Awesome in every way!

A lovely, cute, modern guest suite. Complete with everything you need for your stay, including a yummy bottle of wine and some delicious cookies and items for your pooch as well. The owners have thought of everything you may need during your stay! A very comfortable, clean and well maintained suite, in a beautiful country location, but close to so much. The owners definitely know how to take care of their guests and make themselves available if necessary.

Clean and truly the best. No detail missed. From a welcome personal message and home baked cookies, to bathroom soaps/shampoos and kitchen cooking basics. A lovely studio room with sitting area with electric fireplace to enjoy. We missed having the opportunity to use the hot tub. Already booked for a future trip as this was one of the best VRBO stays (and we've had many) that we've ever had. Thank you for hosting us.

Lovely space and great location for where we needed to go. It was a very short stay so didn't use the hot tub but it was a lovely little space, nicely decorated and adorned, with some lovely extra welcoming touches like fresh baked cookies and a bottle of wine. Full kitchen which is perfect for longer stays for sure. Will be back for our next course in Duncan!

The place is immaculately clean and the hosts had a welcome gift (wine and cookies) that was we thought is so thoughtful. It’s truly a home away from home as they have everything that we needed. Didn’t get to use the hot tub as we focused more on getting acquainted with the place.

A lovely suite - friendly hosts!

The suite was very cute with a full kitchen. On the outskirts of Duncan - very quiet. We unfortunately didn't have time to try out the hot tub - maybe next time! Oh, and the hosts left homemade cookies - yum!

Fabulous place

My small family of 3 had a wonderful stay at this beautiful suite. It was stocked perfectly and beautifully decorated. The neighbourhood was peaceful and it's perfect for someone looking for a country get away. The Cowichan Valley has so much to offer in terms of hiking, bike riding and generally being in nature. The hot tub was perfect for 2 people and the suite fit us well as a family of 3. Ear plugs were helpful as the fridge and outdoor heat pump ran at night. The host was wonderful and very attentive to our needs, answering our questions immediately and bringing us extra towels for the hot tub. I completely would recommend this place!

Home Away From Home

My daughter and I stayed for three nights. The guest suite was spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated and provided everything we needed to have a home away from home. The kitchen was thoroughly equipped, the bed and sofa bed were very comfortable and, for a small space, the suite felt spacious. It was cozy, private and peacefully quiet. The location is great being only 5 min from town. The thoughtful details and special touches provided by the hosts made our stay extra enjoyable. We will definitely stay here again.

Immaculate and very private! Gorgeous deck with hot tub (which we didn’t have time to use). Host generously welcomed us with a bottle of wine and cookies…perfect as I was hitting a sugar low from travelling! Well supplied kitchen which we used to cook meals, comfy bed and smart tv with access to popular streaming channels. Loved the decor…inspired me in my own home renovations. Thoughtful touches everywhere!
