Peaceful Refuge

I was greeted by two large friendly dogs, much to my delight. The room was pristine, well-equipped, and very private, with my own outdoor entrance. The hosts were friendly and welcoming. Comfy bed, lovely linens, and good shower. The three horses happily accepted my apple treats. I went for a lovely walk through the forest straight from my room. The location is quiet and peaceful, with easy access to the rest of the Saanich Peninsula for wonderful hikes, the Deep Cove Market, the town of Sidney, and the ferry terminal.

Pup’s Paradise!

Hidden gem is right! We had a wonderful time exploring North Saanich and using this as a home base for lots of other BC exploration. We brought our dog, and she had such a blast! The hosts were amazing, so welcoming and kind. They shared with us their horse, miniature horses, and golden retrievers, as well as great recommendations for hiking and food. This was the perfect holiday, not only for us, but for our pup, who was definitely in paradise!
