The host was quick in responding to my inquiry so I can finalize my last minute 2 day trip for two family total 7 people (4 adults and 3 kids).The place was very homey as pictured. Everyone love the island kitchen table where we prep our food and dine around the table. It would be a dream come true if there are stools or chairs so we can sit dining around the kitchen island table.We will definitely rebook and refer our friends to consider this homey house.Sadly we have to leave broken hearted as everyone grew so fond of this loving home.In closing, thank you for giving us the opportunity to fullfill our trip at this wonderfull loving home. A place we want to return again and again.

About the host

Hosted by Kian Pakdel

Host profile image
I was born in Iran and later made Canada my home in 2012, with a chapter living in France along the way. I come from a culture where hospitality is truly at the heart of everyday life—welcoming guests, sharing space, and making others feel comfortable is something deeply valued.

Carrying that tradition with me, I genuinely enjoy hosting and creating a space where guests can relax and feel at home. For me, your comfort and enjoyment are just as important as my own, and I take pride in making sure every stay feels warm, easy, and memorable.

I purchased this property two years ago and quickly fell in love with its peaceful atmosphere. One of my favorite hobbies is gardening, and I’ve been thoughtfully adding to the garden, especially with fruit trees. It’s an ongoing and rewarding project that reflects both where I come from and the life I’ve built here in Canada—bringing together different parts of my story in a place I’m proud to call home. I’m always happy to share this space and its peaceful setting with my guests.

Why they chose this property

This neighborhood is wonderfully peaceful, green, and family-oriented—everything I was looking for. There’s a calm, welcoming feeling here that makes it easy to unwind.

What I especially appreciate is how quiet and private the property feels. The home is set back on a long private driveway, which creates a natural buffer from the street, neighbors, and even other buildings on the property. Because of this, you won’t hear noise from traffic, nearby homes, or outdoor activity—it’s a very calm and restful environment.

Surrounded by mature trees and greenery, you can still enjoy the beauty of nature, like birds in the trees, while having the comfort of a truly quiet and relaxing stay.

What makes this property unique

This home offers a rare balance of privacy, comfort, and connection to nature. It’s a fully detached house with no shared walls, giving you a quiet and private indoor experience.

The property includes a backyard that is shared with another building on the lot, but the space still feels very private. The home has its own private driveway and entrance, along with two dedicated parking spots exclusively for guests, so your stay feels independent and convenient from the moment you arrive.

Because the house is set back from the street and thoughtfully positioned on the property, you can enjoy a peaceful atmosphere with very little disturbance. Inside, the home is both spacious and comfortable, designed to give you room to relax while having everything you need during your stay.

What truly makes it special is the connection to the outdoors—you can enjoy views of the garden from inside. The bedroom overlooks flowers and greenery, creating a calm and refreshing environment.
