Lovely little place to stay. It's clean and well presented. Has everything you need for a really enjoyable stay. It's close enough to Victoria to enjoy the city.
It situated in a lovely area with great walks and you can even watch a seal playing in the water over the road from the property.
We would recommend this place to anyone.

We had a lovely stay in this beautiful apartment. It was convenient to the Butchart Gardens as well as the downtown restaurants and the harbor. We were able to safely (With a brand-new pedestrian crossing) walk just across the street to a nice park with a pretty sunset over the water, and also, on the host’s recommendation, to a great Greek/Italian restaurant. We found the place clean, comfortable, and convenient, and the hosts were extremely helpful throughout the process and the stay. Definitely recommend and would love to stay there again!

We were in town for a tournament and the team was staying at the Vic hotel just down the road. This apartment was almost half the price but was much nicer, quieter, more spacious, more convenient, and more comfortable. The unit is super clean and has everything you need. Owners were very friendly and communication was great. Highly recommend and would stay again.

My family and I stayed in their basement suite for a couple of days and we were very happy with the place. Comfortable and cozy, you have all the amenities you need and the beds were comfortable as well. Location is quiet, in front of a nice promenade for walks or biking, and you are just a short ride to downtown Victoria!

Very clean and comfortable place. Really well stocked for all your needs and the owner is very nice and responsive. He provided helpful information for check in, tips about the neighbourhood and kept us up to date on road work taking place. It’s in a beautiful spot just across the road from the Gorge with a lovely walking path. Close to everything. Highly recommend staying here.

Gord and Kelea’s place was perfectly located - close to everything we wanted to do and see as a young family of four and quiet enough for us to feel like it was a restful retreat. Loved having the gorge waterway just across the street! The space was clean and comfortable, and they were gracious and kind hosts. Would recommend :)

This was the perfect spot for our 4 days in the Victoria area - it was away from the busyness of downtown, but an easy drive to all the places we wanted to visit. The place is as advertised - a cosy daylight basement apartment, with plenty of room for the two of us and all our gear. The beds and couch were very comfortable, and the kitchen provided all the basics for eating in. Thank you, Gord, for sharing your home and being so welcoming!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! It's hard to beat this location for the scenery, amenities, and ease of getting around the greater Victoria area. The unit was impeccably clean and comfortable. Gord is a great host and very accommodating. I would highly recommend this property!

We were on a three week escape from eastern Canadian winter. This apartment was comfortable. Well situated on the Gorge waterway, literyacross thé street. Gotd was a great host, very helpful and accommodating. The property is close to downtown Victoria by car. Very easy to get on the highway headed up towards Nanaimo.
We would absolutely stay again.

5.0
I very much appreciated the property, the cleanliness and location were as hoped for. Additionally, the communication was the best I’ve had with a vacation rental, as Gord helped me with restaurants and destinations to visit during our trip, all of which proved helpful and on point. He was gracious in greeting us, and made extra effort to wish us well as we left. Overall a very enjoyable stay.

This vrbo is an excellent place to stay in Victoria and Gord and Kel make sure everything is perfect for your arrival. This is one to remember when a visit to Victoria is in the future.

I had a short stay but everything worked out great and the place was better than a hotel stay with more amenities. Gord was very communicative before our arrival. I'll be back in the future.

Very clean, well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds with high quality linens. Lovely park and view of the water just across the road. In the future, I definitely would book this property again but I would bring my own transportation across on the ferry.

Everything went smoothly. The owners were very nice & professional. Key arrangement was great.
Pictures of place very accurate. Our 11yr old grand daughter loved her room so much that we had a hard time getting her out to take in other activities.
Our bed in master bedroom was so incredibly comfortable.
The place was clean and equipped with everything you needed, beyond measure.
We would definitely recommend this place & would love to stay there again on a future trip
We recommended it to family who live north of Courtney. They too plan to stay there sometime.
The location was incredible. Waking path just across the street ,along side the water in the Gorge area. You could walk about a block to the bridge & walk under the bridge to see where the current changes direction. Just a great stay, & a very beautiful location. Grocery store & gas station were just east a few blocks to the first lights, on the opposite side of intersection.
Highly Recommended !

Gord and Kelea 's rental across from the Gorge is wonderful in every way. The location was perfect for accessing all things Victoria either by walking, car or bus. The unit itself is immaculate, spacious and comfortable. Gord is a gracious host who is so welcoming and quick to offer information and tips about the local area. We look forward to future visits.

Beautiful home in a setting across the street from The Gorge, a long wide sea born body for kayak, canoe, bird watching, bench sitting. Apt was perfect is all ways. Driving around, plenty to see, places to eat (take-in) with Victoria 10 mins away. WE WILL BE BACK. Thank you Gord.

Great location, very well equipped, spotlessly clean and a really good bed. Good communication from Gord. Would totally recommend this as somewhere to stay close to Victoria.
What’s not to like!

Nice space in a quiet residential neighborhood just across from the Gorge Park walking path. The property is clean and spacious with all of the items you will need. The owner who lives upstairs is very friendly and welcoming, was a great host. Very close to downtown Victoria, not quite walking distance but an easy drive to the historic waterfront.
I would highly recommend the property for anyone who has never been to Victoria or if you are returning for another visit. I was not familiar with this part of town and am really happy that we chose to stay here. I will definitely stay again on my next trip to Victoria!

Good for the money, close to downtown and the harbour.
5.0
Quiet, bright and spacious with large windows to let the sun in. Great for a family or two couples, with lots of room and a full kitchen. It has a beautiful view of the gorge and you just have to walk across the street to access the gorge.
Gord is a wonderful and friendly host who respects your privacy but is available if you need anything. Thank you!
