Maple Rise Guesthouse0

Hosts were very welcoming. Room was bright and clean with comfy beds. Breakfast was restaurant standard! However we would have preferred a choice maybe of two options incase member of the party couldn't eat what was served. Location is beautiful, a car is a must.

Breakfast was restaurant standard! However we would have preferred a choice maybe of two options incase member of the party couldn't eat what was served. Only thing to note is that the shared kitchen is located length ways behind each room, so if someone is making food/drinks in the evening/night or early morning, you could be disturbed.

From the moment we arrived we were welcomed and made to feel right at home. The room was very modern, clean and comfortable. Food was plentiful, wonderfully presented and delicious. We had many moments of pure relaxation in the serenity of the yard, the great bathtub and lounging in front of the fireplace. The access to the shared kitchen suited us to perfection!

There was not a thing we did not like. A full length mirror would have been wonderful. Accessibility was difficult with the stairs as we had lots of luggage for the dance competitions.

Everything was perfect and very amazing ! The host Lauren was very kind and helpful. The best breakfast we ever had , prepared with fresh and healthy food and every day a different - so delicious. The room with bathroom was very modern and very cleaned and well staffed. The garden and the view into the harbour opposite was very beautiful too :)))

Nothing

All parts of our stay were excellent. The location was quiet with a beautiful view of the marina. The premises had a well kept yard for guest use. The rooms, including the bathroom, were tasteful in design and well kept. The breakfast was excellent, with a variety of items for each day we stayed. There had been an issue on one occasion, which the host took care of immediately, to our satisfaction. We would highly recommend this guesthouse for anyone looking for a relaxing, tasteful vacation.

Lovely property and landscaping, quiet area with view of the bay, host was responsive, beautiful and cozy room, breakfasts were delicious, shared kitchenette had the essentials.

I would have liked a bathtub as I saw in one of the room's pictures, I booked the last available suite and didn't realize it was the suite without one. The rainfall shower was very nice though.

The included breakfast was PHENOMENAL! I would stay there again for the food alone. LOL Staff were friendly but gave you your space. Wifi worked great and gorgeous views. We used the BBQ they had one site and had a lovely dinner overlooking the water on the second day. Definitely recommend!!!

It'd be nice if there were a bath tub in each suite, but the shower was dope! Rainfall style and very roomy. No complaints! Thee suite still gorgeous and super roomy/comfy.

The guesthhouse was a wonderful place to stay, The room was spacious, accommodating, and well furnished. The bathroom has a great shower but you don't want to get out of it (room 2). Breakfasts were beautifully presented, varied and very tasty. Although the guesthouse is located in a subdivision of large lots and houses, the rooms were at the back facing the garden and had views of the water and marina. and were very quiet. The outdoor area had a great place to eat the delicious breakfast and enjoy the view. I could see that even in rainy weather some of the outside area could be enjoyed as a sundeck covered the areas outside the rooms. The small communal kitchen was very handy with a dishwasher, microwave, kettle, dishes and other items.

I think the air circulation could have been better at night but a fan was available in the room to address this but we didn't want to spoil the peace and quiet.

Friends had recommended the Maple Rise guesthouse to us and we had a wonderful 2-nights stay. Exceptionally clean, comfortable, cozy and quiet. The thoughtfully equipped guest kitchen was a great bonus. The breakfast was amazing and Lauren did a fantastic job accommodating my husband's gluten-free diet.

Exceptional stay at Maple Rise. Go for the luxurious room, beautiful view, incredible garden with tons of bird -including a few hummingbirds that are flying just next to the table- and one of the best breakfasts we had in all hotels, b&b and Airbnb we visited in the world. Plus, you have access to a shared kitchen. And I got the chance to try Saltspring soaps. Wow! We had such a wonderful, relaxing stay and we’re very happy that we decided to stay 2 nights to enjoy Cowichan Bay region. We had one dinner there to enjoy the bay view and animals wandering and had breakfast on the terrace every morning watching the lovely birds playing around. You will be a 5-min drive from a very rewarding hike and 20-30min to many farms and wineries. A must if you visit Vancouver Island!

Only missing a mirror in the main room. Everything else was perfect!

The breakfast was exceptional. Many options and delicious. Different every day. The room was very well appointed, modern and very clean.

I was asked to strip my own bed which might be covid related even though a 15% cleaning fee is added. I was on a timeline and was stressed to get the sheets off the bed and folded. Not a great ending to the otherwise wonderful stay.
