Amazing place to stay, with a beautiful view. Everything was clean and tidy, and it's a very quiet and private little suite. They also provided pretty much everything you might need as a traveler coming to stay. Didn't get to see the local bear, but we did get to see mama river otter and her babies. 10/10 would definitely stay here again in the future.

From the minute we arrived, until the minute we (sadly) left, our experience was absolutely fantastic. Unexpectedly thoughtful treats (too many to mention) awaited, along with amazing views and a wonderful dock perfect for enjoying the ocean wildlife up-close while sipping our evening bevvies. Cannot say enough about the location, our wonderful hosts, Lori and Dave, and the immaculate, incredibly well-stocked suite itself. Thanks so much for EVERYTHING!!!

We loved everything about this waterfront accommodation, the suite was private,newer , modern and the kitchen is well stocked . It had a beautiful ocean view and nice sun deck . We loved watching the seals play near the dock. Lori and David are very nice people and easy to talk to. The home made bread was a nice and delicious treat. We would definitely stay again and would highly recommend it.

The property was over and above our expectations. The views off the deck where amazing with the seals sunning themselves, the otters playing and the deer family strolling by to say hello. You will need for nothing when staying here. It is clear to see the hosts just want want there guests to have a great experience.

Fantastic one bedroom apartment with all the amenities. Very comfortable and quiet. Large patio overlooking Sooke inlet. A bouquet of garden flowers and a fresh baked loaf of bread greeted us on our arrival. The hosts paid attention to all the small details which included chocolates on the pillows. Definitely our favourite stay (out of six) on the island!
