Everything that was promised, nice to have a separate bedroom for privacy. 2 bathrooms with amazing shower pressure. Can’t say enough about the views to see the city of Vancouver. It was fun to watch the floathome go up and down with the tide. Very little movement. Gated community was a nice touch for security.

This was a truly remarkable experience. The floating home is peaceful and located in a cute neighborhood with beautiful views. We saw sea lions, fish, and moon jellyfish from the front window. The seabus to downtown Vancouver is a short and scenic walk away. Capilano Suspension Bridge Park is about a ten minute drive. The house was in perfect condition and the communication was incredibly detailed and helpful! I've stayed in a lot of short term vacation rentals, and this experience is definitely top of the list. I highly recommend and am so grateful for our time in this floating home!

We had a lovely time in our floating home in North Vancouver. The place is small but very comfortable. It is well equipped and has a beautiful view. It is so convenient to be a short walk to the Seabus. Beds were so comfortable and the area quiet and safe. Highly recommend.

Stay was awesome. From booking, checking in, and checking out. Kris was very prompt replying to any questions we had. The area is very quiet, calming and relaxing. It is very close to the sea bus, and bus transportation. Numerous restaurants and grocery stores nearby. Simply a great location. The check in process can be a little overwhelming at first. You have to locate a lock box for the key, you have to pass through a secured parking lot which had no attendant to ask any questions, you have to find the gate to enter as it is a secure access to the float homes (which has a number code and at first seemed to be a hit or miss, but worked fine for the duration of the trip), and there is a code to the main entrance to the float home and a key to the unit. Once we checked in, this process became routine and was fine. Plus, walking the Spirit Trail eliminates the parking lot and gates which maybe locked. We did not have a vehicle, so did not need to use the parking lot at all. The only recommendation I would have is issuing more than 1 key. We were two couples, and the unit has only one key, which became an additional challenge with orchestrating individual outings. I did notice that the door to the unit has a keypad, so implementing use of this would eliminate this issue. A second key could not be issued according to the information binder. Overall, a great experience and I would return to this property and recommend it.

The Float Home was a perfect base for our stay in North Vancouver. Safe, secure, and the views were unbeatable. It was a perfect place to unwind after a busy day. It was an easy walk to the restaurants and activities at the Quay. I was so impressed with all the amenities at the float home, and we took full advantage of the kitchen, dishwasher and laundry to keep our family of 5 going for the weekend. Thanks so much Kris! We would stay here again 100%.
