Private suite located on the garden side of our home

Trailside Villa Suite is located in an upscale area in our City of Duncan BC Canada. Our suite is private , with a key lock entry. You will not share the space with anyone else. We have approx 400 sq. Ft. of living space for the unit. There is a private bedroom with a queen bed and also a double sofa bed in the sitting room. The quests are happy with the 4 piece bathroom , as some like to soak in the tub at the end of a big day. The little kitchen area has all the essentials for a microwave meal, coffee, tea, toast etc. The suite is on the garden side of our home where you will enjoy our pond , bushes and flowers as well as your private outside deck which is very peaceful . We are close to the hospital, grocery stores, laundry mat, restaurants and pubs. Duncan is situated between Victoria BC and Nanaimo BC , and is therefore a perfect destination for all your day trips and sight seeing adventures. Have fun touring Vancouver Island.

Perfect Getaway

My husband and i thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The host, Berta, was so hospitable. The accommodations were impeccably clean, the soaking tub was wonderful, so much detail was put into the apartment. The garden was beautiful, peaceful and was so enjoyable watching the hummingbirds during the day and hearing the frogs at night. It’s situated in a beautiful neighborhood, close to everything we wanted to do. Would love to stay here again if visiting Vancouver Island.

Very comfortable suite, quiet and clean.It had everything we were looking for ; very comfy bed, living area with tv. We spent so much time exploring the island; we didn’t cook meals there but there was a well stocked kitchen area with microwave , toaster, coffee maker, mini fridge. Absolutely stunning garden area to sit out and enjoy. Host was very easy to communicate with and was a lovely lady. Such a central area for easy access up and down the island. We’ll be back!

Lovely suite in a beautiful neighborhood! The garden and yard were stunning! The entry was private, the bed was comfy and the linens, towels and robes were lovely! A bit of upstairs noise at times and no sink in the kitchenette was a bit challenging but we made it work! Definitely loved having a beautiful spot to land after being out enjoying the beauty of the Cowichan Valley.

Awesome, Beautiful

Our host was extremely nice. The gardens are just beautiful. We had lovely weather which always helps, but it is a lovely place. The suite is extremely clean and well-appointed and the bed was comfy. We would definitely stay here again. Duncan is a fun little town with good restaurants. And….the mountains add to the trip.

My first VRBO experience, and a very positive one

I wanted to be in the Duncan area to connect with a couple of friends in the area. The reviews, price, and location all aligned with what I was looking for. The VRBO suite was comfortable, clean, with all that I needed. The garden area outside the suite was a plus. Berta's directions and text messages were clear and helpful. I highly recommend this place. JD
