Temporary work in local area

Could not have hoped for a better place to stay a few weeks. Peaceful country setting with only the frogs, birds or horse to break the complete silence but less than :10 to town. Prepare to want to move here after your stay!

Beautiful, peaceful rural stay

The carriage house was very well appointed with all the amenities we needed for our stay. The hosts were wonderful, friendly and welcoming. Great views, nice trails for a ride/walk. Close enough to town to be convenient, far enough away to very very quiet and safe. We will be back!!

Perfect

Lovely place and lovely owners! This is truly a home away from home and not just a cliche. So much attention has been paid to detail, from design and cleanliness, to the touches of hospitality for enjoying a comfortable and relaxing stay. Caroline and Larry have thought of everything! We booked for almost seven weeks over the Christmas holidays to visit family and friends. It was easy to find, and we arrived just as a rare snowstorm hit and were so pleased with how welcoming and cozy the carriage house was. Our visit continued through a significant cold snap, another (bigger) snowstorm, an impressive ice storm…and oh yeah, a sudden available appointment for wisdom teeth removal. This place was such a great hideaway from the world during all that, and we stayed inside more than is our habit. (Something about the gas fireplace and those heated tile floors in the bathroom and kitchen nook…mmmm.) Can’t help but think of those holiday lyrics: “Oh, the weather outside is frightful…let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!” The owners are friendly, thoughtful and kind, responsive and very, very accommodating. They went out of their way to offer us things we might need or want—even the use of a Christmas tree. We followed their homemade guidebook and enjoyed walking at all the parks and trails suggested. The wifi worked superbly for all our heavy usage, and having laundry machines in the unit was really convenient with some of the odd hours in our schedule. We loved the outdoor holiday lights, too. The location in Langley horse country is quiet and peaceful, and we often heard owls and coyotes at night. Thank you for being so kind and for the great vacation stay!

I had a 4 wonderful days at the Otter Lane Carriage House, located in a peaceful country setting. The property is immaculate inside and out, very well equipped. Caroline was a pleasure from my first contact until the day I left. Caroline greeted me on arrival, I enjoyed a nice chat as I was leaving and loved meeting sweet Jazzy. Hated to leave, hope I have the opportunity to stay again. Thank you Caroline for a wonderful stay at your property.

About the host

Hosted by Caroline Plantz

Host profile image
We have lived in Langley all of our lives and moved to this property in 1997. It proved to be a wonderful place to raise our family and we continue to enjoy the quite serenity of the neighbourhood. My Husband and I both work in the construction industry so designing and building a carriage house was right up our alley. We have enjoyed Vacation Rentals and loved meeting people from across this continent as well as Europe.

Why they chose this property

We love the diversity of a hobby farm. The large Maple tree as well as the many cedar trees add to the calming serenity of the location ... and of course the year round pond. We love to watch the many birds that use our piece of Langley as their sanctuary.
