This is a lovely property, if you think it might suit your needs, then it probably will so stop searching and book this one before it’s unavailable!!We stayed as a family (kids are 13 and 21) after my eldest spend a month at UBC on their summer programme. The fact that my eldest had the top floor to himself here was ideal. We were able to park easily nearby, and the SkyTrain is also only a short walk away for hassle free, low cost trips into the downtown area. There’s also an excellent kitchen, well equipped although Commercial Drive (aka “The Drive” locally) was only a walkable evening stroll away for meals out if we preferred…The beds were really comfy, the house is obviously lived/loved in, it’s extremely well maintained, everything is clearly labelled and therefore, finding things in the cupboards is easy to remember.In addition, the host is wonderfully responsive and helpful. We got a list of things to consider visiting and doing both locally, in the community and of course, in the wider Vancouver area which made our ten day stay from the UK one of the best trips we’ve ever had.It really helped knowing that we would be returning to this gem of a place each evening, in such a peaceful neighbourhood, to catch up on some well needed rest before our next adventure. The morning walks around the lake out back were wonderful too.In summary, this property is definitely deserving of its exceptional ratings.

Lovely home and great location

The host had everything written out from the start which made check in very simple and the place was absolutely amazing. If you ever have the chance to stay in vancouver please consider picking this home. The host was one of the most thoughtful and attending host that I have had the pleasure to talk with. If I ever need to stay in vancouver know that I will be picking this place again!

We were 2 couples and 2 kids staying at Sam’s place and had a wonderful experience. They have a beautifully designed home, everything in the home is labelled and clear, we slept really comfortably, the kids had a blast in the kids room with the swing and climbing wall, and the adults really enjoyed our hot tub in the evenings! Also, being around the corner from trout lake park was perfect with two young kids. We would definitely stay at Sam’s again!
