About this house rental

Guests are required to install and use the VRBO app on your phone to ensure you receive important messages from us before and during your stay.
Accommodating your Dog
We are dog-friendly! Just include that you’re travelling with a dog in the Booking Summary under “Travellers” and check “I am travelling with pets”. You can view the pet fee under “Price Details” at the Book Now screen, under “Host Fees”.
There is a private area down at the suite for your pet to use. (Please pick up after it!) We ask guests to keep their dog in the suite area and not roam freely up in the garden.
The kitchenette includes our own freshly roasted coffee, assorted midnight snacks, teas, milk and bottled water in the fridge/freezer. A countertop convection oven/toaster and microwave are also included.
The location is conveniently close to amenities, Lookout Lake Park, Olympic View Golf course, hiking, Galloping Goose Trail, and about 8 minutes from the ocean with many off-leash beaches.
Our Dogs are very friendly!
We share our home with two Bernese Mountain Dogs, Sophie and Teesha. They are very friendly, people-loving dogs and will be very excited to greet new guests. Give them a couple of minutes to quieten down when we come out to meet you on arrival.
For prospective guests that may not be comfortable around dogs, please let us know and we can try to find a way to accommodate you by keeping our pups inside at certain times. However, if any member of your party is frightened of dogs, our place may not be suitable to book.

It was a lovely evening and morning. Doug was extremely helpful in recommending a walk along the wharf last evening and a fun little place for breakfast this morning. The dogs are beauties and we had everything we needed from our arrival until we left this AM.

My lady and I loved staying here! Everything was very clean and the host was very helpful. His two big dogs were loud but very friendly. We had a private deck to ourselves with a swinging bench-chair that we could see a terrific view of the lake below and the hills beyond. Pretty much anything we wanted to drive to in Victoria was only about 30 minutes away.The parking was snug but doable, between the car and the room was a set of stairs that some might consider to be a bit steep.The owner provided coffee, milk and basic bathroom necessities.If I were to spend another night in the area, I would gladly spend it here again.

Location was initially a bit difficult to find but ok once located. Dogs on site are friendly but bark whenever entering or exiting. the suite was clean and well equipped for our stay.
