Even though the weather is cooling off the lakefront scenery and multitude of social areas outside and inside make this property suitable for sunny summer or rainy winter. Definitely reccomend for family vacay.

Wonderful spot

We had a wonderful stay. Youbou and Cowichan Lake are great vacation spots. Beautiful lake and hills. The private dock, tennis court, and beach are all very nice and in good condition. The kitchen is extremely well stocked with even more equipment, essentials, and spare food than noted in the listing. Beds and rooms were comfortable. Plenty of parking.

Perfect getaway

We filled this house up. 10 adults, 4 kids and there was room for everyone! The property is beautiful. Can’t think of any other place that is right on the lake, and has a private tennis/pickleball court! Hosts have made sure you are never bored. Hockey nets/sticks, basketball, laser tag and games galore. Lots of comfy outdoor seating. We will be back!

Perfect for multi-generation family get-away

The place is a bit old but it was just perfect for our multi-generational family get together. Toys for the little kids. Games for the teenagers. Deck chairs for the grandparents and lots of couches for fun evenings. Glad to have found this place.

Beautiful spot on the lake; we were delighted by this rental. Spacious accommodations, plenty of room for all. Great deck with eating table and seating, the swimming is excellent, tennis courts and basketball were well used. We had a great time! The kitchen is huge and well stocked with a variety of dishes / pots etc., big fridge for all the good food and even a selection of coffee options! Brandy was quickly responsive to any questions.

Friendsgiving/Xmas Getaway

Crazy amounts of places to sleep and the dock is beautiful. Kids loved having their own room for playing (with tons of toys and games) and then a fully equipped activity court? Amazing.Owner also left thoughtful touches for our New Year's celebration. This place would be insane in the summer with all the deck seating and dock itself!

Beautiful lake front home.

Brandy was a great host. Very responsive. His home is a big rambling home with a great kitchen and everything you could possibly need. Super big living room and a wood burning fire place. The kids loved the playroom. Tennis court was amazing. Tennis, hockey, basketball, lacrosse were played. Thank you Brandy

At the lake

We are a group of quilters. We found there was plenty of room for us to spread out with our sewing machines at the table, or hand sew in the living room. The well equipped kitchen is very spacious with lots of room for several people to work at the same time. The view of the lake from the very comfortable seating on the decks is breathtaking.

Reunion on the Lake

We are an old group of friends who were looking for a spacious property for a weekend getaway. It was absolutely perfect. The house is expansive & amazingly well stocked. Communication with Brandy was excellent. So friendly, quick to respond & helpful. The property was gorgeous. We lucked into a sunny weekend & took full advantage of the deck & tennis court! Great to have so many bedrooms! It may become an annual retreat!!
