Garden Cottage & Bunkie @ Horner Park

Perfect place to stay near campus. Cozy and well appointed. Lovely host.

Close to campus.

Louis was an amazing host. The place was exactly what we needed. Felt like being in Europe. The fresh eggs were a nice touch also.

Felt like being in Europe.

We loved staying at this beautiful little gem of a cottage. We loved the super comfortable bed, the beautiful decor, and the fenced yard. The appliances were new and worked well and we really enjoyed the large shower! It was such a relaxing and easy stay for our dogs and us. Tasha & Louis were very friendly and responsive—I really appreciated the loan of a drying rack for my clothes. I’ve already recommended their properties to friends—their multiple homes, side by side, would be perfect for larger groups. Thank you for a great stay. We will be back!

Beautiful little gem.

I loved it! My friend who I was in town visiting also came over to enjoy it for the day! It was perfect. Wonderful for my dog as well. I will be staying there again for sure. It’s now my go to spot for visiting Victoria!Wonderful

Wonderful for my dog.

My daughter and I stayed at the Guest Cottage at Horner Park while our house went on the market. It was a perfect little local get away - the cottage is adorable with excellent amenities, the location accessible and Louis and Tasha very responsive to our needs. We especially enjoyed having access to the fully fenced yard. I wish the weather had allowed us to enjoy it a bit more but, nonetheless, the hammock, BBQ and fire pit were all put to good use!
