Garden Suite in Squamish

JosephRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Niki’s place was perfect for a family getaway! There were some books and toys for our little guy to keep busy. The location was perfect for what we wanted - quiet, but still close to cute cafes! Niki and her husband were also very communicative and flexible with our little guy’s nap needs and gave excellent Squamish recommendations! Thanks for having us guys!

MattieRating, 5 stars1 week ago
I couldn’t recommend this home more! Every detail is beautiful inside and outside the home, and the entire space is immaculately clean. We loved the access to the outdoor amenities and utilized them all after long days of hiking in the surrounding areas.

Suite Retreat: Brackendale

MikeRating, 5 stars4 days ago
Great stay in Squamish! The space was private, easy to find with clear directions, and had everything I needed to feel at home. I used it as a weekend retreat to relax and ride my mountain bike. The host was very accommodating—providing shed storage and even helping me charge my e-bike. A wildfire started nearby before my visit, and the host kept me fully informed with updates and even offered the option to cancel. I chose to stay and was glad I did—the local firefighters kept things well under control. The location is beautiful, peaceful, and a perfect home base for adventure. I squeezed in two rides and two hikes nearby. Loved the quiet neighborhood and the spacious deck to unwind. Highly recommend—thank you for a great stay!

Paradise Valley Acres

SimonRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We just spent 4 fabulous nights at Jessica and Jonathan's beautiful cabin. It was exactly as described and then some - very peaceful. The cabin was well equipped and the beds were very comfortable. We really appreciated the space and the sauna was exceptional, perched by the river. And only a short, 15 minutes drive from Squamish. Jessica and Jonathan were great hosts - very responsive and friendly. We would definitely stay there again and hopefully will.

3bed2bath Spacious modern pet friendly family home

JulianaRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Our staycation at Tylor’s house truly exceeded all expectations. HIGHLY recommend! Everything was perfect. Our favorite parts: the spacious backyard, the location to everything & the quiet/beautiful neighborhood with great views, the stunning kitchen that made you feel like a professional chef with all brand new appliances & stocked with everything you need to cook, the open concept of the very spacious/clean/new/luxurious bathrooms and bedrooms, the easy entry/exit whilst also feeling safe & homey, and last but not least- Tylor’s quick & consistent communication which felt like you were texting your friend. The ONLY 2 notes about Tylor’s home to just be aware of: the huge yard is not fully fenced in (but it IS already stated in the listing). 2 is the nice next door neighbors cat is curious (not mean) but will find it hanging in the backyard… just be aware of its potential presence so you or your pet doesn’t get alarmed/surprised. Overall 10/10.

Your guide to Squamish

All About Squamish

Located in British Columbia between Vancouver and Whistler, the coastal town of Squamish sits at the northern point of Howe Sound on the legendary Sea to Sky Highway (Highway 99 North). Named after the original inhabitants indigenous to the area, Squamish is surrounded by mountains, and the magnificent scenery regularly attracts TV and film crews. It also draws cyclists and hikers to its many trails, including the Squamish Estuary’s flat stretches, easily accessible from downtown. Take one of the trails high above the pristine waters of nearby Alice Lake, and you’ll be rewarded with magnificent views — and an up close look at the Stawamus Chief granite dome towering over the region, an area with spiritual importance to the Squamish people even today. For gorgeous panoramas without all the legwork, ride one of the local gondolas or visit the Spit at the mouth of the Squamish River to watch kiteboarders and windsurfers gliding across the water.

Within the town of Squamish, you’ll find a vibrant artist community of painters, potters, photographers, and musicians. The lively downtown is a collection of shops, cafes and restaurants, local breweries, and numerous galleries and street murals, including more than 20 pieces of street art that you can take in on the self-guided Mural Walk.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Squamish

Squamish has a humid climate and, as such, it experiences long periods of rainfall and a short, but dry, summer. The city is full of climbers, bikers, and other outdoor lovers from March through October. June to August are the warmest, driest months, allowing you the clearest skies to take in the awe-inspiring views. Consider booking Squamish cabins in late May or early September if you’d like the nice weather with fewer visitors. During wintertime, the area’s slopes and backcountry trails attract many skiers, snowboarders, and snowmobilers.


Top things to do in Squamish

Stawamus Chief

Stawamus Chief, an enormous cliff-faced granite rock, is very popular with rock climbers, as there are more than 300 climbing routes on the mountain available for those with the experience and correct safety gear. The hiking trails are steep here, but the views of Howe Sound and the Coast Mountains are spectacular.

Shannon Falls

Part of a provincial park just a mile from Squamish, Shannon Falls is the third highest waterfall in British Columbia at a little under 1,100 feet in height. The scenic falls have been captured by numerous film and television production companies and can be reached by ferry from Squamish via Darrell Bay or Woodfibre or by using the Sea to Sky Gondola. You can view the cascades from below or hike up the Sea to Summit Trail to the top.

Alice Lake Provincial Park

Alice Lake Provincial Park is a popular recreation area home to four freshwater lakes — Alice, Edith, Fawn, and Stump. You’ll also find DeBeck’s Hill, which provides stunning views of the Tantalus Range and Mount Garibaldi. The waterway is a convenient spot for swimmers from its two beaches. Multiple hiking trails crisscross the park for walkers and bikers, and the lakes provide ample opportunities for fishing and canoeing. Home to many mammal and bird species — the Brackendale bald eagle colony is adjacent to Alice Lake — there is also an abundance of marine life, including the black and orange box turtles and the iridescent rainbow trout.
