This is a great little place close to Victoria but far enough away to have easy access to points north on highway 1. Everything is neat and clean and all amenities one could need are provided. Donna is very friendly and willing to help with anything you need. I highly recommend Donna's place. Also appreciated is the super easy access to Galloping Goose trail- you could run down the hill, turn left on Island and when you get to the highway 1 meeting point, you're there. It's a little bit of a tricky hill though getting down, so I'd suggest driving to a spot about a kilometer away- turn off on Island, head straight onto highway 1A, then take the first right near where a mechanic shop is. There's parking during daylight hours and you'll be right near the 10-mile marker on the trail. There's also a few other trails nearby, but I haven't studied them as extensively. Overall, a great stay in an outstanding location!
