Clean, friendly hosts and has everything you need
We stayed at Doris and Rick’s place over the holidays. Our stay was wonderful! This is the spot to be if you’re staying in Parksville area. It has a full kitchen with everything you may need, a king sized bed and the hosts clearly care about their guests and their property. Thank you so much Doris and Rick, we hope to stay again in the future!

Amazing Suite!
What a jem in the center of Parksville. If I could give it 10 stars I would! The suite exceeded all my expectations. Everything that I needed for my stay was available. The soaker tub was a added bonus on the cold rainy nights. Communication was great. I highly recommend this suite. A big Texas thank you to Doris and Rick! #1 on my list for my visits to the Island.

Anniversary Treat
For our 50th Anniversary, my wife and I treated ourselves to a trip to the Island. Our VRBO turned out to be a perfect place to use as a hub for our day trips to various places on the Island. The unit was immaculate and very well appointed/stocked with everything we needed for our stay, even a bbq on the front patio. The king bed was very comfortable and the rain shower head was great. Our host Rick was very friendly and acted quickly on any questions/concerns we had. Unit location was great, only 1 block from main drag, but in a quiet residential area, close to restaurants and grocery stores. We had a black bunny come to visit us on our patio at least once a day! We would recommend the property to any couple or family of 3 or4, and will certainly choose it for our next trip to the area.

This was our second time staying here. The place is spacious and immaculately clean. The kitchen is well-stocked and perfect for preparing meals. And of course, the property itself is beautiful and centrally located. The owners are really friendly and they communicated well in advance of the trip. I plan to stay here every time I bring my family to Parksville.

Great Place ! Indoor and Out
Hosts were great at communicating and responding to my questions. We were there for a tournament, and it was great to come back to a well stocked kitchen, A/C, and to relax in the back yard. Having the BBQ was also a big plus, as there isn't many options in Parksville eating later in the day. Thanks to Doris and Rick for their hospitality and look forward to coming back.

The unit is just as pictured. Very clean and cozy. The furnishings were all very comfortable with plush towels and linens. The outdoor space was beautiful and private. We stayed 5 nights and explored the beaches, Rathtrevor Park, Englishman River Falls and Cathedral Grove. It’s a very central location for exploring the area. Highly recommend!

Fantastic gem in Parksville
Spotlessly clean and well decorated home in Parksville. Would be great in the summer as it’s within walking to the city beach but on a side street, away from the summer traffic. Good local restaurants are nearby along with three grocery stores in case you want to take advantage of the full kitchen in the unit. Doris and Rick were welcoming hosts and I had zero issues during my stay. The pictures are exactly what you get. I’ll definitely be booking again when I need a place to stay in Parksville.
