Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
From our house, you can walk to shops and restaurants as well as to lovely hiking
trails. I walk my dog off leash in a little greenway 2 mins from my home.
It is also minutes from Grouse Mountain or Capilano Canyon and local beaches.
The area has many bike trails which can be flat, rolling or for mountain biking.
We are near the Lion’s Gate bridge; 10 minutes from downtown Vancouver via car or bus.
It’s also a 5 min. drive to the waterfront/harbour where you can take the “Seabus” across to downtown Vancouver in 13 mins.
We are close to the Trans Canada Highway which gives you access to Whistler (1.5 hour drive) and the ferries to Vancouver Island (15 mins drive to the ferry terminal).
The US border is 1 hour south.

Our home exchange - here are our Preferences and House Rules
Thank you for your interest in our home.
Please note that our dates are somewhat flexible.
Cleanliness & lack of clutter is important to us. We would leave your home clean & neat and expect the same.
Having respect for our neighbours & furnishings/belongings is key.
Happy to continue using your housekeeper every other week as you would mine and would love to have your dog but sorry no cats. Our dog Lenny will travel with us.
Life happens (accidents/issues) so open communication and transparency is important.
Thank you!
