The best recommendations come from our own guests, and they have written...
"Outstanding unit! We were one of the first people to rent this and we were completely blown away. Everything is BEAUTIFUL and the spot is perfect for going to Victoria, Nanaimo, etc. They leave a wonderful guest directory with lots of great information and really put some nice little details in. We will definitely be staying again, hopefully soon!"
-David & Vashti, Vancouver, BC
"This has to be the Best priced suite in all of Bear Mountain - if not Victoria! We were lucky to find it, and would recommend it to anyone traveling to Victoria or Vancouver Island!"
- Pam and John, Arizona, USA
Your brand new, 10 ft ceiling, granite, and stainless steel applianced, 1 Bedroom / Bachelor suite is located in the Heart of the Village of Bear Mountain Golf and Country Club Mountain Resort. It is a luxurious, yet comfortable suite that overlooks the 3rd Fairway, and the Village of Bear Mountain.
The 36-hole Bear Mountain Golf Course is co-designed by Jack Nicklaus and his son Steve. There are in fact two courses... The "Mountain Course" and the "Valley Course". They are both set in the foothills of Mount Finlayson and strike the perfect balance between playability and a year round golf experience for golfers of all skill levels. With panoramic mountain, city and ocean views and located only 10-12 minutes from downtown Victoria... You'll fall in love with this world-renowned Golf Course and Village Resort.
Bear Mountain has recently opened the "Valley Course"... A second Nicklaus-designed 18-hole championship golf course which offers the same world class facilities as the first 18-hole Mountain Course. The new Valley course is a par 71, reaching 7,000 yards from the championship tees, and makes Bear Mountain the first 36-hole Nicklaus designed golf resort in Canada!
And for those guests who would rather explore than putt... There are many opportunities just minutes away from your own front door to explore, go antiquing, rest & relax at the Westin Resort Spa where the "Full Body Massage" is to-die-for; or you can venture off to Jack's (Nicklaus) Pub & Restaurant for some of the best wings in town. Or you can catch the Trolley during the summer months and venture down the hill where all the box stores are - From Winners and Home Depot, to Costco, Wal-Mart, and the Brick. Plus lots of restaurants, and gift stores to browse through.
And all of this is just steps away from your front door...
Your home-away-from-home includes 10 ft ceilings; Granite, Tile, and Rich Chestnut colored Laminant throughout; Stainless Steel Appliances; In-Suite Laundry; and a gas Fireplace.
This is a brand-new suite that is professionally designed and decorated and includes a private bedroom area with a Queen-sized Sealy Mattress that has additional memory foam added to increase the height and comfort of your bed. The 600 - 1000 thread-count sheets and non-allergenic down-comforter will also ensure that you have a restful nights sleep.
While enjoying your breakfast from your private balcony, you can watch the golfers on the 3rd fairway pass by your top floor suite. Or you can look further down to see all the activities at the Golf Course Club House and local Town Market (due to be complete 2009) The fully-equipped kitchen features a large granite preparation area. This suite is compact and elegantly designed.
The comfortable living room is tastefully decorated with new leather furnishings; a gas fireplace; a 36" flat screen wall mount TV; quality stereo with CD, tuner, and iPod/MP3 connections.
The bathroom has Tile and Granite throughout, with a contoured tub and shower unit.
This luxurious condominium offers the traveler a truly unique experience when visiting Vancouver Island... You can venture up island for the day and go caving at Horne Lake, or whale-watching a 1/2 hour away in Sooke, or spend your vacation on the Mountain in the "Whistler-like" Village, or even drive downtown and go antique shopping or beach combing in Victoria.
Whatever you choose, you know that your stay with us will be an enjoyable one... Please view our calendar below and book early to ensure your quality stay in Bear Mountain.
If you have a large or small group coming to the Island, please contact us for further information at one of the phone numbers below, and we'll be glad to help you in any way we can... (Between the 3 suites, we can accommodate up to 14 guests)

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2007
Frank and Carrie live in Edmonton, AB Canada, and purchased their suites in Bear Mountain during the initial construction stages back in 2006.
The partners have been sharing their suites with guests from VRBO ever since the completion of construction back in 2008.
Why the Owner Chose Victoria
Carrie was brought up on Vancouver Island and encouraged Frank to look at creating a home away from home... With both of them being avid golfers, and Bear Mountain being ranked as one of the best (36 hole) courses in Canada, it was an easy decision on where to purchase. Not to mention the Resort is ideally located with quick and easy access to downtown Victoria, the Highlands, Sooke, and the upper Island destinations.
The Unique Benefits of this Condominium
The Resort is similar to Whistler in that you feel like you are in an Alpine resort with all the Luxurious amenities, yet you are also a 12 minute drive into Victoria BC with all of it's tourist attractions and famous landmarks. The Highlands (where Bear Mountain is located) has been fully developed with all of the large Box Stores like, Costco, Walmart, Home Depot, etc... It's just an ideal place to relax, breathe the mountain and ocean air, and even shop or go on tours by day, and enjoy the restaurants and nightlife by night... Or if you'd rather you can stay in at night, and light up the BBQ (and fireplace) and enjoy the view of the heart of the village, with a nice meal, while lounging out on your large balcony. It's all good!
