About this property

Waterfront on Lake Cowichan - Available from October 15, 2025.

Due to local bylaws, we have a firm 30 day minimum rental. Rentals 30 nights or longer don't incur the BC accommodation tax.

We have availability for up to a 4 month rental anytime between October 15, 2025 and May 15, 2026.

Regular 1 month rentals are available at the posted rate and include BC Hydro up to $200 per month. Message directly if you have questions.

Enjoy 70 feet of swimmable lakefront with a private dock at our Lake House. Our Lake House is located in an executive neighborhood and offers you incredible lakefront living in our 2200 sq/ft 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom walkout. Unlike some properties, our house is DIRECTLY on the lake. This is one of the nicest and newest neighborhoods in all of Lake Cowichan.

The house consists of 3 levels: The master bedroom Is 500 square feet and occupies the entire upper level. There is also a trundle bed with 2 single size beds in this room if you wish for your children to sleep with you. The master bedroom area takes up the entire top floor so there is lots of room. There is also a full en-suite bathroom with tub and shower and walk in closet on this level. The main (middle level) contains a beautiful kitchen complete with granite counter tops, immaculate stainless steel appliances, and an enormous butcher block island that seats 4 easily. The living room has 2 leather couches and a flat screen TV. The walkout lower level contains 2 bedrooms and a separate open rec room that we use as a 4th bedroom. There is also a full shared bathroom on this level. There is a full walkout deck on all 3 levels of the house and ALL of the bedrooms have a view of the lake.

Our home is child friendly! There are manual alarms on each of the lakeside doors that act as a siren if the doors are opened. Also, we live on a private flat road that has almost no traffic - perfect for little ones who want to ride their bikes. We do not have traditional cable - we have a Roku TV that is enabled for internet TV. If you have Netflix or Amazon PRIME, these can be accessed on our TV. We have Internet service with 75 MBPS. **We have had approximately 10 rentals over the last 10 years - 3 of the families have gone on to buy on our street and become neighbors! The lake is located 20 minutes (31 kilometers) west of Duncan along Highway 18. Our Lake House is approximately a 1 hour drive from the Nanaimo ferry terminal or 1 hour 15 minutes from the Victoria ferry terminal. The Town of Lake Cowichan is a 5 minute drive away and amongst other things, has: a BC Liquor store, a full grocery store, a variety of stores, pubs, and restaurants.

Please compare rates - the cost of renting our property for 1 month is approximately the same cost of a 1 week rental at a comparable property! At this time, we are only able to accept a 30 night minimum rental. Please do not contact us for rentals less than the required 30 night period - due to bylaw restrictions we cannot accept them. The 30 night period does not have start at the beginning of the month. We will work with our schedule and yours. We only rent it out once per summer - so contact us now to secure your time spot! **Please double check that you have your VRBO settings (upper right corner) to Canadian dollars. Thanks!
