What a wonderful suite! Spotless, cozy and peaceful. The bed and bedding was comfy and the attention to detail and effort to make guests feel at home was so noticeable. We loved walking and swimming at Thetis Lake and enjoyed the peaceful mornings in the beautiful backyard. Shena was a very responsive and helpful host. Will definitely be back!
