Homey acommodation had every possible convenience for a three generation family to enjoy a relaxing time together. Absolutely everything one could possibly need was provided. The view is unsurpassed. Host family is helpful & friendly while respecting our privacy.

Stunning view and quiet peaceful surroundings. Easy access to Duncan. Enjoyed the quiet drive down to Genoa Bay and great food along the way at the various marinas. Our host was a wealth of information about local activities and places to eat. The house was bright and sunny with all the amenities you could ever want.

Lovely 2 Week Getaway
We enjoyed our stay and the view of the water was amazing. It was nice sitting on the deck in the evening, enjoying the weather and watching the boats coming into the bay. The property felt like home to us and it had everything we needed to relax and fix some special meals. The property is a little bit out of town but the area is very quiet and peaceful at night. We were able to explore the area and the local sights, enjoy some great restaurants and take advantage of some of the local golf courses. Melody the property owner was fantastic at providing information on local points of interest and some of her favorite dining spots. We would not hesitate to stay here again.
