You'll feel like you're staying at a resort! \*\*\*\*New rules in British Colombia state that all short term rentals must be part of the owners principal residence. Any short term rental you look at in BC or certainly in the greater Victoria are has to comply with these same rules. These rules are enforced by huge fines or delisting properties that are not compliant. Having said that, my wife and I are compliant and have completed all documentation with the province and the local city government. We have purpose built a lovely three bedroom, two and a half bathroom space for you to enjoy. Having said that you must understand that WE LIVE IN THE BASEMENT with our small dog Hershey. She is a hypoallergenic dog. Meaning those that may have allergy concerns should not be concerned. She is non shedding and her breed is a Cockapoo. Hershey has no access to the rental space unless it is given to her by our guests. She sometimes spends more time with our guests than she does with us. The basement suite has it's own entrance and thus your space is completely separate. We have been using this daily rental as our retirement income for many years and are very comfortable with the set up. We leave our guest completely alone to enjoy the space as they like and have no issues with groups of any size. Feel free to reach out if you have questions or any concerns about our property and how we run our business. This stunning 3 bedroom plus two sofa beds with double mattresses/ 2.5 bathroom home is newly renovated and minutes from the regions famous Starlight Stadium and other local favorites. Home features hot water on demand.(never runs out) Air conditioning. Living room and family room. Two TVs. Lots of room for the extended family or kids to spread out. We also offer a dream kitchen with tons of counter space for the chef or baker in the group. COVID NOTICE: Your safety is extremely important to us, so we take every step possible to ensure a 100% sanitized space between guests cleanings. The space This stunning and extremely spacious 3 bedroom is newly renovated top to bottom, including a brand new kitchen with gas range. On the main floor, you'll find a large living room and dining room, which leads into the kitchen. Off of the kitchen is a separate family room with new 4K 50" TV and powder room.

The location was close to Victoria, 8 min drive to Hatley Castle and close to shops and restaurants. Plus the Galloping Goose trail and transit were just down the street. A very walkable place! Everything was clean and organized and Tim was great to communicate with. The rooms were comfortable and the kitchen was a good size for cooking group meals. We enjoyed our evenings in the living room with the fire crackling beside us. The views at the back of the house of the nature reserve were very beautiful and we also enjoyed a morning walk around Glen Lake. The highlight of our stay was getting to play with Tim’s dog Hershey - what a sweet girl. We gladly accepted her inside to hang out with us! Tim’s care and attention to ensuring we had a comfortable stay was greatly appreciated. You were one of the best hosts I have had! Thank you! I would absolutely recommend staying here. ##### Natalie P. Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Shawna B. 15 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Location and Comfortable Beds, But Important Details Were Overlooked We recently stayed at this VRBO property and appreciated several positive aspects, including a very convenient location, comfortable beds, and high-quality towels. The microwave, dishwasher, and general cleanliness of the kitchen were satisfactory, making it suitable for light meal preparation.However, there were a few concerns worth noting for future guests:1\. Owner Entry Without Notice: The owners entered the property during our stay without prior communication or our consent to collect garbage. This raised concerns around privacy and safety.2\. Security and Multi-Unit Access: The listing notes you get the "entire home", however, the house is a multi-rental property, but this was not clearly stated or emphasized. The information appeared mid-paragraph and was easy to overlook. Upon arrival, we realized there were other occupants in the home, including a dog. In addition, there are at least two interior doors that we, as guests, could not lock—posing a potential security issue for those unfamiliar with the setup.3\. Cleanliness and Maintenance: While parts of the home were clean, the overall condition did not match the “spotless” description. The bathroom floor needed more attention, and high-touch surfaces like kitchen cabinetry, doors and walls could use a deeper cleaning. The windows (both inside and out) were noticeably in need of washing, and one stove burner was not functioning properly. Cookware and utensils were worn and of low quality, which limited our abilit ##### Shawna B.

The property is very clean and very spacious. It was able to house all six adults and a three year-old for 5 days. Central location meant easy access to Langford and area. While it would’ve been good to be able to access the backyard, the sitting areas and the deck were really nice. We enjoyed being able to cook a couple meals in the kitchen and several commented on how well provisioned the kitchen was. We highly recommend this house and the host. If we’re in the area again and we have a large group, we’ll be looking at renting this house again. ##### Rob F. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laurel N. 11 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Tim and Nessa were fantastic hosts. The house is beautiful and spacious and well located for visiting Victoria (about a 30 minute drive). Hershey’s visits were a highlight. The two living rooms were great for the six of us plus baby. It was very convenient having two full bathrooms upstairs plus the half bath downstairs. All of the appliances were up to date and the upstairs laundry room had space for hanging clothes that could not go in the dryer. Having arrived from 3 different locations we had 3 cars and parking was more than adequate. We could not have found a better place for our family group. ##### Laurel N.

Good directions regarding recycling and composting. Thanks for composting! The towel rack in the primary bedroom bathroom comes apart easily, however. Also, some hooks on the wall of the downstairs bathroom would have been helpful. Thanks again, Tim! ##### Celeste N.
