and recommend it to other people.

A slice of gulf islands heaven

My family of 4 had a wonderful first visit to Otter Bay. It is very quiet here during March, as expected, but that is what we needed. I wouldn't change a thing about this cozy cottage on the Bay!

What a view!

We've stayed in many many untis at Currents and this cabin is BY FAR the best. The view from each room is stunning. It feels very private and cozy. The best part is you get the best of both worlds: and open ocean view and a marina view. Our kids loved watching all the boats come and go. If this unit is free, act fast!

We couldn't have asked for a more comfortable 'home away from home'. Everything that we needed was there and easy to find. The views were fantastic and the check-in/check-out were seamless. Any questions that we had were quickly responded to and the information provided was very helpful.
