The perfect place for a quiet family vacation. The owner was really friendly, helpful and always tried to give us everything we needed to have a great time. The place was a fair size for 2 couples. The kitchen could have been bigger, but the the barbecue was fantastic and we did all of our cooking on that. We all really enjoyed the hot tub (Very Big). The beach was was great. My son really enjoyed the rock pools in the morning. We caught and saw lots of crabs and star fish. The sea was calm, which made it perfect for Kayaks. In the evenings we really enjoyed having fires and toasting marshmallows on the beach. It was in a great location, not too far from the ferry port and the main road gave us easy access to surrounding attractions. Great value for money! I would stay here again and would definitely recommend to friends.

I had the pleasure of staying at the Shady Shores Beach Resort / Beach Log Cabin the weekend of May, 26th 2012 and couldn't have been happier in doing so. The entire weekend was an incredibly relaxing and enjoyable time, with the accommodations right on the beach and the waves practically lapping at your doorstep.

The host was fantastic and made us feel so welcome - the sun was shining for the whole weekend and I honestly couldn't recommend this place more. All thumbs up.

From the moment we arrived, Carolyn the owner, made our "Mom's weekend away" very relaxing. From the clean cabins to the amazing view, we will return for sure! The hot tub is great place to relax and the beach combing is fantastic! There is a great little second hand store just up the road where we found some great treasures! I will be coming back again with the girls or the family. Thanks again Carolyn!

A Piece of Heaven!!! We traveled as a Large group, and occupied The stunning Beach Log Home along with a couple of suites at the adjoining Resort. Super clean, friendly staff, and location perfect to see the sites. What a treat to walk out your front door, and be right on the Beach. We all enjoyed scowering the beach for shells, and picked a bunch or clams and oysters for dinner. After the kids went down at night, we loved sitting in The hot tub with a glass of wine. To much to see and do in such a short space of time. We would highly reccomend either of these properties.

J'ai eu une semaine incroyable!

Près de l'océan, le paysage est de toute beauté. Chaque jour, on peut observer tant le faune marine qu'avienne, aigle royal, arlequin plongeur, phoques... J'ai plus qu'abusé du spa situé près de la mer.

Tout près de Toffino, de Nanaimo, de comox... Très bien situer si l'on veut visiter les alentours. Un endroit parfait pour ceux qui recherche la tranquilité. Pour les amateurs de pêche, j'ai vu beaucoup de pêcheurs aux saumons à l'oeuvre et leur pêche était fructueuse.

Qui plus est, le personnel est très discret et professionnel.

I stayed at Shady Shores 5 nights. Was fantastic! The place is really nice. Being in the Hot Tub watching at the ocean: Priceless. The location was perfect for my trip. It's not too far from Nanaimo, but it's enough far for being quiet. AND it was almost on my way going to Tofino (a little bit out of my way, but it worth going). The owner is a lovely woman. she wanted us to have a good time. i loved meeting her. Plus, the special (3rd night free) maked my wallet happy !

We booked our getaway for the labor day long weekend, and we had a fantastic time! The setting is simply extraordinary, the accommodation is well supplied and well maintained and the owner was very friendly and wonderfull with children. This place is perfect for kids, so much to do simply by staying at the resort: kayaking, beach combing or simply relaxing on the long chairs.
We got a fishing license and enjoyed yummy oysters right from the shore. We highly recommend this area and the Shady Shores resort, and we very much look forward to going back!

We recently stayed at Shady Shores (August 2011) and enjoyed it immensely. It is a great, exclusive-ish (because of its small size), off-the-beaten track resort. We loved the quiet, clean, serene accommodation/ and beach scene. The small coterie of elegant cabanas were full of families like ours, with young kids, who wanted a place to crash after a day full of local activity. We loved lounging on the shoreline deck chairs with a glass of white wine in hand while our daughter played on the beach...I highly recommend this place if you want to contemplate the surrounding BC - Bowser beauty without a lot of tourist noise & kitsch...

The owner is helpful and friendly and allows enough distance for guests to relax in peace.I would also recommend nearby Coombs market for its unique hippy character with good food and shopping.

This resort did seem a bit pricey (although not sure what similar places charge, so maybe fine?) but worth it for the quiet calm we sought and found.
