A quiet, private suite overlooking a quaint lake

*** May 2025 update: we are doing extensive upgrades to our suite and property in April through June (now almost complete!), including new furniture, memory foam sofa bed, large screen TV with surround, electric fireplace heating, fridge/freezer, induction stove, chairs, coffee station, new BBQ etc. ***

23 minutes from Victoria, 23 minutes from Sooke, Blue Sky Retreat is a quiet respite and rest for anyone wanting to get the best out of their stay at the southern end of Vancouver Island.

We have a suite available with a private living room, bedroom and private balcony with swing, gravity chairs, BBQ and your own private entrance, a kitchenette and private bathroom with shower. An additional guest can easily be accommodated on the memory foam full size sofa bed in the living room. We provide additional bedding (pillows, duvets, blankets) as required.

The kitchenette includes our own freshly roasted and ground coffee, assorted midnight snacks, teas, milk and bottled water. A countertop convection oven/toaster and microwave are also included. (The new kitchen in May 2025 will include dishwasher, induction stove, fridge/frezer, and OTR microwave.)

The front yard has a secluded glade surrounded by Arbutus and pine trees. Guests are welcome to use the facilities and relax around the fire pit in the warmer months. Please note that Spring cleanup of the garden occurs in April of each year.

The location is conveniently close to amenities, Lookout Lake Park, Olympic View Golf course, hiking, Galloping Goose Trail, about 8 minutes from the ocean with many off-leash beaches. Ask us about dog parks, beaches, hiking trails, and local sights to see.

We have two large dogs, a playful 6 year old Bernese mountain dog that loves everyone but gets momentarily very excited to meet new guests, and our new addition, a Berner pup that is still adjusting and is happily chewing up everything she can find.

We always bring them out to greet you upon first arrival so that they get to meet and know you.

If you are not comfortable being around dogs our location is probably not suitable. The suite downstairs has its own door closing it off from the rest of the house so no cats or dogs can stray in. We'd prefer that any guest dogs also not stray outside the suite or outside area.

No one under 24 please.
