Great hosts and amazing location

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed Jul 25, 2015
We stayed here two nights in the summer and would definitely go back. The place is great - right on the lake, it's a little piece of heaven. The property is really well maintained and the hosts are friendly and helpful. You have a deck with access to a canoe, and kayaks. It was such a relaxing getaway - you can sit at the water and read/relax all day or jump in the lake and go for a swim. They have a hot tub as well. Other amenities: wifi, access to dvds and movies, A/C in the rooms. Gordie made great hot breakfasts for us each morning and they spent the time talking to us and giving us advice about the area.

We were so lucky to have booked here with Janice and Gordie. Both were fantastic hosts and offered great ideas for our 2 night stay. Going to Coombs was a highlight and seeing the goats on the roof of the shops. I was also directed to Fengy Boutique and that caused my credit card to get a work out- well worth it. , The BnB is just so well set up with fantastic views out over the lake. We even used the spa overlooking the lake. The breakfast was the best yet and it was so nice being in a very quiet area away from all the traffic.

G'day mates - we enjoyed chatting about Australia and your hometown. Glad you had a great time here. We know you will enjoy the bamboo clothing from Coombs. Cheers

This is the second time that we have stayed with the owners, Janice and Gordie, within the last year and it won't be our last. The rooms are wonderfully outfitted, the location is great and Janice and Gordie are perfect hosts.

Room tip: All rooms are equally good.

The B&B, the host, the breakfast, everything was just excellent!! Absolutely the best place to stay in Nanaimo! I like most is the sunset. Want to go back in summer time as it was still cold when I was there.

My husband and I spent 2 nights at this fantastic B&B last week. We were so taken by the hospitality of Gordie and Janice. Our room was gorgeous - large and immaculate, the breakfasts were first class, the location was perfect. We would highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a quiet getaway.

Room tip: All rooms were lovely

Amazing B&B location and superb hospitality. The rooms are fantastic, Janice and Gordie are so friendly and hospitable, and breakfast was so tasty each morning. Nanaimo is a great location, so much to see and do locally and a short drive away.
