Welcome to our Lake House
Lake Cowichan is the second largest body of fresh water on Vancouver Island, BC at over 30 km in length. The lake is located 20 minutes (31 kilometers) west of Duncan along Highway 18. The pristine blue waters and sun drenched beaches of Cowichan Lake offer water skiing, wake boarding, tubing, swimming, wind surfing and canoeing.
Our Lake House is located just 1 km outside of Youbou and offers you incredible lakefront living in this 3500 sq/ft five bedroom walkout.
Cowichan (Quw'utsun') means 'land warmed by the sun'.
In the Cowichan Valley rolling mountains, undulating rivers and pristine lakes come together to form the backdrop of the Cowichan; a place of incredible beauty, timeless traditions and tidal rhythms. Nestled between the bustling cities of Victoria to the South and Nanaimo to the North, the Cowichan Valley offers a wide choice of things to see and do throughout the year, from exploring the wine country trails, to unforgettable fishing, kayaking, hiking and golfing adventures.
Bedrooms
All of our beds have top quality plush mattresses to ensure a good nights sleep (new 2009).
Master bedroom has a king bed, walk in closet, iPod ready clock radio and master bathroom with double sinks. The master bedroom windows overlook the lake.
Two other bedrooms upstairs have queen beds and a shared full bathroom. There is also a sofabed in the office on the main floor.
There are two bedrooms in the basement, one with a queen bed and a fabulous view of the lake and one with two double/single bunk beds.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2009
My wife Brenda and I love being near water. We fell in love with this beautiful area the first time we came here.
Why the Owner Chose Lake Cowichan
After vacationing in the area we realized we had found a hidden gem. The water is so clean and clear and compared to most lakes in the summer there is lots of room for water sports. We have the feeling of being secluded but are only an hour from Victoria.
The Unique Benefits of this House
We love spending time on the dock and the beach while the kids play in the water.
