The carriage house was absolutely lovey! I stayed with my husband and 5yr old daughter and it was perfect for us. Our host was responsive and accommodating. The house was clean and organized, and my personal favourite was the bedding, it felt like we were staying a good fiends place. Thanks to our host for a wonderful and memorable stay.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
Born and raised in Ontario and moved to Vancouver Island in 2012. I have an equal appreciation for bustling downtown’s, relaxing countryside’s, hot sandy beaches and everything in between.

For over a decade I was in the hospitality industry, so being a VRBO host is both a natural and personally rewarding fit.

I take great pride in the suite we have created and hope you enjoy it as well as the mountains and ocean that surround us.
