About this property

For your peace of mind, we have improved our infection control strategy thorough disinfecting of the suite with natural alcohol based products. We use environmentally friendly cleaning products to avoid any sensitivities you might have.
Relax in a beautifully finished two-bedroom suite including laundry and a four piece bath with heated tile floors to give you a truly home away from home experience.
This 1000 square foot suite has been recently renovated with an emphasis on clean, simple lines while not sacrificing the character which is achieved through special touches like hundred-year-old reclaimed fir doors, prominent fir trim, and natural light solar tubes.
There is a BBQ on the patio, if you enjoy cooking outside. Next to your patio is an organic herb garden for the gourmet in your group.
Between the extra sound insulation and comfortable king and queen sized beds you can be assured that you wake up refreshed. A full queen sized sofa bed is also available for groups of more than four people.
The private entrance opens onto reclaimed brick patio area for a morning coffee, an 'al fresco' barbecue or evening nightcap.
Continental breakfast is included in the price, if you booked after February 13th, 2022. We serve local bagels, cream cheese, eggs, yogurt, butter, cream, juice, instant oatmeal and fruits in season. If you have any dietary restrictions, please let us know before your arrival.

Our stay at Mossyhill guesthouse

This was a perfect base from which to explore Salt Spring Island. The property is well appointed, with everything you could possibly need, is very comfortable and beautifully located. Bruce and Luba were very easy to deal with. We loved our stay and would not hesitate to recommend it. One comment though is that the sofa bed, whilst very comfortable, is a little tight for 2 adults so it might be more accurate to say that it sleeps 5 rather than 6.

Tranquil Getaway

Mossy Hill was the perfect peaceful getaway for my family. Impeccably kept, and centrally located on the island, it was all we could have asked for. We’ll be back for sure!

Lovely place

Lots of room for our group of 5 people. Comfy mattresses and pillows. Friendly hosts. Close drive to town (4 minutes), though not walking distance (road to town has no shoulder).

Perfect getaway

Beautiful fully appointed accommodations in a quiet neighborhood but very close to all amenities. Spotless and very comfortable with a living room overlooking a wonderful garden. Exactly as advertised. Luba is an excellent host who communicates very well with guests.

About the host

Hosted by Bruce & Luba Martens

We are a couple living on Salt Spring Island for about 12 years and loving it. A few years ago, we have decided to become self-sufficient and planted an orchard with fig, pear and apple trees as well as grapes and blueberries. Although we both grew up in the big cities, we enjoy the country life style and comfort of our home with lovely two cats, Mister and Lizka.

Why they chose this property

Our property is a 3 minute drive to Ganges yet it is away from the main road in a peaceful setting. The herb garden outside of the suite offers our guests fresh ingredients for their culinary needs. If you have an eye for detail, you will notice a tasteful touch in the interior design of the suite done by Bruce . We value the privacy of our guests by having their own entrance, an outside picnic area with the barbecue and their own driveway.

What makes this property unique

One of the many aspects that drew us to this property, is the 90 million year old conglomerate that was once an under ocean landslide. The entire acre is seated firmly on the rock featuring fascinating encapsulated clasts of quartz and granite. This background is constantly inspiring the creativity in us manifesting in continuous evolution of additional adornments via mosaics, woodwork and landscape ideas.
