Springtime at Butchart Gardens

The property was as pictured, and in such a good location. The holdbacks on some areas of our experiece was that the bed in the middle bedroom was terribly uncomfortable, the towels were clean-the-car quality, and there were NO signs of life in the kitchen such as condiment packets or a kind note. We often stay in vacation rental homes, and these touches are inexpensive and matter. That said, we will certainly stay here again on future trips to the Island.

Fantastic home away from home

The location was perfect for us since we arrived by ferry from Vancouver. The beds were super comfortable (a must for me) and had we used the kitchen it had everything we could possibly have needed.

Really nice house

It was a great house and location to Butchart Gardens. There were a lot of instructions around the house, but as someone with a more complex house, i can see that the host tries to anticipate most problems that might arise.

Great Location

The place was great! My husband and I stayed here for four nights celebrating our honeymoon. It was the perfect location to see a lot. There’s a lot to do and see in Brentwood Bay if you’re the outdoorsy type, Sidney isn’t too far for additional great restaurants, easy day trip to Salt Spring Island and easy access to downtown Victoria. Would definitely recommend this central location if you plan to bop around to different parts of the island.

Refreshing retreat indeed

The house is nested in a quiet neighborhood, perfect for a retreat to the nature with family. It’s spacious for 5 people to stay, clean, simple, and nicely decorated, not tacky at all. The owner responded to our questions promptly. We enjoyed our stay at this house for 4 nights.

Overall, the house was fine. But here are a few suggestions: put hand towel holders in the bathrooms and provide more than 1 hand towel per bathroom; provide a box or two of kleenex; area rugs by the beds would be nice as the wood floors can be slippery; end tables by the sofa for putting coffee cups on would be nice; coasters for drinks. We enjoyed visiting Victoria and the surrounding area. We ventured out to many sites and had a great time.

Beautiful house, comfortable

We would stay here again, great house, lots of room. Beds really comfortable. Some oddities; sheets in master bedroom not the right size so they kept slipping off. Towels not out so had to hunt them down, including towels/wash cloth for kitchen.
