This property is definitely a gem!
I travelled with my 2 kids and we had a terrific stay. In fact, I don’t think we could have found a better place to stay. Everything was perfect for what we needed.
Dan is an excellent host & we will absolutely stay here again.
Very clean and bright space! Bedrooms a generous size; beds in the rooms are comfortable. Minimal outdoor amenities are balanced by a location at the edge of town with easy access to the beautiful spots around Crofton in the Cowichan Valley.

Hi Christin,
Just touching base as I do this time of year with past clients. Thank you for your kind review.
As it was only 8/10, I would like to get some more information on how we can do better with future clients that may feel as you, about the "minimal outdoor amenities".
We provide a sitting area to enjoy, a BBQ and onsite parking. With some guests, we allow the use of a trampolene and if allowed by regulations, there is a fire pit with wood, or when campfire restrictions are on, we use a gas portable firepit and extra chairs.
If these were not offered or seen while on your visit, we apologise as they may simply have been in the garage due to rain or the sort.
I would like to know what else you feel would be a benefit for you and other guests so we can ensure its benefit this year for all guests!
Look forward to your response and wish you a great summer season.
Kind regards,
Dan
This little charming place in Crofton was so delightful. Dan was a wonderful host and we appreciated the warm hospitality. Can’t wait to come back again! Thanks so much.

Thank you for the wonderful review Brenda. It’s my goal for my guests to relax and enjoy their stay. So glad that you enjoyed our 2 Wheel Inn.
The suite contained everything for a great stay. Beds were amazing, excellent shower and kitchen facilities.
Dan was a great host with good communications. We'll take advantage of the bike storage garage next time we visit.
Sitting outside in nice weather the view is spectacular!

Spencer and his group were very friendly and kind. They really enjoyed the offerings here in the Cowichan Valley and did not realize how much there is to see and do here. So glad it was an enjoyable stay for them and really look forward to thier return. 5 Star Guests!
We came to the island for a wedding. Crofton was a great location for us. It was very quiet at night. We could sit outside in the evenings and watch the activity cities in the harbour. Dan was very accommodating and friendly.

About the host
Hosted by Dan Robin
We love to travel on two wheels and in four as well! Meet great people everywhere we go and thought it a great way to meet more, is to host. We built this amazing home only minutes from the ocean and the view is beautiful. Osborne Bay is an active harbour with BC Ferry, large ships as well as pleasure craft always on the go. Lived in this community for over 30 years and know the area very well. Great mountain biking and road cycling all around here as well as the Trans Canada Trail only 10 minutes drive. The town is quaint and quiet with friendly people walking the boardwalk or relaxing at a pub or great diner. Wineries all around as well as distillers now so it makes for an enjoyable weekend retreat area as well. Take a look at the towns info on Google. Its a gem and worth a visit!
