Fantastic location! Easy walk to coffee, Blue Door Cafe, La Bottega Italian restaurant, Seasons grocery store, Saturday morning farmers market, and downtown shopping. Less than 5 minute drive to waterfront area with walking path and more restaurants/bars. Beds were comfortable too :) And kitchen was fully equipped.

This place was truly wonderful. There was plenty of room for 4 and 6 if you have kids that can stay upstairs. The beds were very comfortable, the shower was great, the kitchen was easy to cook in, and the location was fantastic. We took many 1-2 hour day trips to hike, bike and drink wine. There were several bars and restaurants in walking distance as well. The management team was very quick to answer any questions or to give support. I would definitely recommend this place.

Clean and great location
We loved the cleanliness and location of this home. We were a family of 5 adults and found the one bath to be challenging for us. However, we would stay here again, just not as five adults

Perfect location!
Just off Main Street. It was an easy walk to the riverfront, farmers market, grocery store and even Walgreens! Amazing variety of restaurants and shops all along the way. You could even walk to Fort Vancouver! Very cute and comfortable bungalow with a private backyard. It had everything needed for an extended stay. Highly recommended!

Short, sweet and comfortable
Just passing through and spent 2 nights in this comfy, cute home.i chose it based on location and i'm glad i did.
It suited our family just fine, even with 1 barhroom, which we decided would be enough. We just coordinated our getting ready for the day, carefully.
The home is well maintained for its age and has charm ad character, which was fun to see preserved, even with an updated kitchen and bath. I would stay here again.

One Night Comfortable stay
Our family checked in just for one night and morning before moving on I. Our travels, but this bungalow was clean, well equipped and a comfortable stay. We had 5 people in our family and with one bathroom there was a little bit of waiting but in terms of sleeping space the 3 bedrooms with spots plenty for 5 adults was a comfortable night of rest. And the kitchen was well stocked so we could prepare breakfast. Parking in the driveway past the gate in backyard made us feel better about our car rental. And check in and out was easy. Thanks for a great stay!

This property is wonderful. Each bedroom has blackout curtains and great noise insulation. The kitchen furnishings are new and complete for every cooking need. The linens and blankets are fresh and cozy. The driveway/off street parking is a great bonus. We walked to great coffee houses, restaurants and a bookstore. When we return to Vancouver, we'll be planning to stay here again!
