About the host

Hosted by Randy Geddes

Host profile image
Barb and myself reside in Nanaimo and love traveling, while crossing countries off our bucket list. As a newly retired firefighter, Barb thought it would be a unique experience to put me back to work, and together we dove into a full property renovation. We like a challenge, and now we’re thrilled to be hosting this oceanfront jewel, sharing a piece of Vancouver Island at your feet.

We’re proud to have achieved Premier Host status—a milestone that reflects the compliments and enthusiasm from guests thrilled with their stay. We can’t wait to learn, grow, and continue providing memorable experiences, welcoming returning guests for years to come.

Sincerely,
Randy & Barb
