Don And Helen were very welcoming and are just lovely people. I was a bit early than agreed, but Helena was cheerfully accommodating. The flat was very clean and bright and provided all the basics necessary for a comfortable stay, including wi-fi and great TV options for down days. The location is really fantastic - the pebble beach is a couple houses down the street facing south across the strait towards the beautiful mountains of the Olympic Peninsula. There are also many running and bicycling options either along the coast or in one of the beautiful provincial parks nearby. I stayed a bit longer than 2 weeks - business and pleasure - so needed a good base. Don even provided a safe place for my bicycle. As a single women I felt very safe and am grateful for their hospitality. Don and Helen have made every effort to ensure a comfortable stay for their guests, even providing a welcome package of juice, milk, and a couple of tasty muffins. The flat is sound proof for sound but not for footsteps, so may be a bother for some. Thanks, Don and Helen, for a great stay!
