Farm Stay Great Stay!
We really enjoyed our time at Farm Stay. We were not around much, really only to sleep and have breakfast since we were touring the Sooke area and trying to fit everything we wanted to see into our 2 nights. However, the accommodation was excellent! Nothing to complain about and Derek has thought of all the little things that make it that much better. Ie: USB plugs bedside, coffee, condiments and chocolates available, nice bed linens and towels, lovely dishware etc. The location is very convenient for visiting areas of Sooke and the nature! Since we were not on site much, we didn’t get the experience meeting the animals which I would have loved! Well done Derek!

recent visit
The property was compact, quiet and clean with modern decor. The listing says that it is 1 bedroom and sleeps 4. We were 2 guests and it was a snug stay but I suspect that four guests could feel really cramped in this property. Not a complaint, just my opinion on what was advertised. Close to amenities and a lovely farm setting.

Great Spot!
Cute and Cozy suite! Sitting on a beautiful property. We really enjoyed our stay!
Super clean, tastefully decorated, very comfortable bed. Access to Gallopping Goose Trail, close to the water, close to several good paces to eat. Our first VRBO experience and it was great

Great property
We had a great stay! Clean and cozy vacation rental.
An absolute 10/10 experience, a beautiful little farm surrounding a comfortable and cozy place to stay! Across the road there are valuable amenities to buy fresh produce and treats, with the Stickleback bar and grill ~500m away. Far enough out of Sooke to avoid traffic but close enough that its hardly anything to get there, would recommend to anyone for a home away from home or a staging area for the great nature surrounding them!

Sooke Getaway
We wanted to come up to Sooke for a quick getaway and a little biking on the Galloping Goose and we couldn't have picked a better spot. Comfortable bed, hot shower, cold AC. what else do you need. It was convenient to everything but also out of the bustle of downtown.

False Advertising
This property was advertised and a bed and breakfast. It is not. No breakfast was provided.
Two large dogs on property with no heads-up. The dog pen area is what the kitchen window looked directly out on to. Same level as the dog pen ie: 10 feet away from our faces to theirs
These dogs barked up until 9:15pm the first night and again at 7:30am until I texted the host 20 minutes later. The host’s front door is directly adjacent to our front door so he would have known that the dogs were barking. He did bring the dogs inside when I texted to complain but they were barking AGAIN the following morning at 7:30am. This was a weekend stay. Both Saturday and Sunday morning were disturbed by the dogs barking.
Also, the fold out couch was not level and extremely small. I could not lay flat and I am only 5’5”. It was terribly uncomfortable. The suite was advertised as having a fold out couch. This was not an acceptable sleeping option.

Nice place to stay
Has all the essentials, no issues, and nice location.
My husband and I couldn't have picked a better spot. From the wonderful water fountain outside the bedroom window, to the wonderful welcome every time from the friendly young cat (Mint)? and the Galloping Goose Trail in behind, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you to Derek and Melissa for accommodating our needs.
