Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Central Saanich

We had a lovely, peaceful stay. It was less than a 5 minute drive to some overlooks for beautiful sunsets. The tree net was fun and unique. It was strikingly quiet! The bathhouse worked just fine, close to the cabin and clean. The shower was nice and stocked with toiletries. The cabin was a perfect place to stay while exploring San Juan Island. Close to Lime Kiln by car. It was our first time visiting and we enjoyed cozying up in the cabin after a day of hiking or exploring. The French press and coffee were a major plus! We were charmed by the island and by the cabin. I frankly loved having no cell service (true for most of SJI for me—tip to Verizon users!), it was a forced disconnect. I downloaded the Google map in advance so I could use it offline, which was helpful in navigating. Raeleen was proactive with instructions and texted to check in after our first night. Thank you so much and we hope to visit again someday! Highly recommend if you want to go off the grid and recharge!

Staying at Jason’s place was a pleasure. He was very responsive and flexible with check-in check out. Kudos to whoever designed and furnished the space. The design was super swanky and really helped us escape for our island visit. The bed and bedding was super comfortable. The shower was spacious with great dual showerheads. Best part is the location as it’s super walkable into town and we found a shortcut where we could take a short walk to the local brewery . Wonderful design great space.

One of the best houses we have ever stayed at. Beautiful, comfortable with an outstanding view. Perfect place to celebrate my birthday with my daughters! It was a glorious weekend! Thank you Lori!

Gerry was incredibly polite and genuine throughout our stay, making it truly comfortable and enjoyable. He was very friendly and kind to us as foreign guests, responding quickly whenever we had any concerns. I believe the host's character is crucial when using Airbnb, and this place is absolutely outstanding in that regard. The house was wonderful - everything we needed was provided, and we never felt like we were missing anything. The stylish kitchen and bedrooms made us feel elegant and relaxed every day, and my entire family was completely satisfied. The surrounding area is fantastic - rich in nature and remarkably quiet both day and night. There's a playground nearby, which is great for families with young children. This was our first family trip using Airbnb, and thanks to Gerry, it was an amazing experience. Our son loved the house so much that he cried because he didn't want to leave, so we're definitely planning to come back again.

Josie was a fantastic host. Flexible, responsive, and helpful in providing local recommendations for an area we were new to. The house and property are beautiful, peaceful, and unique. Can't recommend highly enough!

We enjoyed our stay very much! The place was exactly as described and the views were spectacular. Evelyn was a great host. She informed us of everything we needed and more. We had forgotten a sweater at the place and Evelyn was so kind to mail it to us.

This was the second time we stayed at the Haidaway each stay was for a full month. Clearly we love it there, lovely accommodation in a super location. We did lots of hiking and sightseeing. Five stars all the way!

We have always wanted to stay in a tiny home. Shipjack Island was perfect for the two of us! I think it has the best view out of the group. The space is beautifully decorated and we loved all the windows! We saw a Great Horned Owl every night, the full moon rising, so many birds, deer, and the drive into town is simple and short. One of the highlights of our PNW trip!

We had a nice stay of three weeks at this Airbnb. The location is perfect, just a short drive from Victoria as well as close to stunning hiking trails. The place was very clean. We liked that it had a large TV in the living room and another one in the master bedroom. The gas fireplace in the living room was perfect for taking the chill off of the downstairs area in the morning, the only time we felt we needed to use it. The master bedroom was spacious with lots of closet space and drawers. We used the second bedroom as an office, and liked that there was enough space for two people to work. The upstairs bathroom featured a huge walk-in shower that was a real treat. We also enjoyed meeting the owner and his friendly dog, Biscuit, who live next door. We thought this airbnb was very reasonably priced and recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway.

Ryan’s place was great! Felt like staying in a tiny home. Everything was laid out nicely and was functional. He graciously offered us to hang out in the property and it was very beautiful. He was also responsive and very accommodating. Would recommend! However it would not be a good space to stay if you have mobility problems (accessing the loft area). For us it worked out great!

Beautiful view well equipped kitchen bed was very comfy quiet location

Lovely weekend away, the place had everything we needed. The outdoor spaces are great, the private dock and fire pit were perfect. Would stay here again!

We like coming back to Catherine’s. It feels like home. Beautiful and quiet and a hammock as well.

Amazing experience from start to finish. Easy, simple and a property that exceeded our expectations. The view is second to none. The place is very comfortable and well laid out inside and out. Everything was awesome and I’d highly recommend a stay. It wil not disappoint.

Incredibly immaculate place, looks exactly like the pictures, place was spotless and perfectly equipped, host was immediately responsive and helped us with all our needs. Location was great and convenient.

The place was really cozy and private. The view was amazing! We loved our stay there and Karli always was responsive:) She also has really friendly cat which kept us company in Karli’s lovely garden:)

We had a lovely stay in the tree house. It's truly unique and a cozy, comfortable, place to stay surrounded by natural beauty. We enjoyed visiting the local farmers market and exploring East Sooke Regoinal Park. I hope to go back!

We really loved our stay at Michele's. The property is beautiful with tons of wildlife and really well located so it was easy to walk to various places. We hope to stay here again

Gorgeous space and location! Having 2 outdoor spaces with lots of seating was amazing. The beds are comfy; the windows make it seem like you are in the trees. Great little book with tips for the area. I would stay again!

We had a wonderful stay at Marissa’s cozy cabin! The beautiful woodwork and fresh wood smell made the place feel warm and inviting from the moment we walked in. The bedrooms were cute, comfy, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. We especially loved the outdoor fire pit for evenings under the stars, and the indoor chimney added the perfect touch of charm. The games were a fun bonus too! Highly recommend for a peaceful and cozy getaway.

Extremely relaxing and secluded spot. Friendly host. Lots of nature. The home had everything we needed for our stay. Would book again.

We loved our stay. It is the perfect little spot to relax. We loved listening to all the birds and making use of the lovely fire pit. It was a great ‘home-base’ to check out Botanical Beach and the Sooke potholes. It’s exactly as pictured and described.

Great, cute little spot! Ideally you need to be comfortable climbing up and down a tall ladder (the bed is in a loft). While it did feel very sturdy, I can imagine it may be more challenging for much older folks or those less coordinated. We loved our stay!! Would come back!

Amazing experience! We had a wonderful stay here. The place was clean, and we enjoyed using the kayaks and paddle boards. The hot tub was spacious, and the hosts were responsive and supportive throughout our stay. We’ll definitely go back again in the summer.
