Wonderful, peaceful month-long stay

We felt right at home, beginning with the warm welcome from our hosts, Tom and Teresa. The gorgeous views over the nearby golfcourse and forest led us to lunches and suppers on the expansive patio, always enjoying the deer, geese, and occasional rabbit that stopped by. Vancouver Island is a beautiful place to stay, although we are older than average and not quite up to all the hikes possible. We did take an overnight excursion down to Victoria to see museums and Butchart Gardens there, happy to come 'home' to our quiet retreat at Swan Lake. Nearby restaurants also added wonderful cuisine (seafood chowder!) (Nanoose Bay Cafe a plus), though cooking on a hot plate was sometimes a challenge. Altogether, a lovely retreat.

Perfect getaway location

Beautiful spacious property at a perfect location, and better than expected. Property owner Teresa was so gracious and accommodating. Fully stocked kitchen with generous amount of breakfast items supplied. Comfortable bed with plenty of linens and bath towels. Comfortable living room furniture, HDTV with cable and fast WiFi internet. We enjoyed watching many deer from the large covered patio area overlooking the golf course fairway. We also enjoyed many scenic attractions and local restaurants. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you Teresa!

Quiet Home overlooking Golf Course

Lovely spot overlooking Hole 1 at Fairwinds Golf Course. We enjoyed morning coffee on covered deck with Deer wondering through. Location is only a few minutes walking distance to the ocean with amazing views. Nanoose is very peaceful. There are plenty of great restaurants close by to enjoy. Tom and Teresa were very easy to communicate with. A variety of breakfast foods were left for us to enjoy each morning at our leisure. King size bed was comfortable and decor was tasteful. I would recommend this location for anyone wanting to golf, explore Vancouver Island or just wanting to enjoy peaceful walks amidst beautiful scenery.
