Thanks for the comfortable stay. Really amazing breakfasts (we didn't need to eat lunch there was so much!), and the fact that we were vegetarian was no issue at all. Our room was cute and cozy and the bathroom was spotlessly clean. I was sad we didn't have time to use the spa pool due to visiting family/being out all day, it looked great.

The hot tub and the breakfast was the good stuff. The dated room, unpleasant check in (remove shoes, climb stairs to hear the long list of rules, I was told payment was completed but it wasnt) old furnishings, dangerous path out to hot tub including manouvering around hoses left laying on path, no choices for breakfast, no clean outdoor seating area. We won't be back for sure.

Great location with close proximity to town of Lake Cowichan. Our hosts were very friendly and welcoming. Hearty, large-portion breakfasts were served at a scheduled time that was agreeable to both us and the host (anywhere between 6-10 am). Breakfasts items included omelettes, waffles, bagels, yogurt parfaits. Our room had a very comfortable Queen Bed and 3 piece ensuite bath. Although the bedroom was on the main, it was very private and quiet. Our room also opened on to a upper wrap-around deck with a private table & chairs for us to enjoy. Definitely recommend!

Would definitely stay there again.
The room we had was very comfortable and pleasant. Cindy even provided a super-quiet fan which was quite appreciated. With the exception of a couple of cobwebs, the room was pristine and lovely. But the coup de grace has to be the hostess's breakfast! We couldn't finish it, but very, very tasty. And our hostess was very kind and helpful.

We really enjoyed our stay. We were able to walk to the lake to swim and then back to the B&B to shower and then walk into town for dinner. The breakfast we were served was delicious and filing!

Lovely b and b
Lovely room, balcony with table and chairs. Room and bathroom very clean and comfortable. No fridge, kettle or coffee maker in room so had to keep asking owners for hot water (no problem though). Town bigger than expected with a few places to eat and a supermarket. Lovely scenery. Friendly, welcoming owners.

We looked into getting tiny fridges in the rooms, but found that they use as much energy as a full sized fridge almost, and we felt this was not a very green route to take. But, since we are not a hotel, we are a home, we do not mind at all meeting any of your requirements during your stay. We hope you enjoyed your continued journey as well. Cheers!

Excellent hot breakfast! Very comfortable bed with balcony, robes, Netflix, nice windows to let in fresh air, clean. The hostess gave us excellent ideas to visit Averill Winery with our picnic lunch and to visit a westholme tea farm which was an exceptional experience!

Cute house, small town. Great views.
Cindy was fabulous. Room was very nice, clean, comfortable with balcony and great views of the mountains. It's an attached room to the house upstairs with owners who are very pleasant. Great to spend a night while passing though. Love this little town!

This B&B is great. The room was perfectly spacious, clean & comfortable. The food was very tasty and almost overly plentiful with a nice variety over our three day stay. Cindy,our host, was always available and ready to meet our every whim. Top-notch indeed.
