Exceptional house! We had everything we needed and wanted (including great weather) for a fantastic 5 day stay. We enjoyed everything about the house - the sauna, the hot tub, the chairs by the beach, the firepit, the beach access, the chairs by the beach, the comfy bedrooms … all made for an excellent stay. We did not want to ever leave. Highly recommend!

Loved the property, especially having coffee every morning on the adirondack chairs on the board walk. Being right on the beach was amazing. The views from upstairs and deck were fantastic. It was nice to be walking distance to food places (Hotel Zed, Wildside Grill, Tacofino, Tofitian Cafe). Other family members made great use of the hot tub and sauna and also did some surfing.The house is very well set up for a family like ours with three generations staying together, with grandparents, parents, children and dogs.Only one suggestion I might have is that having a family with a young child and a dog that are escape artists a gate on both the beach and road sides would have brought us more peace of mind.
