Comfortable, spacious, very well equipped and Tara is a great host. Easy to find and convenient for Sidney town centre and its facilities. Ideal for travellers who like to self cater like us with plenty of storage space for provisions.

We have stayed with Tara before. She always makes you welcome. The property has been used quite a bit but you can't tell. They keep it in top shape. This time we were greeted with fresh blueberries and fresh baked blueberry muffins. They were delicious. Tara communicates with her customers about any changes she makes such as new mattress and new door locks. She has been the best host of all the vacation rentals we have used. Already planning another visit.

The communication was FABULOUS!! And, when I asked for something above and beyond what was advertised....Tara was QUICK to accommodate. The garden was in full bloom; the vegetables were ready to harvest. The street was quiet and safe. The house was very close to the bus stop, where we got the bus to Victoria. I don't typically use public transportation...yet, even though I had a rental car, it stayed parked, since using the bus was EASY!!! Before the trip, Tara was a wealth of information about the area. We will stay here again!!!

We had a very nice stay at Tara’s VRBO. There are lovely flowers just out side the windows for the unit that were flowing during our April stay.

Sidney’s Best!!

Tara’s suite is a wonderful home away from home! It was perfect for all of our needs, just a short walk from downtown, with a beautiful property and fantastic garden! The suite is cosy and roomy at the same time, with a well appointed kitchen. A private patio with BBQ is also available for cooking and relaxing. We highly recommend this VRBO property!!!
