Großartiges Ferienhaus
Das Haus war für uns 6 ein wunderbarer Ort, um Urlaub zu machen. Es liegt ideal, um von Campell River bis Nanaimo alles zu erkunden und ist groß genug für 6 Erwachsene. Alles war sehr sauber und ordentlich und vor allem war es hervorragend ausgestattet. Vom Schälmesser über genug Pfannen, Töpfe, eine Musikbox, Handtücher, vielen Spielen etc. war wirklich alles da. Geweckt wurden wir immer von den Seelöwen, die vorm Garten hin und her schwammen und jeden fast jeden Morgen konnten wir einen Adler im Baum nebenan beobachten. Wir würden diese Unterkunft auf jeden Fall sofort wieder buchen.

Wonderful Beach house!
My family and I loved our stay at the beach house - it’s in a central location on the island to many hikes and attractions. There were days that we just hung out and found sea shells, walked along the private beach, watched seals and went paddle boarding (we rented an inflatable paddle board for the week). The property was clean and the kitchen well stocked with everything we could need for cooking.

Great spot for families
We stayed here for over a week with our 5 and 7 yr old kids. It it was a great spot for them as they could play on the beach right in our backyard. There is a sandy beach with morning sun a short walk from the house. We had a small issue with the shower, and Joan was very quick to respond and it was fixed within hours. Definitely recommend this spot.

We had a fantastic time while visiting the area. The location of this property cannot be beat - quiet street, right on the water with seals and ducks swimming by all day. The house was clean and well stocked and all communication with the owner was efficient. We hope to return again soon!

So relaxing
This is the second time staying at this deep bay beach house and we loved it just as much as the first time in 2019! We have two kids ages 6&9 and they have so much fun with the basketball net, games and puzzles and just a quick few steps from the beach. It is great sitting in the kitchen, living room or master bedroom with the view from the big widows. This is just a short ferry ride from home so we will definitely be staying here again in the future. Secluded and something for everyone. Thank you so much Joan!

Needs some attention to cleaning details but amazing location.
The property location was outstanding. The cleanliness of the linens, counters, under beds was not so good. General attention to the bathroom plumbing is needed and the bathroom fan was thick with dust. There wasnt any instructions on how to operate the TV, there wasnt any compost bags and ran out of coffee filters ….those little details add up. The bed was very comfortable but glad that I brought my own linen.

Excellent beachfront family house
We absolutely loved the location, layout and amenities of this house! Sea lions, eagles, seals etc were constantly visible from the living room, and long beach walks at low tide were a daily routine. The mid-century modern house was surprisingly spacious with large bedrooms and living areas - more than enough space for 6 of us. The kitchen was well-stocked, the house was very clean and nicely decorated. This was an awesome place to spend a family week getaway, with lots of good day trips in close proximity.

Perfect getaway
We stayed for the Thanksgiving weekend and it was lovely. The kitchen is fully stocked, super clean and a beautiful location. It was great watching and listening on stormy days and great for walking to the marina when things cleared up. We made use of the horseshoe pit (bonus) and the outside space. We highly recommend staying here and will be back!

About the host

Hosted by Joan Miller

Host profile image
Our lives away from the Beach house are very active. As Realtors we feel that this property is one of the best ocean front properties on Vancouver Island and spend as much time there as possible. The house is shared and enjoyed by family, extended family and friends and many memories have been made in this home away from home.

Why they chose this property

We wanted a place for our children to spend quality time with their grandparents and cousins and enjoy the magical and mystical Deep Bay Spit. Wildlife and ocean life come alive and many hours are spent boating, beachcombing and swimming.

What makes this property unique

The house has been completely renovated with a new kitchen, bathroom, appliances, & furniture package.
