Vancouver Short Stay ~

My sister & family (husband and two young girls) are coming over to visit Travis and I from France this summer, and we would love to show them around Vancouver for a few days before all coming over to Thetis.

I was therefore wondering whether any of the Vancouverites among you who are planning to be away at the beginning of July would be willing to let us borrow/rent your city home for a few days?

They are landing on Thursday, July 7th and we were thinking of leaving for Thetis on Sunday, July 10th.

Thanks a lot for your consideration!
