General Overview
West Vancouver is a beautiful community close to everything. We are in a prime location to enjoy local beaches, minutes away from 3 ski hills, 1.5 hours from the world class Whistler Resort, and just across the bridge from downtown Vancouver. We offer 2 bedrooms in our home for exchange. We have 2 cats which stay here during exchanges, so cat lovers are a must as some cat care is required.
The Space
Our home is lived in! If you are looking for perfection, this might not be for you.
Our home has 4 bedrooms, but only 2 are available for exchange (King bed, Queen bed). There is a large deck with lots of seating, which is set up in the summer months. It is a lovely spot to spend your days reading and relaxing. There is a living room and another TV room/den. We have 2 portable A/C units for the summer months and a lovely fireplace for the winter months.
Guest Access
There are 2 floors with split level stairs. Our home is not accessible or child proofed, so is not suitable for young children. Guests can access the home through a pin pad.

Jen
We live in Vancouver, Canada and work in education and sales. We have 6 children aged 15-28 (4 are adults and 2 are teenagers). We are hoping to get away on our own sometimes, and include some of them other times. We occasionally offer our home in West Vancouver for exchange but also have a second home in beautiful Kent, British Columbia (Harrison Mills) that we are offering for exchanges.
