Victoria winter stay
We enjoyed our stay in the historic Fernwood district. Loys of great, interesting neighborhood walks. We could walk to the shopping mall and grocery stores. Bus service was also nearby. The studio apartment was was well equipped. The very comfortable bed was particularly appreciated. I would recommend this place to anyone needing a getaway to a lovely city in a safe, quiet neighborhood.

Stay at Fernwood
stayed here for 1 month. overall great place to stay. place has everything you would need for a short term stay. very comfortable bed and great shower. This is a single unit on the main floor of a house so can be a little loud at times - just footsteps and people talking in the hallways and doors closing which may be bothersome if you like to sleep in and are a light sleeper. also there's loud music from the streets on weekend evenings but it doesn't go on too late. overall, would stay here again.

Great location
This comfortable, clean , bright apartment is perfect for walking around the area to see the blooms. Mostly it is flat, unless you want to walk to the Fernwood Square or the Hillside mall. And those are not long walks. You can easily go downtown if you chose. The apartment is clean and has everything you might need, modern appliances in the kitchen. The only unusual aspect is entering through the bed room. Laundry is a separate area but easily accessible. Other tenants friendly , i could easily have stayed there much longer, so comfortable. The owners are not on site but easily contacted and very good to deal with.

Fabulous!!!
I came for medical reasons. Excellent place, close to medical facilities. Neighbourhood lovely for walking, dining, cafe's, markets. Place was clean, bright, nicely furnished, VERY comfortable. Very quiet from others in suites/road traffic. Situated in an area quick to downtown Victoria, beach walks, exploring various neighbourhoods./activities. Kitchen, linen closest, closets were well equipped for a long stay. Neil or Heidi were very quick to respond to any concerns or questions. Highly recommended!!!

About the host

Hosted by Neil and Heidi Piller

Host profile image
My wife Heidi and I, and our high school and university aged children, love spending time outdoors (canoeing, hiking, kayaking and surfing) and traveling. Our main base is in Vancouver but we also spend time with our family in Victoria and at our home on Mayne Island. Most of our rental properties are long term but we are pleased to offer two units for shorter term rentals. We are members in good standing with Landlord BC and enjoy taking good care of our tenants and our rental properties.

Why they chose this property

In 2016 we purchased the six-unit Fernwood House in Victoria so we would have a place to stay when we are on Vancouver Island. The Ferwood area has a great vibe and we love walking up the Cornerstone Cafe for a coffee or to the Fernwood Inn for dinner. We recently finished renovating and furnishing this unit for rentals of 1-12 months. View our other VRBO one bedroom listing at 989015. We have stayed at many VRBO properties around the world and know that you will enjoy this great central location in Victoria.

What makes this property unique

Fernwood House was built in 1913 as a large single family home. More recently it was converted to a legal six-plex. For more history on this great neighborhood visit:
