Such a great place to stay , The property and location were great , Easy access to town and local trails ,we have a nice relaxing stay and I would highly recommend
Everything you need, peaceful, great location, very clean and comfortable, deer and lush landscape. Great parking, easy access. Hosts very accessible and prompt with info.
The property location is perfect. We could hop on any walking trail - just through the back yard. We enjoyed the pot holes & witnessed salmon spawning just up the road. Getting to ‘town’ seemed just around the corner! (Vehicle is required- not walking distance to everything)
The hosts were helpful & responded quickly.
The guesthouse had everything we needed to enjoy a comfortable stay.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Laura and Steve were great hosts. The guesthouse was perfect for our needs. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen well equipped, and there's a lovely skylight in the bathroom. While in the area, we did the Peden Lakes Trail in Sooke Potholes Park and spent a number of hours at Butchart Gardens, a true Canadian national treasure if ever there was one. Pizza at Stoked Wood Fired Pizzeria is wonderful and breakfast at Shirley Delicious is outstanding. We'd love to come back some day.
We spent 4 nights here and everything was perfect! A quiet, peaceful setting, with direct access to the Galloping Goose Rail Trail. The grounds are lovely, beds are comfy, and the kitchen was well equipped. We found so much to do in Sooke besides the cycling.
Everything about our stay was excellent. The property and location were perfect. Would definitely recommend if you are looking for a place to stay in the Sooke area.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Peaceful and accessible to great hiking trails. The atmosphere was just what we were looking for, especially the evening campfire and the fire station tour.
It was very clean and comfortable with everything we needed. The hosts had bikes we could borrow to use on the Galloping Goose trail, which was a highlight. Close to walks in the Sooke Potholes regional park.
We love this location. Absolutely everything you need for a comfortable home away from home. Amazing access to the galloping goose trails. Fire pit is always a hit! We will be back!
The place was easy to locate and check in was seamless! Place was clean and neat and just what we needed for our little getaway. Love that we could also bring our dog!

A Wonderful experience. Quiet, comfortable and clean - falling asleep to crickets every night and listening to the Ravens as we wake. Our hosts were very friendly and attentive. Deer visiting in the early A.M. and nothing but beautiful green trees all around to look at in this tranquil setting. The Galloping Goose trail just outside the back yard is a cyclist's paradise - wide, flat and no hills but lots of nature on your adventures. Highly recommend!
