Our stay was absolutely great. The property is very warm and welcoming. Beautiful dining and comfortable living area. Easy access and check in. We stayed at the house with 4 adults. The space was perfect and the separate bathrooms excellent. Perfect mattresses and bedding as well as plenty of towels. The extra bathroom could use some re-caulking on the floor. The location is wonderful. Parking on driveway is easy. As we only stayed one night there was plenty of restaurants to choose from in walking distance. We chose the Grand Hotel and had a fabulous time. The host also suggested restaurants. Very good and friendly communication with the host during our stay. Would definitely recommend and always come back. Thank you to the host

LF Guesthouse had everything that we needed to make our stay in Nanaimo memorable. The house was sparkling clean. We loved the location as it was a 12 min walk to Long Lake where we explored one evening. The backyard was very spacious but we spent most of our time there inside. We used the laundry as we had been travelling for a week and half when we arrived. It worked great. Lou was so easy to deal with and she is one of those thoughtful hosts that makes a stay so enjoyable. We prepared meals there with ease. We highly recommend this VRBO. It’s very central and we explored Cathedral Grove/MacMillan Park, Qualicum beach and Westwood Lake (great place to paddleboard) as well as an evening out in downtown Nanaimo.
