Just amazing - easy access - great communication - perfect location for both car or bus - clean - has all the little necessities- and to top it off a spa for a nice relax after all the hikes and bike rides.
We loved this Vrbo! Very clean and the perfect location. It was quiet and a great place to stay to get away from the busy city, but close enough to get to it! Great place! Will stay again!
It was a great place to stay. Great neighborhood. Great hosts. Alison and Josh were amazing. We would book again next time in the Vancouver area. Thanks again for everything Alison and Josh.
We had the most amazing experience staying here during our visit to Vancouver. Josh and Alison were wonderful hosts. They were very warm and welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. They went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience and we definitely did! The suite had just been updated and was cozy and prestine. We would recommend this place to anyone visiting Vancouver!
We rented this great property to "hide" from our kids and take a much needed break from parenting. The space was wonderful and comfy to hangout in. We binged a ton of tv and movies. The hot tub was great for soaking in after walking every where. And there's a ton to walk to. We never drove our car the whole time we stayed here. The owners were friendly and easy to access!
We had a great stay. Alison was always quick to answer our messages. The place was clean and supplied with the basic necessities: towels, soap, sheets and blanket, etc. The appliances were new and awesome: ceiling fans, oven/stove/microwave, keurig, washer and dryer, adjustable bed. The hot tub was a nice perk! It's a great backyard space that is shared with the hosts and their lovely dog Timber. I really enjoyed sitting on the chairs outside and reading. All in all, couldn't ask for a better experience at the price we paid.
We were surprised with a heavily upgraded room! A full kitchen, bigger bed with adjustable frame, and a rain shower head! Brand new remodel! Great neighborhood with a greenway and fantastic restaurants nearby. They provided small amounts of dairy and eggs which saved us a trip to the store. Hottub was big and enjoyable!
From delicious coffee under the covered patio to sunset hot tubs, this was everything we were hoping for in a quite North Vancouver location. Friendly & wonderful hosts made our stay the perfect getaway while we explored every bit of Vancouver.
Loved everything about it. Hosts are wonderful and so is the house and the location.

We really enjoyed our stay. The bed and pillows were comfortable. We had our own space but Josh and Alison were there if we needed anything and they were extremely helpful.
Josh and Alison were welcoming and generous hosts. The location was well-situated in a beautiful neighbourhood - with a convenient walk to the bus stop. We had a wonderful stay, and hope to be back one day.
Location, amenities, and hosts are excellent! Josh and Allison are super friendly and kind. We had a really comfortable stay, bed was great, and parking too!
Thanks!
The accomodation was very nice. We made good use of the nearby walking trails and public transportation. Lonsdale Quay, Capilano Swinging Bridge and BC Place were all easy to reach. The hosts were generous with the shared common areas.

Had a wonderful stay here with Alison and Josh. Location was perfect with easy access into downtown Vancouver by car. If I could give it more than 5 stars, i would.
We really appreciated Josh and Allison’s warm welcome. Their house is cozy, clean and the hosts are always available to help and give their recommendations. We also enjoyed the hot tub and the calm of the backyard.

This property is in a great location - nice neighbourhood and easy to take public transit to get downtown. The house was very clean and Josh and Allison make you feel right at home.
We enjoyed staying at this property and would rent again. It was very clean, had everything we needed. Allison and Josh were friendly and helpful. We used their kitchen, backyard, and laundry facilities. It was a comfortable place to be.
This was our first share the kitchen stay. It was perfect. Great hosts, lovely hot tub, lots of private space, spotless house. All in a private quiet neighborhood with a walking, biking trail right our the front door. Host have thought of everything: grocery bags for shopping, laundry bag, desk, comfy couch and great TV and so friendly.

Alison and Josh were warm, helpful and super kind. The house was kept in great condition, the instructions clear, and they made sure we had a good stay. Would recommend.
I came in late and Josh waited up to make sure I made it and showed me around so I could find everything. Such a wonderful couple. So attentive knowing that I was there for medical appointments they checked in on me and we had amazing conversations during my stay. Absolutely loved sitting on their back patio in the morning just listening to the birds. So relaxing
We had an amazing short stay with Josh and Alison. They were welcoming and made us feel at home and at ease.
The house was amazing and even better was the views from the hot tub.
We made some friends both human and animal in Josh, Allison, Timber the Rottweiller and a few squirrels.
We will be back next year for sure!
Alison and Josh made us feel like home during our 3 day stay at their cozy cottage on the shore. Everything was super clean, organized and easily accessible. They provided us with very useful information about the best places to visit in Vancouver. We also enjoyed very much their hot tub and the coffees we made from their coffee machine. The cottage is located in a quite neighbourhood with easy access to Vancouver downtown, and the bed and pillows were perfect for sleeping comfortably. We highly recommend this cottage for your stay in Vancouver.
Wow Wow et RE wow
