Wonderful Stay in a Beautiful Setting at Bear Mountain

The property was nestled aside a rock face that was host to an array of birds and nestled in a very quiet and lovely Cul de sac-Close to amazing golf and amenities at Bear Mountain and just a short drive to Victoria.Wonderful walking paths and restaurants close by.The home was lovely, clean with a great soaker tub and very comfortable king sized bed. We slept extremely well at this peaceful spot. The owners were responsive and check in was easy and convenient. Enjoyed having the use of the garage for golf equipment.A terrific stay and we hope to be back!

First time back to Victoria in 40 yrs

Had a lovely trip. Quails Run was in a lovely quiet cul-de-sac, was centrally located and the perfect place to call home base for a few days. The house was very clean and comfortable, with everything we needed. Would definitely stay there again.

Quails Run Retreat — A Wonderful Place to Stay

This is a superlative property with a wonderful view and all the amenities including reasonably close to services and hiking trails. The layout of the building is very practical and it was exceptionally clean - my wife and I absolutely loved being there. Check-in was a breeze. The hosts are responsive with communication and accommodating. We will be back at some point in the near future.

Amazing place.

Thank you for the privilege of staying at "Quails Run Retreat" on Bear Mountain. My family and I enjoyed our stay immensely. The location was amazing. Driving up Bear Mountain was always a delight. The morning view out the living room was spectacular. The place was immaculate, from it's cleanliness to the availability and use of all it's amenities. If asked about a place to stay in Victoria, I would 100% recommend "Quails Run Retreat" on Bear Mountain. It will be the only place we will stay on our next visit.

Fabulous Cottage!

This little cottage has all you need/want, and everything is comfortable and clean. You own little home, beautifully decorated with 1 car garage underneath the living space. Love the koi pond and waterfall. Thank you for a great stay, Rich and Allison.

Perfect getaway

We came here over New Years for my birthday. The property was as described and close to everything we wanted to do. We went to the Hand of Man Museum which is north of Victoria by 50 miles, but we’ll worth the drive. Stoped at the Manahat walkway. The views were great as the lowland fog had just cleared as we got to the top.

SUPERIOR EXPERIENCE

Quails Run Retreat can simply be surmised in one word, "Superior". Attention to detail and all the awesome amenities set a very high standard that others can only hope to emulate. Clear instructions and procedures allow for a seamless check-in/out. The superb coach-house is tucked away on a safe, tranquil and premiere location within Bear Mountain coupled with close proximity to all one's needs and more with Victoria just a few minutes away. Sincere thanks to Rich and Allison and the QRR Team. Happy New Year and look forward to returning in 2023.

Quiet, lovely abode

My family enjoyed our stay at this property. It's tucked at the end of a quiet cul de sac on a shared, steep driveway with a house further in back. The main living area upstairs is cozy, but plenty adequate for a small family. The lower floor great for storage and has a laundry room. The kitchen had plenty of space to prepare meals and the natural lighting and view was perfect. My children enjoyed watching the fish pond and I felt confident having them in this house due to the cleanliness. Do note that if you have very small children (probably not the usual clientel) the stairs pose a safety concern so a baby gate would be a good thing to pack -- one of ours was not mobile when we booked. Close to outdoor adventures and about thirty minutes from more urban tourist activites, it was a great location to hub from. I would definitely consider staying here again.
