Beautiful, super clean home, stocked with plenty of anything you might need including breakfast items. Perfect location for exploring and close to the ocean with plenty of nice restaurants all close by. The deer grazing by the front door everyday was an added bonus. Great hosts, thank you for such a wonderful home away from home.
We had a lovely long weekend stay at Elk Lodge. The host Darryl was gracious and communicative. We thoroughly enjoyed our Sooke stay and would recommend Darryl’s place!
Such an amazing place, highly recommend .. 5 Stars
Stayed for 2 nights in April/25, the rental home itself in in New condition and very comfortable, kitchen comes fully equipped. It is situated in an acreage/farm type setting with Chickens, emus and other animals close by. A dozen fresh eggs and bread awaited us upon arrival such a nice gesture. We have stayed many places in the Sooke area over the last 15 Yrs and have to say this is one of our favorites. Owner was great to deal with, great communication. Will definitely go back again soon. Thanks again for a great stay... Gerald & Stephina , Westlock Ab.

Great place! Love the layout and cleanliness. Quiet and easy to find. Loved seeing the deer and bunnies in the yard. We will be back again!
From the time we arrived to the time we left it was perfect. The thoughtfulness of having fresh eggs, bread and butter on our arrival was a nice touch. The stay had everything that you could possibly want. Nothing was a problem for our hosts. We would highly recommend a stay at Elk Lodge. Another highlight was watching the deer and elk wandering around.
Property was private, being set back from the main road. Lots of animal activity to observe. The house was well laid out, very well provisioned with lots of little extras which were very much appreciated. and so bright and sunny. Beds were super comfortable. Our host Darryl was very responsive and accommodating. Loved absolutely everything (except the driveway).
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this peaceful, well-equipped guest house! The farm animals were fun to watch and we had regular visits from deer & elk. The washing machine & dryer were a treat coming off camping, and the farm fresh eggs in the fridge were a lovely touch. The beds were comfy & our kids loved drawing at the desk overlooking the living room. The main space is a bit tight to navigate, but has everything we needed to be comfortable during our stay.
I have never booked anything like this before. Hosts were very helpful and answered all my questions. Booked 3 guests as we were coming from Ontario. grandkids who live in the area sleeping over was not a problem. House was clean and ready for us earlier then check-in as our plane landed early
This place exceeded all our expectations. It was clean, stylish decorated, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was perfect, close to amenities and attractions nearby while also feeling like we weren’t even in town (love the acreage/cabin feel). We wish we could have stayed longer! Darryl and his wife are fantastic - friendly, responsive and made us feel welcome. We highly recommend Elk Lodge to anyone visiting Sooke! 5 stars isn’t enough, we’d give it 10 if we could! Thank you for a fantastic stay!
Elk Lodge is a rare find. The long driveway leads you to a rural oasis where you can see a variety of farm animals from your new, very well maintained separate house. The vacation house is well away from the main house. Darryl was a great host and
fresh farm eggs in the refrigerator was a nice touch. Be sure to ask Darryl to show you the farm animals. Elk and deer were daily visitors in March.
The propane fire table was a nice feature allowing you to stay out a bit longer at night and enjoy the stars and the tree frog chorus.
