Beautiful place out in the woods!
We enjoyed our stay. We kind of misunderstood the listing but it’s on us, first time with VRBO. Clean and pleasant. We wish we’d realized it was just a room over the barn. Very nice. It’s a gated property property which is great but you have to notify Isabel every time you come or go so she can wrangle the dog. All things being said, it’s a nice place and was a good base to explore from.

Great view
Comfortable and cozy rooftop room with a decent patio and great view in a quiet neighbourhood. Very friendly hosts. Would return again.
Way better price than hotel and way better experience. Very private and quiet in beautiful area.

Cozy room at a nice location and reasonable price
My son and I had a very nice time at Mountainview for our two day stay there in August 2024. Although the room was not large, it was cozy, clean, and had all we needed, including a small refrigerator, a microwave, one queen size bed, plates, bowls, glasses, and silverware. There was also a nice bathroom and a little table next to the bed where we could eat and play chess at night. The room, which is located on top of a garage on the large property (which I estimate to be about 5 acres) and separate from the main house where the hosts live, has air conditioning, which we didn't use.
The location of the property sits on top a hill just outside Gold Stream Provincial Park, about 20-25 minutes from Victoria's inner harbor. Because it is very quiet here and surrounded by woods in all directions, this place is perfect for vacationers looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city, yet be close enough to access it when so desired.

Nice, quaint with a touch of stress
Everything was as explained in the listing except that we had to text owner 5 minutes before leaving and entering the property through a gate with a code to prevent her dog from leaving the property which honestly just stressed us out. No light on the keypad so had to use a flashlight to see it. To be fair we were there for a memorial of a sibling so we had lots on the mind already.
Everything was beautiful. Perfect spot to relax & enjoy nature. Isabel was awesome with directions to get there. Place was clean & had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend.

Amazing location in a tucked away community on a mountain. Great people, great vibes. Best location
Easy to find Easy access to Victoria and other island locations Unit had everything one could ask for (except maybe tissues) lol Terrific views and QUIET Thanks to Isobel and Sean
Stayed overnight before an early work shift in the next town over. Views are unbelievable, very quiet space and I had a restful sleep.
Of note - To check in/check out, or leave the property at any point during your stay you will need to text the contact person. Also, there's a waiver to sign at check in which specifies that you shouldn't lean on the banister on the deck. I found this clause odd, but it was explained to me how it was a safety concern rather than a structural issue. Overall, highly recommend, can't be beat for the price.
Isabel & Sean(Shawn?) were wonderful hosts! This place is off the radar but the hosts instructions are clear. The loft is clean and beautiful. If you’re looking for a quiet little place to yourself, this is it. We had deers out or back window in the evenings in the property behind. The views are stunning! Lots of fun stuff to do nearby; we had a whale watching trip but also went to Goldstream the following day. You can stay in, or go out. But this place is great !

Awesome!
Beautiful spot, very cute,clean, lovely room. We had everything we needed, host was awesome. Highly recommend! Hope to return!
The property was peacfull and privite
no television so be prepared for your own accounts eg: netflix, the bed is very uncomfortable, and need of a clock radio for music, otherwize a very cute place to have a day or 2 away not much longer than that !
The road in is very unsafe, the city needs to make it a 2 way street not a 1 lane street for a 2 way
We used to live in this area and really enjoyed staying for a couple of days to appreciate how time has seen the area remain even greener and lusher than we remember. Our hosts were superb and although pets are not allowed, they have a dog of their own which, as cat people, we were able to text them when we were coming and going, ensuring the dog did not bother us at all. It’s a cozy nice little space, a perfect base for sojourns to the wonders of Goldstream Park, and only few minutes to Victoria. We did notice a dramatic increase in traffic however, so it is quite challenging to leave from the park entrance carefully waiting for a break in the flow of travellers in July. Otherwise, we’ll certainly be happy to return, it was lovely.
