Great location and our granddaughter loved coming over to play pool. Discovered a bit about myself - while I love nesting and being cozy at home I need more light. Having said that we did sleep in without guilt as it was quiet and cozy.

Thanks again for coming, hope you return again someday. Regards Rae
From start to finish my stay was delightful. The suite is uber charming well appointed and beyond comfortable. The steam shower is to die for and the owner was most excellent. I will certainly be visiting my new friend Rae in the near future.

[9/10] Clean apartment. Great living area, very spacious, even with the pool table. Lovely design all around. Small kitchen area. The bathroom is awesome. All apliances working perfectly. Host is polite, and gave us some tips about the city.
Beautiful location and property! Host is a super-friendly awesome guy too.
There are neighbors beside the unit (detached) who offer homemade veggie and vegan meals for a nominal extra cost which I highly recommend, our was amazing!
I'd recommend reaching out to the host before arriving to get directions as the Google Map location is not accurate.
Very relaxing time, quiet and restful. So nice to sleep with peace and quiet as we are used to city noises. Yesterday was cool, as we stepped outside our door came face to face with a friendly deer.
Tough to find as need more specific driving directions to find location.

Thank you for your positive review. There were written directions to get here but maybe they’ve been removed somehow. I’ll need to check, as we’re not on google maps,
The deer are so friendly here. Host Rae

Thoroughly enjoyed our four night stay in this one-bedroom suite. Although technically in Gibsons, we felt like we were in the middle of the forest and more like in Roberts Creek - the grounds are peaceful and beautiful.
The unit was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen set-up contained enough equipment for creating and BBQing simple meals, including mini-fridge with small freezer compartment that worked to keep our ice packs frozen, a portable induction element, microwave, and toaster oven.
We enjoyed being able to watch our own shows from home in the evening on the big smart TV.
The queen bed was comfortable and the bedroom had plenty of plugs for charging our devices.
Loved the walk out to the patio and propane grill. Lovely to sit and listen to the birds with a glass of wine.
We recommend this accommodation and hope it will be available on our next trip to the Sunshine Coast.
