The home is very private on a long driveway back from a quiet residential road. Yet the property is not far to town, and is a quick drive to the market. The 3 bedroom 2 bath house has an excellent view on Brentwood Bay with its own access to the waterfront and dock. The water is cool for swimming but fine with a light wetsuit. There is a good separation of space within the house such that our group of 5 adults could afford wake at different hours without disturbing those sleeping in.
The outside patio was great for bbq and sunset dining. There are 2 large TVs, in bedroom and family room. The bathrooms are modern with Glassdoor showers and a deep tub for soaking. The kitchen is well laid out so that several people can help cook with an island separating the kitchen from the dining area. My whole family gives the home 5 stars and would happily stay again.
In addition to a trip to the BC Museum in Victoria we highly recommend Pacifica Paddle Sports in Swartz Bay or Brentwood Bay for kayaking. Also Victoria Boat rentals in Sidney for rental of a 19 ft power boat.
