The views were amazing! The wild life was spectacular. Eagles, seal fed in the Sooke basin right under the deck one late afternoon. We took the Whale watching tour in Sooke. We were able to see Humpback and Orcas feeding in San Juan De Fuca Straight. We’ll be back!

Lovely property with amazing views

Cozy yet spacious property with breathtaking views of Sooke basin from most rooms and many different outdoor areas. Kitchen was well stocked and all the beds were comfortable. Great location for accessing the area attractions (coastal hikes, sooke potholes, ziplining) as well as Victoria. Kayaks are best accessed at high tide otherwise it could be tricky getting into them. Lots of steps down to water so if one has mobility/stamina issues, they may find the the lower levels of the property including the water difficult to access. Very clean and well appointed, still maintaining a unique feel.

Beautiful veiw

Very clean accommodations. House was perfect for our four night stay in July. I think this part of town was a great place for our first time to Vancouver Island. So many cool places to check out around Sooke. We enjoyed it very much. Thanks for having us.

Ideal stay

Wonderful property- exactly what we needed and were hoping for. Great helpful hosts. Plenty to do at the property and surrounding areas. Two small negatives: 1. It’s a pity the property only sleeps 4. (The cot beds are really only suitable for really small kids). 2. We were really keen to try out the kayaks but the pontoon was a bit too complicated to use for beginners. But these are tiny things and not enough to stop us having a great week. Looking forward to coming again.

Was my Moms 85th Bday.... so much to do and see here! I wish our weather was better but being able to look out to the water and nature around us was great. So much space and areas to hang out... we didn’t take advantage as much as we should have. Great for families and being outside.
