Property was exactly as described. Scott the host was helpful and gracious. The kitchen was a little small but perfect for our needs and the BBQ was an added bonus. Laundry was large and got our clothes cleaner than at home. Very quiet and relaxing beautiful sunset views.

These is a great spot and Scott is a great host!We were 6 adults travelling together we had enough beds andspace. The kitchen was well-equipped with all the thingswe could possibly need a great bbq. The deck was a niceplace to dine during the day (it gets a bit chilly at night onthe basin). The views - I cannot say enough! We had a rareorca siting, river otters, rabbits, birds of prey and a cute family of quails visited daily.We really enjoyed this spot!Thank you, Steph

Beautiful Spot

Lovely, clean home in a beautiful location on the Sooke Basin. So many sea stars, otters swimming by, and easy access to our favorite East Sooke hikes and nearby family. Cozy but well equipped kitchen, accommodating host, and comfortable beds. We enjoyed our 5-day stay.

We’ve stayed in many vacation rentals over the years, but this one was truly something special. We chose this beautiful place as part of our anniversary trip, and it ended up being one of the highlights of the entire vacation. The property and surroundings are absolutely stunning, peaceful, and even more beautiful in person.Scott was easily one of the best hosts we’ve ever had. He was incredibly kind, welcoming, accommodating, and full of great knowledge about the area. You can tell he genuinely cares about his guests and wants them to have a memorable stay.This is one of those places you hate to leave. We were already talking about coming back before our stay was even over, and this will definitely be a return trip for us.If you’re considering booking this property, do it. Don’t pass up this hidden gem. It helped make our anniversary trip incredibly memorable, and we can’t recommend it enough!

This place does not disappoint. Scott was very welcoming and always available to answer any questions. The rental is VERY well appointed. There is not a thing you can really think of that you would want. The views are from every room and are spectacular. Very much enjoyed our stay and will be back.

Beautiful, relaxing family getaway!

This property is comfortable and had everything we needed. The decor is gorgeous, the view cannot be beat, and the outdoor space is beyond compare. We enjoyed the beach at low tide— never have I seen so many sea stars in one place! The stay was enhanced by a swing by the water, great birdwatching, and an incredibly hospitable host upstairs who delivered fresh garden produce (and anything we needed) to the door mat. Thanks Scott!

Always amazing!

This was our second stay at this property and it never disappoints! Scott, the property manager is incredibly friendly, provides great directions, suggestions and gives a very thorough check in process. You won’t want for anything at this home and the view is spectacular. If you are on the fence, book it right now! We can’t recommend it enough.

Fantastic Family Time

Nature at it's best! We enjoyed our time here and would most definitely return. The listing is accurate as presented. Lovely peaceful mornings on the deck to start your days. Peaceful views. Super quiet and relaxing. Expect visits from deer, otters and other wildlife. Scott is a great host. The property is very clean and well equipped.

Winter stay

We were greeted by our great host, Scott. He took us through the property. Scott does live onsite, but in a completely separate part of the house.Scott is very accommodating and responds quickly to any requests.The views from the house, the deck and oceanside are spectacular! The yard is immaculately maintained and stunning!Would highly recommend this property!

Secluded Sooke Basin waterfront property, very spacious and well maintained with superb views of the basin and the mountains. Host was terrific to work with and had fresh flowers in many rooms when we arrived.The property had everything we needed for an eight day stay and host said to contact him if we needed anything before running to a store! It was great to have a nice washer and dryer, the beds and pillows were very comfortable, the gas grill was in excellent condition and clean! Large deck made preparing meals and dining outside a real pleasure. We were a family of three adults and three older children and everyone had space to move around without feeling crowded, both inside the property and outside on the grounds/decks.

We had an amazing stay in East Sooke. Location is absolutely perfect - private and serene. Accommodations were clean and tidy - well supplied with towels and supplies. The walk from the driveway to the entrance is quite steep, as is the walk to the water, but there are steps so it was manageable for me. Several great trails and walks in the area. There is a small grocery store fairly close by if you need to pick up supplies on the way in - otherwise the drive to Sooke is less than a half hour. The only negative was that one of the king beds is in the main living area with no privacy. It worked for us - may not work for others. All in all, a wonderful stay.

Wonderful Host ...Kitchen is ???

Scott is a wonderful host willing to do anything to make your stay enjoyable. My advice to anyone considering this rental is to be aware of the extremely small kitchen with no oven, disposal or dishwasher. I would also caution anyone with mobility issues as there are a lot of steps and a pretty steep unlit entry. The beds were very comfortable and other than the above mentioned items it is a very lovely home and a wonderful view. Very peaceful!

This is a fantastic place to stay on the Island. We were planning a trip to visit Victoria, but after viewing options in the city we fell in love with this ocean font retreat. It's worth the 40 minute drive to experience the cozy quiet away from the city. The house has everything you need to enjoy your stay. If you're worried about forgetting something in town there is a convenient small market just minutes away with two excellent food truck options and grocery staples. If that doesn't have what you need, Scott is an excellent host and was very accommodating in helping out with equipment and incidentals. I would recommend this place to anyone who loves nature and privacy.

Multi-generational family of five adults spent 4 wonderful days here! The views are incredible and we saw multiple sightings of otters and seals. The home is very comfortable and had everything we needed. Super clean and inviting. Checking in was easy and a very personal tour and explanation of all the particulars of the home was much appreciated. We all would definitely return for another visit.
