Cowichan Bay Hideaway

Relax and enjoy our character home on a quiet no through street with a private deck that overlooks Cowichan Bay and Mount Tzouhalem. Lounge on the patio while watching boats in the bay and herons and eagles overhead. The quaint village of Cowichan Bay is just a 5 minute walk down the hill. It offers artisan shops, fresh baked goods and a variety of excellent restaurants. Hiking, biking, water activities, golf, vineyards and local farms are all at your doorstep.

Nice character home
everything is as shown, very well equipped home. Only negative is that i had no response from the host when i sent a message. the stairs are steep going upstairs but that was clearly explained on the site. would definitely recommend this place.

Sister’s getaway
We plan an annual sister’s getaway somewhere easy driving distance from our homes in Victoria. This year we didn’t book until very late and happened upon this property. Two of us had been to the Cowichan Bay area before but not overnight. We found the property without any issue. It was well equipped with everything we needed. It is a quaint and character filled place which was perfect for us but may not be suited to those who are looking for sleek and modern. One of us was recovering from surgery and by the end of our 2 night stay seemed to turn a corner with much more energy and optimism. This getaway in this quaint cottage was just what we needed. We might come back and stay again at some point.

Fabulous Stay!
We really enjoyed our stay. The house was clean and cosy and the back deck and its views were everything!! It was a nice touch that the owners gave us a gift card for a delicious bakery nearby. Would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful and relaxing
My husband and I had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home overlooking stunning Cowichan Bay. We loved the many windows and open layout of the living area which maximized the view and natural light. We walked down to the restaurants and shops a few times, not a bad walk if you don't mind a rather steep hill. There was plenty to do nearby, and we especially enjoyed the kayak estuary tour. The only slight negative I have is that I was not expecting there to be a tenant in the basement, until the owner included that fact in the checkin information. The tenant was quiet and we only saw them once out the window, but I think that information should be disclosed prior to booking. That being said, the pros of this place were so high that we would still definitely stay here again if we are fortunate enough to be able to visit Cowichan Bay again!

Great little cottage
We stayed with a group of 5 and it was absolutely wonderful! I would suggest if you are looking for things to do drive to shawnigan lake and go for a swim! There is not much to do in the little town where to cottage is located. But lots close by via car!

Lovely harbourview in well supplied and decorated home
The 1 star less rating was that a spilled water glass in the kitchen showed the floor to be very dirty. Perhaps my error in not noting the loft had very steep stairs. I chose to sleep on the entry level on the couch. The 3 of us loved the breakfast room, living room and outdoor deck overlooking the bay.

Charming getaway
We loved: the sweet garden beyond the arch and leading up to the entrance, warm and fun colours and decor, comfortable beds, cozy fireplace for rainy weather, well-stocked kitchen, the stunning view. Aaron is great. A lovely, peaceful home away from home. You will want to stay longer!
