Summary: This is a true gem. The location cannot be beat for a forest getaway. The swimming hole nearby was definitely a highlight. The cabin is comfortable and well stocked with items. It has a rustic feel to it. We had an amazing time staying there and I would happily return! * there is a couple things on the description that is a touch misleading- it is only 3 bedrooms, not 4. The fourth "bedroom" is the living room with couches and a TV in the photos. It has doors on it so it can be private and the couch is comfortable enough to sleep on, but in my opinion that doesnt count as a bedroom. Also there is no AC. The bottom floor is cool becuse of geothermal temperature control, but the upstairs (which has the kitchen and dining area) does get warm as it just had the fan to cool it off. Not sure why the listing had an AC icon in the ammenities. That doesnt take away from what a wonderful place it is, its just worth noting for your planning. The outdoor play space is a wonderful touch.We really enjoyed the trampoline and outdoor living room. Some of the kids play equiptment needs some TLC but there is lots of great stuff there. If you want a rustic getaway in nature, dont hesitate on this place.

Summary: A great location to get out of the city and enjoy nature. Within walking distance to two beautiful spots by the Koksilah river and nearby to Shawnigan Lake. Kiki was prompt with responding and we had no issues during our stay.

Summary: The property was lovely! A fun outdoor area to hang around at and let the kids run around. What I didn’t like was the fact that there was no privacy and the host doesn’t state that they will be on the property while you are there. Also didn’t like that they advertised that there was a hot tub and to my surprise there was no hot tub at all. The whole reason I booked it was because of the hot tub. There was minimal supervision on the hosts kids in the evening time so when I was trying to enjoy family time and sit by the fire the kids stared at us while we tried to enjoy family time. Over all place was nice and clean and a really nice area away from cell reception.

Summary: Great spot! You'll read mixed reviews on the location/accommodations. But if you read what Kiki offers, it's exactly that. Essentially we knew what we were getting into and it was a perfect and peaceful get a way. We had 2 kids, my husband and I and my mother in law. We had plenty of space for everyone to have their own room and then some. Lots of outside space for kids, along with toys and play equipment. We spent our days in Victoria and as north as Sidney. It is a bit of a drive, but it was worth it for the space and accommodations. There is no way we would have found the same accommodations closer to the City. Would 100% stay here again.

Summary: Totally away from the loud bustle of any town. Peace, privacy and back to nature. For that you give up cell phone service; but you can still text...so, perfect! Helping nature by using solar power; you MUST be consious of turning off lights, tv, etc. Bit of a drive to get anywhere..So, over all. Small price to pay for get back to nature experience

Summary: For 6 adults and two babies, this cabin in the woods type home was fantastic! Kiki was so welcoming, and the location was a lovely home away from home. Lots to do for the kids outside (lots of space and toys), and both a big fire pit and small propane- fire pit for the adults. The area is about 10-15min to Shawnigan Lake, which is fantastic for swimming and enjoying summer days or there's a watering hole a few minutes up the road to enjoy! Kiki was incredibly responsive and helpful to any questions or needs we had. Beware - there are two enormously cute, friendly and cuddly fur babies onsite (dogs) which while all of us are dog lovers, if you're not, these two adorable dogs will melt your heart if you get to meet them! ♥️☺️ Thanks Kiki!

Summary: We had the pleasure of hosting a birthday party at this cabin and it had everything we needed and more. From a fully equipped house, comfortable sleeping quarters with ample space for extra guests to camp in tents. It's a 2 minute walk down to the river, and tons of property for kids and dogs to play outside. This was a mixed group of adults and kids who hadn't been able to celebrate in about 5 years together, so as expected a bit more noise and excitement happened but we had lots of space inside and out for people to play games, talk and relax. We spent evenings around the campfire, and days down at the river. BBQ was a main cooktop for all guests and we left there feeling recharged and grateful for the time spent together. Kiki was a great host, and even though she and her family live on site it was not a distruption to our celebrations whatsoever. We cannot wait to bring family and friends alike back to this hidden gem spot!

Summary: Super cozy and homely place with all the amenities and supplies we could possibly need. The chickens and dogs on the property were a bonus for the kids. The owners family who live on site are very friendly and readily available to answer any question. Totally our style of rental property, and we enjoyed visiting the many towns and tourist attractions nearby, we will be back!
