Comfortable and great location
We visited Parksville for a few days in September. With glorious weather, we were able to do multiples hikes and walks. The suite was compact but well maintained and supplied. Owners Rick and Doris were available although we had everything we needed. Would highly recommend this suite for your next vacation stay!

Lovely home close to everything!
Stayed here with my family including 2 young kids. The home is lovely - brand new, clean, has everything you could need and no clutter. The location was great - very close to Parksville Community Beach and also Rathtrevor. Would definitely stay here again. Love the blackout shades in the bedroom, the king sized bed, and the deep bathtub! The bedding was very cozy, and the pullout couch was decent.

Fantastic gem in Parksville
Spotlessly clean and well decorated home in Parksville. Would be great in the summer as it’s within walking to the city beach but on a side street, away from the summer traffic. Good local restaurants are nearby along with three grocery stores in case you want to take advantage of the full kitchen in the unit. Doris and Rick were welcoming hosts and I had zero issues during my stay. The pictures are exactly what you get. I’ll definitely be booking again when I need a place to stay in Parksville.

Great spot!
We had a lovely time in Parksville at this apartment. We are a family of 4 with two teenagers and found the place clean, well appointed, easy access to so many wonderful sites (Parksville Beach, Rathtrevor beach, Englishman River Falls, Cathedral Grove, Cameron Lake and short walking distance to dip into the Englishman River estuary which is very accessible for all). Our host was very friendly and helpful. We’d love to return and bring friends to share the adjoining unit and do some more exploring! Thank you for the hospitality!
