The view was the outstanding feature of this rental. The owner was helpful and friendly. There was a fully equipped kitchen in our apt. It was a short drive to shopping. The driveway is extremely steep but parking was good once you got up there.

We loved the views and the host was nice, but the patio furniture was cheap, our room had a strong smell of propane, which gave me a headache and the coffee 'bar' in our room had no creamers, just a container of coffee mate that had an expiry date of 2018 (which they had taped over!) There was little to no interaction between us and our hosts and they didn't even bother to say goodbye to us or the other guests when we were getting ready to leave. We won't be back.

Someone previously said this was not a traditional B&B and it isn’t BUT personally I believe it’s better as you really have the equivalent of a 1 bedroom apartment with fridge, tea & coffee making, microwave all available. The bedroom is huge and has a TV. The bathroom is also large with a good shower and a bath. Place is very clean and finally.. The view is TREMENDOUS!!!! The view from the balcony is something else and you can look right down to Mt. Baker and across to Vancouver City and Squamish. A very good stay and I would recommend it to anyone who is all driving as it is on top of the hill and a steep walk up the roads. Not very close to shops and the town centre would be the only thing I think is a downside,
