"We were confused at first because the sign on the white exterior of the property said McNeills Inn (another listing on Expedia). However, the address matched the listing we booked. All good, except we then saw a brown exterior motel two doors down that said Sportsman's Inn, so we went over to that. There we found a note in the window of the (at the time) closed restaurant to check-in at the pub (Gus' Bar & Grill) next door. Aha! the booking confirmation emailed confirmed this... we were in the right place.
The booking email said check-in started at 3pm but the nice lady at the bar said it was 4pm that day. No problem; it gave us a chance to explore town. Our room was in McNeills Inn building but the room matched the pictures shown for the Sportman's Inn on Expedia.
I'm happy to report the room was better than in the pictures. The pics made it look a bit bland, which was OK for our one-night stay. The room was clean and actually pleasant. We liked table/sitting area by the window, set apart from where the beds are. The TV was a bit small but I wasn't there to watch TV. We enjoyed quick/convenient access to the (related?) pub and restaurant.
We would stay here again for a future multi-day trip."

Cozy 2 bedroom suite, including a stunning view, on Vancouver Island
10/10 Excellent
"It is a clean, nice place with great beds. David is a good host and it was easy to get into and out of the unit. The outside of the building isn’t special, but the inside of his unit is very nice. The location is terrific and a great view of the sound. Port Alice is a great little quiet town, nestled in a remote area of the island. Perfect get away and or fishing trip. Dave also helped us find a boat to charter and we did well fishing:). Great trip. Thanks David."

"This place in Quatsino was absolutely amazing. The oceanfront location is breathtaking, and there’s something so peaceful about waking up to the water and taking in the beauty all around you. The space itself was cozy, welcoming, and the perfect place to unwind.We especially loved exploring the area — the hikes were beautiful, and the scenery everywhere you turn is just incredible. It’s one of those places that makes you slow down, breathe deeper, and really appreciate where you are.A perfect little getaway if you love the ocean, nature, and a cozy place to come back to at the end of the day. We truly loved our stay."
