Absolutely wonderful!!
We had the best time staying here. Charming condo with thoughtful decor, vaulted ceilings, and gorgeous views! Beautiful, inviting community with beach, shops, and restaurants just steps away! Rosemary is so kind and happy to help. Just could not be happier with our experience. We would definitely recommend to family/friends and cannot wait to return!

Perfect little get away!
The condo and location were perfect! Steps from the beach, kitchen stocked with anything you might need for cooking, beautiful views from the decks, and wonderful communication from management. Highly recommend!

Unpleasant Stay
Stayed at this condo for a couple days over Christmas Holiday. Started with walking into condo with a misty old smell. I had to use room spray and candle to help mask the smell. The bedroom downstairs has a horrible bed frame design, as we both kept stubbing our toes on it, due to how the bottom corner feet stick out. But most of all what mad this a Christmas stay nightmare, was from a horrible rotten egg smell coming from the water faucets & shower that was so bad it Ruined our stay. This was caused from the water heater. For how bad of smell this was does not happen overnight, but over time. I read up on it. When I brought this up to management they said there was nothing they could do to fix since it was a holiday. To me if you have a maintenance person for your condos. They should either have extra parts or go into these condos to see if there is any issues occasionally. The Only Option I was given was that I could move to another unit. Well thats a unacceptable option. Here’s why: when I have unpacked and would have to pack just to move to another room. And track all my things threw the snow since they don’t shovel the walk areas. And biggest reason is that’s it was Christmas and having to deal with this.

I am so sorry for your experience. This was during the largest snow storm in decades with record snows and freezing rain. All airlines were grounded in Seattle and Vancouver..it was a mess. The staff at the complex were doing their best to keep pipes from freezing, shovel snow, and then the big thaw along with so much more. When housekeeping went in to prepare for the guests that stayed right after you for NYE there was no odor from faucets and they did not have any issues with it during the stay. I am not sure what it could have been. The unit being cold was definitely something that should have been addressed during the pre check. If you would like to contact me I would be happy to talk about a complimentary stay or other compensation for your troubles. Thank you for your review I wish you would have reached out to discuss further. Happy New Year

Fantastic unit, across the street from the ocean and easy walking distance to restaurants and market
My Parents reside in British Columbia and we live in Los Angeles. It is a wonderful family getaway place that easy for my folks to cross the border and for us to get to Birch Bay. Our VRBO unit was wonderful e and well situated for us to be able to walk to everything. Reservation process and Property Management were excellent!

I am so sorry that the cleaning of the property clearly wasn’t to standard. We always leave a contact number in case there is any issue so that we can correct it right away. If we are not able to correct it then we compensate you for your troubles. I wish we would have been made aware so we could have fixed the issue and I do hope other parts of your stay were good.

Great location! Amazing views
We felt very comfortable in this rental. The views are very beautiful. It is a very relaxing and enjoyable place to take the family. The unit could use some updating, but overall it was very clean.

Musty and over used
The unit wasn't what I expected.... especially for the cost per night. It smelled like it hadn't been used in months. The smell reminded me of an old folks home....but it was clean. The management, Rosemary Black is top notch in making myself and two young boys feel satisfied with locating a unit that met our needs. Just because of Rosemary, I would return to Jacob's landing.

I am so sorry that you encountered this issue. We have been renting this property for several years and have not had this problem. We did have housekeeping deep clean the unit last week. I am glad Rosemary was able to assist you.
