Excellent family getaway
Spent a week with my family. Location is right by the water with great views. Kids thoroughly enjoyed the property and activities in the area. The hosts were very responsive and accommodating! Would definitely stay again.

This is the second year my toddler and I have visited Parksville and stayed in the suite. No frills but it has everything you need. Comfortable and clean, and the location can't be beaten. We'll be back again next year for our annual visit.

Great spot on Rathtrevor Beach
Had a wonderful 8 days in #8 - Tanglewood. Host was great, very response. Lovely large unit with nice water views from main rooms, and both decks. As it was just the 2 of us we primarily used just the main floor deck Tanglewood is in a great location, with 2 really restaurants only a short walk away, and only a 5 minute drive to town for shopping etc. We'll be back !!!

Lovely Tanglewood condo right on the beach
We had a really enjoyable two-month stay at Steve and Lonnie's condo in Tanglewood. It's a spacious place with everything we needed to make our stay comfortable--pretty much like home from home. I especially appreciated the large windows with their spectacular sea views, and the upper deck for outdoor meals. Steve and Lonnie were very attentive to their guests and responded to any concerns we had quickly. In short, we loved every moment and would very happily stay here again.

Lovely beachside property
Enjoyed our stay immensely. Some of the decor and interior is dated and many of the beach items are broken, but to us, those are minor things that did not impact our enjoyment of the property. The owners were receptive to feedback and were readily available when we encountered one little hiccough with the front door. Beach views are great and the upper patio is a wonderful place for an afternoon nap!

Great location
This property is very well located just steps to the beautiful Rathtrevor beach. We stayed with our family of 6 and had a great week. Unit #8 has a well equipped kitchen and comfortable furnishings. The bunk bed is a bit small, definitely meant for children. We would recommend this property and plan on staying again.

This condo is in a perfect spot at a beautiful beach. It is very roomy and has a beautiful view. There are two decks to take advantage of and the beach itself is just a stones throw away. You will not regret booking this condo. We would love to stay here again if we get the opportunity.

Awesome beach vacation!

Karen
Great location, amazing views across the bay, great host, very comfortable and well appointed condo. Steve communicated promptly to all my messages and when there was a problem with the Internet, he got right on it and the serviceman arrived the next day to fix it. There was everything I needed in the kitchen, including coffee grinder and several different ways to make coffee. Highly recommended!

Coming Home
This was our 3rd stay in Tanglewood 8 and words can't describe the calm we enjoyed. Sitting on the green chaise lounge, drinking a morning coffee while looking out at the sunrise was restoring. We'll be back!

Terrific spot for the whole family
We had a wonderful time in Steve’s condo! The location is perfect for big kids & small ones. Everything we needed was provided & furniture was very comfortable. Some of the blinds are getting worn out, but were adequate. Steve was very quick to respond to any requests. My family can hardly wait to go back.

Great place !
We spent a full week in this great place. The home has all you need to spent a relaxing time at the beach. Our kids were so happy with all the beach toys available and we loved to be able to watch the tide come and go from the living room and the 2 outdoor spaces. There is a mini golf close by and a nature house which sells ice cream. We will definitely recommend this place to friends and family!

Beach walking bliss
We loved our stay at Tanglewood. This home away from home is fully equipped with everything. Comfort, a lovely ocean view and beach walking bliss too. Steve and Lonnie responded very promptly to all questions and provided a hassle free vacation spot. Highly recommend this home to anyone.

Great Place!!!
Hi! Our stay was from Mar 15 to Apr15. We were notified by message from Steve that our condo was ready 2 hours early, and we arrived shortly after to a beautiful., clean and well stocked condo. There were plenty of towels and blankets and soap and Kleenex etc. Also plenty of dishes. We were very impressed. The location is terrific and very quiet. We loved the beach and Rathtrevor Park right next door, plenty of space to walk and enjoy the forest and beach. We would recommend Steve and Lonnie's condo to anyone. The Parksville area is amazing and so was the condo!! Thanks Steve and Lonnie!!

Great stay
Came to the Island for some winter hiking and visit friends . Steve and Lonnie place is home away from home. Very comfy. Had a very well stocked kitchen, linens and towels galore. Internet worked great. We lost electric while there and we saw a tech within a half hour and power back on. Steve was extremely responsive. I would.love to stay during the summer months upcoming. Thank you again for a great stay .

Great location and property for young family!
The property was perfectly situated to the beach that we could access it easily with our toddler. The property layout also worked well for our needs and was clean and well stocked.

Perfect in every way
We greatly enjoyed this condo, perfect location to view the tides roll in and out. Very peaceful, yet close to the services Parksville offers. Location next to Rathtrevor park provides plenty of area to explore in the forest, and at low tide a vast area of sand to explore in the sun. It's like 2 vacations in 1. The condo has every possible convenience, including a gas BBQ. Plenty of plush towels available. We enjoyed the rooftop deck and the view it provides. Also happy to sit inside near the gas fireplace on those cool evenings. Owners very responsive, responding to any inquiry very quickly. We recommend this condo and hope to return again.

Everything you need and more
We recently spent a week at this condo and found everything to be excellent. The location is super as it is very central to the island and easy to drive to other areas. A two hour drive will get you most places (Uclelet, Tofino, Qualicum Beach, Courtney, Coombs, Nanaimo and Victoria). The condo was well described on the web site - it is very clean and well-equipped and has a very nice view of the beach and the water. We only found the BBQ needed attention but otherwise, all was good. The owner was very responsive to our e-mails. We even found a local group to play pickle ball with! We enjoyed the Tasty Cafe and Serious Coffee for lunch or just coffee. Otherwise, we mostly prepared our own meals which is why we were pleased with the condo's kitchen. We would certainly recommend this property to others who are interested in staying in this area.

Clean, well stocked for kids, great location
We really enjoyed our stay here. Lovely view from the two balconies and one very comfy chaise by the window with a cozy fireplace behind. TV's, stereo, books, games, sand toys, bath slip mats, lots of towels, and toddler toilet seat - they've thought of everything. Kitchen surprisingly well stocked too. If I really had to find something to improve, maybe a better frying pan/spatula, and sharper knives. Lots of stairs up to the condo, and up to the upper balcony (we didn't use this one much) could be a deterrent to some with very small or busy kids, but was just fine for us. September visit meant sun exposure mid morning to early afternoon then shaded most of the afternoon. Nice to have in-suite laundry. One other thing we weren't aware of was that larger vehicles (our truck) wouldn't fit in the carport due to height and the angle of pavement, but no big deal- visitor parking next to it or or overnight parking up top was fine. This might have been us not reading the property description closely enough too! Great beach, warm water, would definitely return. Thanks!
