Good launching point
The Bedrock suite was a good landing spot to explore the sunshine coast. Kito, the owner was very kind/friendly, and the property manager/caretaker was also very nice and accommodating. For the price, the unit was spacious, bright, had nice views and adequate kitchen amenities for cooking, which was great! The property is unique and lively. As the lower level of a house, the unit was a touch loud at times and did not feel terribly private (windows overlooking a communal outdoor kitchen), parking is also quite tight, but overall was happy with our stay. The acreage dog was super sweet!
The property located couple kilometers away of HWY101. Really quiet and convenient location. Groceries 10-15 minutes drive. Provincial parks, beaches and point of views are in good shape. People are very friendly. However, without detailed maps tourists have difficulties to navigate, therefore GPS is really helpful.
Bottom line, we spent time wisely.

Perfect little getaway
We arrived at the property to find all that we needed. Karen was an absolute amazing host, quick to respond and also just checked in to make sure we were enjoying ourselves. The property is beautiful; we will be back!
The property is in a beautiful spot and the bedrock in the floor was a beautiful and interesting focal point on the plus side. If you had a mobility challenge it would be difficult as it is necessary to climb the rock in order to open and close the blinds and to reach the microwave oven.
We had all we needed (dishes, small fridge, an extra fridge available, microwave, toaster, toaster oven, no stove but two induction burners that were great and easy to use, candles and matches, towels and linens were all lovely) and it was clean and comfortable. A large oak table and chairs in the kitchen to eat at. The driveway was quite steep and parking a bit awkward but not terrible and the warm welcome from our host Karen and her two very friendly dogs was lovely. There was no TV hooked up but there was a monitor available that we hooked up to a loptop to downloaded and watch Netflix episodes. The seating area outside had a spectacular view looking out towards Halfmoon Bay but we did not use it because it was chilly in the evenings in late September. The radiant heat in the floor was really nice as it kept the concrete floor very comfortable underfoot. A cosy rug in the sitting area was nice as well. A cosy chair and throw blankets would be a great addition to the sitting space if you had more than two people occupying the space. We had only two people so each of us had a cosy place to sit and enjoy. Karen and Kito were wonderful, responsive hosts! Highly recommended.

Our son didn't want to leave
We thoroughly enjoyed the week we spent at Karen and Kito's VRBO. They were attentive hosts without being intrusive. They attended to our questions and needs as well as provided very comfortable accommodations. Our son really enjoyed playing with the dogs and the opportunity to roast marshmallows at the propane fire pit (during the fire ban). We are so glad we had the opportunity to enjoy our holiday at their property.

Very clean and comfortable stay!
The property and the owner were lovely. Very cute dogs. The suite was fully equipped and very tidy and the bed was super comfortable. If you have a car the location is perfect, if you’re on foot just be aware it’s not really walking distance to anything but we drove so everything was perfect and convenient :)
