Char was able to take us last minute and kindly open up a room so that we would have somewhere comfortable to stay with our dogs before doing a multi day backpacking trip. She was fantastic and the property was perfect for what we needed.

Char (host) was super friendly and helpful. It had everything you needed; fridge, cooking appliances, good showers, comfortable bed. For the price you are getting more than what you are paying for!! Highly recommend and will be staying again when passing through Alberni:)
