Terrific house and location!
Beautiful, modern, well maintained house with exceptional views and amenities. Well stocked with items not always found in other VRBO rentals. Examples include pantry items, coffee and expresso machine. Extremely clean with very nice radiant heat made it very comfortable on cold, wet days. Limited use of the terrific deck due to mixed weather (not unexpected during March). A unique dining room table with comfortable space for 8 with a wonderful view of Crofton Harbor and the islands and mountains beyond. Both house and location worked perfectly for spending time with our family members who live locally - the motivation for us to come to Vancouver Island. Will definitely plan to come back again.

Crofton by the sea
This beautiful and modern home is pristine and well equipped with everything you need for comfort and enjoyment. Walk along the seawalk, or sit on the deck and watch the ferries pass by in the daytime, and stargaze ar night. This is a beautiful and comfortable place, host's suggestions for where to go were great, and we found ourselves so relaxed it was hard to leave when the time came. Thank you for this magnificent stay!

Getaway from the busy world
This rental property was awesome. Located on the ,water, on the edge of Crofton. On the end of the street so no traffic in the area. So quiet. Beautiful view, perfect atmosphere. Also, being located in Crofton which is pretty much Center of Island, made it a short trip either going south or north to explore and enjoy all the sites and sounds of the island. Highly recommend.

Clean and quiet
Everything about our stay was as advertised. It is a beautifully kept quiet home in a nice neighborhood. It is central on the coast. The scents in the house were intense however once the wind shifted and we smelt the pulp and paper mill further up the coast we understood the need. The change in wind direction only happened briefly and would not stop us returning. The nearby walks were wonderful and Duncan has everything you need.

Perfect Vacation Home
This home was the perfect jumping off spot for our vacation. The pictures do not do it justice. It was even more beautiful in person. The view was incredible, as well. The home was well stocked and I can’t think of anything it was lacking. Beds were comfortable too! There is one bedroom and full bath upstairs and one bedroom downstairs with another full bath right next to it, making it perfect for couples to share. The living area was roomy and the outdoor deck was amazingly large. The view of the water was fully visible from downstairs and upstairs. This home is located an hour north of Victoria, making it easily accessible to many places.

Great location and views!
We loved our stay in Crofton! It was a convenient location to explore the area by car, and we used the public waterfront boardwalk access several times to stroll to the beach and the pub! The house was very spacious and comfortable for 4, and we spent lots of time on the deck watching the Ferries go by. Loved it!!

Perfect for our needs
This was the perfect place for our family of 4 to stay this visit to Vancouver Island. The location gave us good proximity to relatives both in Duncan and on Salt spring Island. And it allowed us to wake up to a view of the ocean! The house was very comfortable and decorated beautifully. There were many thoughtful touches. We loved sitting out on the deck. I was worried about the lack of air conditioning and the warm temperatures but this wasn’t a problem at all. The plentiful windows, fans and ocean breeze made it very pleasant. The owners were good to communicate with.

Lovely stay with beautiful view!
My husband and I enjoyed a week long stay in the hottest part of the summer here! It was amazing having so many lakes within a short driving distance and beautiful ocean and boardwalk close by. We loved Dwaynes recommendation to walk to the ferry to salt spring and enjoy a beautiful dinner and sunset from the island! The home itself is also beautiful and wonderfully decorated. Great kitchen and lovely soaker tub! Would definitely return :)
