Our stay at the River House was everything we expected it to be and more. The suite had everything that we needed for our family of 4 with a dog. It was very clean and has a nice layout with a lovely porch to watch the chickens and ducks wander around. The kitchen had everything we wanted including a blender to make smoothies. When we needed a coffee grinder, Laura lent us hers so we could grind our beans for our stay. My husband and I both worked from the River House while our kids went to camp in Sooke. The internet was great, even for teleconferences and video conferences. The location was also perfect for us, with the Galloping Goose trial right out the back door. We were able to take the dog for walks and also access trails for bike rides and runs. We stayed here for the convenience so our kids were close to camp, but we ended up having a holiday and we definitely will be back.
