The Host responded to all our inquires quickly. Initial access to the suite was easy and Dan welcomed us when we arrived. The suite is well equipped with lots of dishes and flatware. Parking is at the front door. Overall, a great stay.
This has been the second time I have here on this property. It is no my home away from home when visiting family in the area. It is quiet, very clean and Dan is a very attentive host. Would recommend this stay. 21.

This property is definitely a gem!
I travelled with my 2 kids and we had a terrific stay. In fact, I don’t think we could have found a better place to stay. Everything was perfect for what we needed.
Dan is an excellent host & we will absolutely stay here again.
This was a great quiet 2 bedroom apartment off the beaten track. Duncan was only 15 minutes away will all services, restaurants, stores, and great bohemian feel. Great biking and hiking within minutes of your front door. The place had all the needed amenities and the host was great.
We were a group of 4 Adults and we really enjoyed our stay! The View is Wonderful! The walk down to the beach and back was a work out for me (68 yr) but, it was a good way to wake up our day, stay in shape and good conversation with family as we walked. We really enjoyed the access to the BBQ, had family over, slept comfortably and relaxed. Really appreciated our host who helped us with whatever we needed. Our Second time staying and we definitely will be back in the future!
Thanks, Dan!
The suite contained everything for a great stay. Beds were amazing, excellent shower and kitchen facilities.
Dan was a great host with good communications. We'll take advantage of the bike storage garage next time we visit.
Sitting outside in nice weather the view is spectacular!
We were so happy to find this beautiful rental! Our 2 week stay was so cozy and relaxing. Stunning views with a peaceful atmostphere, we even greeted by some local deer. With a quick drive to many different towns and attractions made this spot very convenient for our stay. Top notch and we'll definitely be staying here for our next visit. Thank you!
This is a wonderful place to stay. Gorgeous view of the ocean, clean suite and comfortable beds. Definitely wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone. Host and hostess were amazing, friendly and accomodating.

Great location & well appointed accommodation for anyone looking for peace & quiet. Short distance away from services & various dining options. Perfect jumping off point for visit to Salt Spring Island adventures. Dan is a gracious & informative host. Looking forward to our return soon.
We came to the island for a wedding. Crofton was a great location for us. It was very quiet at night. We could sit outside in the evenings and watch the activity cities in the harbour. Dan was very accommodating and friendly.
Place was perfect for our family. Very comfortable, clean and had everything we needed. Dan was a great host! Thank you again. DH

About the host
Hosted by Dan Robin
We love to travel on two wheels and in four as well! Meet great people everywhere we go and thought it a great way to meet more, is to host. We built this amazing home only minutes from the ocean and the view is beautiful. Osborne Bay is an active harbour with BC Ferry, large ships as well as pleasure craft always on the go. Lived in this community for over 30 years and know the area very well. Great mountain biking and road cycling all around here as well as the Trans Canada Trail only 10 minutes drive. The town is quaint and quiet with friendly people walking the boardwalk or relaxing at a pub or great diner. Wineries all around as well as distillers now so it makes for an enjoyable weekend retreat area as well. Take a look at the towns info on Google. Its a gem and worth a visit!
