Peaceful Vacation Rental:

We purchased our home in Mill Bay in the fall of 2023 after moving from Langley where I lived for 23 years. Operated a short term rental for 10 years including in Langley, BC.

My partner Svetlana moved from Ukraine October 2022. She is fluent in Ukrainian and Russian.

My new location is totally renovated with new appliances, cabinetry, paint, etc. The property has a large, beautifully landscaped back yard, hot tub for guests to relax and enjoy.
