Not everyone wants to rough it in the bush — not all of the time, at least. Now you can retreat to a private waterfront cottage as the day wanes. Enjoy all of the creature comforts, without sacrificing your wild side. A stay at the new Wild Renfrew Seaside Cottages is like being nestled in a plush log cabin at the end of the world.
Our exclusive two-bedroom home makes for the ultimate vacation experience. Situated on an outcropping above the bay, this ‘penthouse’ cottage features outdoor living space and deck with 180-degree views. Beautifully appointed with luxurious furnishings, granite countertops, and stainless steal appliances.
Our two-bedroom beachfront duplexes boast floor-to-ceiling windows with prime views of the Port of San Juan, West Coast Trail and surrounding bluffs. Cottages are equipped with high-end furnishings, stainless steel appliances and stone fireplaces. Decks overlook a private beach.
In addition to all of the amenities offered by our Beachfront 2 Bedroom cottages, this unit has a private fire pit and seating area overlooking the beach and ocean. Don’t forget to bring marshmallows!
Our cozy wharfside studios open right onto the pier, offering stunning ocean, mountain and marina views, king beds and kitchenettes. Driving along the dock may take some getting used to, but it’s simply the path to your front door.

The atmosphere is so peaceful. The WiFi coverage was good enough that I was able to sit out on the porch in front of the fire pit to complete schoolwork. The views are spectacular. I left feeling refreshed.
My best friend and I showed up a bit late because we were stopping to explore Vancouver Island on our way there. Despite arriving after hours, all of our information was readily available by email and hardcopy. The restaurant next door even knew who we were because staff had informed them of our late arrival. Entry was easy and the place was beautiful! Very clean and had everything we needed. We had the cottage with the private firepit and wood was chopped and waiting to be burned. We never used the TV but the Bluetooth speaker was everything we needed. Wi-Fi was great but do note there is no cell service for quite sometime before you get to Port Renfrew so we heavily relied upon the WiFi.
We were worried about showing up late but the restaurant next door had food and off sales to tide us over. And the cute breakfast place was open by 7am (only 800m away).
The view was by far the BEST part. The cottage was very private and right on the water. I would recommend this wonderful place to anyone!
Thank you Seaside Cottages! It was worth every penny ;)

We stayed one night in Cabin #7 right on the dock at Wild Renfrew. Beautiful views out front overlooking the bay. Sunshine and coffee on the deck in the morning. The cabin had a microwave, sink, dishes, coffee maker and supplies as well as a TV. The room and bed were very comfortable.
We would certainly come back for a visit even though we live on Vancouver Island!

Only had one night in 2 bedroom cottage on waterfront but thoroughly enjoyed every moment from when we stepped onto this awesome property. The front desk was super friendly as well as other staff. The location is just beautiful as well as the actual cottage itself. There is a small gas fire ring out on deck in front of each cottage - our neighbors were out in their PJ's enjoying coffee around the fire in the morning. The full kitchen was useful for our own breakfast which is handy. We had dinner at the Port Renfrew pub just a few steps down from our cottage - best Caesar ever! Over all a peaceful one night getaway - highly recommended! Looking forward to staying again!

We are very pleased to recommend this accommodation. The staff (Martin) was helpful, friendly and very welcoming. The room was very clean and well appointed. We enjoyed the fireplace as well as the outdoor fire pit. The linens and bed were high end and comfortable and the bathroom was clean and fresh. Now to the best part! The room is built out along a wharf and had a small front yard with a fire pit and patio chairs. The lovely sound of water gently splooshing to and fro helped us sleep the best we both have slept in weeks. There was no traffic noise , no construction noise, no industry noise, just the gentle sound of waves lapping against the pilings. HEAVENLY! We cannot wait to return.

Wild Renfrew Cottages are absolutely phenomenal. I didn't know what to expect the first time visiting and was pleasantly surprised at how in love I fell with this place. The Ocean views & the rustic yet clean/modern feels are just perfect. Surrounded by lush coastal greenery and powerful ocean, you can't go wrong staying here.
Can't say a negative thing about this place. It's unique, beautiful, and truly an island gem. ❤️

Our private beach is a natural space to socialize and dine, and there are plenty of ways for kids to work up an appetite. Gather your favourite folks to toast the sunset. At dusk, grab a blanket and a bottle and cuddle up with a crackling beach fire.
Cottage guests are the first to know when a storm rolls in. Pull on your cozy sweater, the comfortable socks, and hunker down by the fire with a glass of something warm. When the skies darken and the wind ramps up, you’ll have a front-row seat for the waves lashing your windows. Marvel at the force of nature, then slip back under the duvet.
