About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Centrally located private studio in Chemainus
My home is a little bit funky and a little bit Zen like. There are beautiful trees and plants. It is very private and quiet. I have a grape vine in my yard and a hugh windmill palm tree. My home is close to everything that Chemainus has to offer - Kin Beach and the very best Thai Restaurant in Chemainus is around the corner. Everything is within walking distance - Latte and Expresso coffee, Shopping,, a market and world famous murals that illustrate the history of Chemainus. Also Live Dinner Theatre, golfing, hiking trails. You may want to take a day trip to Thetis Island. This ferry is 1 block from my house. Lots of fun and adventure to be had in our beautiful little town on the sea. The studio suite is newly renovated with a private entrance and private patio deck.

Stay Experience
It was a great little place. Right in town with a lot of local walking locations nearby. The place has a smart tv and good sized bed with a nice large shower. Overall had a great experience!

Could not sleep in bed - it was too soft.
We were both ill with the flu but the furniture we could rest on looked like outdoor wicker furniture and not comfortable at all. We left early.

Wonderful little cottage in a quiet community
The check in process was extremely easy. The list ofrequirements and expectations was straight forward and to the point. The mattress was like sleeping like I have never slept. The decor and anesthetic was pleasing. Sue was a delight to deal with and I know when I'm back out this way I will be checking for availability with her property
All very comfortable and easy. I would have been helpful to have instructions on how to program the thermostat.

Sweet suite
Spacious accommodation for two with a fully equipped kitchen which suited our needs. Nice nook/covered seating area in the back which would be great in spring and summer....*my only suggestion would be if you are a light sleeper to bring an eye mask as the sensor light illuminated the space which was unfortunate as I had forgot mine. All in all we enjoyed the space.
