This is a great place for a West Coast experience. We are located minutes from the shores of the Pacific Ocean. A short drive to Cathedral Grove and those Majestic trees. We are mid Vancouver Island in the quaint town of Qualicum Beach. The town has lots of restaurants, grocery store, pharmacy, three golf courses open year round. A walking trail in a forested area right in this neighbourhood. Close to Mount Washington for skiing, rivers close b for fishing, easy access to launch your ocean kayak. This is a one level rancher. Complete with a heat pump, a propane fireplace and back deck BBQ, on demand hot water and if you like to cook … a bright yellow six burner Kitchen Aide propane stove. I am an artist, if i am home you can watch me work in it. And, as a result, I have a bright colourful home. We have on site washer and dryer. The kitchen is recently renovated by an ‘guitar builder’ so the cabinets are unique and functional and includes the iconic table and chairs that we’ve all seen in every café across Canada. The bathroom is a newly renovated space that has a separate bathtub and a large large walk-in shower. There’s a lovely deck to sit on in the backyard. The back yard is fenced and pets are welcome to play in the yard. Plenty of parking. Pets are permitted. Long-term stay encouraged! On some bookings I will not be on site, other times i will be there but ‘scarce’. If i am home i will be working in my studio that is attached but separate from the house. My wee Yorkie Betty and I sleep in my RV in the yard when guests are here.

We found this super cute and cozy house online and it fit our price range and area we wanted to stay in. When we arrived we were greeted by a cheerful Carla and Itty Bitty Betty her adorable, gentle yorkie pup. The house was very welcoming and open as we were shown our room and a tour of the house and all the amenities. The bed was super comfy, the bathroom had a heated floor and separate shower and big tub, the kithchen had a massive 6 burner top of the line gas stove(although I only used it to boil water for tea...not cooking on my anniversary trip, lol) The back patio had a bbq as well and a beautiful quiet area to enjoy morning or evening beverages. The area is very quiet and desireable, we felt very safe and there was absolutely no traffic, but we were very close to everything by car. We goofed up on our reservation dates and Carla was so accomodating and understanding, her goal was to make sure we were ok and enjoyed our stay, which we absolutely did and given the chance we will definitely be back! Thank you Carla and Itty Bitty Betty for a perfect Anniversary getaway!
Carla was a very helpful and delightful host. Good and useful communications

About the host
Hosted by Carla Flegel
As the rules change, I thought it would be appreciated to have more options in this beautiful area of our country. So I thought I would offer my home. I enjoy meeting new people and spending time with you … if I’m home during your stay
Why they chose this property
This is a lovely quiet established neighborhood. Lots of folk walking by the front window with their dogs, waving and saying hi. Easy access to town the beaches and the forest.
What makes this property unique
When this house was renovated a fellow who is a guitar builder made the cupboards so the woodwork in the kitchen and bathroom are extraordinary. We are very close to the little Qualicum river so Eagles soaring overhead is a common sound. Because I am an artist I like colour so the house is bright and cheerful, and a bit quirky, hope you enjoy your stay with me
