My family and I (five adults, three children (16,12,8) stayed at the property Thanksgiving week, 2025. We were very pleased with the property in that it met all of our needs. The house easily accommodated the eight of us in terms of number of bedrooms, beds and bathrooms. The house was warm and it was quiet at night. (We had concerns because one side of the house fronts on a fairly busy street.) The kitchen had more than ample dishes, silverware, cooking utensils, pots, pans, skillets, coffee makers, etc. Appliances were very new and worked flawlessly. The host was very responsive to any of our inquiries and graciously provided additional Nespresso "cups" when we ran out and were unable to find them locally. The property is on the "west side", more particularly, the Kitsilano area, so it is about a 20 minute drive to downtown, Gastown, Yaletown, and Granville Island. I note that the property has an outdoor seating area and grill but November did not lend itself to using that part of the property. All in all, we enjoyed our stay in Vancouver and the house certainly added to that enjoyment.

A great location for a fun city
House was great for a stay involving two grandparents, two couples, and the two kids from each of the couples. The kitchen well stocked & suitable for 4-5 people cooking & eating at the counter. The frige was big enough for the food we bought & leftovers brought from restaurants. The formal living room, family room & dining room allowed space for people to spread out & do different things. We never used the gas grill but the gas fire pit was great for evening s'mores and visiting. Kids enjoyed the hockey net & basketball hoop.The master bedroom was plenty large, w great bathroom, shower & soaking tub, although I think there was a shortage of drawers for clothes storage. Two other upstairs bedrooms had a "Jack & Jill" bathroom that worked well for the 4 kids. The middle upstairs bedroom had en suite bathroom but also had the laundry area, so doing laundry took coordination with the couple in that room. There was also a downstairs bedroom that had a work desk in it, which was handy for the couple in that room, since they were working remotely while on vacation.The only notable shortcoming of the house was the lack of AC. There were plenty of fans, but it took awhile for the bedrooms to cool down at night, although by morning all were quite comfortable.Location was great. Many restaurants & stores w/in 5-15 minute walk through nice neighborhoods. All main Vancouver attractions w/in 20-30 minutes drive except during rush hour. Would recommend for others.

Post cruise vacation weekend
Lovely large home in great Vancouver neighborhood. Our group enjoyed our stay following an Alaska cruise adventure.A few things to note - there are signs of use about the house and property. A number of items merit repair and/or replacement (dishwasher, pull out couch, wine fridge, outside bannister). Owner does gave an onsite office and family makes a number of appearances. Also, previous renter filled garbage and recycling which created an overflow.Owner was very nice and communicated well. House accommodated our part size well.

Our family stayed here for our son’s wedding. The property was perfect in every way. We had 8 of us plus our 2 grand babies and the house was perfect. Clean and beautiful. The kitchen had everything we needed. We were able to host a night before gathering with permission thanks to the owner. The outdoor area was key and everything was perfect. We would recommend this place and definitely would come back. The location is close to everything. A close walk to shops and coffee shops. Brilliant!

BEAUTIFUL HOME IN GREAT LOCATION
This was the perfect home to accommodate our family of 10 and not feel crowded. It was clean, beds comfy, check in was a breeze and our host Jamie was the best.
Had a large well stocked kitchen and dining room that gave us plenty of seating to enjoy our dinners prepared on the grill. Backyard is amazing, again with plenty of seating and fantastic gas fire pit for cool evenings. Great location with restaurants, shops and beach all within walking distant and easy access to the city.
We loved our stay at this home and all that Vancouver has to offer. Would definitely recommend.
