Great place! The cottage is private and secluded, which is exactly what we wanted. Check-in was smooth. We parked on the gravel driveway next to the main house, then walked the short path through their beautiful backyard to the cottage. The open layout is very welcoming and flooded with natural light! (Thankfully, the bedrooms are equipped with blackout shades to prevent the early summer sunrise from waking us up too soon.) Amenities are great… well stocked kitchen and lots of towels in the bathroom. Even the tap water tastes good! The location was perfect for us, between Brentwood Bay and downtown Victoria.
As it turned out, our 3-night stay was during a weeklong heat wave in British Columbia. After a full day of activities in the summer sun, we looked forward to relaxing at the cottage with a bowl of ice cream. We also enjoyed using the propane bbq for a quiet and laid back dinner. Vancouver Island is beautiful and the cottage is great home base. We hope to come back in the future.
