Location

 

Port Renfrew is located just 1.5 hours from Victoria and 2 hours from Nanaimo and is popular for fishing, cycling and hiking. Surfing, paddle boarding and kayaking down the Jordon River is also very popular. There are also many places to hike and explore including the gorgeous Botanical Beach and the old growth of Avatar Grove. Whether it’s ancient tall trees, gorgeous beaches, five-star fishing, surfing, or world famous hiking along the West Coast Trail everything is steps away from your front door. 

For the small size of Port Renfrew, there are numerous options to enjoy great food and drinks in the local area. The Renfrew Pub, Coastal Kitchen Cafe, Tomi's Home Cooking, and Bridgeman's Restaurant are all great choices that consistently receive outstanding reviews. A limited selection of groceries including beer, wine and spirits can be purchased at the Port Renfrew General Store (open from 9am-7pm every day). Gas, diesel and propane are available at the new gas station. There are a few cafes and bistros available just minutes away from the cottage. Debit and credit cards are accepted at all major establishments.

It is important to note that there are power outages that occur in Port Renfrew, so please be prepared. Port Renfrew is ruggedly beautiful, and part of it's charm is that it is extremely isolated. A downfall of the isolation, is that if the weather causes a tree to fall on the power lines, or some other incident occurs, power will be out and it may take a few- numerous hours to be repaired by BC Hydro. The power outages are completely out of our control. We do provide LED lanterns for light, and the stove, bbq, and outdoor fireplace will work (light them with the long lighters provided). As well, there should hopefully be enough hot water in the tank to last the outage and the fireplace will still work to keep you warm.
