Driftwood Village

I was travelling solo in the Southern Gulf Islands and stayed 2 nights at Driftwood Village. My room had everything I needed. I was travelling by foot, so the distance to shops and the ferry was perfectly manageable. Tue room is cozy and the bed is very comfortable. It rained while I was tied, so I was not able to enjoy relaxing on my cute patio or in the beautiful garden areas. For nature lovers,

Driftwood Village was a pleasant surprise at Mary Ann Point on Galiano Island. We stayed in the Deer Cottage which is just perfect for two people. The cottage was much larger than I expected with a kitchenette and a full-sized bathroom - - which was in excellent condition and extremely tidy. We had our own private parking spot as well as a patio deck with table and chairs. It was the perfect shady nook for a summer day. It’s always better to have a car, but you can reach the property easily on foot. Probably 40-minutes on foot. Beach Site 14 on Galiano offers a stunning view of Active Pass with large ferry boats passing through it - - as well as the possibility of a pod of orcas. We stayed 4 days, but I think we could have enjoyed the cottage for several weeks. They have larger cottages which I also hope to investigate next summer. Heather made our arrival and departure easy. If you are looking for quiet privacy, a cozy cottage, in lovely surroundings, I encourage you to consider Driftwood Village.

We arrived early at 10:30am and contacted Heather. She had the room ready for us in half an hour, so no need to wait till 3 pm to check in. The property was quiet. Sitting on the balcony and listened to music in the morning was my favorite. We had the cabin with 2 rooms. Living room and the 2 rooms were decent size. The kitchen has everything you need to make breakfast and small meals. WiFi is solid. Only negative is hot water kind of runs at night, but I believe that's common on the island.
