About this house rental

Nestled in Southern Gulf Islands, this charming house for $372 per night is a great choice for your next trip. Our home is just outside Victoria, conveniently located between Victoria and Sidney, and close to the Victoria International Airport, BC Ferries at Swartz Bay and Washington State Ferries to Anacortes, Washington. We are on a peninsula which is semi-rural, in the midst of farmland, small villages, beaches and mountains. We are surrounded by lush flower gardens and hummingbirds almost year round. Fresh fruit and produce are plentiful from many gardens. One full level of our home plus a bedroom downstairs is included and includes a king bedroom, and 2 queen bedrooms, sunroom/office/double bedroom, new bathroom with all toiletries provided, kitchen/dining room equipped with all cooking supplies to meet your cooking needs plus coffee pot and coffee, a large living/TV room with cable TV and WIFI. A barbecue grill is available on a large deck as well. New tennis courts with lights for evening play are two doors down, plus playground and forest hiking trails are just down the street. Bus stops are just across the street which connect us to all Victoria and area destinations in minutes, so a car is not a true necessity. If driving, Butchart Gardens is 5 minutes away, the airport and Sidney (with Washington State Ferries to Anacortes Washington) 10 minutes, BC Ferries at Swartz Bay 15 minutes and Victoria 20 minutes to downtown. Mountain trails and beaches on both sides of the peninsula are 5 to 10 minutes. Bike paths are accessible which connect us easily to both Sidney and Victoria. The best kayaking is available just 5 minutes away in Brentwood Bay on Saanich Inlet and Todd Inlet, where you'll likely find starfish just under the surface, also a destination scuba spot nearby. Panorama Recreation Center is 5 minutes away for everything from hockey, gym and racquet sports to pools and waterslides. We welcome you to our home and know that you will be comfortable here.

An adorable home. Boys really like the character of it and one really enjoyed the piano, trying to learn. The home was very comfortable and homey, quite liked our stay. Thank you Frankie, so enjoyed meeting you.

We stayed 3 nights while sightseeing in and around Victoria. Very accommodating host to us and her gardens and plants are spectacular! Clean and roomy home with all the things you need while traveling. We all noticed how comfortable the beds are! Easy to get to with shops and coffee nearby. Lovely stay. Thanks Frankie!

A wonderful home to stay in. Clean and comfortable, a home away from home. Beautiful decor and gardens. Very close and convenient to many amenities. Would recommend to others.

Frankie's place is unlike most vacation rentals because it feels like home. Super comfortable, bright, spacious and lacks for nothing. The one item it lacked was on our doorstep immediately. The gardens are spectacular and it was great watching the wildlife from hummingbirds to salamanders. Definitely a return visit on the calendar.

We loved our stay in Sanichton. Frankie is an excellent hostess and we loved her cozy home and all the special touches. The beds are so comfortable and we would highly recommend.

Both Frankie and her home made a get away with my Mom and sisters all the more special. The house was very homey, clean and comfortable and well stocked. Frankie went above and beyond with fresh cut flowers from her garden adorning the house and brought us doughnuts from a near by specialty bakery. She was very welcoming and personable. Would for sure book her house again the next time I'm in the area..
