About this property
Private forest setting, clean with New king bed. Tranquil space, close to town.
Come visit our property to find peace and tranquility in our new private one bedroom suite. Trumans Retreat is quite literally in the forest surrounded by nature. We have taken pride in providing a fully equipped kitchen, relaxing living room, clean spacious bathroom and brand new king-size bed. Relish in the natural landscape vibrating with positive energy outside on your own private patio.
We're conveniently located just a 5 minute drive from downtown Sooke, and 5-10 minutes from stunning beaches, lakes, rivers, hiking and a variety of restaurants. If you love the sounds of nature and peaceful nights this is your place!
Important Details:
We love animals, but our suite is pet-free to accommodate our own furry family members Buttercup our indoor/outdoor cat, and Berk our gentle Anatolian Shepard. He is our protector and will bark on occasion, it’s his job to do so but we do not let him bark excessively.
Smoking is permitted outside on the patio only. Our property is very special to us and we ask that you respect our privacy as we will respect yours.
We prioritize tranquility, so we kindly ask that you refrain from hosting parties or playing loud music.
Join us for a rejuvenating stay, and let the peaceful vibes of our of paradise work their magic on you.
