Amazing home with an equally amazing view. Quiet getaway on a beautiful island. Home was perfect for our group of friends. Loved sitting each morning with coffee looking out over the water. Will definitely be back!
We spent 3 lovely nights at this property. The house was comfortable and well equipped. We enjoyed the hot tub as well as evenings by the fire. Easy and prompt communication with the owner to answer any questions. Would be happy to return in the future!
We had a great 5 days on Pender Island. The bed was comfortable and the house was great. We had some trouble with the door code, but there was an actual key we could use. Communication was fast and easy.
Multi generational family getaway on a perfect weekend. The house had everything we needed and was an easy drive to all our favourite places on the island. The hot tub was a nice addition to other places we’ve stayed.
Great place overlooking the water! It was a lovely house in a quiet setting. We could have sat on the deck all day but we did get out to explore the cute coffee shops and go for walks in the parks!
Great view, very well equipped and furnished tastefully. The architecture is superb and the loft is a great addition. Nothing has been forgotten for the guests' comfort.
Peaceful and spacious. The deck is phenomenal. We enjoyed our stay. The hot tub was a treat too! Host was prompt with communication and everything went smoothly!
We had a very enjoyable time staying at this beautiful home. The views are spectator, The house is well appointed and had everything we needed. The island provided us with great hiking, kayaking, views of wild life off the front deck, and lovely weather.
Loved staying here. Great views of the ocean, quiet, close adjacent to Mt Norman trail, and really interesting house design. Also enjoyed each evening in the hot tub! Host was super responsive and friendly. Thanks Mike!
We absolutely loved our stay at this property. The house was extremely well stocked, the location was great and the view was incredible. We sat out in the hot tub every night and looked at the stars. Our favourite thing was watching all of the wildlife right in our back yard. We will be back!
This was by far one of the most well stocked rentals I have ever stayed at. Mike was awesome… there was an issue worth the hot tub and he sorted it out within a day. Great place to stay… I highly recommend it!
Very well situated to enjoy all that Pender has to offer; quiet, green, ocean view, trails. The house is well appointed and maintained- very comfortable,
Such a beautiful house, wood beams and floors. 3 bedrooms. Very well stocked kitchen, hot tub was hot. Wood stove well stocked with dry wood. Lots of hooks everywhere for coats, clothes, towels and more. East communication with owner.
A very comfortable and enjoyable home!!!
This was our third stay in this beautiful house. Pender Island is so relaxing. When the afternoons were warm, we sat on the long veranda to read and enjoy the view. Bumblebees busily collected nectar and pollen from the lavender plants outside the kitchen. Deer stopped by when the sun set to feast on salal berry bushes. I enjoyed cooking. The kitchen is well-equipped and the Tru Value grocery store is well stocked for its size. We enjoyed spending time on the beach at Gowlland Point and climbing Mount Norman! Improvements since our earlier trips include much faster WiFi speed and the installation of gripper strips on some of the steps outside. Those provide a much-needed visual break on cloudy days that will help to prevent tripping.We appreciate this beautiful and restful retreat!

Beautiful House, Magnificent View
Perfect spot for a romantic getaway or a more social vacation. The house has an ideal location in a quiet part of the island, but close enough to all amenities. The kitchen is fully set up with more appliances than we expected, and it was new, clean, and beautifully appointed. Dealing with Mike was great; he responds quickly to any questions and made the entire process easy. We'll be back.

We were very pleased with the accommodations: it looked exactly like the photos that were posted. The house was clean, organized, and welcoming. We enjoyed the hot tub and the wood stove in the evenings. The books, games, and movies were a nice touch. The view was spectacular and the location very private and peaceful. The owner was very helpful while we were planning our trip. We enjoyed many hikes and kayaking. We enjoyed eating at the Hope Cafe and the Sushi restaurant. We would recommend this property to other people.

Thank you very much for the positive review. I'm pleased you and your family enjoyed the house and all of the amenities. I hope to see you again in the future!
Cheers, Mike
This was a wonderful spot with all the amenities. The view from the deck is spectacular, and the property had no neighbours. We drove to get to places to kayak and bike. For spectacular hiking, we walked out the back door and hiked up Mount Norman. There is construction which closes the road to south Pender (beyond our driveway) from 10 am to 2pm. As it turned out, this was not really a big deal at all. This did not impede our ability to go to North Pender, and we did go to the end of South Pender once to see Brooks Point. The host is easily available and very responsive. We would love to return to this place!

Why they chose this property
On a Mother's Day trip to Pender, we fell in love with the beauty and peacefulness of the Island. We enjoy exploring the numerous beaches and coves. In 2003 we built our dream home. We love to escape the busy city whenever we can to recharge!
What makes this property unique
We built this house on a rocky ridge to capture the spectacular views. We love the post and beam structure with lots of windows and skylights to let the sunlight in. Our favourite time is enjoying coffee on the deck watching the sun come up in the morning, and boats sailing by.
