The quotes below are hand-picked (first names only), and they include some honest four-star ones — this is a rustic cabin up a hill, and we'd rather you know that before you book than after you arrive. Every review, unfiltered, is on Airbnb and VRBO.
“The cabin is gorgeous, flooded with natural light and tucked away in the trees. The place is well equipped with everything you need for your stay and very clean. The soaker tub is a dream. It was an absolute pleasure staying here.”
“This is our second time back here, and it's still a cozy haven. The view is gorgeous and full of trees, and the space is private and quiet. The light coming in through the various windows in the morning is a beautiful way to start the day!”
“A gorgeous happy nest indeed! Lovely secluded spot. I really appreciated the little detail of leaving a few candles for us to enjoy.”
“I LOVED this property so much! The moment I walked in I instantly felt relaxed... I literally sat down on the floor with those beautiful big windows surrounding me and took in the sunlight. This was a very well done level of upcycling that I have ever seen and so comfortable and welcoming. Would highly recommend staying here ❤️”
“Really lovely cabin in the woods. The extras long bath tub with abundant hot water was a real treat. Bruce event provided more firewood for me as I was thrilled to have the fire going most of the time. I would easily stay here again.”
“Such an adorable cabin nestled on a hillside in the forest. Homey and cozy, and the large windows and bathtub were so nice for relaxing in the rainy March weather. Bruce was super responsive and helpful.”
“Incredible place! Will definitely be coming back :) favourite cabin of all time! So cozy and extra special to see the moonlight from the windows”
“We absolutely loved our stay at the Happinest and would not hesitate to book again! Vibes were immaculate. Very comfortable bed. Loved feeling immersed in the woods with forest views out of every window, including the bathroom! Excellent location. Thanks so much for a wonderful visit.”
“Highly recommend this cozy little cabin among the trees! The photos didn’t do the space justice. It was a perfect place to unwind and recharge. Bruce and Kathe were wonderful hosts! They were very friendly/quick to respond and made us feel welcomed! My partner and I look forward to future getaways to this beautiful cabin.”
“Exceptionally peaceful space! Perfect place to relax while central to the island for quick car rides wherever you might want to go. Especially easy to Ganges. Multiple ways to keep you warm if you are a winter traveler (like me). Fireplace and electric heating. If you like cozy cabin vibes, this is the spot to go!”
“Our second visit to the nest and we hope for many more in the future, it’s quickly become a very special place for us. It’s romantic private and magical! Exactly what the heart desires when arriving on SSI. Thank you to our wonderful hosts and the little island we love the most!”
“Rustic and cozy. Everything we needed. Beautiful location in the trees , quiet and peaceful but close to Ganges and amenities there . Host is super helpful with great communication. Lovely stay!”
“Comfortable, nice interiors and well maintained, with good amenities. The hosts were friendly, and helpful. The cabin was in a quiet, private forest setting and we were able to have a peaceful getaway experience. Thank you.”
“Loved this cabin, nestled in the trees. Gorgeous deck, cozy bed and decor, lots of natural light. I would definitely stay again.”
“Cute. Cozy. Comfortable. Decently stocked kitchen (with a water kettle for you fellow tea drinkers), comfy bed, and a large tub great for a relaxing bath. Bruce was welcoming, checked in on us at the beginning of our stay, and was very responsive when we needed something. We enjoyed our stay in this cozy gem.”
“What an amazing cabin! Loved every minute. Wild blackberries growing right outside the door, super comfortable bed, well equipped kitchen, a bbq and the longest bathtub in the history of the world. Our hosts were excellent and offered many ideas of great places to visit. Can’t wait to come back!”
“We had a cozy stay at Bruce & Kathe's cabin. It felt private yet still close to amenities. The long bath tub was a nice addition and we enjoyed having a fireplace + kitchen.”
“We had a great stay at Ahappinest! The cottage is very private, clean and wonderfully rustic, with fully stocked kitchen and a great DVD collection. Minutes drive from beaches and coffee shops. We would definitely book again!”
“If you're looking for a five star hotel this isn't it. But if you want privacy in nature it is great. The cabin is basic, but comfortable. (No microwave or dishwasher, which we didn't miss, but others might want.) The bed is comfortable and it is close to town. The hosts were friendly and helpful, but pretty much left us to our own, which is what we were looking for. For couples looking for some time together and a break from the fast-paced working world, this is for you. We will be back.”
“This cabin has a rustic charm that is quite lovely. The bed is very comfy and the big tub is amazing. The driveway, especially the hill up to the cabin, is pretty rough, so I wouldn’t attempt it with a low clearance vehicle. But waking up to the birds and the sun streaming through the massive windows was very calming, good for a weekend away!”
“Cozy cabin with rustic charm. Only a short drive into Ganges. The bed and living room furniture were really comfortable and we loved all of the natural light streaming in from the many windows throughout the home. Though there were a few small aspects of the space that could use some care, you can see the love that Ahappinest has poured into the space.”
