    We loved our stay at the Eagles Nest. It’s perfect for a two-some. Cozy and quaint. Lots of options for shopping and food near by. The bed is comfortable with plenty of pillows and blankets if needed. We enjoyed the ambiance at night with the lights from the bay.

      Carrie’s place is amazing, my whole experience was amazing. Her place is cozy, clean, well stocked and cutely decorated, so many Octopus! The bed was super comfortable. Carrie was able to work me into a whale watching trip that she manages and going out of Depot Bay is an experience every one should have! From eagles, baby seals and gorgeous views this is the place to go! I will definitely be back
