Perfect
We spent 3 weeks on honeymoon in this idyllic location, with a short break to Whistler. The location is great for getting the Canadian outdoor experience, as well as the city life, as the transport network is so good to Port Moody and the bus service to Belcarra outside the door is great. There is so much to see and do but not enough time, so will definitely be back. Brian and Carol are the perfect hosts, with nothing too much trouble. Would highly recommend

Cozy coach house
WE were given great information how to get there and hiking suggestions! The hosts were keen to our needs and willingly provided. They have a canoe and bikes we could use. That was an awesome service. The area was very clean and quiet!

A Lovely Retreat between the Forest and the Sea
Belcarra is frequently described as a village between the forest and the sea, and this description is well-deserved. Our stay at Brian and Carol's Belcarra rental unit provided a wonderful retreat for us. We stayed from May 7 to May 12, 2023. For our first day at this unit, we arrived late since we drove from the Seattle International Airport to Belcarra. Although late, Brian greeted us and graciously acquainted us with the unit and its amenities to ensure that we were sufficiently acclimated. When selecting this unit, we understood that we were adding driving time to/from our Vancouver excursions; yet, after a busy day of visiting Vancouver or partaking in a whale cruise or a day trip to Victoria, we looked forward to ending the day at this beautiful Belcarra unit. It was peaceful, relaxing and energized us for our next daily adventure. Brian and Carol were thoughtful when determining how to furnish this unit. It is not only comfortable, it is also appealing. The kitchen is well-equipped with quality appliances. And the views from many windows are breathtaking views of the forest. For us, a bonus was the drive to/from our daily excursions because of the beautiful scenes of ocean, mountains and forest. We have stayed in several rental units from Hawaii to France, and in our opinion, this is one of the best. Thank you, Brian and Carol, for your warm welcome and your lovely rental unit. It was easy to call it home during our stay.

Magical!
We loved our stay. The Carriage House is simply perfect - so comfortable with all the amenities you'll need. If you love nature, you can't beat the network of breathtaking trails in Belcarra Park which is literally across the street. A public bus runs every half hour so you can hit Port Moody's brewery row, enjoy some delicious beers and food truck ware, and return to this remote location with ease. A simply stunning location, and Brian and Carol were very attentive and generous hosts too. 10 out of 10!
