As with several times in the past, our stay at the Hobbit House was great. Nancy and Greg are really good hosts, and the setting is beautiful. The hosts provide some nice touches like plenty of bottled water and snacks. The cabin is comfortable and has kitchen well supplied with cooking gear. We really enjoy spending time on Gabriola, and the Hobbit House is a prefect home base from which to explore. Highly recommended!

The Hobbit house location - not far from the ferry and main shopping area, plus nearby access to the 707 trail network - was perfect for our 2-day biking trip to Gabriola. Nancy and Greg were wonderful hosts, friendly and welcoming, but very respectful of our privacy. They brought us absolutely delicious breakfasts which set us up well for our days of riding around. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Hobbit on Canopy Ridge to our friends & family, and look forward to staying there again. Thanks for having us!
