Sobre esta propriedade

Experience the Beauty of Vancouver Island - relax at Hobo's Pond Get Away.

Hobos Pond Get Away is located in the relaxing and picturesque community of Errington on Vancouver Island. Only a five minute drive from our charming cottage is the rugged and beautiful Englishman River Falls Provincial Park. And only twenty minutes by car guests can enjoy two of Vancouver Islands most picturesque towns - Parksville and Qualicum Beach. These charming towns have delightful seaside parks and walkways and offer all the modern conveniences for shopping.

Our comfortable Hobos Pond cottage can host five or six guests comfortably. There is a large deck on the front of the cottage looking down into the Englishman River. A short rustic hike from the deck and you will arrive at the rivers edge. From the rivers edge you can enjoy a swim in the fresh, clean pools in the river or hike a riverside trail through wonderful wooded forest. This trail is good for short hikes and picnics but for the hardy hiker you can hike all the way to Top Bridge Provincial park with it new suspension bridge and pot holes. On the way you will hike through a Nature's Trust Park where you will see picnic sites. It might take about one hour to hike all the way to Top Bridge Park.

This comfortable riverside Cottage offers three queen size beds and is suitable to host between five and six guests. There is a fully equipped kitchen with a washer and dryer. The living room has two leather loungers, a chesterfield and a TV where guests can watch Net Flix or Roku movies. The cottage is equipped with high speed internet suitable for guests who want to work while relaxing at Hobos Pond. A large deck with a picnic table, barbecue and loungers looks down into clean, clear pools of water in the Englishman River. A rustic trail leads within minutes to the rivers edge and our guests have the options of swimming and/or hiking the trails along the rivers edge.

This comfortable and charming cottage shares the property with our main house but is situated far enough away to provide guests with privacy.

On the main floor of the cottage is a bedroom screened off from the kitchen and living area. A very sturdy oak staircase leads to the loft with an additional two queen size beds. The main floor has a full bathroom and the loft has a toilet and sink so guests don't need to take the staircase to use the bathroom.

Hobos Pond Get Away is suitable for guests who wish to enjoy a quiet setting to relax and enjoy the fresh country air or for hikers and bikers who wish to explore the river and surrounding parks but still be close to the fresh food markets and seaside towns of Parksville and Qualicum Beach. Everyone is welcome. People who come to explore the island and hike, swim, enjoy yoga or just relax love it here.

Children over the age of 12 who do not need supervisiion are welcome at Hobos Pond.

We welcome smaller dogs who are kept on leash until they become familiar with the property. Then they can run around. Dogs absolutely love it here.

Come and enjoy this beautiful place with us. Welcome Marlene and Harvey

Wonderful, Peaceful Spot
We had a wonderful time at Hobo's Pond. Harvey and Marlene were lovely, and we had a nice chat with them upon arriving. The area is remote but easily accessible, and the property is lovely and full of life. The cabin itself was exactly what we were looking for: small and cozy, but with all the amenities.

Wonderful property!
Hobos Pond is the loveliest property, if you want majestic scenery, tranquility, wildlife, and hosts that go above and beyond, this is the place. Harvey and Marlene are the most wonderful people! They respect your privacy but are always available to chat, laugh, or to make your stay memorable. The cabin is well stocked and attention to everything one might need. Close to Parksville for groceries and restaurants. How grateful I feel to have found a little slice of nirvana! Thank you Harvey and Marlene!

Tranquil paradise
The property is magnificent- quiet, and very private. The river, a short walk away is equally magical and clean. The beach is just a 20 minute drive. The farmer’s market on Saturdays is just down the road. The house is very comfortable and spacious. Great bbq and space to entertain in. The owners/ hosts are such nice people and nearby to help with anything if necessary. We love staying here with our extended family and look forward to each return visit.

Sobre o anfitrião

Anfitrião: Marlene Prescott

Imagem do perfil do anfitrião
We are retired seniors. We purchased this property in 1989 and built the cottage in 1993. Initially, we lived in Burnaby and came to Vancouver Island for holidays and long weekends. We retired to our cottage in 2001. We love Vancouver Island and lived in our cozy little cottage until it felt too small. So we decided to build the main house. We moved into our larger home in 2015. We love living away in such a quiet coastal setting away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Although we are in a quiet rural setting we can get to town within a quick car trip. So we don't feel isolated. After moving into our new house, we realized that our cottage was now available to host guests who also wanted to get away to somewhere quiet. The property is named after a pond that Harvey enjoyed as a child.
We invite you enjoy a vacation at Hobo's Pond. We will do everything we can to help you enjoy this beautiful place.

Por que o anfitrião escolheu essa propriedade

We purchased this property because we love nature and we love being beside a river. Harvey has been fishing rivers since he was a child. He enjoys sharing his river fishing experiences with other fly fishermen.

This property has some special features. From our doorstep you can hike all the way to Top Bridge. Regional Park. You can actually hike all the way to Parksville if you are a serious hiker. Top Bridge is a fabulous place with a suspension bridge and pot holes that are a favourite swimming spot for locals and visitors. You can also get to Top Bridge via the main island highway.

The entire hike along the Englishman River is very picturesque. Part of the hike takes you through a Natures Trust Park. There are picnic sites in several locations in this park. For guests who only want to take only a short forest walk we recommend starting the trail at the end of the Englishman River Road (only a few feet from our driveway) and turn left at the junction and follow the trail until you come to the Morrison Creek. This is a short walk but it is picturesque and does not require anything other than running shoes and a hat. Or a walking stick if you have one. You can continue from there but we recommend just trying the short walk first. It is also wise to carry water on any hikes.

O que faz essa propriedade ser única?

The hobo cottage is very comfortable; it has a lovely large deck on the river side where you can look down into the Englishman River. The deck has a table and umbrella and a barbecue for guests who like to grill their food. Loungers are for guests who just want to read a book or soak up the forest scenery.

On the property and surrounding area are many native plants indigenous to this area: huckleberries, salmon berries, rose hips, salal, oregon grape, ferns, cedar - fir and hemlock evergreen trees, skunk cabbage, willows and many more. Native ducks make hobos pond their home. In the spring it is delightful to see the mother mallards with their babies and the wood ducks with their wee little ducks.

Even though this property is out of town and in the country it offers the traveler the ability to make quick trips to get food and gas. We are about a twenty minute drive from most modern shopping and amenities. We are 10 minutes from the General Store at Grafton and Englishman River Road where you can buy convenience items, gas and wine and beer. If you order a pizza from Panago Pizza in town they will deliver it to the Errington Store where you can pick it up from the delivery guy.

The cottage has comfortable beds and furniture and the TV has some local stations and Net Flix and Roku. Many of our guest work from the cottage. We have hi-speed internet for those people who combine a get away with work.

We are happy to answer guests questions and are happy to help guests have a great time here. We welcome all our guests to come and enjoy this tranquil place with us. Safe travels Marlene and Harvey
