Holiday rentals with beach access in Cowichan Lake

Karen was great and very welcoming. Looking forward to coming back next year!

Really nice responsive host. Very clean & modern room with a nice view. This was my second time stay at the property and I absolutely love it and will definitely be visiting again soon. The pools and other amenities are very clean and easy to find. The staff on property are very kind and helpful as well.

El departamento es más chico de lo que se ve en las fotos , los muebles ya están viejos pero en buen estado. Todo limpio la Host muy atenta. Muchísimo que hacer cerca y hermosa la vista de día y de noche

We stayed one night at Russells place. The location was conveniently situated for us in relation to the ferry terminal. What we appreciated about the location was that we had our own entrance and space. It was lovely to be able to sit outside on the balcony. The bathroom was spacious, with nice toiletries. Unfortunately, we couldn't cook in the kitchen, but we were aware of that as it was mentioned in the description. Luckily, the Nanaimo bars made up for it. What we personally find a bit of a shame — and this unfortunately happens at almost all Airbnbs — is that there’s no personal contact anymore. A key lockbox is very convenient, but we also feel it takes away a bit of the personal touch.

We stayed for 9 nights and it was exactly what we were expecting in a city stay. The apartment had all the basics, there’s a grocery store less than one block away, the amenities were great, and the neighborhood felt quite safe too. Parking was secure but tight for my mid-sized truck but that’s to be expected in a parkade. Many thanks!

A wonderful stay in an absolutely stunning location! The photos and description are perfectly accurate, and the place is wonderful to spread out relax or use as a homebase while visiting Sidney. Both bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious and stocked full of amenities, and the kitchen is very functional with a great open room and beautiful balcony overlooking the water. Victoria is about a 25 minutes drive away (depending on traffic) but the suite is close to many amenities including stores, restaurants, the Victoria Airport and the ferries to Vancouver. Highly recommend and would stay here again.

This is a gem of a find! This is your home away from home for visits to Vancouver. Thank you Carly for all the little things that added up to make our stay even more special! Looking forward to booking on our return trips!

After travelling to Vancouver, many times in the past few years, I have to say that this is our favourite Airbnb. The location is fantastic. It’s close to the university many restaurants and the beach. Patrick was amazing host too, came out and met us when we arrived and was always responsive to my questions. He allowed us to plug our car into the garage outlet. The place it’s itself is spotless and brand new with all the amenities listed. Comfortable beds which is always a very important part of traveling! I’ve already put it in our favourite category for Vancouver stays. We will be back!! Be sure to get a cinnamon bun from Ground for Coffee. It was epic!!

We had such a nice and relaxing getaway at Dana’s place. The kids loved being able to walk down to the beach and had some board games to play by the fire on rainy afternoons. Everything was clean and the beds were very comfortable! Would love to stay again.

Beautiful space and area overlooking the ocean, awesome having our own beach, and use of kayaks etc. Sleeps 6 comfortably but the hidabed in living room for 2 more guests very uncomfortable, needs a foamy on top of the springs! Loved the sunroom and games box, lots of different sitting areas❣️

What a wonderful place for a vacation! We loved the proximity to the beach, the quiet locale, and the cozy, well-provisioned house. We would definitely return to Treasure Cove Beach House.

We had a great family holiday in Sooke. 9 adults and 1 toddler. Close enough to go into Victoria! (Even by e-bike!!) Spent some time on the Galloping Goose and exploring East Sooke Regional Park. We spent some time on the water and in the nice big hot. The beds were all very comfortable!

Our stay at Anna's was wonderful. We were a group of 4 ladies and we stayed for 4 nights. We were all impressed by how cozy, well stocked and clean the place was. The place was spotless, shower is awesome, beds are comfortable (twin bed mattresses are suitable for kids, not adults), coffee is provided. We walked to the beach everyday and the street was quiet and peaceful. Check in was easy and Anna was wonderful. Photos in the ad represent the home well. Great stay and we would stay again. Thank you Anna

Our stay at Bullman Beach Inn is always one of our favorite trips of the year. The beach is peaceful and quiet with lots of wildlife. It's also perfect to let the kiddos run and play with lots of freedom and safety. It is also a super quick drive to lots of other great places to explore. Carolyn is a warm host that our kids love. And we all love Augi the Beach Cat. This place is a hidden gem of our Washington Coast.

We loved this amazing view home in Nanaimo. It is comfortable and extremely clean. Brian is a wonderful host, very welcoming and helpful. He has gone the extra mile to make your stay memorable by having so many extras available for your enjoyment like kayaks, crab traps and even extra shoes! The home has an incredible view and water access that offers a beautiful place to relax each day. We saw orcas, humpbacks, and otters from the deck! My 4 yr old grandson loved watching the ferries and float planes. Nanaimo was so fun. We are planning on coming back and definitely want to stay at this home again.

We loved staying at Dave’s Central location perfect for Nanaimo adventures, and super close to the ferry We’d love to get back some day!

We had such a wonderful stay at Kate’s place! The location was perfect — tucked away in a quiet spot downtown, but just a short walk to so many great restaurants, shops, and attractions. Having a parking space was a huge bonus since we had a rental car. The unit was super clean, easy to access, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Just a heads-up for future guests: the AC unit isn’t installed until May, so it was a little warm at night even with the fan and windows open, but it was totally manageable. Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely recommend Kate’s place — we’d happily stay here again!

Our stay at the Strand was simply magical and will hold a very special place in our memories for many years to come. Every attention to detail in all the furnishings, kitchen/bathroom amenities and local recommendations were so thoughtful and made this magical place feel like home, a very warm, peaceful and relaxing home! The beautiful photos from this listing were what attracted us to this booking but the reality was even far more breathtaking, stunning and exceeded all our expectations. We’ve stayed at many Airbnbs around the world and the Strand has to be one of, if not the, BEST one we’ve ever stayed at. Thank you Nikki for a magnificent stay - we loved every moment of our 5-nights holiday from Australia! 😊

This location was perfect for exploring Vancouver. Our stay at Kay’s place was absolutely wonderful. The apartment was impeccably clean and tastefully decorated. Kay’s communication was exceptional and always quick to respond. We especially appreciated the amazing local tips of places to eat. Thank you for making our stay so enjoyable we would definitely recommend staying here.

Place was gorgeous, Iris was a sweet and responsive host. We will be back again 100%

The apartment was in a great location for exploring Vancouver. It was close to the ferries to take you to Granville or Kitsalano. The picturesque seawall walk was just down the street taking you to Stanley Park or Yaletown. There were lots of cafes and restaurants within easy walking distance. The apartment was compact and had everything we needed for a 5 day stay. We would definitely stay here again on any future trips.

This was our second stay at an Airbnb in Nanoose Bay at the Pacific Shores resorts. Chelsea's place was top of the line. As described, clean and comfortable. Everything we needed and more. Comfortable for the 6 of us who stayed. We loved the location and lay out of the condo, and loved being able to utilize the resort amenities as well. We hope and plan to stay here again next year and for many more to come!

Our family enjoyed our stay! Our only regert was not booking long enough. The kids enjoyed the walking path and the pool and outdoor hot tub. We played a few games of pool as well, that was a big hit for our boys. We would definitely book again, next time for a longer period.

Highly recommend Roy’s place! The location was perfect and the view from the master bedroom of the water was amazing! The apartment was very spacious and clean and it had everything we needed! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would definitely stay again!
