Elise and John Friends for life

These two were such a delight to be with and have them stay with us. We have become good friends since they bought a home near us. It certainly made our Covid stay at home much more enjoyable.

Surprisingly short stay

We were happy to be able to host this very nice couple and their traveling companion. They made excellent time in getting here and even found the place with no difficulty - considering major highway closures and our almost hidden drive. We had a very nice, short visit upon arrival and were looking forward to the next day. But, unfortunately, they needed to leave early. We do hope that they have a chance to return for a longer stay, especially after this coronavirus issue is over. They are always welcome.

What A Delight To Meet This Couple!

We had already looked forward to meeting this couple because of the recommendation of one of our previous Boondockers Welcome guests. We really enjoyed getting acquainted with them and look forward to their return visit in a few days. We ran out of time before our visit ended so have to continue it on their return. Felt like we had known them for a long time. Their two dogs are so well behaved we hardly knew they were here. They will always have a place here whenever they come our way.

Giving our new friends the travel bug

After hearing all about our great adventures with Boon Dockers Welcome, John and Elise are excited about going out and making memories of their own with Boon Dockers Welcome. We were their first guests and they did a marvellous job of hosting us and making us feel really welcome. A glorious evening spent discussing travel and adventures over drinks and nibbles. Morning coffee on the deck was a great way to start the day.
