We had such a lovely stay! Loved being on the water - my toddler girls (2 and 4) loved the hot tub and jetted bathtub and wanted to go down to the water (rocky beach) every day. We took the paddleboards and kayaks out and jumped off the dock. We used it as a home base to explore the region - Butchart gardens, butterfly gardens, local farm stands/wineries/cideries, ferry to Salt Spring Island, glass beach and acquarium in Sidney, etc. We only made it into downtown Victoria twice (30 minutes away), and not a ton within walking distance, but overall it worked out great for us!
