Priceless spot right on the water. Everything you might need is all there. So peaceful, private, and beautiful inside and out. Look no further, this is the place where you want to be. Central to so many things. Basically right in the middle between Nanaimo and Victoria with all the little wonderful places in between. We would stay here again in a heartbeat and we hope we have another chance to be back.Thank you so much to our hosts. Responded to inquiries very quickly. We were lucky enough to meet them. They were very welcoming and kind.

We could not be more satisfied with this property. Everything was as advertised and our stay was perfectly delightful. Communication was spot-on and the price is quite reasonable. My only complaint is our schedule didn't allow us to stay longer.

Wonderful accommodation just as described. Very well appointed and such a beautiful view. Watched an eagle fly by while I was having my morning coffee and harbor seals glided past while we were enjoying a glass of wine on the deck by the water. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks John!

Rooms were well designed and very clean - everything available for preparing meals. Good idea to bring groceries as nearest stores are in Crofton or Duncan (not far). Hosts were readily available and respectful of privacy. Very peaceful, otters and ducks in bay fun to watch. Lots of hiking and around the corner from marina with a great pub. Would stay here again.

What a beautiful place to stay and relax.I was nervous about the steps down to the suite especially at night as I have mobility issues but it was ok. The paths and stairs are well lit at night. The large window inside gave us a great view of the water and Salt Spring Island.We had a lovely time and we wouldn’t hesitate to return again.
