We are in the country backing onto the forest with miles of forested trails to walk.You can also walk, bike or drive 2 kilometres to the famous Goats On The Roof market to shop for all kinds of things, two of our favorites being ice cream and doughnuts. You can also walk or bike a very nice seven kilometre trail to downtown Parksville where you can find beautiful sandy beaches for the whole family including the dog. Qualicum Beach is about an eight kilometre drive to a very nice community with a lot of small shops and restaurants worth visiting. Suggested Local Attractions:This whole island is an outdoor paradise whether you want to walk, hike , mountain bike, golf, fish, four wheel drive or ATV. It's all easy access to explore. A few options are: Old Country Market (a.k.a. Goat's on the Roof), North Island Wildlife Rescue, Horne Lake Caves, Englishman River Falls, Little Qualicum Falls, Morningstar Farm and Little Qualicum Cheeseworks.

House Rules
We are non-smokers and would prefer non-smoking but basically we want you to treat us like you would expect us to treat you.
Location
Access Road Conditions: There is paved road to our acreage and gravel on the acreage. We can only accommodate up to a 30 ft pull trailer or a 36 ft 5th wheel due to the access off roadway. Both of these lengths will have to do some maneuvering to get from the paved road over a 20 foot wide culvert onto the driveway. This is a sharp turn. Once on the property there is lots of room to maneuver. Tow Vehicle Parking Details: We have two and a half flat acres with easy turn around and parking for any size RV, but due to access, limitations on RV length apply. You can park on the front part of the acreage or completely fenced in on the back part of the acreage. The tow vehicle can be left with the rig, or parked separately.

Only stayed for one night as we explore Vancouver Island. Kevin met us on arrival and treated us to a great parking spot near a Lotus Tree in his well landscaped and manicured yard with a great view of snow covered mountains! Enjoyed good conversation with him and his wife Sandra. Definitely want to come again!!

Really enjoyed the stay. The view of the mountains is so nice . They keep the yard gorgeous with really neat stuff to look at around the yard ! We got lucky and Kevin showed us his muscle car ! There are a few nice trails to ride your bike on and it’s very close to ride to the Old Country Market for a ice cream or snack ! Very nice people and loved there super behaved sweet dog !

We had a very enjoyable two nights stay at Dusty Acres. The property is quite lovely and it's a perfect place mid Island to spend a night or two. Kevin, Sandra and Dean were very gracious and friendly, and our stay was made even more delightful by Portia! I very much enjoyed my morning coffee chatting with Kevin, and hope to see them at our place in Comox! Thank you!
