New York, NYHome away from Home!
Left on 05/16/2013 for a stay in May 2013
After spending a week in a hotel for a Conference in Vancouver, my colleagues and I were looking for a relaxing place to cook some dinner and recharge our batteries. We were thrilled with our experience at this cottage. From the homey decor to the fully functional kitchen, it was exactly what we were looking for. Helene and Philippe were amazing hosts. The house is not far from public transit by train or bus, but there are also a number of restaurants and stores within walking distance. On our final day, we were able to walk to the Queen Elizabeth Park and Van Dusen Botanical Gardens. I'm definitely planning to return to Vancouver and know exactly where I'll be staying when I do!

The cottage is located in a nice area of Vancouver near Mainstreet. It is equipped with everything you need. The hosts is very kind and helpful, they even surprised us with a banana cake one evening. We are very satisfied with our stay in the Garden Cottage and will recommend it.

Dieppe, NBWonderful!
Left on 03/29/2013 for a stay in February 2013
My daughter was moving to Vancouver to study so I booked the Garden Cottage as temporary lodging for her until she could find an apartment. Best decision ever. Philippe and Helene greeted my daughter warmly from the time she set foot in Vancouver and assisted her greatly. I joined my daughter a week later and together we stayed several more days until she finally settled into her new apartment. The Garden Cottage is as described and was very clean and comfortable. What for us made our stay all the more enjoyable is the true kindness and hospitality shown by Helene and Philippe, which went well beyond our expectations. We were so fortunate to have their assistance during what was for us a stressful period. It certainly made things much easier. Thank you!

Left on 03/22/2013 for a stay in March 2013
My husband and I loved this charming cottage. It was clean with lots of homey amenities. Helene and Philippe could not have been more gracious. The location was great for us since it was near our son's house, but it is also near the Canada line and a few blocks from shopping on Cambie Street. We will definitely stay again when visiting our son and family.

VancouverHighly Recommended
Left on 02/19/2013 for a stay in September 2012
I did stay with my children due to renovations at home. We all liked the location, near Downtown Vancouver and close to a number of a very good restaurants and stores located nearby, on Main and Cambie Streets both at walking distance. A plus, my youngest son enjoys swimming. Not a problem, the Hillcrest community centre, (former site of the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics) is also at walking distance. He had a blast !!!. Almost forgot, Spanish is our first language. Philippe the owner speaks the language fluently. This helped a lot for the interaction with the whole family. Thanks Philippe for such a pleasant stay, definitely, we recommend this place... Gracias...

TsawwassenI Can't Wait To Go Back - It Was Fabulous!
Left on 02/13/2013 for a stay in January 2013
I recently found myself needing accommodation in Vancouver on very short notice and was fortunate to hear right back from the owners of the Garden Cottage. I received very speedy, thorough and organized information regarding check in and the rental agreement and was welcomed warmly upon arrival. My two week stay at the Garden Cottage was outstanding! The photos of the cottage are very accurate, if anything, the photos don't capture the quaint and elegant European feel of the space! The Cottage was in pristine and clean condition, with tons of fluffy white towels, the most comfortable bed imaginable, luxurious linens, incredibly well stocked kitchen ware and the 'little extras' provided a huge 'wow' factor! With the skill and expertise of a personal concierge, the owner hosts thought of everything, including information about where to shop, great restaurants and a list of things to do in the neighborhood. I felt cared for and pampered! The Garden Cottage is located in the quiet, safe, hip, artistic area of Main Street with a funky neighborhood vibe. There is a theatre, many restaurants, grocery stores, coffee shops, a pharmacy, clothing shops and yoga studios within walking distance of the Cottage. My favorite local restaurants were 'Burgoo' (French Country Casual) and Sawasdee (Thai). Groceries are available at 'Choices' on Cambie Street and at the Organic Market on Main. The Cottage is near major bus routes, is an easy walk from the Skytrain station and is a short and direct 45 minute drive from the Tsawwassen Ferry Terminal or the Peace arch Border Crossing. It is a 20 minute trip from the airport. I loved the 'green initiatives' and really appreciated all the recycling and composting options at the Cottage. I have already recommended the Garden Cottage to many friends and family. I plan to return soon for a romantic weekend with my husband!

This place won't disappoint. The hosts are warm and friendly and the suite is lovely.
I enjoyed browsing the shops on Main Street and there were lots of options for dining as well.
The hosts allowed for an early check-in which coming in from an early flight was a bonus as well!

Lopez Island WashingtonCute as a button!
Left on 12/27/2012 for a stay in August 2012
I travel a lot for work and while coming to Vancouver this past summer was looking for something other than your standard hotel room. Boy did I find it! This cute as a button cottage was like having my own mini house right in the heart of the city. A short walk to transit allowed me to leave the car at home and not have to pay for parking downtown plus I was only 10 minutes away on the sky train from all of my meetings! Being 3 blocks from the middle of Main street had all my friends coming to my neighborhood to take in the many cool restaurants and local designer stores. I will absolutely return to this rental the next time I come to Vancouver, it was clean, comfortable and had all the details to make my stay easy and enjoyable.

StrasbourgHome away from Home!
Left on 11/19/2012 for a stay in September 2012
Why staying in a hotel when you can get for a better value a cute cottage at Helene and Philippe's! During our 1 week leisure trip to Vancouver, we decided to stay away from Hotels and wanted something more personalized and family oriented, while keeping an eye on our budget. That was a smart move! The coach house is really well maintained, quaint and clean. The location was ideal. Away from the city core, yet close to transit, restaurants and bars located on Cambie Street. Lounging in the quiet garden after a long day visiting the city was a plus.
The host have been definitely part of our holiday memories. Their kindness and helpfulness was truly appreciated. They both made us feel welcomed and unique. They have a genuine and passionate sense of hospitality. Philippe gave us quite some great advice when it comes to dining out and visits. We just felt special and will with no doubt return there.Response from Garden Cottage Coach House - 12/17/2012
