Fantastic little place and a seamless experience
The place was clean, cute, and had everything I needed for my stay. The communication I recorded was excellent, and I would definitely recommend a stay if you’re coming to Lake Cowichan!
We enjoyed our stay in Lake Cowichan. It was a lovely end of summer escape. We were happy to swim in the River and explore the town and surrounding area.

Great value, awesome location and cute environment.
We loved the new clean minimalist vibe of the unit we stayed in. Gorgeous yard with shared seating, fire pit, hammocks, and dock. Right in the heart of Cowichan Lake. Highly recommend.
Cute property with the perfect location. The only improvement I could suggest is get rid of the cement blocks at the door entry. My guest twisted her ankle because they wobble under the mat. Well stocked and cute little place. Thanks so much!
property is clean and quiet. shout out to Ashley the property go to girl for helping me navigate the new system of checking in and checking out. had to check out a day early because of weather condition and my guest didn't want to miss her flight home to Denmark. thank you Matt and Alisha and Ashley for the communication.
