Great location and plenty of space! Super close to everything you need: Butchart Gardens, Butterfly Garden, shopping (grocery / market, pizza, coffee house, pharmacy, pub). A short drive to Victoria. Had fun playing pool. Lovely views from the back porch. Quick responses from host. Easy access to private off street parking. Quiet, friendly neighborhood. Only minor complaint, while the home’s temperature is reasonably maintained, climate controls are locked. With the mild spring weather, it fortunately wasn’t an issue for us. There is a contact phone number for temperature adjustments, so it’s good to know changes can be made for guests who might prefer warmer or cooler. Overall very happy with our stay.

Stay here for the view from the back deck alone! Peaceful place to enjoy your cup of coffee. Everything is labeled and easy to use. Great master bedroom with soaking tub and fireplace. Only a 30 minute drive to downtown Victoria, and within walking distance of Butchart Gardens.

It was a great location to into Victoria, the ferry terminal and the airport. We felt like we were in the middle.

The house is nice and fairly comfortable. There are a few too many instructions posted everywhere, but I understand wanting to help guests and protect property. Unfortunately, I don’t think he gave me the same protection and respect when we had a problem in the house. I’m also not sure why he can’t get sheets to fit the master bedroom. Apparently both issues were not new to the owner. Others complained before about the sheets, He switched ours out when i mentioned it when I wrote him about the flooding, but the new pair were only a little better, also coming off the mattress corners. The bigger issue was the flood of water from the shower pouring through the smoke alarm to the main floor. I slipped on the water, but fortunately did not fall. We wiped up the floor collected a gallon or two of water and put out a collection pot. I requested that the owner come and fix the problem when we’re leaving the house shortly. Instead, he came right over (guess he lives on the property), didn’t ask for me, and told my son and dtr in law “to monitor the problem.” Hearing this, I told him I thought it should be fixed, not monitored. He said that there was nothing he could do, but if it got “really bad, he could do something.” He said there were only a few drops in the pot, true, but I’d already emptied a large glass bowl and mopped up a gallon or more of water. After he left my dtr said he told her it’d happened before, but not for a while. I was not happy w this. IMHO it was really bad
