After a day savoring the delightful tourist spots which make Victoria and the island a world-renowned vacation area, you'll come home to a cozy one-bedroom suite, on a Quiet Cul de sac . Close to sand and water, trees and trails. Our comfortable one bedroom suite, with private access, is in a residential neighborhood next to Glen Lake, in the beautiful area of Langford. Our place is a short walk to sports fields, the YMCA, the Rugby Canada National Training Centre, Pacific Football Club, shopping, bowling, skating, theatres, groceries, and the galloping goose trail.

The kitchen is complete with a fridge, stove, microwave, Keurig, small appliances, pots, pans, and even a picnic basket complete with beach towels to support your adventures on the island.

We have Wi-Fi and cable TV. Our suite includes a stackable washer and dryer. Linens are supplied. The bathroom will have shampoo, conditioner, body wash and a hair dryer.

Bring your kayaks, paddleboards and fishing gear if you like as the lake is stocked with trout. You can fish off the dock or there's a small boat launch for boats with electric motors.

Beautiful Little Find

The hosts were very welcoming and self check-in was seamless. This location was convenient to explore Victoria, the south coast of the island & Butchart Garden and hikes to the north. The apartment was well stocked with everything we needed for our 3 night stay. We had a lovely stay and would highly recommend.

Home away from home

John and Susan were the perfect hosts!! Great communication and we really enjoyed our chats and suggestions for the area. The suite was a cozy coastal retreat with an inviting window seat to enjoy the lake view and many bird species visiting the garden. Super comfy bed, relaxing rain shower and well stocked kitchen. Central location was great for getting to all our favourite spots both in Victoria and Sooke. Thanks for such a wonderful experience and will be back!!

Great stay!

The place is beautiful and perfectly located near a beach, close to lots of shopping and restaurants, and handy to the rugby facility. The house was easy to access and well-appointed for our needs. We would recommend to friends and other family travelling in the area.

February Retreat

Booked for the month, unfortunately due to health issues, had to cut retreat short. This place was very cosy and well beyond what I was expecting. The property managers are very exceptional and caring people. They really care and are there for their guests. My opinion, probably the the best on the Island!

In the heart of all we like to do.

This property was conveniently located close to little Glen Lake where we paddled. A short ride to the Galloping Goose trail was perfect! The hosts were excellent, welcoming, engaged and very helpful. The WIFI connectivity was a little off and on but other than that it was ideal!

Perfect lakeside getaway!

This place was amazing. The unit was spotless and like a home away from home. It is fully equipped with everything you could need and more. John Brian and Susan were so helpful with local information and anything we needed. The unit is cosy with beautiful views of Glen Lake and there is direct access through a gate at the bottom of the garden. We can’t wait to come back and stay here again! We would definitely recommend staying here if you are visiting Langford!

A hidden gem

I would give this place a 6 or 7 stars out of 5. I was pleasantly surprised with this apartment. The costing and location is perfect. The location is close to a bus stop and has pleasant walks nearby. The kitchen is better equipped than my own place! and the owners are amazing to interact with, they went out of their way to ensure I had the best stay. I have not a single complaint or recommendation on how they could do better. If I am in town again, I will surely stay with them again.

Nice little apartment

After a very warm welcome we entered a fully equipped apartment. There are blankets and chairs for the beach at there nearby lake. Everything has its place and is labelled. We felt comfortable returning after a long day with excursions. Thanks to John and Sue, who really want you to have a great time.
