About the host

Hosted by Ellie Harvie

Host profile image
Rob grew up in Qualicum Beach. When our son was 7 we started vactioning here every summer. He is now 18 and we just bought this spot. We plan to retire here one day. We currently work in Vancouver. But we get to the Island as often as we can.

Why they chose this property

This is an oceanside property. That pretty much says it all. Getting to know the tides, the herons that perch on the rocks on the beach, is wonderful. At sunset, on high tide we take the paddleboards to our private raft (althought the locals do use is when we are not on it) and we watch the sunset. It is an amazing location.

What makes this property unique

This is fully licenced. It is a whole house with a fenced yard and electic gated driveway.
