Great stay, we were there of 2 nights, place was easy to get to, the hosts were sweet, very cosy place away form the the city and quiet and comforting.
We loved staying at this VRBO. It's located in a beautiful location. Beautiful place exactly as listed. Clean, quiet and a fully equipped kitchen. Owners were prompt and check in was a breeze. Would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend to friends and family.
We absolutely loved this place. The hosts have thought of everything for a comfortable get-away. The location is perfect as it is close to numerous hiking trails but still only a short distance to Langford or downtown Victoria. We will definitely be back again.
We had a wonderful time with friends staying at the Matheson Lake Guest House. The hosts were fantastic, the property was beautiful, and we had a great time enjoying the hot tub, fire pit, and being surrounded by nature. I would highly recommend!
This property was located right beside Matheson Lake, which we hiked around upon arrival. Beautiful space with great light and good sleeping arrangements. Would stay there again!
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Matheson Guest House. It's a beautiful space, light, airy and very comfortable. There's lots of great hiking nearby, you can almost get your dog tired out.
My friends and I went on our first solo trip and Matheson Lake Guest House was such a wonderful place to stay. We enjoyed being a bit more removed and having the quiet surroundings, and having the dogs greet us every time we drove in! The place was very clean and the kitchen was well supplied.
We loved our stay at the Guest House. The atmosphere is splendid! The weather didn't co-operate for using the deck or firepit but the space inside was perfect for catching up and relaxing and the full kitchen is great for cooking. We would definitely go back to stay again if we were in the area!
We had such a great time! The 'Tree House' was clean, cozy, and equipped with all the amenities we could possibly need.
The location was ideal, offering both seclusion and a quick drive down the driveway to the lake. The outdoor space was a highlight, with a patio and hot tub area.
wonderful Christmas break . Best equipped kitchen we have ever seen. Spotlessly clean with everything u would need for your stay. Amanda even sourced a fireplace so we could hang out stockings up. We loved our stay
We made a long weekend getaway for thanksgiving and this property was perfect. It was so amazingly quiet and peaceful. Very close to a little lake to do some light hiking. Close enough to some larger towns to get what you need and then a beautiful drive to peaceful retreat. The grounds are lovely and well kept.
Beautiful and tranquil spot tucked away in the most beautiful parts of Metchosin. We had a wonderful time relaxing, reconnecting, and celebrating a milestone birthday. The home is fully stocked for preparing meals, playing games, and spacious enough for six adults
This was perfect for celebrating my birthday with a few friends. Hosts were friendly, house intructions were short & easy to follow. The property has beautiful suooundings, which we enjoyed from the hot tub, and the interior is a very relaxing space.
Wonderful property in a quiet location in the trees. So relaxing and welcoming. Our hosts, Amanda and Dave were lovely and very helpful in suggesting great places for us to visit that suited our interests. Wished we could have stayed longer than the week we booked. No hesitation in recommending this property.
Amanda was a great host. The property is beautiful and close to a regional park with hiking trails . The house is comfortable and relaxing. Loved the hot tub at night. Highly recommended.
We had an amazing stay hosts were wonderfully kind, had everything you’d need there, the only thing I’d suggest would be some robes since the hot tub is down around the side of the house, but again thank you for a great staycation 😁😁 and I’d recommend staying here for sure.
Out of town but not too far. Quiet and relaxing. Seemed like being upstairs above the owner and having the hot tub close to their part of the house would be odd but it was fine. Very nice vibe all of the natural wood.
