Modern Lakehouse Escape w/King Bed & Amazing Views
We had a wonderful stay here and would absolutely recommend and stay again. The hosts made us feel right at home. It was clean, beautiful, comfortable and right at the beach. Thank you!

Big Pool Cottage
Awesome place! The house was very well appointed. Host always responded to our messages. Walkable to all stores and food options. Would definitely recommend this place if staying in and around lake Cowichan.

New 5 Bedroom Lake View House with Boat Slip
We loved the house and the area. Kurt responded immediately to all out concerns, of which there were many. The area is lovely. We felt very welcome.

Youbou Lakehouse
Truly one of the best Airbnbs we've stay in. The house is better than we could have imagined and lake is even closer than what it looks like in the pictures. My five year old son says his favorite thing(s) about the house is: jumping into the lake, the hot tub, the water play, jumping in the lake, the big couch, the showers, and jumping into the lake... Hoping to come back again!

Lakeview Escape in Northshore Estates
What a lovely place to stay!! I almost didnt want to write this review because (selfishly) I don't want more people finding out about this amazing getaway spot! 600m walk to a private beach with dock access.. View of the lake from the backyard.. What more can you ask for. Would 100% stay here again!

Two Story House Close to Nature
Huge home with all the needed amenities for our stay! Was very pleased to find a little closet of kids puzzles and books as well. My kids loved the gems and rocks that were collected around the home. Wish there was a little space where we could have found it what some of them were and where they were collected!!

Upwood Lakehouse - private suite by the lake
Suzanne was very accommodating. The bed was very comfortable and the location was perfect for my objectives.

Character Stay across Swan Lake Nature Sanctuary
Absolutely fantastic stay! Gerry was super helpful and incredibly responsive throughout our visit. The place was spotless and exactly as described. He even went above and beyond to help us with our bikes before our race, which made a huge difference. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again — highly recommend!

Lakeside Living – New 3 Bedroom Waterfront Retreat
Great spot , beautiful house and awesome view of the lake

Cozy Studio at Riverside Boutique Motel - Elk Room
This place is an absolute gym. we absolutely loved our stay here and didn't want to leave. The cozy wood pellet stove and sauna really set this place apart. I already want to return and spend a full week here. Great price and no complaints. I feel truly blessed to have had the opportunity to stay here.

Tuck Inn @ Shawnigan Beach Resort
Beautiful view well equipped kitchen bed was very comfy quiet location

Stylish Studio at Riverside Boutique Motel Unit 3
Lovely weekend away, the place had everything we needed. The outdoor spaces are great, the private dock and fire pit were perfect. Would stay here again!

Lake Cowichan Water front, beach, 1King+1Queen ZEN
Tracy and John are fantastic hosts. They have everything you can think of and more within the unit. There were also some other little perks but don't want to ruin the surprise should you choose to stay here which you should. The view / location can't be beat. The lake is a few mins walk away; super clean (rocky so you may want water shoes) and there is a dock to jump off of. Separately, my luggage arrived late and they provided me with extra toiletries which was so thoughtful. They also regularly checked in on the situation which I really appreciated. I hope to be back!

Cozy by the Lake + Breakfast in Duncan
This is a wonderful place to stay. Adrianna is an outstanding host. I would come back any time again. Five well deserved stars all around. Thank you!

Studio at Riverside Boutique Motel - Unit 6
If you like a nice nook by the river then you're going to love Matthew's pad! Definitely coming back in the summer for some river tubing and much more. perfectly placed in the center village, walking distance to many cute shops and cafes. Thanks for being a great host Matthew! cheerios 🍻

Lakefront Condo and Beach
Great place, as advertised, we will be back. Thank you!

Modern Charming 2 Bedroom Cottage
Always a great place to stay in the Shawnigan Lake area. Comfortable, convenient and super cute!

Sister’s Lake Cottage
We had a wonderful stay at Louise’s Cottage! very clean, comfortable bed, wood burning stove and thoughtful little welcome note. Home surrounded by greenery and only a short driving distance to town.

Cabin #2 Maple Ridge Cottages
Lovely stay at Maple Ridge Cottages, cute little cozy space to hangout by the lake. This would be the perfect place in the summer while you can jump into the lake and use the provided water equipment (canoe, paddle-boards) enjoyed the wood burning fireplace at night and cooked our own meals on the BBQ. Only a short driving distance to town.

Lakefront Sunset Cottage on Shawnigan lake.
We had an incredible stay at this beautiful lake-side cottage. The place is right on the lake with amazing views. The interior is super cozy, with comfy couches and beds. It's one of those places where you immediately feel at home. Our hosts were incredibly responsive, kind, and helpful. We would love to come again!

Windhaven Cottage - Entire home on beach front.
Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful house Ann ! We had such an amazing time

Lakeside Cottage & Garden w/ Sauna + Lake Plunge
Julie's place is spectacular. 7 of us came up for a bachelorette weekend and this place did not disappoint! It has everything we needed and more! the back deck was probably our favourite place, gorgeous view of the lake. We got to take advantage of the sleeping nook, and it rained the first night and the sound of the rain on the roof was amazing! I hope to be able to stay there again and discover even more things as we were just too busy to enjoy them all! ! I highly recommend for any occasion! I hope to be able to stay again soon! Thank you so much Julie! 😊

Mag’s Beach House - waterfront get-away in Youbou
Michele was responsive and helpful. Would highly recommend her place! Great location and right on the water.

West Coast Enchanted Cottage Hideaway
We had a very peaceful and comfortable stay. We truly appreciated the opportunity for a late check-out, which made things much easier for us. Our son was participating in a regatta on Shawnigan Lake, so staying at Shery’s place was incredibly convenient.
