Lovely home in a nice quiet area. Would not recommend for families with small children due to the drop off in the small back yard. Very convenient to Butchart Gardens.

Response from VrboOwner on 24 July 2025
Hi everyone and thank you for staying. A few weeks before your stay a welcome note with check in instructions is sent out. In those instructions along with the check in details, the following is shared. "There is a lower yard with a path down to it, however there is a sharp drop off that could be a potential for a fall. Also please watch when driving in and out of the property because, there are often children playing on the street below, and sometimes on the drive way itself. Your safety is very important to me. Wishing everyone the best of luck and good health. Thanks

Family vacation

Our stay here was good, the house is very spacious and was a great area and a great space for our family of 6 to spend time together. It was very easy to navigate to and from Victoria and attractions. Communication with the host was easy and timely. Based on the online description it says 4 bedrooms, however the fourth bedroom is actually the living area with a sofa bed.

Response from VrboOwner on 10 Aug 2025
Hello everyone, my. sincere apologies, I checked the listing and it did state that there was a fourth bedroom. This is a 3 bedroom home. There is a hide a bed in the family room, on the main floor. The listing has been changed to accurately reflect this.
