Reviewer Comments: We rented this beautiful home for an all adult family reunion. Loved having the "granny flat" available for privacy. The views were exceptional, and we loved having the large yard and fabulous long dock to ourselves. Because we enjoy meals together, they arranged a 7-person setup for dining that worked well for us. We observed several families of river otters, a pair of bald eagles, and a harbor seal in the bay. Wishes: more than one set of towels per person and a large salad bowl. Leaving the driveway to turn onto Sooke Road was always a challenge because of the vehicles that can come along too fast. If the county would install mirrors that would help. Great memories of the home and area! ##### Sara G.

The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This home is exactly as described in other reviews & photos (it was perfect for our group). Beautiful (bay & ocean) views, spacious rooms, "comfortable" beds, private beach, dock & gazebo all on a large private lot (you don't see your neighbors). Minutes to the most amazing hiking trails (East Sooke Regional Park). An older home but, well maintained. NOTE: This is in a rural area (about 10-15 minute winding road to get there and a steep driveway) but, worth it. Closest town is Sooke, about 20-25 minutes...Victoria is about 50 minutes. Butchart Gardens about an hour. Sooke is a great little town offering many amenities; restaurants, tours (Kayak, Whale watching) etc. Best vacation! ##### Dodie H.

Reviewer Comments: We spent a week at your property from 24 June 2022 to 02 July 2022. The house is located in a wonderful position surrounded by trees and very close to the sea front. However, when we arrived we found:• The house not properly cleaned.• One of the toilets would not flush and the toilet bowl was smeared with faeces.• Dead flies and other debris scattered around.• The fireplace was not cleaned and had the remains of the previous fire.• General maintenance not done, for example: Towel rails coming away from the walls, bad fitting draw in the kitchen, fly screens missing on windows, runners for the sliding door to the deck from the kitchen so dirty and full of debris that made the door difficult to open.• Even if described as a feature, and some of the reasons why we selected the property, the pier and the gazebo were out of bounds, considerably reducing our enjoyment of the property• There was not sufficient space to hang clothes, particularly on the top floor.• The upper deck had a table and 4 chairs on it, which were dirty and rusty. The fabric on the seat of the chairs was ripped and probably dangerous.Additionally the support and communications from the letting agency were very poor:• It took until Tuesday to sort out the toilet problem and did not get calls back when I was told I was going to. The excuse given was that the letting company does not allow to ring foreign cell telephones.• The agent promised to come with the plumber but did not turned up until I was gone for the day, even if I had clearly told him that I was going fishing from 0930 h.• We were told that the charges would be reviewed as the gazebo and landing pier were not usable, but have not received any notifications.• In resume, what it could have been a great stay resulted in an OK stay. The house is tired and for the price paid we were expecting a hig ##### Juan Carlos N. ### 6/10 Okay #### Rajnikant 19 Sept 2025 Liked: Communication Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Location was excellent...however lack of proper maintenance is veey evident. We observed spiders, missing / non operational windows and shades, kitchen drawers broken, torn wall papers etc.....the pictures shown on website shows excellent conditon which is obviously deceiving.

The place was very clean, spacious and beautiful. I was lucky enough to see an orca whale swimming front of the property, just in front of whiffin spit. I later found out that whiffin spit is a great place to do whale watching, as they come around frequently. I would absolutely stay here again. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7dc464d5-2a30-4edb-a799-b277f55f02f0-1751373848696.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1a6eea1f-a91f-48cf-806e-a2eeae25ea48-1751373949017.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jessica C.

Beautiful. Love the ocean views, the dock, and yard. Sadly, it's in bad repair, dated, and not very cozy. The house was pretty unclean upon arrival. Sunflower seeds on the floor and kitchen pans still dirty in the cabinets. The house feels tired overall. Towel rods in the bathroom repaired with electric tape is just one example. Furniture is mismatched throughout the house. It just kind of feels like someone went to a thrift store and got random used pieces. Strange to have random dining room tables for 4 people in various rooms, but not one space for a group larger than 6 to sit together for a meal. Not what you would expect from a $ 1000-a-night home. No extra sheets or extra blankets anywhere in the home. Not a single blanket around in a home that is drafty and somewhat cold. The bedroom suite has outdoor wicker furniture that is sooo uncomfortable. The kitchen is poorly stocked. Not a single oven mit is available. Not enough dishes for a home that hosts 6+ people. The gazebo was advertised with a listing, but the stairs to it are missing with caution tape blocking the entrance. This was not disclosed to us. Musky smell throughout the house. It just kind of feels dingy in many ways. This could be a fantastic rental if it was cared for better. It just feels neglected. Sad. ##### Tim M. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2024
