What a terrific spot!! The pictures can not capture the feeling you have the second you step on the porch and look out at the water. The property is beautiful. There are some stairs to go to and from the car but they were not challenging.
We took the ferry from Brentwood Bay and had lunch at the Seahorse Cafe where we also purchased snacks for breakfast. Having teens they insisted on dinner in Victoria which seemed to be a short drive, 20-25 minutes? Very easy access from the house to 17.
After dinner the teens enjoyed the hot tub. There were hot tub towels available as well as bath towels. If we used too many we could have just used the washer and dryer. The kitchen is fully stocked to make meals.
The next morning it took 10 min to get to Butchart Gardens. It is always worth getting there by 9am. After returning to Saras we were hungry. Ah a glass of BC Viognier and lunch next door couldn’t have been better. The kids were ready to kayak. We had a question or two and Sara and her spouse texted back immediately and gave extra ideas for activities off their dock. The swim vests and kayaks were all free. If you want a double kayak there are rentals available two doors down. I decided to just read my book on the dock while occasionally looking up to watch the ferry come and go.
That evening the kids wanted to return to Victoria and when I mentioned one was a vegan Sara sent me a few suggestions for dinner. Had my spouse also joined me on this trip we would have grilled out and had a bottle of wine and never left the property.
We will definitely be returning. It is clean, stocked, has great hosts, and easy access to local attractions. Look no further.
