This property was perfect in so many ways! It was so clean, well stocked, quiet, and located close to so many stores and restaurants while still being in a quiet neighborhood. I appreciated having my own washer and dryer to use and the goodies set out for my arrival were a really nice touch. I did hear some footsteps from the upstairs, but that was minimal and not bothersome to me at all. I enjoyed my stay there and will definitely book again on my next trip to the area! Thank you!!!

Louise and Paul provided a very easy process to book, checkin and checkout. It was nice central location in Duncan to travel between Parksville, Nanaimo, Ladysmith, and Victoria. Our hosts had a nice snack basket waiting for us upon arrival.
