The location was superb. Walking down to the beach was so easy. The windows allowed for the bright sunshine to be part of our day, all the time! Toby is very helpful, providing advice and suggestions. Local walks were lovely. Saw deer, herons, eagles. A great place to get away and have a relaxing, quiet vacation.

The vacation home in Vesuvius was a charming seaside house (built I'm guessing in the 1930s) across a lane from the ocean and a beautiful beach. The house contains two good size bedrooms, a large living room and a well laid out kitchen which is bright and came fully equipped for a comfortable stay. It is a short distance from Ganges, the major centre of island activity. Perfect for exploring beaches, hiking and enjoying the artist vibe the Island is known for. The owner is friendly and helpful. We'll stay there again if we return to Saltspring Island. Highly recommended.

Quaint, charming, very (very) close to the beach. Loved the "Sand Dollar" viewing/eating area directly across the street. We brought our wine and food there every night.

A great stay! Toby was very quick to respond to any questions throughout our stay, he made us feel very welcome here. It was a gorgeous stay across from the ocean for a very fair price compared to others in the area! The place was spotless when we arrived. The house is so beautiful and full of character. We would gladly visit again. Thanks Toby!

Very cute cottage with beautiful stain glass everywhere adding to the quaint beauty of the place. The proximity to the swimming beach is convenient and makes it easy to hang out there and come back for forgotten items or meals.On a side note, the acoustics are wonderful and made playing guitar and singing especially enjoyable.
