A wonderful suite with lots of attention to details to make your stay comfortable. We spent hours lounging on the deck watching the waves and listening to the birds. I would jump at the chance to spend another vacation there.
Perfectly central to all the mid island adventures you may want to experience. Very clean and up to date with everything required to make it an easy stay.
Perfect in any and all ways possible. Christina was accessible as needed, but was in no way intrusive. We've stayed in many VRBOs, and this was the most thoughtfully designed and provisioned. Our stay was a delight and we look forward to our return!
We had a fabulous stay of 4 weeks (!) in Courtenay in this beautiful and very comfortable house. Great views, with everything we needed, and great neighbours (the owners). Great value for money, weâre certainly coming back!
We had a great time at Alderâs Beach House! Itâs close to the ocean with beautiful views and nice cool breezes, and easy to get to beaches and hiking. The coach house is clean, modern and has everything you need. A great place to escape the summer heat!
We had an excellent stay. The accommodation was clean with all amenities. The hostess went out of her way to be accommodating. This place is beautiful with a great view of passing cruise ships. The wild blackberries growing in the yard were delicious. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a nice relaxing holiday.
My husband and I did a 4 night stay with our two dogs. We all felt instantly comfortable, absorbed being in birdsong, mountain view in the distance and water that's ever changing! The accommodation was so easy to acquaint ourselves with, allowing us to easily make meals and clean up. Hiking was steps outside, we had such a fun and relaxing stay and look forward to doing it again!!
The home is wonderful. Designed to accommodate every need. Christina is one of the best hosts weâve met. The location is peaceful, connected to nature and super relaxing. Local walks and hikes to the ocean and forests are so accessible. I can highly recommend.
Everything was so streamlined and welcoming. The host was responsive. The property was extremely well equipped and comfortable. Elegance and comfort were the guiding principles it seems to me in making this vacation spot so amenable. Many thanks for sharing Alder House with us.
I absolutely loved my stay at Alderâs beach house - it is a beautiful modern home that is stocked with everything one could want. The furnishings and linens are upscale and very comfortable, Christina was an exceptionally gracious host who made sure I had everything I needed and was friendly and approachable - I feel like I have made a new friend! I am very much looking forward to my next stay and highly recommend this property to anyone who is fortunate enough to find it available to book.
Absolutely stunning property with a beautiful view of the ocean. Walking distance to a spectacular provincial park with scenic walking trails. We had the most wonderfully relaxing vacation and made the most of the well stocked kitchen. This place is truly beautiful and we cant wait to come back again. Thank you to our kind and gracious host Christina.
This welcoming, comfortable and well equiped property could not be improved. We weathered a winter atmospheric river during our stay, but even so managed long (wet) walks and were able to relax. The local shops for food are a drive away, so that has to be born in mind if you want to limit car travel. Otherwise parks, beaches etc. are all accessible by foot. Note: we did walk 15-20,000 steps a day, so accessible may be a relative term...
A beautiful perfectly sized property. Appointed with everything one might need, right down to most comfortable bed mattresses, Nespresso coffee, indoor and outdoor living space, laundry, you name it. Proximity to, and views of the water are stunning. Christina was wonderful. Close to many walking trails and sight seeing opportunities. A definite "put this on our list" property.
We had a fantastic stay at Alderâs Beach House. The area is great for exploring nature parks, beaches, local towns such as Comox, Courtenay and Campbell River.
The property is perfect, very comfy, high end finishes and the kitchen has everything you need.
We enjoyed the terrace and were able to sit out with a glass of wine and look out over the water.
Watch out for the hummingbirds that visit the flower pots!
We had great communication with Christina, will definitely be back next time we are on Vancouver Island.
Our family of 4 (2 adults and 2 kids aged 15 and 14) and our dog really enjoyed our 4 night stay. The property is clean, quiet, well stocked and beautifully kept. One of the best properties we have stayed in with VRBO. The property is just a short walk to the beach, and a short drive to walking trails that the whole family and our dog enjoyed. The view from the expansive deck is stunning and the wind off the ocean was welcomed and enjoyed during the summer heat wave. Thank you for sharing your property with us Christina. We would not hesitate to come back again.
Our stay was amazing. The owner got back to us right away confirming our stay, everything exceeded our expectations from check-in, to amenities and property location. We were able to hike some amazing hikes all within 5-30 minutes from us. We loved our mornings lounging overlooking the ocean. We used propane fire table on deck to keep us warm on cold days and the owners responded right away when we needed more propane. I highly recommend this home for comfort and convenience to many attractions in area. Thanks Christine and Mike for your outstanding hospitality. We will be back. Linda and Con
Just returned from a week at Aldergrove. Very happy with out stay and wish we could have stayed longer.
The house is lovely and very well equipped. Lots of modern touches. There were a few, like the usb ports in the electical outlets, that I'm goingt to see about installing in our house.
The furniture was comfortable, including the king bed. As most of who use vacation rentals know a bed can make or break a stay.
The view was lovely and the deck made to take advantage of it. There was even a child gate at the top of the stairs so we didn't have to worry about our dog making the break for freedom. The only thing we found lacking was a table on the deck for outdoor dining, which is something we really enjoy. The teak patio furniture was quite comfortable and the dining area was just inside so it's not a huge issue.
Squire our dog had a wonderful time too. He enjoyed sharing tale wags with Alder the roof dog and is not attempting to convince us to allow him on our roof (not going to happen).
A warm, inviting and modern space to stay. The deck was amazing, with views of the water and of two very special birds building their nest in the tree out front. Well stocked, well appointed and clean as can be in a quiet neighborhood. Just a few meters down to the water and walks on the shoreline. Easy trips to town or to Mt. Washington from here. We can't wait to come back.
We had such a special stay at this property. The attention to detail was incredible, the house is stocked with everything you could need, and the view is stunning. Our children didn't want to go home! We hope to return soon.
We had a lovely peaceful time at Alderâs Beach House. The area is a paradise of beauty with amazing views and sunrises that you wonât quickly forget.
The house is comfy with all you need for a comfortable stay.
Our desire was quiet and away from the hustle of the city. It is the perfect spot to rejuvenate.
Thank you for making us feel so welcome Christine, it was truly a pleasure.
