We were very comfortable in the Chief suite. It had everything we needed and the bed was very comfortable! We also appreciated being able to bring our dog. Thanks for a great stay and all of the advice regarding restaurants in the area.

Photos looked lovely but even so, they do not do justice to this AMAZING spot. Delightful to be on the bay in this protected nook. Perfect.

Absolutely lovely property. Very refreshing to arrive at a rental property and have it actually look identical to the photos. I will definitely be back!

Beautiful view, peaceful setting, very comfortable (firm) bed, excellent modern kitchen and clean well-maintained bathroom, great amenities. Had everything I needed and more. Decor was a little odd and needs to be updated, but otherwise one of the nicest places I’ve ever stayed.

The place was awesome, the host communicated on how to enter in the property and everything worked out. When we came in everything was super organized and ready to use. Plenty of amenities and a great view to the water. The Kitchen is full of items and good to go. The host has very attention to details. We loved our stay.

While remote, adorable! Previous email before arrival could have provided more details since remote. Silly things such as, a hair dryer provided, and a Braun coffee maker, how to turn on the gas fireplace. Bit frustrating. Gping to forward helpful suggestions l

We were a travelling pair. And when you enter into your accommodations and you smile, that puts you off to a really great start to every activity you do, and look forward to "going home".
The views are spectacular. The water fowl, sun rises, and sunsets. Make sure you bring your camera, even though it barely can do it any justice.
The bed is very comfortable.
Of all the accommodations we've had in different places, this one 'hands down', 'takes the cake'
Highly recommend. It is out of the way, but yet close enough to access amenities. (grocery, laundry, restaurants etc)

This is a remarkably beautiful place. The view from the balcony was breathtaking. The condo was gorgeously appointed with First Nation art and comfortable furniture. Good beds.
Unfortunately it was 35 (95 F), and there was no AC. So that was rough, but probably unusual. If the weather is moderate to cold-it’s the most wonderful vacation home!

EMR Vacation contract seemed a little weird rather than just VRBO agreement. Surprised with monitoring tools - decibel only monitoring, what we believe was a booster or wifi in bedroom, and a device in top corner of bedroom which we assumed was a motion detector? Found the push drawers a little frustrating as didn’t always open or close easily. Overall enjoyed the stay.

Nice property with great views. The kitchen had all the appliances that a person would need. The space is spacious, calm and quiet.
There was no shampoo or conditioner. So make sure to bring your own. Most places have that, this one does not. No tea and limited amount of coffee. No oils or basic kitchen staples either.
Overall, these were minor inconveniences however should be looked at.

This property is tucked away on Cow Bay, and provides an ocean bay setting in a very quiet environment. The only downside was we were not able to bring our border collie with us, as he exceeded the size limit for the house. Hiking is a bit tricky, as you have to either drive to a trailhead, or walk quite a ways down the road. The trail to Genoa Bay is apparently blocked by a homeowner - we did not verify this. But the place is lovely!

We loved the place, tastefully decorated and complete with kitchen amenities. The bed was unfortunately very uncomfortable. The mattress was extremely hard for us, and being older people it was uncomfortable on our hips, shoulders, etc. We would absolutely go back and rent this home, if, they had a softer bed. Thank you to John and Harold being very friendly and helpful hosts.

Stay was fine. Location around the bay from the name village and Duncan. Requires travel through sketchy areas and is remote enough you want to get home before dark.

Very clean and modern. Well setup with everything needed (perhaps add a small microwave). Check-in was exceptional.
