Kirk and Danette's home had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. The little details make a lot of difference... little things like candy in each room, new tissue boxes...and even the way they had the washcloths folded and placed in lovely trays in each room showed that they have pride in this home. OH! And there were fresh flowers on the dining table! Kirk and Danette accommodated any extra need we had without a problem. We LOVED that they had gorgeous golden yolk eggs waiting in the refrigerator along with milk, butter and beautiful bread when we got there. It meant even more to us because we got into town very late that night with 4 very tired kids and didn't have to go back out to grab breakfast food for the next morning. The property is about a 20+ minute drive to Victoria where there were limitless things to do. There was also a fun beach town called Sidney, which was closer. There were many restaurants and cute boutiques in Sidney. We enjoyed a local restaurant called Fish on 5th while there...try the fried pickles! There was a little rocky beach in Sidney with TONS of sea glass...I mean SEAGLASS FOR DAYS...and it wasn't overcrowded with people. We found seaglass and broken dishes/pottery which had been weathered and softened by the sand and waves. We spent quite a bit of time on that little beach. We enjoyed our time in the area and only wish we would have had more time to enjoy the sights and sounds.
