The Artist Cabin – Oceanfront Retreat | Cottage in Lantzville
2 Bedroom Cottage in Regional District of Nanaimo, Lantzville
If you’re dreaming of a peaceful seaside retreat where the ocean is your front yard and nature sets the rhythm of your days, the Artist Cabin in Lantzville offers the perfect sanctuary. Available for stays of three months or longer, this cozy two-bedroom oceanfront cabin is designed for guests seeking rejuvenation, inspiration, and an extended taste of West Coast living.
Tucked away on a quiet stretch of coastline just minutes from north Nanaimo, the Artist Cabin offers the best of both worlds—serenity and seclusion with convenient access to shops, dining, and city amenities. From the moment you arrive, the sound of waves, the call of eagles, and the sight of seals or otters at play remind you that you’re somewhere truly special.
The cabin itself blends rustic charm with comfort. Inside, you’ll find two welcoming bedrooms—perfect for couples, visiting friends, or simply giving yourself the luxury of choice. A bright bathroom, a cozy fireplace for cooler evenings, and an inviting living space provide everything you need for an extended stay. Whether you’re curling up with a good book, working on a personal project, or simply watching the ocean shift with the light, this cabin makes slowing down effortless.
The fully equipped kitchen and barbecue make meal preparation a joy. For moments of indulgence, slip into the private hot tub and do some star-gazing. There’s nothing quite like soaking under the stars with the ocean breeze as your companion.
As a guest, you’ll also enjoy access to a unique ocean-edge tiny building perched right at the water’s edge. This tranquil space, with its large picture window, is ideal for journaling, painting, meditating, or simply gazing out at the horizon. Many find this little hideaway becomes the heart of their stay—a place for reflection, creativity, or quiet contemplation.
Nature lovers will be delighted by the abundance of wildlife. Bald eagles soar overhead, herons stalk the shoreline, and seals often pop up to say hello. The ever-changing tides bring new discoveries every day, turning even a morning coffee into an event worth savoring.
The Artist Cabin is also pet-friendly, welcoming one well-behaved dog to share in the adventure. Your furry friend will love exploring the shoreline and then curling up by the fire as the sun sets.
Above all, what makes the Artist Cabin extraordinary is its ability to provide rest and renewal. It is a place to breathe deeply, reconnect with yourself, and embrace the slower pace of oceanside living. Whether you’re seeking a creative sabbatical, a restful seasonal getaway, or simply a long-term escape from the ordinary, this Lantzville gem offers a truly unique home by the sea.
