Holiday rentals with a patio in Cowichan Lake

Haven’t really stayed in many airbandb’s but this was bright and cheery and spotlessly clean. Easy walk to great restaurants and our own parking spot right out our door. .

Had a great time staying in Blair's suite. the space was clean and well set up for a couple says stay. Blair was excellent at getting us in and set up. his neighborhood is among the best in Vancouver for amenities and walkability (and just being stunning). I'd certainly recommend it.

Thoughtfully furnished and comfortable- would love to stay again!

Great place to stay, beautiful location, perfect for walking your fur baby, safe neighbour hood, relaxing balcony with a great view, simply wonderful experience!

Kirsten was very friendly and accomodating. I'm grateful she accepted our last minute booking and she also let us check out later than the set time. They have a very curious and adorable orange cat who hung out with us for a while during our stay and we really appreciated his company

Stayed here with my mom, sister, and cousin and we had a great time! Beautiful views and so peaceful. The building was very grand feeling, the apartment was very clean and comfortable. Cindy was a great host, easy to chat with and quick to respond. Loved the location, made it easy to fly and take the ferry for a day trip!

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!!

Had an amazing stay! Incredible views, easy to walk to great restaurants, the beach and the bus stops. We were very lucky and thankful to have flexible check in times as we got into the city very early. 10/10 would stay at this location again!

Jacqueline’s place was absolutely gorgeous and perfect for our group of four adults and three kids. The house was absolutely gorgeous and full of thoughtful touches and the neighborhood was darling and near amenities- a grocery store, some quick restaurants and a Starbucks were nearby and the beach and a cute park were right down the road! Victoria was a short, convenient drive away. We could not have asked for a more lovely place to stay for our family trip, and look forward to staying again someday!

Home away from home with the most amazing view! I will be go back asap!!

We had such a lovely stay at Michelle’s home! The location was quiet and peaceful, and the home was stunning with the perfect backyard for morning coffee. We were hosting family in town for our baby shower and Michelle added a special touch of flowers, a card and chocolate for us to find at check in which was so sweet!

If you are searching for a well-appointed, comfortable, and extremely clean airbnb then be sure to choose this property. It met our expectations based on their listing details, photos, and guest reviews. Definite value for money. Very cozy and beautiful. Communication with Courtney was easy and responsive. I highly recommend this listing.

Spacious home with a beautiful view! Well equipped kitchen. Very quiet neighborhood. Had a wonderful week.

The apartment is in a beautiful area, very close to Whiffen Spit, which is a lovely walk. Sheri has made the apartment very welcoming, and the facilities are excellent. The photographs show a true picture of the apartment. Barry and Margaret, Cobourg, Ontario

This was the most incredible little escape! The apartment was spotless, beautifully set up, and had everything I needed. The pull-out couch was comfortable, and the main bed was perfect for a great night’s sleep. The view from the front yard is absolutely stunning, with mountains that take your breath away. It is also so central, making it easy to get around Nanaimo. The owners are very friendly and welcoming, and their sweet big dog greeted me warmly from the upper deck, which made it feel even more like home. I could not have asked for a better place to stay. I would highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a peaceful and beautiful getaway!

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!

Amazing location, walkable distance to the beach. Had everything we needed very cozy! We would love to come back again.

Randy and Barb’s home was absolutely perfect. The condo is beautifully decorated and it’s even more lovely than the photos. The view is unmatched. We watched the tide come in and out each day. The peaceful water views are a dream. We usually visit Florida each year and this year we wanted to stay in Canada. My family had a fabulous time and we can’t wait to come back. Our three year old loved the playground and the kids hot tub that had a slide! Endless fun. The resort has a delicious restaurant, a spa, trails and kayaks. Everyone was so friendly. Thank you Randy and Barb!

Incredible! This was truly the place to stay. Everything you need, comfortable and luxurious, location, easy communication start to finish. We are very happy with our stay.

This condo was so great! I could live here. It had pretty much anything you could need for a short or long stay. The full kitchen was nice with the full size, 6 person table. There were several condiments, tea and coffee left in the kitchen to use. The bathrooms and beds were beautiful. Even the hide-a-bed was fairly comfortable. The pool, hot tub and gym were in a different building so we only used them once. The beach and walking path were right outside the door. The walk is definitely worth it, even if you don’t have a lot of time. Other than the shoreline, Nanoose Bay is within an hour of many hikes, waterfalls and hidden gems to explore. We didn’t find a bakery or grocery store within walking distance. The closest would be Parksville which is not far. But you do have to drive or set out for a long walk. We will definitely stay again if we are in the area. Thank you!

Stunning views and a wonderful space with a delightful garden. We loved it here and did not want to leave. This property has access to the ocean, and a huge deck to watch the ocean and wildlife. The suites are well appointed, clean and spacious. The suites even included binoculars! We would recommend this spot - it was well worth the drive.

We loved our stay at Andrea’s place. It was extremely clean. The space had everything we needed even down to a bin of spare chargers! It was also very well equipped with everything we needed in the kitchen. It even had good coffee!!! The toys, books and board games were such a lovely touch and were so helpful for us entertaining our kids. I find traveling with children they aren’t always as welcomed but we certainly didn’t feel that during our stay here. We had the opportunity to request a high chair and pack and play (with a crib mattress). It was an easy walk to the beach and we very much enjoyed our time exploring what Parksville had to offer. It was April when we visited but the close proximity to the pool in the summer months would also be a hit. Andrea was very accommodating and we can’t wait to come back. I’d give her more stars if I could!

Beautiful new apartment. Underground parking. Quiet. I would recommend it and stay there again.

Great and peaceful space, nice and quiet in October. Kids friendly 🤸🏻‍♀️amazing facilities at the resort too. Lovely bedrooms. Awesome view of the creek and tides. We can't wait to return again!
