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!

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.

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.

Beautiful and spacious

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!
