Thank you so much for a magical and restorative sanctuary on the lake. The house is perfection- comfortable, gorgeous and everything we needed for a romantic and relaxing vacation. We loved the boathouse, the docks, the sublime views, the cozy beds, and so many dreamy spots to lounge and soak in the natural beauty of the lake. Cannot wait to come again. Future guests- you are lucky to stay in such an welcoming and beautiful place. And try R- Harn Thai in town and Spicecraft in Mill Bay for incredible food.

Well and thoughtfully equipped. Great views of lake which changed with light, weather, foliage. Spotlessly clean and comfortable. If anything, the pictures understate how wonderful this place is. The host was accessible and helpful

This lake house was an incredible place to stay for our whole family. The views were incredible, in all weather. We all found it to be so very beautiful and bright. There were a couple of hiccups, but the property managers were incredible and followed up super quickly, and very kindly. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes, baking dishes, appliances etc, glasses etc. Memories were made. Some family members didn’t want to leave. :) We CANNOT wait to come back.

I can't adequately describe how beautiful a location this place is! The recently remodeled home is light, airy, and modern with comfortable beds and furniture and plenty of places to gaze out to the lake, both inside and out. My favorite part were the well-designed wall-to-wall windows and staggered elevation, which provided breathtaking views from almost anywhere inside the main living area. Looking towards the lake was soo relaxing and ever-changing depending on the lighting outside. We had a very comfortable stay and thoroughly enjoyed the experience, and we would whole-heartedly stay here again. A couple of niggling things for people to be aware would be first - that the equipment outside such as the trampoline, one of the dock walkways (the less-used one), and basketball hoop were a little old and falling apart, which the photos didn't really show. The trampoline is rusting and didn't seem in good enough condition that I'd let my kids go on it. The walkway along the water to the trampoline was dramatically tipping so that it seemed unsafe to use much, though I did walk on it to get to the trampoline and didn't fall in. I wouldn't let younger kids go on it in its current condition, though. The main dock near the boat house was in good condition and is the one most accessible/easy to use. It was cold outside and we didn't end up doing anything in the water, so it wasn't a big loss for my teens, but they were looking forward to the trampoline since we don't have one at our house. The only other slightly wonky thing was the main bathroom's vent button, which is in an unusual spot. It is behind the door near the ceiling, so you need a pole or something to turn it on/off, which was a bit annoying both to find and to use. If there could be a pole already there plus a sign letting people know what to do, that would be helpful and make things a non-issue. While I am mentioning these two things for others to be aware, I didn't think they detracted from our stay or made a difference in our overall experience, which was excellent. Overall, stellar place to stay, and we would absolutely stay here again!!!

My husband and I stayed with our 2 kids and had a great time. Super easy check in. The king size beds are super comfy as is the furniture. Super clean and updated. The boat house had a great ping pong table, thankfully the doors were closed as we are not that good at it. LOL! Breath taking Malahat Skywalk nearby as well as Butchart Gardens/Vitoria. Definitely recommend!

Our family of 4 were all very impressed with the views thru-out the house of the lake and the open space. Perfect location easily assessable for day trips to Victoria and Bushart Gardens or not to do anything and soak up the relaxing vibe on the large deck. One of the nicest rentals we have stayed in. Extremely clean and modernized.

We brought together four generations of family from across Canada to celebrate missed birthdays & milestones. This property was perfect for every age group - comfortable quiet bedrooms, cosy spots for story time with Grandma, green spaces and easy entry lake access for outdoor activities and water sports, and a fully stocked high-end kitchen ready for preparing family feasts. Walking distance to Shawnigan’s charming downtown, with all the amenities on hand we needed to make our stay complete. We loved every moment of our stay, and would highly recommend it to any family looking to reconnect and relax together. We’ll be back!
