The home was perfect for our visit to Chilliwack to see family in the area. We loved how close it was to Cultus Lake and Castle fun park as those were on our list of things to do while in the area. Having a laundry room to use makes it so much easier to go home knowing I don’t have a ton of laundry to do once home. The beds were comfortable. And at night the neighborhood was quiet. We’d stay again.

Couldn’t get the dishwasher to work. Messaged the host and he replied once with a solution that did not work. Never replied to further messages or phone calls.Couch in living room had a bad odor.Front and back yard were over grown and untidy.Furniture in backyard was dirty. Ther was also a bad smell in the backyard due to rotten apples on top of a shed roof.

Rancher

It was a nice place to stay and had lots of room for our family. The only hiccup we had was finding out the AC was only in the living room. When we arrived the AC was turned off and it had taken some time to cool down. The owner brought us some more fans right away so that helped. Not something that is a big deal for adults but can be frustrating when trying to keep a child and baby cooled down.I did like that they have lots of baby/toddler item's available in one of the closets. We usually stay in hotels so was nice to have the option of some of the items if needed. The backyard is absolutely beautiful. My 3 year old loved going into the backyard and showing all of us the grapevines and the big apple tree.

Great spacious rancher!

We stayed with our three grandchildren and our daughter stayed one night! They were so happy to have their own room. The space very clean, well stocked with thoughtful personal care items. I love the fact they recycle and provide detail directions to do so.

Awesome place!

This place is perfection. The luxurious feel of an upscale hotel yet with the charm and warmth of a cozy home. So beautifully decorated, when you walk in the door you will be struck by this immediately. All the little details from the toiletries in the washrooms, the lovely coffee, comfortable beds and spotlessness of the home all contribute to the enjoyable experience. Great location with a short walk to the city centre.

There were hairs in the beds so we weren't sure if the sheets had been changed and we slept on top of the blankets. The area is not the greatest. The house was decent otherwise.

Pleasant and Comfortable Stay

This is a great place to stay if you want to spend time with friends and family, watch a movie, play board games, go on walks and spend a little time in and around Chilliwack. The home is quiet, comfortable and has been updated. The kitchen is well-stocked and the beds were comfy. There is definitely room for 8 people (as advertised), though 2 would be singles or good for kids sleeping together. The hosts were great. They provided an emergency number. We did not have to use it but I have a feeling they would be responsive if you did. We loved the coffee maker!!!

Perfect!

Very nice, cozy accomodations for our family to meet up for Christmas. The pictures are all accurate. It is an older house but is tastefully renovated to offer modern conveniences, (no searching on where to plug in all the chargers) and to make it feel home-y. We didn't find the street noise too loud but we always sleep with fan noise anyhow. Lots of little extras to try to anticipate guests needs, which I feel whether I use them or not, goes a long way to show guests that they appreciate the business. I certainly appreciated the sugar that I'd forgotten to bring to make my cranberry sauce for Christmas dinner! Updated clean bathrooms and kitchen, with plenty of newer dishes to use, comfortable beds, comfy big couch in living room, it was perfect for our needs. Host is nearby and quick to respond to any questions. Would definitely stay here again.

Exceeded expectations!

I was pleased to hear a wide range of positive comments, from among our family party of 8 from 3 cities. "Okay, I'm impressed," "It's adorable," "So many thoughtful touches," "Its better than a hotel," "I feel like a millionaire," and more. As the coordinating family member, you can imagine how happy I was to hear these comments ans see everyone get comfortable. Personally, I was impressed at the obvious work and attention to detail, to get the property to the level It's at. I missed out sitting in the 2 exterior sitting spots, but others mentioned how cute those were. The property manager was very communicative, both in advance and at check in, and let us know his availability in event we needed assistance over our stay. To cap it off, after checkout I wanted to share my observations and feedback by phone. The call was warm and the feedback clearly appreciated. This stay delivered, exceeding the expectations a larger group can require. It would also be a lovely getaway for two. I was delighted.

Our stay was… ok

Overall the property description matched our experience fairly closely but there were some key discrepancies that made a difference: 1) There was no travel crib as listed. We reached out to the host about this and they said previous guests damaged it and another was in the process of being delivered. On one hand I completely understand that these things happen and it was just bad timing but on the other hand, we were relying on that amenity for our 14 month old and his sleep was negatively impacted by not having a crib because that is what he is used to. 2) Including A/C as an amenity was misleading. There was one portable A/C in one bedroom but nothing else. We stayed at the peak of summer and were really hoping for proper A/C. The fans helped a bit but it was definitely not the same. 3) We couldn’t get Netflix to work on the second day. We didn’t bother reaching out to the host about this because we were tired after a long day. 4) The location in North Chilliwack is not the greatest. It’s not a very walkable neighbourhood (to coffee, etc.) with small children. I realize there’s a lot to consider and manage as a host but these small discrepancies between between the listing and experience do add up.
