Gingerbread Cottage in Lower Kings Beach! Unique Home for Unforgettable Stay!

"The Gingerbread Cottage"

One-of-a-kind cottage in lower Kings Beach! This unique cottage is perfect for a romantic getaway or small family stay! Sleeps up to 4 adults OR 4 adults plus one child (under 12).

This unique home is completely fenced and located in the heart of Kings Beach! The property known as “The Gingerbread Cottage” by locals has a distinct look inside and out.

The intimate octagon family room on the main floor has TV and a Blu-Ray (with Wi-Fi) player with surround sound and a Firestick to stream your personal Netflix, Hulu, Amazon etc. Stay warm on those cool nights with the convenience of the freestanding gas stove. This room can also function as a second sleeping area with use of the new queen sleeper sofa.

The main floor bathroom has a slate walk-in shower with a gentle rain shower head. Additional note: this toilet area is tightly built like being on a boat, so may not be best for larger individuals.

Enjoy cooking with a full furnished kitchen and high-top dining table and gas fireplace. Unpack and stay awhile using the new, unitized washer and dryer.

Inside you can snuggle in the queen-sized bed with the comforts of memory foam and quality linens under a 20-foot teepee CEILING in the octagon shaped large master suite. And enjoy the bright, updated bath with heated porcelain floors. There is also a twin bed in the Master bedroom.

In the summer you'll love having two decks, one for grilling and one rooftop for views, and use of bikes and kayaks, you might spend just as much time outside as inside!

With the most unique house in the area and a prime location, you cannot go wrong with this romantic Gingerbread Cottage!

Adorable little cabin
Very clean, and adorable cabin. My wife and I stayed here for our honeymoon, and absolutely loved it. Many places to eat, and shop nearby. Neighborhood was quiet. Nice peaceful surroundings is what we wanted, and that's what we got. If I could suggest anything, a window a/c unit upstairs for the summer would be great. It got warm up there, and didn't really cool down until later, even with all the windows open.

Magical stay
Cozy cottage that captures a rustic feel and charm, without going overboard. Beautiful in the snow. Well appointed kitchen. Size is just right for couples or a small group, but it's not large. Good restaurants nearby and close to the slopes. Very happy we stayed!

A Bit Worn and Creaky
Looked much better in the pictures. Worn and stained carpets, creaky and steep stairs with wobbly handrail. TV did not work and it took 2 days and multiple phone calls to mgt company before someone came out at 7pm to fix it (took 1/2 hour). The yard was a nice place to sit and our dog enjoyed it very much. Bed is comfortable.

A great location for Kings Beach and a lovely clean property. Spacious and relaxing back yard. Ideal for a couple, individual or Mom/Dad with little ones. Our Labrador LOVED all the smells in the back yard and exploring the nooks and crannies.

Great Stay - Great Location
Loved our stay here. Very well equipped house, including beach stuff (chairs, kayaks etc). Lots of outdoor space and comfortable beds. Location is close to the kings beach area but secluded from the hustle-bustle. The only issue we had is that the bikes were not in ridable shape, even though we notified the host ahead of time that we would like to use them as was suggested in the rental instructions... Not a big deal... we would definitely stay here again.

Great House/Great Location
Overall this was a great house for a couple night get away. The backyard is fantastic and provided lovely shade throughout the day for relaxing under the trees. Ultra convenient to walk to the beach, restaurants and shops. My only negative, there are a lot of different smells in this home. Nothing foul or rancid, but it seems like they are trying to mask smells with other “scents”. The bed sheets smelled incredibly strong of detergent or some kind of spray that made it difficult to sleep. They could use a few more tools for the grill/kitchen, but it was manageable. Would definitely recommend and stay again!

Charged $70.00 for a Rug
It was not very clean. The microwave did not work. It was dusty and cobwebs hung from the lights and ceiling. We were willing to overlook the faults because it was a charming, well located cottage. Then I got a bill for $70.00 for a kitchen rug that was filthy when we arrived and must have been ruined after we left because it looked nothing like the photo they sent.

The best getaway!
My husband and I needed a little getaway and the Gingerbread Cabin was the perfect place to get away from all of life’s hustles and bustles. We were able to take a few steps back and relax, snuggle, read books and be cozy near the fire. This cute cabin hits all the feels ♥️

Great Location and perfect for a weekend away
The Gingerbread Cottage was perfect for a weekend away with my wife and dogs. The cottage was nicely appointed and felt like home away from home. The location is within walking distance to restaurants/shops in Kings beach and we walked to both the Grid and Whitecaps pizza. The yard was perfect for our dogs and we enjoyed spending time on the deck when the sun came out. We would definitely stay at this location again.

Cute vacation spot
This rental had everything we needed and was so close to town. A very cute well thought out rental and we would love to stay again. The only thing that was kind of a bummer was that the snow in the backyard and the balcony was not safe enough to walk around in (up to my waist) but nothing they could control!
