About this property

Experience beautiful Goldstream Park from within...

This is a unique fully furnished private 2 bedroom/1 (newly renovated) bathroom suite located on two forested acres at the base of beautiful Mt. Finlayson in magical Goldstream Park. With stunning forest views, cozy open concept living space and gorgeous deck overlooking a creek lined with ancient Red Cedars, this space is a Nature lovers dream. Perfect for resting, painting, meditating, forest gazing or birdwatching, the ever changing view will mesmerize any onlooker. The cozy open concept living space - complete with wood-stove for a cottage feel - is great for socializing while cooking, and continues out onto a large private deck, perfect for enjoying a meal (weather permitting), socializing, or catching a quiet moment alone with the forest.

You may feel like you are sleeping in the trees as each bedroom boasts secluded forest views of towering Red Cedars. During the Winter you can crack your window and let the creek rushing past lull you to sleep.

This space is ideal for those who want to get away from the beaten path, and are looking for a nature based experience. Located in the heart of the park, you can access hiking trails galore in every direction - down into the ancient giants along Goldstream River or up to the heights of Mt. Finalyson for views of the entire region. As secluded as you may feel, we are located just 5 mins from amenities in Langford (shopping, restaurants, movies ect) and 15 mins from downtown Victoria. Only 1 km from Highway 1, this is a great access point to explore the southern part of the island - 20mins from Sooke, 15 mins from Mill Bay, 20 mins from Cowichan Valley, 50 mins from Nanaimo.

There is a dishwasher and in suite washer/dryer for your convenience - we will provide laundry and dish soap to ensure the soap is eco-friendly (we are on a septic system and we cherish our deliciously clean well water).

Awesome stay in the woods.

This is an absolutely amazing property in a stunning setting. It is convenient to all amenities, including shopping, hiking, exploring either the Victoria area or up Island towards the north. Our hosts were extremely helpful and available.

Beautiful retreat

This was a wonderful way to visit relatives in Victoria and enjoy a magical rainforest retreat, equipped with wood stove, gorgeous kitchen and bathroom, plus a bedroom that felt like a treehouse fort. Best sleeps. Privacy. Welcoming hosts. Peacefulness.

A true retreat

Secluded and idyllic

Great location. Felt secluded yet close to route to tourist spots and get away locations. Accommodation was spot on. We loved our stay. Did some trails, saw sea otters, bald eagles, turkey eagles, woodpecker, deer. Had whale watch trip saw hump backed whales. Very emotional and special!

Great experience!

We unfortunately could only stay for a weekend at Kristen's and Rudi's place. It is easily one of the best houses we have ever stayed. The house is very spacious, contains all the amenities you need (well-equipped kitchen) and was super clean. It is located just a short drive into goldstream provincial park but it gives you the feeling of being away from it all. We woke up to whistling of the birds and the sound of the creek that runs just beside the house. Perfect! It is a short drive to the stores on millstream (10 min) and 10 min down the road is Victoria, so everything is very close by. Needless to say, the area is lovely to visit. The house has a garden with a little playground, which our young children enjoyed very much! Especially playing with Kristen and Rudi's kids. Kristen and Rudi were great hosts, providing useful tips for visiting places/restaurants in the area. They were very hospitable. We would definitively return again and highly recommend!

Amazing!!!

The place was amazing and there was lots to see but the best part is all the trails that are close by that you can go to. I would highly recommend this place for its amazing views and nature walks and all the animals to see.

Cozy hide away cabin

Lovely people, cozy warm atmosphere, even when the winds blew out the power they had a generator ready to go and were attentive to help out in any way. Beds are comfy, space is lovely, setting in the forest is magical, and so reasonably priced!

Beautiful setting

We especially appreciated the location (the trails and waterfalls in the area) , the lovely beds and bedding that were so comfortable, and for the friendly wildlife visitors (deers) that we saw often wondering around outside (including when our daughter was sitting in her car they came right up to the window to peer through at her!). This is a stunning location in spite of the ups, downs ,twists and turns of the road to get there lol!

This place is flat-out amazing. Pictures can’t do justice for the views and serenity of the house- it’s a nature paradise in Goldstream Provincial Park (so convenient for stunning trail loops) yet still just minutes to anything you would need in town. Kristen was a wonderful, detail-oriented host and has outfitted the house with everything you could think of. The space is very comfortable- we spent two nights and were ready to move in by the time we left lol. We won’t hesitate to recommend to friends and family.

Langford

This property ideal for a couple or for a small family that like to be on their own. The unit is fully equipped and all the appliances are modern. The Wi Fi is fast and never failed. The owners are most helpful and answer any questions at once. The city of Langford is close by and has all the stores one might want. At the base of the hill, Goldstream Park has hiking trail for all. We stayed for 2 weeks in January and enjoyed the peace and quiet.

Nice place to stay.

The road up to this place is steep and winding. Combined with the locals driving habits, makes the smallish parking area a small pain to exit. Owners live on the property. We hardly noticed them. Kristen was quick, (less than 2 minutes), to respond to a text when we needed to find a repair shop for our car. As for the unit itself, it is nicely finished inside despite being an older building. Because it is shaded by lots of trees it is quite dark inside, though there are plenty of windows for natural light. The bedrooms and bathroom are up a full flight of stairs. Overall, we would not hesitate to stay again.
