My wife and I built our dream suite on the side of our house to host our out of town friends and family. When that’s not happening…..it’s all yours :)
Our side of the house and the suite were constructed to reduce noise transfer as much as possible. The two spaces are professionally separated by four layers of drywall, as well as additional internal sound dampening material.

We are often away camping or taking our kids on other adventures. That being said, please call or text us if you have any questions or issues, and we will get back to you as soon as possible to try and help out.

We have set the suite up to give our guests as much self-sufficiency as possible. We've added digital door lock access, Wifi doorbells, and (3) 27/7 auto recoding/deleting outside security cameras that cover: the driveway and the front and rear aspects of the suite/house. We want our guest to feel safe and supported (should any issues arise, and we are not home at the time of incident).

Our plan is to not interact with the guests, unless, of course, you require something. That being said, we may occasionally need to check the hot tub water chemical levels, shovel snow, etc.. When that is required, we will make every effort to do it when the guests are away from the suite, or in the morning quietly, before we go to work (ie 6:00am).

We want everyone to feel safe, as well as accountable to the harmony of a quiet and peaceful stay.

Please read our reviews, and book now.
We look forward to hosting you!!

About the host

Hosted by Michael

Hi!!
We are a husband and wife team, who previously enjoyed extensive travel, but have recently traded our passport stamps for potty training stickers (ha!).
With the addition of our two beautiful children, we decided to renovate our space into a self-contained, legal suite for friends, family, and like-minded travellers to enjoy.
We are kind, thoughtful, and detail oriented people who look forward to hosting similar personalities.
Thank-you for your interest in our suite, and we hope you enjoy your trip.

Why they chose this property

Perfect place to relax and enjoy your time away from your day-to-day life.
Close to the beach, thoughtful touches, and super clean. The new hot tub and deck for the guests isn't too bad either....ha!!
Treat yourself with our suite... you won't be disappointed :)
