You can play 18 holes at the spectacular Furry Creek Golf and Country Club, ride the Sea to Sky gondola up the famous Squamish Chief, Shannon Falls or ski at Cypress Mountain, all 20 minutes away.

For world class skiing, Whistler, home to the 2010 Olympics is only an hour away. At nearby Horseshoe Bay, you can join a fishing charter, an Eco-ocean tour or rent a boat to discover local islands at your pace and bring your catch home to grill on the deck. Eateries are plentiful with a dozen restaurants and bars between quaint gift shops.

Lions Bay has many hiking trails for the novice to experts who come to climb the famous 'Lions' a pair of 2000 foot high twin peaks overlooking Howe Sound giving Lion's Bay it's namesake.

In the evening, fire up the barbecue, uncork a bottle of wine and dine al-fresco on your private deck as cruise ships sail by. After dinner, enjoy a beverage in the gazebo and witness a truly stunning sunset followed by an evening soak in your private hot tub. It’s all here for you at Extended Stays in Lions Bay.

Perfect Relaxing Getaway

A friend and I stayed here to escape our kids for the weekend and it was a perfect relaxing getaway. We spent most of our time in the hot tub but did watch a movie on the big screen each night. The beds are comfy and it was so quiet and peaceful.

Stunningly Beautiful Views!

Liz and Jon were wonderful hosts! Made us feel very welcome-they really think about all the details in making their guests comfortable. We loved the amazing views. Beautiful landscaping. Great location north of Vancouver-close to a grocery store and restaurants in Horseshoe Bay. The hot tub and large projection TV were also really enjoyed. Great hiking in the area. Quite a few steps to get down to the suite. Loved seeing the sea lions and seals at the local beach. Look forward to returning!

Stunning views from beautiful accommodation

Until you see the views from this property, it's impossible to visualise just how jaw dropping they are. Everything we needed was at the property, it was comfortable, very clean and Liz was a lovely host. She went out of her way to make sure we had a great stay, it's no surprise she has so many return visitors. To sum up: lovely accommodation, stunning views and a fab host.

A great time in Lions Bay

The views were even more spectacular than the pictures. We enjoyed our coffee every morning on the balcony. Liz and John were great hosts - everything from helping with our luggage to tips and information about the area. We loved the location being out of town but also close to downtown Vancouver and Squamish/Whistler area. The hot tub and large projection TV were welcomed touches. Would stay again.

The place is amazing...the apartment has everything you need and has a perfect location between Vancouver and Whistler Village. The view from the balcony and the hot tub was really feeling like a 5 star resort. Property manager was very helpful with check-in and check-out and are amazing people. This was a perfect place to spend our vacation and looking forward to our next booking.

This property was fantastic! My friend and I stayed for 3 nights and we cannot wait to go back. The property was just as described in the listing and was super clean. The host was so nice and communicative. We sat outside on the balcony and saw whales in the morning and the sunsets were unbelievable. Liz's husband offered to take our photo in front of the sunset and he captured it perfectly. We loved it and we cannot wait to return!

This property is a show stopper! It hangs just over the bluffs of Lions Bay - multiple places on the property to enjoy the views from! Inside the unit is tastefully decorated and spacious! A full kitchen, movie area, game table and seperate rooms make it both private yet inclusive! Liz and John are both friendly and fun and knowledgable of the area! Thank you for having us!

Weather was perfect

We chose a quick getaway at the end of October and the best pictures on the website are the views we experienced. Sunset view was fantastic. We took some day trips to go hiking, otherwise we just relaxed in the hot tub, sat on the deck or watched Netflix on the big screen. Took a bit to drown out the hum of the nearby highway, but other than that it was the perfect getaway.

This was the perfect place to stay outside of the city, but close enough to it, that we could easily travel in for the day. The home is just beautiful, inside and out.

We had an amazing stay. Liz was a wonderful host. The view was spectacular. All the accoutrements necessary for relaxing, preparation of meals use of the barbecue, and the quality of all the kitchen appliances were second to none. We would stay here anytime that we are back in the area. Very convenient to horseshoe Bay from which ferries will take you to many of the smaller islands where you can enjoy local flavours and adventures. Also just a short drive away to the mini fantastic hiking opportunities at Squamish

Relaxing and comfortable

The pictures of this unit are very accurate. The view from this place is spectacular and the unit is very spacious, high end, with everything you need. The bed is comfy too! An equally valuable feature was the hospitality shown to us by Liz and Jon. We really appreciated their help in unloading and loading our bags plus their check-ins and attentiveness. We stayed at their place during a stressful time in our lives, as our own home was undergoing water damage repairs and we were navigating a brutal insurance claim. Liz and Jon were so supportive. They invited us for a drink on their deck, and listened intently as we told our story. They are warm, friendly, and kind. This combination of an amazing place, phenomenal view, and gracious hosts was very special, and we highly recommend staying at their place!
