Great Family stay

We stayed at this location as our younger Son was getting married. It was a fantastic location to the venue and had a great option for sleeping our older son and his family. Lots of room for everyone. The young family had their own wing of the house. My husband and I slept in the basement room and the groom got the pull out sofa in the family room. Would recommend this home for any stay in the area.

There were 6 of us that stayed in this home, including a toddler. The house is spacious and gave everyone plenty of communal visiting areas, while also providing everyone with their own space. We appreciated the travel crib and high chair being available for guests so we didn’t have to bring those items on the plane. There were games, puzzles, and books provided for entertainment, as well as access to the beautiful front yard. Kyle was a great host and was very quick to answer messages and provide assistance. As other guests have mentioned in reviews, there are a few sets of 2-3 stairs as well as the stairs to the basement. It was manageable for our 2 year old but may be tricky for younger children or people with mobility issues.
A robin’s nest we could see from right outside the living room window!

Peace and Quiet and Lovely

What a lovely place to spend a few days! We had four people in this spacious house that easily accommodated all of us. It is a few minutes from Victoria proper, but the beautiful surroundings and quiet location made it seem like the perfect place to kick back and enjoy ourselves. It also had the advantage of being half-way between Victoria and Butchart Gardens.

Beautiful Stay

Accommodation was perfect for our group of 7. Plenty of space in the newly renovated house on a beautiful property. Private location with a tree lined driveway makes for a quiet getaway. Being close to the lake was a bonus. Easy access to the hwy to get us to our other destinations made our stay very convenient. Host was very responsive to all my questions.

Size of house for my parents and two sisters was perfect. Had everything we needed and more. It does have a few different levels divided by a couple of stairs here and there which may not be great if you have toddlers or folks with mobility issues. But it was great for us and visiting family and friends from the area for a family wedding. Owners were terrific!

Clean but Sparse

The property itself was easy to find and in a good location. It was very clean upon check-in. There was a ton of space that could have been better utilized with king-size beds or additional furniture that would have made it a little more comfortable and functional.
