I‘be been Airbnb for many years in North America and Europe. This is my best experience so far. I stayed for 7 nights in this beautiful, super clean and well maintained house.
Carrie and Brian are super hosts. They are super friendly, helpful and kind.
The house is beautiful and it has a breathtaking view at the balcony or from living room where you can see the river, the blueberry farms and the snow cap of mountain Baker.
The bed and linens were very clean and comfortable. Carrie also created wonderful customized towel art pieces to welcome each guest. When I arrived, I found an elephant and two snowmen made from towels in my room. It really showed the effort and care they put into making guests feel welcomed and appreciated.
If you enjoy hiking, there are many trails nearby. And if you’re looking for more of a challenge, you can hike about 5 km from the house to the Pitt Meadows River, just as I did in one wonderful afternoon.
A very memorable experience. Thank you very much!!

Vancouver had been on my list since 2021, I finally booked my flights in mid-April. I was busy, waited until May to book stay. Years of staying in hotels, something told me to try a house this time. I had heard how beautiful BC is, so I wanted a peaceful experience. I spent days browsing options, but nothing felt right until May 8, woke up early and forced myself to book. My app recommended Carrie’s place while I was checking my saved options—it instantly wowed me! Even though it was far, her home was exactly what I wanted. Carrie replied immediately, and our conversation felt like fate. She and Brian were thoughtful, attentive, and kind. Brian picked me up, took me grocery shopping, bought toiletries I didn't know. They made sure all guests were respectful people. Their home felt like art gallery, filled with Carrie’s amazing paintings. The bed was pure luxury, I fell asleep instantly. Carrie even helped me with dressing me my jewelry because of my long nails...I will come back soon!

Hosts were very kind, friendly and welcoming. They helped me with moving my stuff to the room and gave me free rides to Costco for shoppings. The house had a balcony with a abeautiful view, a nice piano in the living room to play, and many artwork decorations like an exhibition. My room, its moden bathroom, and the common spaces were pretty clean and a robot cleaned my room for privacy. The kitchen and living room were well equipped with all I needed. The hospitality was at the level of a 5-star hotel with lower price than a hotel room. A premiume place✨

Carrie & Brian were amazing hosts! They were friendly, approachable, caring & made sure I felt welcomed and taken care of.
Room was clean & comfortable which allowed for a great nights rest with no issues whatsoever.
I recommend Carrie & Brian to anyone who is looking for a good nights rest at a tranquil location. I’ll definitely have Carrie & Brian in mind next time I’m in town.

I had a wonderful stay at Carrie's home. Both the host and co-host are very friendly and had great recommendation for nature spots for hikes and great restaurants. Their place was clean and well taken care of. They also have an amazing view of the mountains from their porch for meals and coffee. There was just a bit of disorder with my stay: I had to enforce the 10PM quiet time around 11:30PM from the other guest staying at my adjacent room and there was a big renovation job that occurred on my last full day of stay where it sounded like a construction site from 10AM to 6:30PM and there was no running water for an hour (no warning of this at all) while all of this was told the day before the job started, it also turned the air quality of the home from great to poor due to all the dust.

Wonderful stay. The house is beautiful with incredible views of the city and surrounding mountains. The bedroom and bathroom were spotless and if you’re someone who appreciates nature you can go on jaw-dropping walks right around the neighborhood.

The house is absolutely beautiful, with truly stunning views. Carrie and Brian are incredibly friendly and were very accommodating to my particular circumstances, which made my stay even more enjoyable and stress-free. I couldn’t have asked for better hosts. I 100% recommend staying here. Thank you so much, Carrie and Brian!
I will definitely be recommending you if I know someone looking for accommodation in the area.

I had a wonderful stay at Carrie and Brian’s place! The room with the private bathroom was spotless and very comfortable, and the house overall was beautiful and well-maintained. The scenery around the property was stunning and peaceful.
Carrie and Brian were truly amazing hosts — always checking in by text to make sure I had everything I needed. They even left lights on for me since I came back late, which was such a thoughtful touch. Brian stayed up to personally welcome me when I checked in late and gave me a full tour of the house. Their hospitality really made me feel at home.
I highly recommend staying here — Carrie and Brian are caring or responsive hosts!
