Fantastic home away from home
The location was perfect for us since we arrived by ferry from Vancouver. The beds were super comfortable (a must for me) and had we used the kitchen it had everything we could possibly have needed.

Refreshing retreat indeed
The house is nested in a quiet neighborhood, perfect for a retreat to the nature with family. It’s spacious for 5 people to stay, clean, simple, and nicely decorated, not tacky at all. The owner responded to our questions promptly. We enjoyed our stay at this house for 4 nights.

Perfect location, not private
We stayed for a month and intentionally booked a single family home for the space and expected privacy that comes along with a detatched 3 bedroom bouse. The house is lovely, beds comfortable and kitchen well equipped. It is perfectly located for touring Victoria and surrounding area. If you book this house, be aware the owner spends many nights sleeping in the detatched garage 10 feet from the front door with no notice or communication.

Hello, I am grateful, to everyone that visits. I will continue to prove and improve on the property. The garage which is positioned in a separate detached building on the property, is not part of the rental. A private office, is kept in there, in order to keep eyes on occupancy levels and to ensure parking and house rules are followed. You are welcome to use the yard at anytime front back and side. The house is located in a neighbourhood setting, there are houses all around. With spring and summer approaching I will be around looking after the lawn recycling and garbage. It is my hope you will and visit and enjoy every day. Thanks

Odd, but nice and well appointed
The house itself is very nice and has all the basic necessities included. However, it was quite obvious that the owner is handling the cleanings between stays himself — crumbs and general small floor debris; could use a good sweep and mop. The coffee maker was a disaster when we arrived — my father in law took it upon himself to deep clean before using. Again, the house itself is fantastic! The mattresses are all very very cozy, water pressure is great too! HOWEVER, discovering a stranger seemingly casing our vehicles in the driveway midway through our stay was quite alarming - especially when it turned out to be the owner Seymour who had apparently been sleeping in the tiny garage outside the front entrance of the house the whole time… Too creepy, never staying here again.

Relaxing yet close to town
Seymour’s house is a comfortable and relaxing stay which is a 15 minute walk to Butchart Gardens (find the shortcut through the woods on Google Maps!) and a short 25 minute drive to Victoria Harbor. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking our own dinners, the beds are comfortable and the back deck is wonderful for morning coffee or evening dinners, and for watching deer and other critters in the back yard. It’s an efficient base for exploring Vancouver Island, as we made drives to Port Renfrew, Sooke, Ladysmith and Duncan. Make sure you try Blue’s Bayou just a short walk down to Brentwood Bay. Grocery and specialty meat (Carnivores) and Seafood market next door to it is just a couple of KM away. We highly recommend Seymour’s property!

Decent place to stay
Communication with the owner was easy and he responded quickly. The property overall was good but it needs some maintenance (ice maker, fireplace not working) and could be cleaner (not swept under couch when hide-a-bed pulled out, etc). The beds were very comfortable and in good shape but the furniture is all worn. The pool table was a nice bonus.

Seymour was easy to communicate with for any issues or questions that came up. The neighborhood was very quiet and beautiful.

Seymour's home was perfect for our week of family exploration. The location was great for being able to explore everything we wanted to from downtown Victoria, to the famous glass beach in Sidney. The views from the decks were stunning, and the house was so spacious it was such a treat and perfect for our young kids to play throughout. For those of you wondering, there is a nice size yard in the back, big enough to play a bit of soccer or frisbee or what not. We will be back!

Fantastic Stay in Brentwood
What a very comfortable, family friendly house located just minutes from Butchart Gardens and great food. The kitchen was our central gathering spot, as was the dining room table that doubled as a puzzle and gaming table. Our teens loved the pool table and piano. (Our son loved the Apple TV) On our way home we talked about the need to go back to the same house but this time in the summer and bring our bikes and rent some kayaks in the bay. We also would have made better use of the deck furniture if it hadn't been a bit too cool. Best Thanksgiving week ever.

Our group of 6, 3 couples driving throughout Vancouver Island, stayed at this property and loved it! Comfortable beds, spotless kitchen and bathrooms, and a great porch to relax and put our feet up. We biked to Butchart gardens, and walked to the marina. We wish it was closer to Victoria, but weren't able to find any place closer that would accommodate 3 vehicles. So - this home was perfect for our group and the owner was easy to reach and communicate with!

Great Location.
We really enjoyed the location, the privacy, the kitchen, the BBQ and had excellent weather. There were five adults and a noticeable shortage of towels for morning showers was frustrating. The bathtub had a white powder all over it so I assumed it had not been cleaned. (As a result no one used the bath.) My daughters felt there were far too many notes posted everywhere explaining what to do and what not to do. The house manual should have been the place to do that. I suspect some renters don't know what we consider to be obvious things.

Hi Valerie, I am grateful you took the time to write a review. There where extra towels beside the soaker tub that where not used, as wells as extra towels in the upstairs hall closet. Perhaps I need to be more clear on where the extra towels are moving forward. The soaker tub was cleaned with Vim, and sometimes there is a white powder residue left behind. Sorry about that , I will try and do a better job of rinsing it off. The notes, are there to protect the guests and the property. Notes relating to emergency call numbers, 911, emergency natural gas issues, and water main shut off identification. I will continue to improve moving forward hope to welcome you back. Thanks

A perfect fit for us!!! Great place, owner owner, well equipped
Quiet, well equipped, comfortable, super clean, modern... what more is there. In the Victoria area, there really isn't anyplace that is far from anyplace, so if you like have some room to move, a well equipped place so you can feel comfortable spending time there, quiet, but close enough to access Victoria and services, this is a great place. For us, having a full kitchen was great for the 5 of us. We didn't need to make big meals, which we could have, but we could do all of the basics that a family of 5 would want. I'd stay here again in a heartbeat, and will. The owner is a great guy... just right. Perfect for our family group! Don't be afraid at all to book here!

Lovely home, good location
My family of four enjoyed our two night stay at "Castle in the Sky." It is apparent that the owner has spent time caring for the home; the woodwork is beautiful. We were a bit put off by all the instructive labels but having read the reviews, we were expecting it. Our two teenage boys loved the pool table. The home would benefit from some soft touches such as curtains and rugs in some rooms to absorb sound and filter light. The master bedroom was very bright in the morning, making it difficult to sleep in, although sleeping masks were provided. The kitchen was well equipped. The home is a short drive to a grocery store, 3 minutes from Butchart Gardens, about 1/2 hour from Victoria, and about 20 minutes from Sidney. Overall, I recommend this property.

Great location for a Sidney wedding
This was a lovely home. The pre check-in was thorough and there were no problems on arrival. The kitchen was well stocked although we did not prepare much food. The bedrooms were comfortable. The master bedroom is spacious and the bathroom great. There are no blinds or curtains so the morning sun wakes you quite early. There are eye shades to wear if you would like. The other two bedrooms have curtains which are frayed which was a contrast to the remainder of the home. The sofa bed was slightly uncomfortable and could use a memory foam topper. A lovely place to spend a few hours on the weekend!

Hi Mathew, I am grateful you took the time to write a review. Thank you for your suggestions. In regard to the master bedroom blinds.

The frayed curtains in the other two bedrooms could use replacement. Memory foam for the sofa bed is a good idea, as well. Best of luck, look forward to seeing you again.
