Relaxing, comfortable and beautiful
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay with you. I had such adventures on the island and returned to a very calm, relaxing and comfortable place away from the crowds. I felt safe and I was able to recharge. The bed was very comfortable. It was great and I thank you very much! Marilyn

You can’t beat aces!
From beginning to end this was a remarkable holiday rental. The peaceful woodsy setting and beautiful cottage were enhanced by ease of entry and the host’s caring communication throughout. If one wants town temptations Sidney and Victoria are but a short drive away. Rentals don’t get better than this. Hated to leave but plan to return. A huge thanks to our host from my daughter and me .

Dreamy French Cottage
This is the most amazing place! It so far exceeded anything we expected. So much thought was given to the smallest, kindest details. The cottage itself and all of the amazing artwork are beautiful. It is a wonderful place to recharge amid all of the creativity - it is inspiring!

A slice of heaven
Cottage is exactly as described if not better. Kitchen is well appointed. Bed was very comfortable. Shower was a dream. Even watched 2 dvds while away. Our stay was cut short by weather mishaps and i truly would have relished an extra day. Close proximity to Victoria, Sydney, hikes, kayaking, the Butchart Gardens, wine and so much more. If we didnt live so far away, i would go back in the next month or two. A plus

Great little weekend getaway!
This little cottage was perfectly isolated from the world, yet close to amenities. The hosts provided great suggestions for local hikes and restaurants. The home was beautifully kept and the kitchen was more than expected for a Vrbo. The countless movie selection and fireplace made the evenings perfect.

Our Butchart getaway
We loved our stay at the comfy French cottage. Very clean, comfortable and Kathleen was very accommodating. The quiet, tucked-away feel was just what we wanted. All while being close to what we came to see. Thank you!

heaven on earth
We both absolutely loved this cottage and the owners. Every bit of it, The location, the surroundings, the interior decor, all the amenities were all perfect. My wife and I both had the same initial thought: "let's just spend our time here and forget sightseeing" We highly recommend this place Ernie and Sheila

Wonderful!
Amazing, cute little (actually big and spacious) cabin! High ceilings, well built and made. Beautiful designs and art inside made by the host. European design that makes you not feel like you’re in Canada. Extremely private and clean. Would totally stay again!!
