Host was super communicative and gave excellent directions to the house. The house was exactly as described and a perfect fit for our group of 8 family members (we rented both upper and lower suites). Everyone was comfortable and it was great to visit together while we attended a family member's wedding in Saanich. Really homey and a great place to stay. Close to a nice park (one block away) so kids could play, and adults had good run in the morning to local public beach. Highly recommend this house for a big, family group.
