It was incredible. Everything in the place was high-end, beautifully appointed, and welcoming. We were only there two nights and I wish it could have been more. The views were incredible although the first day seafog obliterated our view.the host...

FRESH AND CLEAN | Exceptional Hygiene. Uncompromising cleaning and hygiene - additional cleaning, sanitizing and hygiene practices in all areas with particular emphasis on high touch points and hard surfaces. My luxury get-a-way is nestled in a coastal cottage community; situated on a high forested bluff overlooking San Juan Bay. We offer the most amazing views of the ancient of the West Coast Trail - a hike of a lifetime. Wildlife flourishes in abundance. Watch bald eagles and osprey; it is a birders’ delight. This is the magic of Bjørn Holm. Bjørn Holm showcases original artwork and traditional carvings, custom woodwork and hand-crafted furniture. Every aspect charms. The beauty is in the detail. Cook with a view. Eat with a view. Relax with a view. Visit us at Bjornholm (dot) ca for more details and photos; including driving suggestions and a printable map showing our exact location in the Wild Coast Cottage Development.
We are experienced traveler's and guests but are now hosting for the first time. I live in North Saanich (Vancouver Island) BC, Canada. We have lived and worked together for 40+ years selling custom, quality lumber and wood flooring at West Wind Hardwood Inc. We love to travel; whether a road trip, camping/canoeing trip; trips by air or on the water in our classic wooden boat. We have two adult girls. One lives locally and the other lives far too far away in Western Australia. Sadly my wife, Shelley of 45 years passed away July 2023 of a failed bone marrow transplant. I keep her mentioned as a legacy to what she has helped created, partners in life's adventures. Jan Nielsen
Port Renfrew was a resource-based community; the local wharf its hub and is in transition. It is a relaxed, friendly village always ready to help visitors enjoy their backyard of coastal, natural wonders. Port Renfrew is the gateway to ancient forests, epic hikes, and mighty surf – to the eagle and the salmon and Sitka spruce. From here, you can trek, paddle, comb the beaches or cast your line. Frommer’s describes Vancouver Island as “a mountainous bulwark of deep-green forests, rocky fjords, and wave-battered headlands. For an area so easily accessible by car, the range of wildlife here is surprising: Bald eagles float above the shorelines, seals and sea lions slumber on rocky islets, and porpoises and orca whales cavort in narrow passes between islands”. We are stone's throw from the Carmanah/Walbran UNESCO biosphere, the head of the West Coast Trail and the Botanical Beach.
