Wonderful time!
We had a wonderful stay at Falcon rest. The place was clean and well equipped with everything we needed for our 6 days. We had our two little ones (1.5 and 3.5 yrs), and the place was perfect. There was a pack and play and some toys and books to keep them busy. The fenced in back deck was like a giant play pen, it was awesome. The location couldn’t be better, within 10 min of so much outdoor fun (beach, hikes, parks). We loved our stay, and Gene and Patricia were excellent hosts!

Great quiet location for family stay
We enjoyed our multi- generational family stay in this well organized, clean home . The children’s toys and books in closet were a bonus. A mile walk to Rathtrevor beach through coastal forest. Quiet, safe neighborhood with pool, and minigolf recommend!

Remillard Short Stay
Overall the property was great. I hope you don't mind, but I cleared out the lazy susan cabinet for my own food. That would be my only suggestion - to leave one full cabinet empty for guests to use. Otherwise, the kitchen and bathrooms were well equipped. The fans were appreciated, although if we stayed there during a heat wave, it would be difficult. The kids lived in the pool - so that was a great feature. And parking for 2 vehicles is also much appreciated. Overall, I would stay here again for sure.

Great vacation place
This property was great for our family vacation. It is well equipped for daily living and very comfortable. It was a quiet neighbourhood. The back deck was a great extension of the living space. Fans were in each room for when it got hot. Sand toys, a cooler and chairs to take to the beach were really appreciated. With children, ages 4 and 6, we drove to the Rathtrevor Park, just a few minutes away, which has a beautiful sandy beach. Great memories were created. Thanks Gene and Pat for providing a wonderful holiday home.

Fabulous!
This was the most amazing home for some of our family that came from Calgary and Australia to spend time with us! It was superbly stocked, set up so well and filled with extras that were perfect for a family with a 5 yr old and a 3 yr old and any adults. Toys and puzzles etc made the little ones feel at home.The owners were very easy to work with and we would be thrilled to rent this unit again if it is available. Having this home away from home for our visiting family helped make our Xmas a very special one!

Owners had thought of everything. It was nice to have a welcoming Sav Blanc. Patio is private and quiet . Family liked that you had Netflix. I cannot think of anything that needed to be changed. I very much appreciated that the owners gave a separate number to contact as they were away. We did not need to call them. I and my family highly recommend this property ;I wished we could have stayed longer

Absolutely Wonderful
This three bedroom cottage was everything we had wanted and needed to enjoy a wonderful visit with family. The spacious, fenced back patio was lovely. Any inquiries were answered promptly by the hosts. A travel cot/ play yard with linens and some toys were provided and we brought our own high chair. The on site pool was lovely to use on a rainy day. Loved the proximity to the road access and the recycling for easy daily clean up.

Great Location
Great central location on the island for us as we wanted to be able to head to Tofino or up to Courtenay/Comox or to just hang out at an awesome beach. Having two teenagers, it was nice for them to each have their own space. We also enjoyed the pool and hot tub every night we were there. Excellent facility. Owners were wonderful to deal with, check in/out procedures were clear and simple. We ate most of our meals at the cottage and were happy that the kitchen was well equipped with what we needed in order to do so. We rarely travel to the same places twice, but if we did, we would definitely stay here again.
