Nancy was a fantastic host. The guest information pack she provided was great for helping us plan our trip and very insightful. The Whalehouse was definitely the highlight of our visit to Canada. The property was clean, well stocked and even better than it looks in the pictures. We would 100% stay here again whenever we visit Vancouver Island.

Wonderful ocean side experience
As part of our recent family retreat in Port McNeill, we stayed at The Whale House. A beautiful home right on the water facing Malcolm Island. Spacious open vistas, great meeting space on the deck to talk about the today’s events. Walks along the beach when the tide is out. All set deep in the woods. Absolutely wonderful.

Whale House experience
The Whale House gave us luxury and wilderness. We explored; we sat and looked at the sea; we ate fresh halibut and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
Our host, Nancy, could not have been nicer, offering advice and ideas as well as the lovely property to stay in.
Highly recommended. Thank you, Nancy, for a perfect stay.

Nancy welcomed us with 2 fresh fillets of halibut -thank you very much! House was well equipped and generously stocked with supplies and afforded fabulous views.we loved the hot tub and the pool table (many competitions were had) - no whales or bears but we loved seeing the deer , eagles and belted kingfishers ( and an uncommon common nighthawk!!) - best house we stayed in on. Vancouver island during our holiday -could have stayed forever!!

A Nature Wonderland
This beautiful, clean and comfortable home is the perfect place to enjoy an endless show of wildlife, changing tides, great views, and incredible sea life. It’s perfectly isolated from noise and light, but close to the many activities offered in the area. The host is very helpful and communicative, and the house has everything you need to enjoy crabbing, fishing, and relaxing in the jacuzzi while watching the resident eagle. The large and abundant windows provide views of the show wherever you are in the house. We stayed 5 nights and should have stayed longer.
We highly recommend!

Great Location
Nice location and well furnished but no Internet & TV reception which is a disadvantage. Only the master bedroom has on suite shower and the guests from second bedroom have to use on suite bathroom for shower, which is some what inconvenient.
Direction to the property needs to be improved and the lower level rooms and facility needs to be properly maintained.

Hi Gratain!
I’m happy to report that high speed internet is now available at my remote home. I’m reluctantly going to add it because some want/need it.
Before your stay you were emailed a welcome email with house address and access info. I’m sorry you didn’t realize that this packet was super important and contained vital info for your arrival access.
I’m not sure about maintaining downstairs properly??? Please advise as I’m unaware and confused cause you asked to return again. But most importantly please let me know what’s wrong in your mind cause I want it to be right for my next guests.
Thanks.

Many good reasons to come back!
We stayed 4 nights in the WhaleHouse at the end of August, it was beyond our expectations! Nancy was very thoughtful and responsive. I have never received an information package from other rentals as detailed and helpful as Nancy’s. The house was clean, tastefully decorated, the beds were comfortable and the water view was amazing. We saw bald eagles nesting on the tree out of the window, deers on the lawn, no whales and bears though. We will definitely return to WhaleHouse again when we visit the area next time - hopefully we will see the bears and whales then 😊. Thank you Nancy.

great place to recharge!
The house was beautiful and comfortable for my family of 7, which is not always easy to find. Our 5 kids range from 10-20 years old, and there was ample room for all of us. The beds and blankets were so comfortable, and many "little things" - were provided as well to make this an even more comfortable experience. This is a wonderful home to go to if you want to recharge and unplug for a bit! The Hot tub on the porch overlooking the water was just perfect. There is a lot of wildlife if your patient, we had sightings of bears down on the beach, deer, and lots of Bald eagles, I even saw it swoop down and fly away with a fish in its talons! There are tours nearby you can take for whale watching and sea otter tours, depending on your budget, but with our size family, we just took a few day- trips to beautiful locations, such as San Joseph Bay, and enjoyed a lot of family time, which was just what we wanted before some of my older kids are off for the upcoming school year. Not having wifi was amazing, as my teenagers (and my husband and I) didn't have the usual phone distractions, we spent more quality time actually being together and because of it. We truly enjoyed our stay.

Super Relaxing
This was the vacation our family needed. The property was well appointed. It was very comfortable and had everything to keep our family of 5 happy. We woke up everyday to a spectacular view. The biggest decision was whether to explore the North Island or just stay “home” and relax with book, take a walk on the beach, throw a frisbee with the kids or enjoy a soak in the hot tub. While we were there, the lowest tide was at 6:30 am on one day. We all got up to enjoy the sand that only appears at low tide. We were able to walk out a fair bit. It was super quiet. Everyday we were greeted by a pair of Eagles that loved to be perched on a tree viewable from the main windows. We went on hikes nearby and took a day trip to Alert Bay. There is no wifi, but we didn’t miss it. While there is cell coverage, it was spotty on my cell provider’s network. But since disconnecting from life back home was a high on our list of priorities, that was fine. Overall, we had a fabulous time at Nancy’s Whale House.

So much more than a house...I have no words...
While traveling through British Columbia and Alberta in August 2018, we visited several places, from Vancouver to Lake Louise and other stunningly beautiful places. We had saved the whale house for the end of our trip, as we hoped this would leave the best impression on our teenage children...I was a bit worried that it would not, somehow, completely meet our expectations. Boy was I wrong....First I must say that we preferred the atmosphere of the Northeastern coast of Vancouver Island to the Tofino/Ucluelet area, which is very beautiful but with a lot of visitors in August. Then driving from Nanaimo to Port Mc Neill is a pleasant road, with a few great places to see on the way if you have time. The house is easy to find, and although in a secluded environment, is only a few minutes drive from Port Mc Neill. Everything other visitors have written about the house is 100% true. And yes, we saw two bears and two cubs on the side of the road! ( everyone was thrilled!). And you know what, with such outstanding views, such a beautiful silence, such a healing nature all around, we saw our teenage children talk a lot to one another...We talked with each one of them too, on the beach, on hiking trails, while playing billiard in the basement...Family bonds were greatly strengthened in just 3 days.. Needless to say, the Mackay whale watching experiment is a must...Kept all its promises! One little tip. Bring eye masks since there are no curtains or window blinds to keep bedrooms in the dark in the morning. And finally one little anecdote: whenever we would leave a place during our trip, the "kids" would ask " when are we coming back?". And invariably my wife would reply..." Not anytime soon, there are many places to visit in the wide world, and we will visit another country next year!"....But as we left the house on the last day, on that gravel road back to Port Mc Neill, we all sat silent in the car....About to fly back to France the next day...My wife was the one to break the silence with the question we all had on hour mind, turning to me she said, " I would like to come back here. Really"

Thank you for your kind review. I am pleased that you found it to be as peaceful and wonderful as I do. I feel like it a little slice of Heaven on Earth. I would love to have your family back and would highly recommend you to other guests. :) I don't have any curtains in the master or the bedroom with the 2 single beds. The views are just too nice to block, in my opinion :) Your suggestion for eye masks is a great one. I always enjoy waking up to the sunrise, however others may not be the same as me. The 2 queen sized bedrooms downstairs do have curtains on them...just a fyi. Hope to see you again soon!! Cheers :)
