A wonderful location and accommodation. The facilities were perfect and well equipped for a comfortable and relaxing stay, which we thoroughly enjoyed.
We spent a week on Gabriola Island for a family reunion and Chrissy's place worked beautifully for us. It was exactly as advertised and Chrissy was a wonderful host.

I’m so glad you enjoyed yourselves. Thank you so much for coming and please do come again.
One of the nicest and well maintained homes I've booked! Good location, super clean, comfortable, and quiet. Loved the artwork and the thoughtful brochures left in the room. Perfect if you're looking for a peaceful getaway. This was our first time on beautiful Gabriola and we would definitely recommend Chrissy's place to anyone : )
We enjoyed our stay. The location was close enough to explore the island. Plenty of towels, blankets, and dishes. The hot tub and included breakfast were excellent.
Mid-week stay for 3 adults in suite 2. Great location in a quiet neighborhood. Breakfast was really tasty and the layout worked perfectly for us. Thanks for a great visit!
This suite was exactly as described and fit the bill for our overnight trip (my friend and I). We only wished we had been able to book more nights.
We will definitely book again!
