Gjester fremhever meget rene og komfortable interiører med moderne preg og private terrasser med utsikt over vannet. Vertene Jodi og Randy beskrives som vennlige, imøtekommende og hjelpsomme, med gjennomtenkte detaljer som redningsvester og velkomstkurver. Beliggenheten føles avsidesliggende, men likevel med kort kjøretur til Nanaimo, ferger, havpromenader og fotturer. Forvent en rolig og godt utstyrt ferie ved innsjøen.

Dragon Fly retreat is a beautiful place on a small, quiet, non motorized lake; perfect to relax and unwind. The hosts thought of everything, beach towels, paddle boards, and ample cooking equipment. We really enjoyed our stay and spent most of our time lounging on the deck chairs on the dock. Life is good!

Everything we needed for a great summer getaway was here at Dragon Fly retreat. Indoors, there was a comfortable bed, great kitchen with all we needed, and a spacious bathroom. Outdoors, there were multiple places to relax and a fabulous dock with SUPs, a canoe, peddle boats and floaties. Amazing! We were sorry to leave but have good memories to keep us smiling. Jodi and Randy were were excellent hosts.

Located far enough to be quiet and peaceful, Nanaimo is still close enough to reach for supplies or a night out.

This perfect Oasis by a small private spring fed lake was heaven. We had such a wonderful relaxing time. The place was modern and clean. We ate our meals outside on the deck overlooking the beautiful grounds and lake. Jodi and Randy are lovely hosts and they have thought of everything to make your stay stress free. You can hang out at their private dock and swim, float and paddle around on a board, or canoe. If you are looking to de-stress or just to get away I would highly recommend a stay at the aptly named Dragonfly resort.

We had the most excellent stay at Jodi and Randy's place! Our kids absolutely LOVED spending time out on the dock looking for frogs and fishes. There are many activities that the owners allow guests to use - canoe, paddle boat, life jackets, etc. We absolutely love that it was a private lake so we have plenty of privacy! The guestsuite is sparking clean. All the cooking amenities were available for a nice bbq grill in the patio. Towels and toiletries were available and very clean. We felt like we were staying at a resort! Randy greeted us when we arrived and Jodi was our main contact. They were very prompt to all our inquiries and super friendly! They definitely treat you like family! Overall, this was our favorite place at Vancouver Island. It's close enough to the ferries and within driving distance to stores. I would highly recommend Jodi and Randy's place for those looking for a private resort style lodging. Thanks Jodi and Randy for an amazing stay!

This property is absolutely gorgeous. And the property owners are super nice and easy to talk to. We loved looking out over the lake. There are all kinds of things to do at the lake and the hosts even provide fun water crafts and chairs. Wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

A very well-kept gem that invites you to rest and relax, while also being a great destination for trips in the surrounding area. Many small details in the garden and by the lake have been lovingly arranged, so there is always something new to discover. A very attentive hostess had provided a welcome basket with treats, as well as thoughtfully stocking the refrigerator with water. She was very attentive and made us feel very welcome. This marked the beginning of an all-around successful stay at the Dragonfly Resort, which we thoroughly enjoyed. We highly recommend this accommodation!

Our stay at the Dragonfly Retreat was truly amazing. From watching the meteor showers by the dock to splashing in the lake during the day with our 5-year-old (life jackets thoughtfully provided - your kids who can’t swim just yet will be safe!). From having a morning coffee on a private patio overlooking the lake to listening to the gentle sound of the water feature at dusk. We very much appreciated the hospitality of Jody and Randy and their helpful suggestions for things to do in the area. The suite was beautifully appointed and with many thoughtful touches. Loved the walk-in shower and the washer and dryer. There was even a blanket and bowls for pets in one of the cupboards! Both the bed and the sofa-bed were very comfortable. There are many beautiful hikes around, and for those travelling with kids, there is a fantastic playground downtown Nanaimo, right by the promenade. We will be back! Thank you so much, Jodi and Randy!

Wow, do not miss this amazing stay. It's about 10 minutes from south Nanaimo and 15 minutes to downtown. It is a true oasis and an incredibily romantic get away for couples. The grounds are stunning and attention to detail in every corner of the propery will absolutely wow you. Such a great place to get away to relax and restore. Jodi (the host) was amazing, you can tell she loves this property and loves sharing it with guests. Can't say enough great stuff! Beautiful amenities, stocked with everything you could possibly need. We will definitely be back.

A very well-kept gem that invites you to rest and relax, while also being a great destination for trips in the surrounding area. Many small details in the garden and by the lake have been lovingly arranged, so there is always something new to discover. A very attentive hostess had provided a welcome basket with treats, as well as thoughtfully stocking the refrigerator with water. She was very attentive and made us feel very welcome. This marked the beginning of an all-around successful stay at the Dragonfly Resort, which we thoroughly enjoyed. We highly recommend this accommodation!

We had the most excellent stay at Jodi and Randy's place! Our kids absolutely LOVED spending time out on the dock looking for frogs and fishes. There are many activities that the owners allow guests to use - canoe, paddle boat, life jackets, etc. We absolutely love that it was a private lake so we have plenty of privacy! The guestsuite is sparking clean. All the cooking amenities were available for a nice bbq grill in the patio. Towels and toiletries were available and very clean. We felt like we were staying at a resort! Randy greeted us when we arrived and Jodi was our main contact. They were very prompt to all our inquiries and super friendly! They definitely treat you like family! Overall, this was our favorite place at Vancouver Island. It's close enough to the ferries and within driving distance to stores. I would highly recommend Jodi and Randy's place for those looking for a private resort style lodging. Thanks Jodi and Randy for an amazing stay!

Beautiful property, so peaceful. We had a relaxing stay. We had the lake all to ourselves along with the Bobs (the three beavers) and otters. Jodi and Randy were super accommodating. My 9 year old loved hunting for frogs.

Beliggenhet
Stille og avsidesliggende beliggenhet ved innsjøen med enkel tilgang med bil til Nanaimo, ferger, butikker, havet og fotturer. Et godt utgangspunkt for dagsturer rundt Vancouver Island.

Dragon Fly retreat is a beautiful place on a small, quiet, non motorized lake; perfect to relax and unwind. The hosts thought of everything, beach towels, paddle boards, and ample cooking equipment. We really enjoyed our stay and spent most of our time lounging on the deck chairs on the dock. Life is good!

This is a fantastic property to stay at and it is wonderfully quiet and secluded from everyday life. I can not think of a better property we could have picked and Jan and Randy the hosts were wonderful to deal with. We will definately be back in the future to get some rest and relaxation.

This was our second time staying here and it was another amazing week’s stay. We enjoyed the lake for swimming, paddle boarding, and relaxing on the dock. Owners very friendly and helpful. Close car drive to Ocean and hiking. Suite very clean and well stocked kitchen. Has its own deck over looking the lake. Great place for morning coffee. Thanks for another great stay.

Jodi and Randy offer a beautifully landscaped homesite on Myles Lake. With a small number of lakeside homes on this small lake, it can be a relaxing and peaceful place to spend time. The apartment is well-outfitted for a wonderful stay and you'll find most amenities available. Squeaky clean. It was quick and easy to get questions answered. One of us primarily wanted to swim, so the dock and chairs were well used and there are a number of options for water play available. Located far enough to be quiet and peaceful, Nanaimo is still close enough to reach for supplies or a night out.

The fireplace fan was too noisy to use so left it on the flame feature only. The house was well heated anyway so didn't really need it. Everything was very tastefully done. We would definitely recommend you to our friends
