Such a lovely place to stay on Gabriola. Highly recommend to anyone wanting comfort and a lovely host. Very comfortable bed and had everything you could need.
There was a little porch with a table for two facing a quiet road. We enjoyed our stay. One suggestion for improvement would be to publish the address on the vbro website. Or, maybe we didn‘t see it.
Located in a beautiful quiet area of Gabriola. Check in was seamless and the property owner responsive. We will definitely choose this location again on future visits.

Thank you for coming. I am so happy that you have enjoyed your stay. Looking forward to having you again. Thank you for being a great guest.
This is a terrific option for a short stay on Gabriola. The room is smalm (as the listing clearly indicates) but has everything you need. Close the the village but secluded at the end of a cul de sac, with great views of sunsets over Strathcone Park if you stand on tiptoes! Very satisfied!

So glad that you have enjoyed your stay here. Hope to see you again.!
Chrissy was a great hostess! She answered all communication promptly and was very helpful with local information. She recommended restaurants to eat at and sites to see. We especially enjoyed our visit to the Malaspina Galleries to watch an incredible sunset. Thank you for that information. Thank you also, Chrissy, for your recommendation of dinner at the Surf Lodge restaurant where we were treated to a wonderful meal and an amazing ocean view that included a show put on by a pod of Orcas. We would definitely consider a return visit to this unit.

I’m so glad you enjoyed yourselves while you were here. This is an ideal Gabriola experience, Orcas are always a special experience and glad it made yours extra special. It was really nice to meet you and I hope to see you again.
This is a small unit but it completely met my needs and was very clean. The host was welcoming and very helpful. The location was perfect.

Unit very small ,do not think it would pass an electrical inspection, has a number of power bars.Can not use the bathroom sink without closing the door. Remote location.

Thank you for your review. To explain the power bars are there for your convenience and also to aid with power surges as Gabriola experiences more power outages than most other places due to the many trees as we live in a forest and the power lines are above ground. It is a 2 minute drive to our village centre and 3 minute drive to our ferry. Gabriola is indeed a rural community which is why most people visit here.
The room is equipped with many day to day amenities for your convenience and with that comes limitations for power as each small appliance would require its own breaker and plug as actual kitchens do hence the precautions of using one small appliance at a time as this is a bedroom and not a full home with a kitchen. This is a bedroom with added amenities and luxuries at a lower price point due to its smaller size. Perhaps as advertised my bigger suite would be better suited for you as it has a kitchenette with all the amenities including dishwasher.
