Guest Reviews

• Karlene (10/5): - Pictures on the web site do not do this accommodation justice. It is stunning, and the inside is so cozy and comfortable.
• Krystal (10/5): - Breakfasts were a highlight for sure. Lovely property, quiet area and we enjoyed our time on Salt Spring.
• Kayleigh (10/5): - The breakfast was consistently the best food we’ve had on Salt Spring Island—stay for the breakfast alone! It’s a beautiful, private space amidst old growth forest. The secluded hot tub and patio to sit on were amazing, it was like being in a fairy tale. There’s also an outdoor shower, which was a great pairing with the hot tub. Sue was a top tier host. She waited up late for us to come in from the ferry, gave our dog treats every morning with breakfast, and was very accommodating for our dog’s needs. And it’s a gated yard so our dog could roam as he wanted! The location is within 8-10 minutes of the Ganges, with lots of beaches and hiking trails a short drive away. It’s hard for me to imagine a better place to stay on the island. The suite was spacious, lots of lighting, with the candles & fireplace making it extra romantic. FYI, there is no tv, which is great for an unplugged getaway. Overall, we’ve loved our stay here, very relaxing.
• James (8/5): - Lovely host and nice private suite. Hot tub was a nice added bonus.
• Kelsey (10/5): Great stay - Stunning oasis with super kind hosts. The breakfast was outstanding.
• Tamera (10/5): - Yummy breakfast to start the day after a very cozy sleep in The Carriage House.
• Christopher (10/5): Awesome stay - Totally amazing stay. Excellent hosts.!!!! We loved it.!!
• Stephen (8/5): - Great stay on Salt Spring. Short drive into town. Pet Friendly. Courteous and friendly owner. There is no TV, so enjoying R&R time is not an issue. Nice place to stay if you're considering looking for a place on Salt Spring
• diane (10/5): - Great place, wonderful hosts and better breakfasts than I have had at five star hotels.
• Dailyn (10/5): - This is such a lovely home base while exploring Salt Spring. It's clean, large, comfortable, and the
• Doug (10/5): - We enjoyed out stay, highlights included the fenced yard for our pup to roam freely and safely, the two person hot tub, delicious breakfast and our kind hosts; Sue, Chris & little Henry.
• Vanessa (8/5): - Sue and Chris run a wonderful little B&B in their carriage home above their detached garage. Guests have their own entrance, fenced garden, hottub and outdoor seating area. Sue brings you the most delicious homemade breakfasts in the morning. We had scones, muffins, granola, fruit salad and an eggs benny hash over our 2 night stay. She even included a little treat for our dog each morning. The bathroom fan does turn on and off through the night, so if you are a light sleeper, maybe bring earplugs. Overall, a wonderful place to stay, a block and a half from the lake. Would definitely stay there again in the future.
• Verified traveler (8/5): We will return - We had a lovely stay in the Garden Room. Wonderful breakfasts delivered to the room via a "dumb waiter " type device. Comfortable bed, relaxing hot tub, spacious room and bathroom. The only negative was hearing footsteps from above in the morning and evening, very definite footsteps. Very nice hostess
• Tom and Lynn (10/5): - It was quiet, inviting, clean and hosts were friendle and welcoming .
• Nelly (10/5): - Wonderful breakfast. Very friendly people.
• Gail (10/5): - Perfect location for our first visit to Salt Springs. Lovely room, with a hot tub outside by beautiful gardens. Private, quiet, close to town. AND the perfect breakfast served to start off our day! Thank-you for an amazing stay !
• April (10/5): - Amazing breakfasts! Nice and peaceful backyard to enjoy the hottub in!
• Whitney (6/5): - Very clean suite inside and friendly hosts. Originally we had booked the other suite, for privacy and quiet. Upon arrival we’re told there was a leak and we had been placed in the other suite. While I do appreciate the hosts having us, it would have been nice to have been made aware of this prior to arrival as we would’ve chose to stay elsewhere. We had saw a bbq in the original listing we booked, but since we had to switch, had no access to bbq and couldn’t use any of the food we brought for the trip. The spot we were put was completely different from the original we booked, and was right beneath where the hosts lived, something we wanted to avoid. Unfortunately we weren’t offered a discount or anything of the sort. Hot tub could use a good clean. Breakfast both days was great.

• Mark (10/5): - The Salt Spring Carriage House B & B is a fantastic home away from home! It is quiet and comfortable. If you're thinking that you need AC, you really don't because the suite stays cool and a fan is available. The breakfasts are fun and amazing! Each morning the light in the secret cupboard goes on and you are treated to the most delicious and filling breakfasts! Sue and Chris are amazing hosts who are available to answer any questions, if needed. Otherwise, it is a relaxing, peaceful and idyllic setting on Salt Spring Island. We can't wait to go back!
