My husband and I spent the first four days of our honeymoon at the Prancing Horse Retreat. Prior to our arrival I had a great feeling about this place because Elaine was so welcoming and warm over the phone, suggesting restaurants and things we could do when we arrived. When we arrived we were exhausted from all of the wedding... More

The Prancing Horse Estate is a fabulous place to stay. My husband and I stayed here for two nights . It was nothing less than perfect. The location couldn't be beat, up in the hills, near the Aerie Resort, with stunning views and so romanitc. The outdoor hottub was very nice and there is even a gazebo!. The hospitality of... More

We arrived and were greeted by the house mistress Elaine, who's friendly personality is infectious. The views at the B&B are truly amazing, as is the delicious breakfasts that Elaine prepared each morning. Elaine's personal touch and service during our visit was over the top.. She help suggested local restaurants and made our reservations. We had breakie on the outside... More

To make it short and sweet, our experience at the P.h. was nothing but amazing and a total relaxing weekend. The place was immaculate, the host, Elaine was very friendly and couldn't do enough for us. The breakfasts were amazing. There are many great walking trails just down the road and in Shawnigan lake a short distance away. Which Elaine... More

Before I begin my review let me be clear;I am NOT reviewing the house or B&B experience. We rented "The Cabin" for 3 nights and I truly wish it had only been one because that would have been enough! It looks ok on the website pictures but has several flaws that should never be accepted at the ridiculous price of... More

I no longer rent out the cabin I have permanent tennants who absolutely love the cabin. We were in the process of turning our property into a hobby farm when... More

Where do I begin? Elaine is super amazing. We came to spend one night at the prancing horse and our experience was so amazing we did not want to leave, ever! The view is spectacular, Elaine has such a huge heart and is super helpful. She will give you anything you need or ask of her. She is also very... More

I really appreciate the owner going out of her way to accommodate my vegan diet. I had a wonderful hot breakfast (scrambled tofu) that she made especially for me. The views from this retreat is absolutely stunning. I would definitely stay there again.

We have stayed at the Prancing Horse 8 out of the last 9 years; and, on our honeymoon in 2003. Elaine & staff go overboard with the decor, food, personal service. The food is unbelievable. We travel to British Columbia every year, put our rental car on the B.C. Ferries and go island hopping. We have stayed at almost every... More

..and so on! Prancing Horse simply blew us away, from the moment we drove up the drive! The pictures on the website are exactly what greets you- you don't have to go searching for a spot to "get a good view". The rooms and home are truly warm, comfortable and oh so inviting. Not to mention Laura Lee and Wendy!... More

This was one of the best B&B experiences I've ever had! My husband and I stayed here recently as part of our honeymoon trip to British Columbia, and wished we could have stayed longer.
