The quietness and great sea views were great for the soul. We can highly recommend their home for visitors around the world. Loved Parksville and Qualicum Beach, nearby golf courses and great wine tasting opportunities close by. And you always have to visit Butchart Gardens at any time of the year. The island has endless possibilities year round. Our thanks to Pat and Alex and we hope we mwill meet one day.

Descrizione della casa che offriamo

Hiking trails through forests and up small mountains abound. The ocean is a 10 min. walk away and there are lakes nearby for water sports. When you get tired of having fun, relax on one of our 3 decks or 2 patios with a glass of local wine and enjoy the ocean, flora, fauna and our Bald Eagles and Humming Birds.
