Wildwood Rainforest Retreat: Jordan River Cabin

A wonderful slice of West Coast heaven. Enjoy this beautiful log cabin nestled in the rainforest. Great base for hiking, surfing or beachcombing adventures in southern Vancouver Island. Features: Self check in, 2 bedrooms with queen beds and a futon/sofa bed in the living room.. Full kitchen, dining area and bathroom, washer and dryer, Wi-fi, Smart TV and landline. Cozy wood burning stove. Covered deck and charcoal grill. Private yard and plenty of parking. Wildlife viewing opportunities in a private natural setting.

The space
The cabin was built with all elements of the west-coast in mind. Cosy wood-burning fireplace, complete with wood features, inside and out. The well-appointed kitchen has all the basics you'll need to create yummy food while you are here. We've also included a basic kit of additional toiletries should you be a forgetful packer.

Guest access
You will have private access to the whole cabin, outside deck and off-street parking. The cabin sits on 3 acres. I live in a separate house on the property.

Other things to note
If you're looking for a great coffee and fresh baked goods, visit the Cold Shoulder Cafe, located a kilometre away in Jordan River. Grab a pizza from Stoked Pizza and take it to the beach, or enjoy a lovely meal at Point No Point all located within 10 minutes drive back towards Sooke. As the nearest grocery store is also in Sooke, be sure to grab your supplies on your way in. We've stocked up on some basics - (salt, pepper, spices, oil, vinegar etc.) to get you started. NOTE: There is no cell coverage in the Jordan River area, however there is a landline for local calls and wi-fi in the cabin.

A really nice and secluded spot that is quiet and relaxing. It is really close to a lot of beaches and interesting places to explore. The property is very well equipped and the indoor fireplace makes for a cost environment. The host (Amy) was really helpful with any requests. All in all an awesome spot to stay!

Nice place very close to all the beaches
Very nice space. A stone's throw away from all the beaches (French, Sand Cut, Mystic, China). We visited them all. Walking distance to China beach. Amy is an excellent host, very friendly and quick to respond messages. We would certainly stay again.

So so so perfect
We truly had the best time staying here. We’re a group of 3 friends exploring the area and this home was exactly what we needed. There was plenty of space, everything was cozy and clean, and there are lots of walks and beaches within a short driving distance. We came very close to taking Daisy, the dog that lives next door, home with us. Thanks for being such a great host!

Cozy and rustic but with all the amenities you need! The washer/dryer saved us after rainy days on the beaches. Communication was super prompt and the location was perfect to explore the area. The wood burning fireplace was such a bonus and the tv offerings gave us something to do during our down times. Excellent!

We appreciated the quiet surroundings. Daisy the dog kept us company. She didn’t know it but it made our day. The wood fireplace was just perfect. Comfortable beds and furniture. Loved the mint shampoo and body soap. Simply nothing negative to share!

Fantastic Stay!
Wildwood Rainforest Retreat was amazing! Tall ceilings, gorgeous knotty wood interior, every kitchen convenience for lots of home cooking - even a slow cooker so we could return to a hot meal after a day exploring nearby wilderness. We had a fire outside one night and in the wood burner stove in the main room another. I’d definitely recommend this to friends and hope to book again soon. Daisy the dog is a super host, and the frogs nearby a treat to sweet dreams.

This was our second time in the last year. We thoroughly loved the location and the peace and quiet. We recommend this place and will return. Love your friendly dog, I’m guessing it was Daisy just by her gentle approach. We loved having her visit us. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Enjoyable Cozy Stay
Great cabin out of the way in a beautiful part of the island. Tons of beaches nearby that was perfect for the us and the dog to explore. Kitchen was well stocked with equipment to cook our meals. Fire ban was in effect during our stay but the outside fire pit steps from the front door would have been great. Plus the resident dog Daisy and our dog enjoyed a bit of play time together which was great.

Cozy and quiet
This cabin was the perfect place for my two children and myself as we explored the west coast of Vancouver island. The place was bright, cozy and beautiful. Close to several great beaches and tucked among the beautiful forest, the location was lovely. Beds are comfortable, kitchen is well stocked and open, shower is good and the location is quiet. Check in was simple and we very much enjoyed our time. We visited nearby beaches, and towns and restaurants and really relaxed and enjoyed our time!

Wonderful cabin near beautiful beaches
Spacious, comfortable cabin surrounded by trees. Very clean and well appointed with everything you need. I especially appreciated how well equipped the kitchen was, the fact that there were dishwasher, washing machine and dryer, the kind gesture of a welcome basket of delicious wine and snacks, and the thoughtfulness of providing coffee, tea and things like olive oil, salt, pepper, herbs etc. Short daily visits by Daisy the dog were much appreciated. We were there during a heatwave and appreciated the shade and outlook provided by the surrounding trees. The cabin had a wood fire oven which I imagine would be very cozy to use during the colder months. China beach, Mystical beach, Sandcut beach and French beach are all nearby. Botanical beach, Botany Bay and Sooke potholes as well as Victoria are within easy driving distance. Overall we loved our stay and can highly recommend the cabin.
