Wonderful Stay at Peaceful Heritage Home!!!

This was my first VRBO stay and first in Victoria , BC, and it was delightful. The location was excellent and close to parks and walks for my dog and very close to Butchart Gardens--my favorite place. The owners Jacky and Mike were so helpful with local information and directions and made us feel at home right away. My Irish Setter Shannon fell in love with both of them. Wish we could have stayed longer

A piece of paradise

Our stay was wonderful. It was exactly as pictured. The location was great for seeing all that Victoria had to offer. The bed was big and soft and I didn’t want to to get up in the morning. Water was always hot and the pressure wonderful. The yard was all ours and perfect for our dog. Plus a private patio right outside our door. The unit was ground floor but always very quiet. But the real jewel in the crown is the host Jackie. She could give lessons in hosting. I was talking to her about watching people crabing off the pier in Sydney, and wanting to try ot ourselves. She contacted a friend and we had a crab trap the same day. Always ready to suggest great restaurants and things to do. Looking forward to staying again.

Race weekend

We needed somewhere close to Elk Lake for my husband's triathlon race. This was perfect! It was so close to everything and everywhere we needed ti be plus it provided us the privacy we like. It was so quiet - it was great! The property manager is great! She gave great information on what was within the surrounding area especially food wise. Will highly recommend this location to family and friends!

Second Time was lovely as the First!

I am visiting my daughters each month from North Vancouver. This is my second stay at Jacky’s place. The place is always spotless, linens are soft and the pillows are comfy. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes and great appliances. Generous sized bedroom and bathroom. I work when I stay, appreciate the strong wifi and desk area. Loads of parking, nice outdoor space with BBQ and the enclosed park like backyard is beautiful for some sunshine and playing with my dog Holly! Thanks Jacky

Magical & Relaxing to come home after a busy day.

Everything myself and my fur baby Holly needed. From the beautiful bathroom, everything I needed in the kitchen, great wifi for working and a GREAT night’s sleep. Great mattress and linens. Jacky you are a great host and loves our chats. The Clover Garden just for me and my Holly was so magical! Found my first 4 leaf clover. You have a beautiful property and I certainly recommend this rental. Great location and lots of parking:) I will be back soon Jacky!!

Winter Getaway

We had a wonderful time in Victoria and found the suite very suitable for our needs. We have children and grandchildren in Victoria .The accommodation has handy for visiting them during the day and exploring around the area from and for returning home to at night. Jacky and Mike are great hosts. Nothing is too much trouble, pleasant , friendly and accomodating. Thanks for the complimentary Indian dinner delivered to our door.

Wonderful experience

This is a lovely little place in a great location. Great value for what you pay. The hosts are helpful but not intrusive and were very kind to me and my dog. I though this was a great location for somebody visiting. You are minutes away from some of the best hiking and ocean beaches. If you have a dog you are 5 minutes from some of the best dog beaches ever. I would stay here again no issues. And its true what the other guests say about the bedroom....best sleeps ever!!

Cozy retreat for your West Coast stay

Jacky was a wonderful hostess- even going to far as to call us to advise for ferry reservations so our trip would go smoothly. Many charming, above and beyond touches for our stay: bagels, coffee and tea ready for our arrival and stay, lovely scented hand soap, cozy bedding, umbrellas for the rain, even a dog blanket for our small dog! The suite is cozy and SUPER clean. Very private and quiet - even though it’s in a busy road, you do not hear traffic at all. We appreciated having a fenced area for our dog as well. My only suggestion for anyone staying with a dog is to bring a flashlight for night time trips to the fenced area as the driveway is very dark at night (but easily overcome if you have a flashlight or mobile phone!) The unit has everything you need to have a comfortable stay, and Jacky is a great communicator. Thank you so much, we will be back

Something Special!

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this unique property….and were lucky enough to add an extra day to our reservation! Jacky is an attentive, helpful, friendly and generous host. The property is as described, cozy and nicely equipped. Of note, the bed is comfortable, the shower is hot, and the coffee is delicious! The outdoor seating is pleasant, and the 10km lakeside trail just across the roadway is convenient and lovely for a stroll or run.

The extra care was great!

I felt pampered as Jacky had freshly ground coffee and fresh cream on hand and had a bagel ready for my breakfast. She checked in with me to see how my 3 day stay was going and brought me a hot fresh samosa on the second day. She also pointed out the local beach which was only minutes away. This place was exceptionally clean and very well equipped. I would definitely stay here again,.

A quaint home away from home

The property was quaint, with a separate outdoor sitting area attached to the interior space, and another huge zen garden sitting area as well. The hostess was very nice and went out of her way to allow for our privacy but was there to answer any questions. Jacky brought us a lovely surprise from a local restaurant one evening. There was some highway noise because the property was right off of Patricia Bay Highway, but no noise could be heard from inside the suite. Besides the traffic that was out of the owner's control the property was wonderful and a 10 out of 10.
