College friend reunion
Our stay at Haddon House was nothing short of perfect! From the personal greeting and tour by our host to the extra touches of elegance in the home, we felt comfortable immediately. Additionally, the stocked pantry, the first breakfast supplies, and chocolates was beyond our expectations. We had a wonderful, relaxing time in Vancouver and at felt right at home in Haddon House!!

Historic Gem near all the great Vancouver sites
We stayed for three days in January 2024, with our friends from Australia. The place was immaculate, very comfortable, had a full array of breakfast items that we couldn’t begin to use up! The beds were very comfortable, and both couples were able to have en suite bathrooms, which is rare in a VRBO. we cannot say enough about our host Johannes, he definitely was one of the highlights of staying there! Would love to return and stay there again in a different time of year, partly to see more of the Vancouver area, and partly just to visit more with Johannes and his lovely wife. We live in Southwest Washington state, so it’s not that far to drive over the border into Canada to explore more of what the Vancouver area has to offer. This VRBO is a perfect location for all of the exciting things to do in the downtown Vancouver area as well as surrounding areas. Definitely recommend this beautiful older home, especially the cozy family room area with the gas fireplace, just off the kitchen. One final note, the Lindor chocolates were to die for, and we ate the entire bowl while we were there!

EXCEPTIONAL VACATION HOME
Haddon House was amazing!! We stayed there for a family girls weekend celebrating my sister's 50th birthday....we couldn't of chosen a better place, everything was perfect! Marie-Louise & Johannes were wonderful hosts! We so appreciated to be accommodated for early check-in and received such a friendly welcome and tour from Johannes:) Their home was immaculate, beautifully appointed and had everything you could need or want for your stay. My Mom is a very tidy person and she couldn't get over how clean it was! It truly felt like a home away from home! It was wonderful to arrive and have the fridge and pantry stocked with a very generous supply of groceries. From the property to the home and amenities, everything was first class and made for a very memorable vacation experience!!

Perfect!
This beautiful home was the perfect place for a group of old friends to gather for a week. The home is lovely inside and out and very comfortable. Owners provided all the amenities we could possibly need. Speaking of the owners, they were available whenever we needed them and so welcoming. The neighborhood is lovely as well. It was a very short walk to Deer Lake - walking trails, water lilies and high rises in the distance. We can't recommend Haddon House more highly!

Beautiful Home and Location
Haddon House is a stunning property. Beautifully maintained, comfortable, and spacious with a lovely deck, fountain, and gazebo in the back for dining and hanging outside! The piano was the main attraction for my family group (4 siblings and their wives/husbands) who are almost all musicians. We'd gather around the piano in the evening, adding the guitars and other instruments we brought, singing our favorite songs and generally having a great time. The location for touring around Vancouver was perfect, close enough for driving into Vancouver, but outside of any noisy areas in a beautiful neighborhood. There is a lovely park nearby with a lake and other attractions. With 4 bedrooms and 3 full baths on the 2nd floor, we were all comfortable (well... one bedroom has a futon and I'm not sure that was the most comfortable bed!) The house has a well-stocked kitchen, and the hosts provided a generous supply of breakfast items, so we didn't have to run out to shop as soon as we arrived. We ordered some dinners for delivery, but various couples in the group cooked several times. I highly recommend the property. Thank you, Haddon House and hosts! Donna

Daughter's Wedding Dream
We could not have imagined or designed a more perfect home to host our family as we prepared for our daughter's out of town wedding! The heritage home is set on beautiful grounds, tastefully decorated inside, spacious and comfortable. It was a joy to share meals together and host the bridal party. It truly felt like we were in our own home, hanging out with our family and friends and just relaxing together. The location was perfect. A 20 minute drive to all the places we needed to go - venue, rehearsal restaurant etc. I especially appreciated not having to drive back to our home, an hour against traffic, to go to bed every night. Johann and Marie-Louise are thoughtful hosts, organized and prepared. They were there when we needed them but always mindful of our privacy. I can honestly say that staying in their home was the perfect backdrop to our special occasion.

Excellent property, superb hosts and a great family holiday
We stayed in Haddon House for a family Christmas and New Year. This is a beautiful heritage house situated in Burnaby. Our hosts were exceptionally helpful and friendly and made our stay extremely comfortable. The house has everything you could wish for and there was lots of space for the 5 of us. It really felt like a home from home. As other guests have mentioned the Fridge was well stocked and we were provided with fresh fruit, breakfast, honey, tea, coffee, etc to make our settling in very easy. There is a large supermarket within 5 minutes drive from the house. The information provided by our hosts in relation to shopping, dining and attractions was very helpful. There is an excellent Pizza takeaway nearby and some fine dining at Hart House restaurant, a short walk from the house. Deer Park Lake is a beautiful lake within walking distance of the house. There are some beautiful walks around the lake and it is also possible to hire boats during the summer. We had a wonderful family Christmas and New Year at Haddon House and this was due in large part to both the wonderful heritage house and our very welcoming and friendly Hosts Johannes and Marie Louise.

Exceptional home!
From the day we checked in, everything about Haddon House was amazing. The owners were meticulous, not only in cleanliness, but instructions as well. We received a tour of the spaces, and every single area of the home was clearly labeled with incredible attention to detail. Our fridge was even stocked with essentials to get us through our first night. It is clear that the owners take pride in their home, and in creating a comfortable experience for guests. Close to major arteries, it was also the perfect location between Vancouver and other areas. We will definitely be staying here again!

Best Place Ever
Seven adults stayed for three nights to attend our son's wedding. From our initial meeting with Johannes we were treat as his most special guests. We had a very good orientation to the home and all the amenities available. His fridge was stocked with food and drink and we were encouraged to just enjoy ourselves. He allowed us to have eleven people over for a pre meeting dinner which made it so easy to get to meet and enjoy our new inlaws. The rooms were very very nice in terms of space for all, the well equipped and fresh bedrooms. Just a fine place to relax and enjoy our time. I would stay again without hesitation and look forward to the next time we can stay longer.
