We stayed in the cabin so had the quiet but also full access to the house. We don't often stay in backpapers and this was one of the best.

One of the best hostels I have ever stayed at - friendly, clean, comfortable and full of great information about what the area offers - and it offers a lot! Robert's Creek is a cute little artistic town with cool drift wood benches and a giant community mandala they paint every year. Cliff Gilker park is a hidden gem with easy trails and an awesome rainforest experience - magical!

The friendly atmosphere and kindness of the staff who did everything possible to make my stay memorable. It felt like a home away from home—an excellent base for exploring the surrounding areas whether by car or foot. Public transport from Vancouver and around Sunshine Coast is excellent and affordable. I had a marvellous time and would have liked to stay longer than the four days I was there. I hope one day I will be back. "Up the Creek" will be top of my list to stay, relax and explore—a big thank you to Martin and Halli for the little personal touches.

My friend and I had a wonderfully relaxing and quiet time at Up the Creek. We were the only ones there for two days, so we picked a great time to go! They have a fully kitted kitchen with everything avaialble to cook up your meals. We took all our own food so our two days away from the city was super inexpensive. We spent time relaxing by the fire, knitting and reading, or out walking the local area. This place is very clean. 7 minute walk (downhill) to the ocean front (bit of an incline to walk back). And Martin is a great host!

We had to keep the window shut as mosquitoes were coming in and there wasn’t a screen. So we were pretty hot The bed was rock hard. The rest was great so much thought has gone into the place and it’s so nicely done. So homey.

An interesting stay for us. I normally wouldn’t stay in a hostel style hotel, but we needed a place somewhat last minute in a pretty specific area and this place popped up. They had a private cabin that shared the main house kitchen and bathrooms so we snagged it. It was a super lovely property! The cabin was indeed tiny but cozy is how I would describe it. The surrounding property is green and lush and doesn’t feel like it’s a block down off the main road. The owner/manager is also friendly and helpful. The main house is spacious and set up well for sharing lounge space. My only gripe, and I can barely even call it that, is that the guest kitchen could have used a sharp knife and a new non stick frying pan. I’m fussy in the kitchen and if I was staying more than a night or two would want to cook a lot more and like to have good tools. Overall the place was fantastic. We’d definitely stay again if in the area.
