Very peaceful and pleasant. Beautiful property and beaches around.
Beautiful suite in beautiful surroundings! The hosts are warm and thoughtful and really went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. The suite was thoughtfully equipped with extra things to make one's stay comfortable. It was like a home away from home.
My wife and had a wonderful time staying at Paul and Val's place. Our dog Murphy was in heaven with the huge yard and toys.
We highly recommend this beautiful place close to Ladysmith, BC.

Vancouver Islands best kept secret with the perfect hosts to match, property is absolutely beautiful, the unit is very generous, a perfect getaway, sleeping quarters black right out and you can be comfortable if you like to sleep warm or cold, Val and Paul were so welcoming and were quick to start the relaxing vacation, and answer any question thrown their way! I can’t say enough great incredible things about the stay, 11/10
Wonderful, open hosts. Property abounds with space for dogs to play; fruits trees & large lawn to play on! Grateful for the connection with hosts & the kitchen amenities provided for us to help us enjoy our stay! Ocean, Sea & windy back roads to explore! Great pubs a quick drive away! Would stay longer next time
A beautiful property with such lovely hosts. Val and Paul were welcoming and friendly from the moment we arrived. The stay far exceeded my expectations. It was ideally located for my needs and the fenced yard was perfect for my dog. Fozzie made himself at home and didn't take long to learn where to get the best scritches. My only regret was that I couldn't stay longer.
This is such a great place! The property is beautiful, and Val and Paul are very friendly and really go above and beyond to make your stay great. I would highly recommend it to anyone staying in the area.
This place feels like home. Our hosts, Val and Paul were there to greet us and walked us through the property. Everything is very neat and clean, bed and linens are great and kitchen has all the necessities. We really appreciated the breakfast food that was provided. There are walking trails and beaches close by. The property has gardens and fruit trees and relaxing sitting areas. Paul and Val are amazing hosts and it was lovely to share our stories. Loved this place.
We came in as strangers and left as friends. Java and Toffee enjoyed the large fenced in property, although Toffee wanted out when we left her the first time. Thanks to Paul and Val, for providing everything we needed for an excellent stay. Donald & Claudette
From welcoming us, providing information on the suite/yard, sharing information on the area and showing interest in our adventures it was like staying with a loving family. Hope to come back
We loved staying at the Two Dogs Inn! Very clean, cozy suite with all our necessities provided, hosts went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable! Beautiful + peaceful area, lots to do close by in Ladysmith (stores, coffee, etc.). Hosts were very welcoming and helpful with any extra things we needed, and any questions we had about travelling! We enjoyed our stay, and hope to return!
Val and Paul are wonderful hosts and have their suite set up very nicely. They are very gracious and friendly and have numerous amenities including fresh farm eggs for breakfast! The barbecue came in handy as well!

We really enjoyed this gem of a place with lovely hosts Paul and Val, or was it Captain and Ruby the two Pyrenees Mountain dogs. The cabin is well equipped and kitchen well stocked by Val and we wish we could stay longer to enjoy the rural setting and hospitality. We learned so much about the region from talking to our hosts and would like to be back some day.
Valerie and Paul are wonderful hosts and now friends I will visit every time I am on the island. Their property is wonderful, the apartment is everything you could ask for, and it was stocked with some food and water and other necessities that you don’t ever see in a rental. Most of all, I enjoyed sharing time and stories with Paul and Valerie while Captain guarded us and the property. I had a wonderful stay and look forward to staying there again and visiting with the best hosts ever.
The property was as advertised. The hosts were warm, friendly and accommodating. There were wonderful touches throughout the suite such as bowls of chocolate, a welcoming vase of flowers and a fridge stocked with bread, butter, eggs, yogurt etc. I especially enjoyed the lovely garden, complete with a grape arbour seating area. Captain, the lovely dog, and the super friendly cat were the icing on the cake.
Val and Paul were great hosts. Very knowledgeable. The suite was clean and very well stocked with a variety of breakfast choices including eggs, yogurt, English muffins and cereals. A pleasant surprise. Would recommend this place to everyone. Looking forward to coming back in the summer to enjoy the pool and a glass of wine with our hosts.
