Nimpkish Hotel

8/10 Good
"There were hairs in the tub, but the place is charming. The big beware is the ferry schedule they attach to your welcome email- it is 4 years old and doesn’t match the new BC Ferries schedule at all. Use the online ferry schedule. We showed up an hour and a half early! But nice service."

Beautiful new 3 bedroom house with stunning ocean views! A short walk to marina.

10/10 Excellent
"This spectacular home was perfect for our stay at Telegraph Cove. The views were absolutely beautiful! Wildlife could be seen right from the lovely patio - killer whales, humpback whales, an eagle, an otter, a mink. The house was clean, spacious and as described. Beds were comfy and bathrooms were roomy and well supplied. The kitchen was perfect for preparing and cleaning up meals. The dining area was more than adequate for our group of 6 adults. Several members of our party especially enjoyed the hot tub after long days of bear and whale watching. It was only a short walk to the Cove for those who wanted to go for a stroll. Communication to/from the host was excellent. We feel extremely blessed that the owner was willing to share this little slice of heaven with us!"
