Great place to stay. Slip Z was quiet and away from all other houses in this area so it was very peaceful. Plenty of places to go within an hour drive. Caught fish off the back deck. Highly recommend this place.

Bev met us when we arrived and showed us all the amenities. Also provided thoughtful list of restaurants. The houseboat was unique experience. Whether it be enjoying watching an otter fish just in front of the edge of the house where I was sat or being able to kayak from the house around caterpillar island. Slept very peacefully.

Fun and relaxing houseboat

The house has everything you need to enjoy a peaceful getaway in nature. It is secluded and private. Bev was so generous with boats and everything we needed to have an amazing time on the river.

We had such a lovely stay. Being at the end of the dock gives you a sense that there is no one else around. You feel like you are in nature, the Eagle swooping down and catching fish right before our eyes was unreal. The house was comfortable and clean. We would stay here again for sure.

Spring Break

Bev and Lloyd were the perfect hosts. They were perfectly accomadating and the property was one of a kind. Life on a marina for a week was so much fun we decided we want to retire on one!

Great Experience

Something to do for everyone. We spent time on the kayaks, SUP's, and the pedal boat all supplied by Kadow's Marina. When not on the water the kids enjoyed fishing from the dock for hours, watching the deer, otters, and osprey catch fish. Would recommend this stay!

Riverfront Heaven

Loved this property. Lloyd and Bev go above and beyond with communication and assistance if it is required. House is lovely as is the view. Wish we'd have been there in warmer weather but will have to come back for that so we can further enjoy the river.

Wonderful weekend

Hosts Bev and Lloyd were over and above incredible! This was a girls weekend with our teenage daughters and slip Z was just as advertised, peaceful and at the end of a row of slips. You feel like your own private section where our group could paddle, kayak and sit by the fire. We truly felt welcomed and blessed to have spent the weekend at such a special location! Thank you Bev and Lloyd for a great experience. We will be back!

Peaceful Paradise

I knew I would be heading into a challenging decision in my life, so I wanted to find something on the water to visit with local Vancouver friends and just be in a quiet, peaceful place while I navigated some changes. We spent hours on the deck just listening to the birds and frogs and visiting. I plan to come back regularly. This place will always have special memories for me. Bev was outstanding, an amazing host, and very sweet to check on me. :)

Great Stay!

Thank you to our great host Bev and Lloyd. Lloyd met my brother and his family and transported all of their "stuff" on the boat saving them time at check in. The house was great! The kids thought there where ghosts that were opening the drawers in the kitchen, HA!! That is what happens when your house is on the water. My family had a great time catching fish off the dock and looking for the otters. House was well stocked with linens and kitchen items. A great place for my family to gather that was close to our parents, but not a stuffy hotel.

What an amazing Get-Away!

This is a unique and spectacular rental. Bev and Lloyd were such helpful and responsive hosts. It’s clear they love sharing their space and want the best for their guests. We stayed during a storm and weren’t able to explore the beach or use the kayaks so we will be back! Their art and studio is simply amazing, the house boat is spacious and beautiful, comfy, cozy and well planned for a large group. This was my families favorite get-away, we arrived right after a major snow and ice-storm and the hosts went above and beyond to make our stay happen. We enjoyed a fire on the covered porch and hope to do the same in the summer after swimming right off the deck!

This place was terrific for us - well stocked kitchen, lots of towels, hot water, and above all the river right at the door. We really appreciated the portable fire pit on the deck as we sat next to it even in the rain. Saw huge flocks of Canada geese migrating, a resident Great Blue Heron, and more. lloyd was a great host and kept me informed when the power went out (we were at a movie during the windstorm). Everything was very clean and there was plenty of room for our stuff. It is a very long walk from the ramp to the unit and there's no internet in the house, though it's available in the art gallery. We used personal hotspots fine. We would have loved to use the kayaks but alas the weather was uncooperative. All in all we would definitely stay there again.

Tranquility on a river with wildlife sightings, kayaks and paddle boards included made for a tremendous vacation. Bev and Lloyd, the hosts, couldn’t have been kinder or more accommodating. Communications were above and beyond with activity and food recommendations that for us perfectly. The house is well appointed and we lacked for nothing. Comfortable beds, a cozy living room where we played lots of cards, a kitchen that is perfectly equipped, cool AC for the unexpected heat wave, and the best hot water in the very clean bathrooms. We sat on the back porch with coffee in the morning enjoying the river and peace. Close enough to the city for amenities, but far enough that we found peace and quiet.

Quiet and Relaxing Place to Stay

We stayed at Slip Z for a staff retreat. It was the perfect blend of quiet relaxation and staff development time. The hosts are super to work with and gave us our space to enjoy the time while there. The kayaks were a fun distraction from work and the house is very clean, the kitchen well stocked and the beds comfortable. I would definitely stay there again when I'm in the area.
