Great spot on a couple acres. Perfect for families and our pup loved the yard. Our power briefly went out and the host had messaged us, before I did. Great communication. Close to town- looking forward to visiting again.

Wonderful place! The location is fun and a delightful way to get out of Vancouver cramped living. The kitchen is well-equipped (though for a complex holiday meal you may want to bring specialty items—though I will say, we’d already planned to bring those things but the host reached out proactively to ask if there was anything she should stock the kitchen with). It matched the description extremely well. The host was very responsive on the one question we had and had an immediate solution. The bed was very comfortable. Overall it was probably the best VRBO we’ve ever stayed in.

Such a great place to stay! Great communication with Amanda. Great pet friendly place first place we have stayed in so long that the dogs could be outside fully fenced yard. We could relax and sit by the under covered area and have a fire and listen to pure quietness! Exactly what we needed a getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city!! Super family friendly too hope we can come back with our grandkids. Was a nice surprise travelling all day and coming to such a beautiful home with farm fresh eggs and a few beer! There was also fresh cream in the fridge the one thing I forgot to pick up. We would definately stay here again!!
