Great hosts, great property

Megan and her husband went above and beyond to make our winter stay a hit. From shoveling the driveway to lighting the hot tub for us, nothing but positive reviews

Week stay

Impeccable cottage, great hot tub, quiet. The only suggestion would be new mattresses. Otherwise, excellent experience with a kind and accomodating property manager.

Perfect Getaway House

We loved the house so much! The neighbors were friendly deer and rabbits. The beds were extraordinarily comfy. We enjoyed the hot tub under shooting stars and had a lovely visit from Sherlock too…

About the host

Hosted by Meg

Hello, my name is Meg. I am a Registered Nurse and my husband is a CAF Veteran. We fell in love with island life and moved to Metchosin two years! Like you, we enjoy travelling and have stayed at many different accommodations. We wanted to create a special place to explore the beautiful west coast. We are so excited to welcome you to our little retreat!

Why they chose this property

We were looking for a home to put deep roots to raise our family. We appreciate the value of locally grown food and hope to start a small hobby farm in the future. We adore the slower pace of life in Metchosin; always surrounded by birds singing and plenty of wildlife.

What makes this property unique

There are so many beautiful places to explore year round. We enjoy walking to Matheson lake for a swim in the summer, or stroll down the Galloping Goose. Hiking is endless nearby with beaches (one of our favourites is 5 minutes away; Taylor Beach), waterfalls and trails. East Sooke Park - Iron Mine Bay and Coastal trail are some of our favourites!
