Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michelle L., Victoria, Canada 6 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great place, Great Locations We stayed at Lynne's place for the Canada Day weekend. It is the perfect location to walk to all the activities in the park. Not to mention it's about 2.5 blocks to the DQ! The suite is really quiet, a train went by one evening and with the door closed I couldn't even hear it! There are the occasional expected creaks from being in the lower level historical house, but overall quiet and peaceful. The photos do not do this lovely gem justice! It is bright and clean! (the summer sun comes right into the bedroom, so if you are a late sleeper, a sleep mask will be your friend). There are serval nods to the historical age of the house. Old exposed beams, repurposed heritage doors, very charming. Lynne obviously cares about her guest's comfort and experience. It is much larger than you think. And I was happy to see the recent addition of a small stove. A good variety of kitchen tools, dishes and cutlery. Perfect! We also took advantage of an optional bunk area just off the bedroom. My 5ft10" teen boy fit comfortably and loved having his own space. The King bed is luxurious! The bedroom is spacious. The towels are plush! Lynne has though of pretty much everything a person could need. The afternoon sun warmed the front room slightly, but not uncomfortably. We found keeping the fun yellow door closed during the day helped to keep the sleeping areas basement cool. Would recommend and would stay again if the need arose. ##### Michelle L.

It is roomy, the bed is very comfortable and it is well-appointed. There is a large picture window overlooking the back yard with a beautiful willow tree. The weather was great, so we could sit there and enjoy the view in full sunshine. There is no TV, but we had books to read an work to do, so missed it only a little bit. We highly recommend this place. ##### Jean D. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2022
