Sage Cottage at The Last Resort on Berry Point Road on Gabriola Island, B.C.
Views of the Salish Sea and amazing sunsets. Otters, California sea lions, seals and bald eagles are just some of the wildlife you can watch with Humpback Whales and Orca as well. This cottage is also warm and wonderful in the winter months watchingthe waves crash and dramatic skies. This heritage cottage sits about 40 feet above the water offering unobstructed views. There is a full size BBQ on the deck for guest usage, along with utensils.
Berry Point Rd comes to a dead end at the most spectacular view point of the light house, the mainland and of course the sunsets. Few cars go by and so it is quiet and peaceful. We are about 7 minutes from the village by car at the north end of the island.
If you are traveling from the mainland by ferry make sure to buy an Experience Card. You have to pre-load it with $115 but you will use this for the trip and it will give you a 40% discount on the ferry to Gabriola, which is worth about $20. For those walking over by ferry you can get a taxi or the local bus named Gertie who meets the ferries. A second cottage ("Aqua Cottage") on this property is sometimes available for simultaneous booking, so two groups could book together.

Lovely little cottage with a fabulous view!
Great location but needed some cleaning. Discussed the issues & sent photos to the owner and she advised it was a new cleaner and would bring it up with them. Hopefully, they get the housekeeping issues resolved as it was a great location! Beautiful sunsets!!

Cute cottage
Landlord very nice and helpful, cottage is perfect for two. Everything you would need on a vacation. We did not use much of the available dishes etc as my sister lives on the Island and we spent most of our time at their place. I recommend the place for a fun time and views are amazing watching the ferry boats and water always relaxing.

Gabriola Getaway
Alison was so friendly and helpful - it was a delight to get to know her. Sitting on the swing seat each night, facing the ocean, was truly relaxing. The kayaking around the coast and islets here is wonderful. We had a great week!
The property was as advertised. Hosts were excellent, very helpful. The only small issue was locating the property once on the island. GPS requires an address complete with street number.
A very comfortable little cottage; peaceful; with a beautiful view!

This one’s a keeper!
Our stay at Sage Cottage was excellent…all was as described. Alison was a gem with greeting us and giving us tips for things to do near by the cottage and on Gabriola. We ate next door at the Surf Lodge a coulpe times, which was handy. The sunsets 🌅 from the cottage porch were breathtaking. Highly recommend the vacation cottage!
The property was exactly what we were looking for. So quiet and comfortable! Had all the amenities we needed.
Weather was perfect and accomplished what I wanted to do and that was relax for a few days. On top of that Alison and Kevin were amazing hosts!
Highly recommend this property!
Thank you Alison and Kevin!!
And thank you Gabe for being a great host as well

Great Stay on Gabriola!
Had a great stay at this cabin, nice views of the water and amazing sunsets! It was convenient being next to the surf lodge, which has food/drinks, and a close drive in to the centre for groceries and the market. The cabin was well finished and suited the two of us perfectly!

Perfect For Two
We enjoyed the cottage very much, very clean, well equipped gracious host and location spectacular.
Will definitely visit again !
Sage Cottage is a across the road from a rocky beach, and the sunsets are breathtaking. The cottage is cozy; our only complaint is that the bed was uncomfortable. Gabriola Island is beautiful. There are several sandy beaches and lots of trails to walk. Thanks to hosts, Alison and Keith, for a very pleasant stay.

So grateful for this sweet little spot on Gabe! Perfect location across from the beach and all the amenities we needed. The owner was a great communicator. I won’t hesitate to re-book this place for my next family visit on the island, and would recommend it highly.

Splendid stay - Can hardly wait to return
It is a lovely cottage set far back from the road on a beautiful rambling property that is very peaceful.
Our cottage looked out on to the Pacific ocean and we got to watch the changing colours of the sky at sunset.
Close to everything- cottage is well designed and has a lovely big front porch where my shaggy Newfoundland dog spent many hours. Very nice couple - very helpful and capable. Terrific!

Perfect time at Gabriola
We spent 3 nights at the Sage cottage. What a great little place to explore Gabriola. The views are fabulous. We had a great lunch at the surf pub next door. The owners were very friendly.
