The place is good for groups or family since it has 3 bedrooms and 2 washrooms. It’s a big space . Although it needs a car since the place is far from victoria downtown, butchart garden etc but over all it’s really a good place to stay. It’s affordable and you save money for food since you can cook your breakfast and dinner.

Was surprised we had to wash towels before we checked out, and remove all garbage. However, that wasn't a problem because we felt it was very good value for the price paid. We would rent again.

Excellent location, spacious home. Good appliances and laundry room. Beautiful view of the ocean. Lovely property. The house sleeps 6 comfortably but a long narrow table only had three chairs. There was no TV which was surprising and only two chairs for sitting out on the deck . Limited seating in the living room and very sparsely decorated dining and family rooms. Living room sofa was very lumpy and uncomfortable.
