Peaceful comfort for water lovers
Quiet, clean, and super comfortable place. Beautiful views from the primary bedroom, no windows in the 2nd bedroom and it’s off the kitchen so not especially private but just fine for my 9yo twins who don’t mind sharing a bed. Beds were so comfy, I slept 9-14 hours every night. Lovely to sit outside on the deck or the dock, and swimming off the dock was EXCEPTIONAL; I’m an avid open water swimmer and enjoyed it so much. Clean, clear, perfect refreshing temps. The lake bottom isn’t nice, it’s rocky and mushy - so it’s best for kids that will wear life jackets or can swim in water over their heads. Jumping off the dock was so much fun and they have beautiful and safe stairs for getting in and out. 2 paddle boards! 4 kayaks! So much to explore! Julie and Gio are charming and friendly hosts who really respected our privacy and were always on call for anything we needed.

A beautiful home away from home
Julie and Gio are wonderful people and fantastic hosts! We greatly enjoyed our stay in their two bedroom, 1 bathroom suite. We spent a lot of time swimming from their dock, and enjoying the kayaks and paddle boards that they provide for their guests to use. They even took us on a boat tour of the lake, which we greatly appreciated. Thank you Gio and Julie! The house is situated on Stirling Arm and the location is incredibly beautiful. The water is so clear and inviting. We settled in quickly and felt very comfortable. It was perfect for our family of 3. We feel very thankful that we had the opportunity to enjoy a week in their suite in August.

Relaxing Retreat
Our family had an amazing time! Julie and Gio were gracious hosts and went out of their way to make us feel welcome and provide information about local activities. The property itself is beautiful and location on the lake was wonderful. We enjoyed lounging on the dock and taking the kayaks out on the lake. Would not hesitate to book this property again.

Sproat Lake 2 BR
The apartment is a beauty. First class construction, super clean. There's a sunny deck looking over Sprout Lake. It's one of the best swimming lakes I've been in (early September) with a large party/swimming dock on the lake. Separate entrance and parking area. We really enjoyed meeting the owners - they are nearby and helpful but not intrusive. Would come back in a minute.

Fantastic Property & Wonderful Hosts
Julie and Gio are kind and accommodating hosts, and their suite is the perfect place to get away with family. The suite is full of thoughtful touches and we were never left in need of anything. The location feels private and secluded, but it is close enough to Port Alberni that all amenities are close by.
