Excellent property, great location, wonderful hosts.
Stayed at Haddon House for my daughter’s wedding. The property provided a beautiful setting for photos before the wedding and a quiet, comfortable retreat after. We walked in Deer Lake Park every day which was an added bonus. The hosts were wonderful and helped make our daughter’s wedding very special. This truly felt like a home away from home.

A Historic Gem with Exceptional Hospitality
Our stay was absolutely fantastic! The property is an impressive historic building that has been meticulously cared for and beautifully remodeled. The neighborhood is full of grand, elegant homes, and we were just a short drive away from the SkyTrain station, making trips to and from downtown Vancouver a breeze. Our host greeted us with a lovely tour of the property and was incredibly attentive to all our questions and needs. They even provided a generous stock of breakfast foods for our first morning, which was a delightful touch. Overall, everything was perfect. I highly recommend this property!

Perfect!
This beautiful home was the perfect place for a group of old friends to gather for a week. The home is lovely inside and out and very comfortable. Owners provided all the amenities we could possibly need. Speaking of the owners, they were available whenever we needed them and so welcoming. The neighborhood is lovely as well. It was a very short walk to Deer Lake - walking trails, water lilies and high rises in the distance. We can't recommend Haddon House more highly!

Amazing hosts, and amazing property.
The owners and property made us feel welcome . They went the extra mile to help us book for over three days as VRBO had issues. These owners stuck with us until it was sorted. It even cost them 2 days of revenue because of the VRBO mishap. If you have a chance to stay here, please do. It is amazing.

Exceptional home!
From the day we checked in, everything about Haddon House was amazing. The owners were meticulous, not only in cleanliness, but instructions as well. We received a tour of the spaces, and every single area of the home was clearly labeled with incredible attention to detail. Our fridge was even stocked with essentials to get us through our first night. It is clear that the owners take pride in their home, and in creating a comfortable experience for guests. Close to major arteries, it was also the perfect location between Vancouver and other areas. We will definitely be staying here again!

My family and I recently stayed at Haddon House for the World Cup Soccer tournament in Vancouver. What a great find! The house was perfect, the location great, and the hosts were the BEST! They were very helpful and the house was well stocked when we arrived. That was great, since we didn't have to rush out to a store! We felt as though we were in our own homes!
