Loved This Property and Location
My family and I really enjoyed this property. The house was spacious and very kid and family friendly. We will definitely look to come and stay here again. The only downfall was that the rubbish bins were already full and there wasn’t any plastic cups for younger children.

Come to Victoria to visit a relative. Very nice house. The central heating was great in the cold snap. Great kitchen, large TVs including one in the bedroom. Bikes and helmets for a ride to Raymond Island with remote control garage door. The bath and showers were deluxe. A great house to stay in.

Great set up
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A great big house with good amenities. Plenty of room for everyone. Kayak's, paddle boards and bikes there for your convenience. Small backyard but plenty of seating. Some general repairs required eg. toilet door unable to close, blind in kids bedroom broken so unable to open it. The property managers did thank us for reporting and said they would repair. The cleanliness was not of an expected standard for the cleaning costs. There was food spilt down the front of cupboards, food trays, balloons and other filth under the couches which are high enough to easily sweep under. Inside cupboards and under beds could use a good clean. Overall it is still a great property that I would recommend.
