Beautiful Home!
My wife and I really enjoyed our stay. The views from both levels of the Gorge are amazing. The home was very clean and well looked after, very spacious and there is lots of natural light due to the large windows at the back of the house on both levels. Nice back yard.

The views from this property are exceptional. The property itself is huge and resourced with everything you could possibly need.

Really enjoyed our stay here. Caroline is an excellent host and you can tell she cares about her guests. The place was very well equipped. Beautiful views. Should note there is a bit of noise from the nearby highway when outside, but really did not bother us. Very happy overall with the stay!

Best place I’ve ever stayed!
Pictures don’t do this justice. This house is fantastic! The views of the inlet are amazing. The windows are huge and you can see water from basically the whole house. The smaller bedroom is still quite large and comfortable. Our toddler slept on a cot on the floor in there and we were still able to walk around him. The upstairs room is enormous. Both bathrooms were very nice. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. The sheets, towels, robes, were all very soft and cozy. This really is the best place we’ve ever stayed. I can’t think of a single thing I’d change.

We had a wonderful time in Caroline 's house. She is a very nice and helpful host. We very much enjoyed the garden and the view to the ocean. Near to the house, there was a bus station so we could visit Victoria very easily. All in all, we loved our stay in this house.

Peaceful and relaxing
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this extremely well equipped home. The kitchen had everything you could need and the cut flowers from the owner’s garden throughout the house were a nice touch.The views of the inlet were just beautiful. We so enjoyed relaxing there after our trips into Victoria and between visits to Olympic NP and Mt Ranier NP. While in the area, Butchart Gardens is a must see.

Victoria conference/vacation
Beautiful property with a beautiful garden and wonderful views of the water. The home is clean, quiet and comfortable with everything necessary for our stay. The location is about 20 minutes from downtown so close enough to activities and restaurants with the benefit of being removed from the noise and crowds when we wanted to be. I can’t imagine anyone being disappointed with a stay at this property.

Why they chose this property

We bought this property for the view and waterfront. It was an old renovated cottage with minimal garden. We have transformed it into a delightful garden with an amazing new home designed and built by my son Trevor. You will find the setting peaceful and relaxing with access to all amenities within minutes. We welcome pets with sleeping kennels and responsible owners.
