This home worked out wonderful for us. We were down there with two couples for an RV show. And a couple days of Sightseeing if anything that we would’ve wished to have it would’ve been in the queen bedroom with no closet that there could’ve been a rack to hang clothes on at least or some hooks as we had to use. Other closets was a little bit inconvenient but otherwise the home was very nice.

Last minute business trip. Was going to be in town for week and had coworkers coming and going the tire time so a hotel wouldn’t have worked. Location was awesome. House was clean and well stocked. Perfect place to come “home” to after some very long and stressful days.

A great little house near the beach and about 20 mins to downtown the outdoor space and backyard would be great in spring or summer we had a great visit and fun Seattle moments!!!!

Great villa good size for 6 people Good size pool that was heated villa was same as pictures we would definitely recommend everything was straightforward we had a great family stay Thank you recreation for hosting us 😀

This place was spectacular. We had kids and babies with us and had enough room for all of us. The best parts was the fire pit and the yoga “retreat” room we got to use. Loved that it was brand new and close to Vancouver. Would definitely recommend it. We can’t wait to use it in the summer.

Amazing modern home tucked in the woods within a residential neighborhood very secure and very peaceful with views of Howe Sound and surrounding mountains! We enjoyed the fact that it felt remote but was close (about 12 mins) to Squamish which has all amenities as well as Sea to Sky gondola a must for travelers that enjoy outdoor explorations and unique beauty where coastal BC meets the coast ranges! The house was so comfortable with heated flooring and the deck was great even with the winter rains but would be an excellent spot for spring or summer travels too! And the communication was excellent! Thanks Goat Ridge folks!

The house was new and very clean inside and out. The hosts were very responsive and got us a few things we requested almost immediately, which made our stay very enjoyable. Roomy kitchen and well-equipped. Nice bathrooms and space to spread out. The fenced yard was a real plus and afforded us both privacy and security. Would stay here again.

I would 100% stay here again, ESPECIALLY for the price that I paid. This house is very family friendly and affordable. I will definitely keep this home in mind the next time I am in Orlando.
