Quiet oasis steps from the Sooke River.

A Gem Exceptional. Make use of the trails, drive to the beaches, discover the community. This cottage is a gem of a home. It’s beautifully finished, conveniently appointed and a lovely escape from the city.

The perfect transitional home For 3 months I had the pleasure, to be a guest at Laura and Steve's lovely cottage. It was the perfect place for me to settle back into my Canadian life, after being abroad for a few years. The cottage met all my needs: private, with nature all around and my must-haves: coffee machine and internet :) The cottage has a well-equipped kitchen with modern appliances and in-suite laundry. It's spacious and tastefully west coast-style furnished and decorated. I felt very much at home there. Laura couldn't have been any kinder and sweeter. Was always quick to respond and help with whatever needed. Laura and Steve are wonderful hosts and I can only recommend their accommodation. Especially for those who want to actively explore the Westcoast beauty, with Galloping Goose trail literally in front of your doorstep, beaches, hiking trails, Sooke potholes and so much more. Thank you guys, for everything!

Paradise! Our stay was absolutely impeccable. The property has such a warm and welcoming feeling, and the owners have put a lot of love and care into the River House. I love the sustainable development of the property. We spent a beautiful day at the Sooke Potholes and couldn't have asked for a better home and place to vacation.

Perfect stay Place has everything. Good taste of decoration. Even have EV charger available. Highly recommended.

Great nature experiences Great for hiking, nature experiences and kayaking

A Dream Stay at the River House Laura and Steve’s property is absolutely stunning! Not only is this VRBO beautifully located for a West Coast holiday, it’s clear that the hosts have poured love into every aspect of their space… down to the tiniest detail! We felt wholly at home and cared for throughout our stay. Our pup included! Who loved lounging in the fenced yard and snuggling up on the pet-provided blankets! We truly enjoyed every moment spent at the River House and can’t wait to return one day. Thank you so so much for making our stay, and intimate elopement, so incredible!
