We had a wonderful family reunion at Eaglesnest. Host, Ezio, was very warm and helpful. The house was clean and welcoming with well equippd kitchen and a large deck outside. The patio furniture was a bit worn and rustic but fine for us. The grounds and setting are really beautiful and private. Very peaceful. Most of us had a wonderful time swimming in the river though the paths to the swimming holes were a bit too challenging for the more elderly family members. I would note that Ezio told me he would look into fixing the stone steps from teh upper path so this comment may soon be out of date Overall we were delighted with our stay.

Girls' getaway

A group of 15-or-so of us found this gem of a getaway for a pre-wedding girls' retreat and it was absolutely perfect!!! This location has everything that any girl would want. It is an absolutely beautiful house and, then after you throw in a sauna, hiking and amazing view overlooking the river, you basically have everything that anyone would want (and I didn't even mention the open "dance floor" downstairs!). Thanks Ezio!!! It was the first perfect weekend before an absolutely perfect wedding. I got engaged right after my sister-in-law got married so we will be calling you again soon :)

Tranquil and regenerative property

Eaglesnest is truly a sanctuary. The property, nestled in stunning forest along a welcoming river provides for rich outdoor exploration and fun. Ezio was a gracious and generous host. His many talents enrich the grounds and building with beautiful craftsmanship. There are multitude of quiet nooks of to discover. The house was a bit grubby, hotel like shine not to be expected. But the uniqueness and warmth of the house made up for any shortfalls.

Dear Linda, It was a pleasure to meet you and have you as guests. I am glad you liked the setting of the Sanctuary. The Sanctuary is advertised as a rustic. It does not pretend to be a "Hotel shine". At the same time, I would hesitate to describe it as "grubby". Thanks for choosing Eaglenest Sanctuary for your family vacation. Love and light, Ezio

Surprise Birthday Sanctuary

This is by far the most peaceful and serene property I have ever experienced. It is situated on a beautiful river in the middle of the forest at Shawnigan Lake. It is rustic, but charming and very comfortable. Ezio - the owner was very welcoming! You greet him at his house, which is just down the road from the retreat. He will give you a property tour and explain in detail where everything is located. There is a stage, a meditation area fire pit, and many other outdoor amenities. It is such a beautiful place! The reason for my visit was for a surprise birthday party. We had about 8 people total, but this house could easily accommodate more. There are so many rooms with so many beds. The indoor sauna was amazing! The hot tub location is great, but it definitely needs to be cleaned after every visit! I believe that all of the water provided to the house is from the river, so as you can imagine, the hot tub looks and feels dirty. There was a lot of debris in the hot tub and it was a dark green color. It also had a funky smell. With it being warm water it was a breeding ground for bacteria. I would say that this was the only complaint that I had for the trip. Thanks again Ezio! Kind regards, Todd & Sasha

Great location, great house

I rented the Eaglenest Sanctuary for a weekend getaway with nine friends. It comfortably accommodated all of us and was clean and well organized. The house is beautiful, nestled in the woods besides the river, with a nice garden. Hot tub and sauna were excellent. Ezio was a great host - very communicative, responding promptly to all of my questions. I'd certainly stay here again and would recommend it to anyone looking for a spacious, comfortable place.

Beautiful grounds, funk house, rustic for sure

This was a nice place for a few families to stay together (lotsa beds). Private and quiet. The water system is pumped up river water, although Ezio provides well water also. We found that the well water jugs were a little dirty, not all but some. The dishwasher is a little spotty (i think because of the water pressure due to the pump from the river?) and the house could use a bit more cleaning but was nice enough for a group of people, especially since we spent 90% of our time outdoors.

Thanks for your feedback. Sorry for the dusty water jug. Some clay settled into the jug. I will check the dishwasher to make sure it works well. It usually does... I pride myself for the cleanliness of the Sanctuary and will make sure this does not happen again. I'm glad you liked the place and again I thank you for your feedback. Love and light, Ezio

Stagette bliss

This was the perfect spot for my stagette. The grounds are amazing, the house is well furnished, comfy and cozy. This place has so much to offer including a hot tub, river swimming, sauna, fire pit (we didn't use it there was a fire ban) and nearby trestle walk. This is a perfect spot if you're wanting to have some privacy and make as much noise as you want!!! Would highly recommend!

Great place to come and dewind!

We were a group of 16 celebrating new years and a friends champagne birthday. The place surpassed our expectations and acommodated all our needs. The sauna off of the yoga/dance room was the best part for me personally. Having a hot sauna and ggoin into the little shower to cool down :) The woody features of the place give a very rustic look. Definately take the time to come to rhis beautiful sanctuary!

Yoga Retreat

We had a wonderful yoga retreat at the Eaglenest Sanctuary. The house provided plenty of space for all our activities: yoga, meals, evening Satsang by the fire... The house itself was obviously a labour of love with every detail carefully planed and designed. Nested in the forest and beside Koksila river, it provides a lot of opportunity for the outdoor activities, weather permitting. We strongly recommend the Eaglenest for a yoga retreat or similar.

Ezio Cusi är värd

Värdens profilbild
Hello, I am Ezio the owner and operator of Eaglenest Sanctuary. I am originally from Mexico, but have lived in many countries, including France, the US and Canada. I know what it is like to travel alone and with my family and what aspects make a great stay. I live a few meters down the road from Eaglenest in a newly constructed natural building home called Eagleyew.

Varför värden valde detta boende

In 2001, while living in France with my family, we decided to move to North America. We sold our house and went to the US, bought an RV and travelled for a year in US, Mexico, Central America and finally Canada, looking for a place to live. When we arrived in the Cowichan Valley, we realized that we had found home.

When researching the necessary steps to immigrate to Canada, I came in contact with a poem by Goethe in which he states that to make your dreams reality, you have to take the first step and the universe will conspire to make them happen.

So we decided to buy a house and after exhaustive search, we came upon Eaglenest. We fell in love with the house and especially the grounds.

Amongst other things, I am a cabinet maker and I have made many changes to the house in the last 10+ years.

In 2010 I started the construction of Eagleyew in a sub division of the original Eaglenest property. After 2 1/2 years, I moved to Eagleyew and renovated Eaglenest as a vacation and workshop rental.

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

The location of Eaglenest Sanctuary is, arguably, one of the most beautiful settings in the world. Bordered by the Koksilah river, the property is embeded in the Shawnigan Lake rainforest. Uniquely secluded, it is surrounded by rainforest with the closest neighbors more than 400 yards away.

The soothing view of the river from the living room, kitchen, dining and master bedroom room is superb and unique.

On the bottom floor you will find a large multipurpose room for yoga, activity, resting or media. Attached to the yoga room you will find a custom made indoor sauna for ultimate relaxation.

You will also find 2 outdoor showers and an outdoor hottub overlooking the river.

The soothing view of the river from the living room, kitchen, dining and master bedroom room is superb and unique.

The best feature of Eaglenest are the grounds. The house is surrounded by gardens. To the east is an enclosed medicinal herb garden, protected from visiting deer.

To the north is an old growth rainforest patch as well as Koksilah river access.

To the south is the flower garden, with lots of grass area for games, with its shrine to Inanna, the Sumerian Goddess. In addition, this path leads to the main swimming hole and to the fire pit.

To the west is the closest path to the beautiful Koksilah river.

Beyond that, 3 kms of paths wind though the rainforest, leading to the four ponds, an old logging road, and the world famous Kinsol tressle, the largest railroad tressle in the Commonwealth and one of the most popular tourist attraction in the Cowichan Valley.
