Family-friendly vacation rentals in Courtenay

Wendy's place was awesome! My family had a great time staying here for a week in late March, and found the place to be very comfortable, spacious and well-appointed. It was really nice to have a fully-stocked kitchen - even niche items like a cake mixer and vegetable steamer were available (indeed - baking cakes and steaming broccoli are both things we are known to do while on holiday 🙂). My kids also loved playing with the cool toys in the treasure chest in the main room, and picking out new books to read as bedtime stories from the shelves in their room upstairs. I would highly recommend this as a great accommodation for families on a Vancouver Island holiday.

It is a lovely place; the Host was very nice and kind enough to show me around the area as it was my first time in Campbell River. the apartment is neat. will stay there over and over again.👌

Had a nice time at Paul’s place! The space was perfect for a couple and has a great deck with a dining table, bbq and soft tub. The bed was very comfortable and the kitchen was fully stocked. Loved that there was a dishwasher! Paul was very friendly and had two beautiful pups! Location is perfect for a day trip to Savary Island (close to the water taxi) and about a 15ish minute drive from Craig park (for disc golf!). We would stay here again! Thanks Paul!

Lovely cottage, location View was amazing!! Cathy sweet and welcoming We will return!!!!

We had a great time at Paul's place, private and peaceful. Watched the stars from the hot tub and sunset from divers rock (quick walk). The snorkeling around divers rock is fantastic at low tide, provided the ocean chill doesn't take you out too fast! The yurt was a really neat experience, well insulated and quiet. Would definitely stay again!

The most amazing place!! Highly, highly recommend staying at Nao and Tal’s if you’re ever visiting the area. Such a gorgeous, private, nature-filled area that felt extremely cozy and well thought out both indoors and outdoors. Loved the outdoor bath + fresh garden flowers! Everything about the stay was so charming, and we hope to return!

The location by the water is spectacular - the provided kayaks are a really nice touch (paddled every morning and saw seals, bald eagles, even saw a whale!). The suite was very bright with big windows (great views). The kitchen was well stocked with lots of room to prep meals. We slept great in the big king bed with a cozy foam mattress. The hot tub (we used it daily) and the heated bathroom floors were awesome when the weather was chilly. Donyne went above and beyond to make sure we had a good vacation (responded quickly to our questions and even gave us the heads up when Orcas were swimming past!) It’s a great place - highly recommended

We only had a short stay but the space had everything we needed. Tracy was super responsive. The House was quiet and easy to get in.

Gales airbnb was absolutely lovely and a perfect place to stay during our time in Powell River! Great location that is a short drive from hiking trails, restaurants, and breweries, and a comfortable and clean living space. Check in was very easy, and she had even left out fresh fruit and croissants for us! Would absolutely stay here again and recommend to others :)

If we could leave 6 stars we would. Not only what we were hoping for when we booked but somehow exceeded expectations. George was a super friendly and accommodating host. We felt very comfortable immediately and appreciated the gracious hospitality. We hope their place is available next time we visit the area. Thank you for having us and making our short stay so memorable.

Spacious, homey, cozy and friendly. Highly recommended and hope to be back soon!

We loved our time at the cottage it was clean secluded and surrounded by forest . Everything is easy to find they have a great little disc golf course at the community centre just up the road . Close to everything. If we ever come back to Quadra Island we would come and stay at Big tree cottage again.

It was perfect. The description was bang on. The cabin was full of character and rustic charm. You could feel the good energy in this place surrounded by peace and quiet. Nosy sea lion swam by several times a day.

The hosts were kind and communicative (despite my anxious dog not making a great first impression!). The hosts provided a fenced in 'back yard' area at the entrance to the suite, which made for many sunny hours lounging in the sun after a walk to the river at the back of the property. The interior of the suite is quite basic and not the most private (I believe their office is on the other side of the door in the living room area and not sound-proofed), and you must be sure to keep your food secured as there are a lot of ants in the suite/kitchen - but what the suite itself lacks is made up for by the sprawling green expanse of the farm and surrounding wildlife. The alpacas were curious and friendly, and my dog enjoyed watching the neighbour's geese down the road. Overall I think my dog enjoyed the property even more than the beaches we visited while in town. Thanks again for the stay! I would visit again just to sit at the river and bask in the forest.

Thanks for having us! What a beautiful, serene environment, the dome is truly magical. Roisin is a wonderful host - kind, responsive, and helpful with many recommendations for the local area. The sauna was a welcome bonus, and we enjoyed our time greatly. One tip for future guests - don’t think it snows that much in Lund, but if so, suggest to bring an AWD or 4x4; local country roads can get a little a hairy. Thank you again Roisin!

It is an excellent option for your stay at Mt. Washington! We stayed during spring break, and the pool right across from the unit wasn't busy. The kids had a great time. Thanks, Barb!

What a gem! Monica's place was outstanding. Short walk to the beach and the common pool and hot tub were exactly as described and perfect for our family. The kitchen was stocked above and beyond with anything you might need for cooking, which we loved. This is often not the case in many AirBnB's so we were very happy about this. This place was quiet and cozy and we loved the community feeling of the resort. Monica was great with communicating quickly. We will definitely return.

Our party included 4 adults and two children. We stayed in the house for four nights. This is something which we do every summer, staying in different houses near Rathtrevor Provincial Park. We were happy with our rental this year (2024). We liked the fact that this complex includes a swimming pool. We also spent a lot of time at the beach. (We used the beach folding chairs which are available in the unit.) We also walked in the adjacent Rathtrevor Provincial Park. We also drove to some stores in town. The kitchen is well equipped. We used the BBQ for three of the dinners. It was useful that one of the bedrooms includes a desk. Sandy communicated with us (via the AirBnB app) several times. We had a great vacation. I should also mention that after we checked out we discovered that my granddaughter left a certain item behind. Sandy assured me that it will be mailed to us. Thank you!

We really enjoyed our stay at Nicole’s. The house was well stocked and the beds were very comfortable. It was a short walk to the beach and into town. Nicole frequently checked in to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The kitchen was well equipped and we made many meals there. We look forward to returning!

An awesome cottage with everything you need , great area, clean well equipped. We loved it!

Wow; what a great spot. Perfect getaway for a few families. So many activities to do and very comfy. The pool was a huge amenity for the kids (and adults). Definitely will go back!

Beautiful and comfortable stay. Awesome hosts with great communication. The bottle of wine was especially appreciated Thanks for allowing us to stay and we’ll definitely be back

The perfect place to stay for our visit to Parksville. Our host was super communicative and helpful. Highly recommend!
