Me and my family spent a long weekend on the island for a memorial, and this wonderful cottage was our home for those days.
We spent several nights just sitting under the stars, talking about life. It felt like we were kids again, in a warm and welcoming home in a small and friendly town.
Highly recommend.

We had an amazing three-night stay at the Chicken Inn over the Victoria Day weekend. My wife, our two dogs, and I thoroughly enjoyed this charming cottage on Vancouver Island. The location is perfect—secluded enough to feel like a true retreat, yet conveniently close to Parksville and just a 30-minute drive from Nanaimo.
The fenced yard was fantastic for our dogs, who were participating in agility trials nearby. They loved the space to run and play safely. My wife adored the hot tub, which provided the perfect way to unwind after busy days. The bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring we all had restful nights.
The kitchen, though small, was very functional and well-equipped with a stove and fridge. We enjoyed cooking our meals and made good use of the BBQ and propane fire pit in the front yard, which added to the cozy, homey atmosphere.
The host, Shantel, was wonderful and communicative, making sure we had everything we needed. She even offered us fresh chicken eggs for breakfast, which was a delightful touch since my wife loves chickens. The presence of chickens on the property added a unique and charming element to our stay.
Overall, our experience at the Chicken Inn was exceptional. It’s a perfect spot for a peaceful and enjoyable getaway, and we would love to return. Highly recommended for anyone looking to relax and enjoy the beauty of Vancouver Island!

Was over all a cute little place to stay. My friends and I enjoyed the hot tub to relax in and also liked the propane fire pit.
The host was very helpful in anything we needed and very friendly!

Clean, great set-up, great communication & the hot tub was a lovely added bonus. We’ll be back the next time we are near Parksville.

A lovely stay in a clean and cozy home. All amenities were present, the queen bed very comfortable and we loved the friendly chickens that ate out of our hands.

This is an quaint little place The hot tub is nice to sit in during the evenings It is located by the green door in the picture and is relatively new to this property The host is very fast at responding to anything you need Also has a propane fire ring which was nice to sit outside with it on Very clean.
A motion light would be nice as it was dark so early at this time of year
