Our stay at Paul and Tammy's house was perfect. We came initially to show our kids around Victoria but we thought it would be nice to also enjoy some time around a lake. The house is just 15/20 minutes away from Victoria so it was really easy to access the city. But it was nice to enjoy some relaxing time at the house at the end of the day, especially when you have kids who love to stay outside. The weather didn't allow us to go on the lake but P and T told us we could use the boats and the life jackets so we would definitely love to come back another time to enjoy the lake as well. The view was great and it was nice to see the ducks and the sunset from the dock...we even got to see a bald eagle up close... and the house was surrounded by hummingbirds. Being in that area also allowed us to be close to lots of other really great places such as the Fort Rodd hill lighthouse and the Malahat skywalk. There were so many other cool places to go to around but we didn't have time to explore more. As for the house, it was pristine and super comfortable. The owners really make sure that the guests have everything they need and nothing was missing. Would go back there again and again!!!
