We had a wonderful time there with many day trips - Red Gate, Wildplay, Transfer beach, Nanaimo biking, Marie falls, Roberts Memorial, Elliot beach, Old Town Bakery, Biking to Owl’s Nest Cafe, and sight seeing in Chemainus. Lots packed into 5 days! The house was perfect - lots of board games in a calm and air conditioned environment with many cups of coffee on the deck. We loved the vinyl collection! It was great to listen to all the oldies from my childhood while we stayed here. We were tempted to add some Fleetwood Mac and CCR to complement the collection!. We would definitely recommend this place!

Very clean VRBO, accurate description online. Fit our needs while visiting from the states. A few things: could use throw blankets for guests to use on the couch or snuggle up with, makes for a much more inviting experience. The main downfall-The downstairs shower/tub combo is less than desirable. We would recommend spending the money to rip it out and put a walk in shower in. My husband two sons are all over 6 foot, large athletic “men”. This shower was a challenge for them. 1- you have to step up into it 2- there is zero arm space to move around with the shower curtain sticking to you. 3- the water pressure was not good due to the hose like nozzle. With it being the only shower in the house we under stand why you want to keep a tub to keep it family friendly but the shower is not going to accommodate elderly people with the stepping in and out and zero space to move about.The down stairs toilet seat kept popping off. We tried to get it tightened however it still wouldn’t hold. The primary bedroom downstairs bed should be to be a king and raised off the ground. Also was hard to get in and out of bed especially for elderly guests. The upstairs queen was on a real frame no crates and would do better down stairs if you don’t want to upgrade to a king. The reason for a king, our youngest son wanted to sleep with us, he was scared sleeping upstairs. In a king bed he would fit but the queen was out of the question therefore he slept on the floor, another reason for blanket’s.
