Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

Large upper two floors (4,000sq/ft) of our family home. Very child friendly, 4 bedrooms, on ten acres of forest. 10 minute drive to amazing beaches, 12 minutes to nearest shops. Gorgeous views of downtown Victoria, watch the cruise ships come in! Our parents live in the ground level suite, and are used to kids banging around above them. Collect eggs for breakfast from our 17 resident hens, if you're interested in helping care for them while you're here. :) Only heat is wood burning, lots of firewood provided.

Our Preferences

Our home exchange - here are our Preferences and House Rules

Absolutely no smoking or pets, sorry. This is not a five star resort, this is more an authentic West Coast experience. If you want to get away and connect with nature, or visit the island to explore with kids, this is the place for you. Our house is big and relaxed, but a bit rough around the edges. We have a complex water system and no bath tubs, so only quick-normal length showers. Wood heat only. Stunning views = high up, some drop off areas around the ten acres. We also have a small pond. Working property means we have some heavy equiptment around like excavators and dump trucks. Lots of space for kids to bike and dig in the dirt, sandbox and zipline, and adorable chickens. This is not a party house.
