To put it quite simply, Christy’s place is amazing. The renovated barn is a gem.
Location:
The barn is located in an area that puts you within 10-20 minutes of most of Victoria’s attractions, but also in a location that is not overcrowded with other people. It is secluded enough that you don’t feel like you’re “on-top” of the people next to you as if you were in a hotel or apartment. For specific reference, it took us about 20 minutes, with traffic, to get into downtown Victoria; 5 minutes to Elk’s Lake park (I think I got that right); 20 minutes to the ferry landing; and 5-7 minutes to a grocery store, food, etc. In short, it is a great location.
Amenities:
First of all, everything is top-notch. The kitchen is fully stocked with pots, pans, and utensils for anything you need to cook a meal in if you wanted to. The TV is easy to use, with Netflix available. A comfy couch and two theater-style recliners make relaxing and watching TV great. And, the part my kids loved the most... the ping pong table! I had to pull them off of it to get them to leave!
Beds:
The beds are very comfortable, and we slept a family of five easily.
Overall:
Christy greeted us shortly after we arrived, even though we arrived a little later than expected. She was super friendly, and she gave us great pointers on things to do in the area. To be honest, I was amazed at this awesome renovated barn. It was clean, well kept, and perfect for my family of five.
