I stay at many VRBOs and this was the most well appointed so far. The kitchen cookware was perfect, there were plenty of towels, the beds were very comfortable and the neighborhood was very sweet and friendly. Easy access to walking trails and the places in Lake Cowichan. I will be back.

We had a great time staying at this cottage. The location was close to everything and the cottage was clean and well stocked. The owners were very easy to communicate with and had quick response times. The location on the river was an added bonus. We walked to town with our tubes and floated down the river many times with the dock being out exit, plus we spent lots of time jumping off the dock and swimming! Thanks for a great stay :)
