This house is amazing and in the most beautiful location. It's even better than it looks in the listing. I stayed there with my family and another family and there was loads of room for the 8 of us. The layout of the house worked really well for 2 families with 2 bedrooms and a bathroom on the top floor and the same again in the basement. The kids loved the park right opposite the house and the grown ups could keep an eye on them from the living room! The location was perfect for exploring Vancouver - we could walk to Granville Island using the Sea Wall (about 15 minutes) and there were buses into Downtown from Cornwall (a couple of minutes from the house - save your coins as they only accept coin payment on the bus!). We hired bikes from the rental place by Granville Island that Claire recommends and cycled around Stanley Park and back round False Creek which was great for the family. Safeway is a bit of a hike up the hill, but still only 10-15 minutes walk away. There are lots of options for eating out and deliveries. The Boathouse opposite the house was excellent and very accommodating for children that didn't like what was on the menu. We had a fantastic Greek meal delivered from the Taverna opposite Safeway. It was really handy having the washing machine and tumble dryer and the kitchen was very well equipped. Claire was an excellent host and very accommodating. We had a plumbing issue on our second day and Claire arranged for a plumber to come out the same day (we were out during the day so she even arranged for the plumber to come in the evening). I have no hesitation in recommending this house. We are so happy that we opted to stay here rather than in 2 hotel apartments in Downtown - it really did make an amazing holiday the perfect holiday.
