Farmstay vacation rentals in Cowichan Valley

We really enjoyed staying at Debby and Keith's beautiful farm. My kids enjoyed playing with Fig (the dog) and horses. Thank you so much for your hospitality and also teaching me English too.

Our stay at Foxglove Farm was nothing shy of magical. Our 14 month old son absolutely loved seeing the rosters and exploring the expansive fields. When we arrived Jeanne had prepared a lovely basket of freshly picked produce that we used in our meals. We really lucked out with the weather and spent much of our visit outside taking in the beauty of the farm. Everyone working on the farm was friendly and welcoming. It is a quick drive to town and we loved getting to explore the island.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Foxglove Farm - it is a beautiful property, featuring chickens/roosters, organic produce and a large deck to enjoy our meals at. Our host was friendly and reliable, and made us feel right at home. I cannot recommend this property enough - and definitely suggest purchasing their ‘produce basket’ to enjoy farm fresh eggs and veggies. We cannot wait to come back one day!

We had the perfect stay- what a spot!! Stunning, serene and just what we were looking for. The hosts are incredibly friendly, kind and helpful and made us feel right at home. We absolutely loved it- wish we could have stayed longer!!! Thank you so much, we loved every second!

This place was an absolute dream. I saw another reviewer say the frogs and crickets at night are beautiful, and the birds in the morning song are loud and its true! Great location, relaxing, beautiful walking trails, beautiful designed unit. This is easily a favourite visit and hope I can be back soon.

Peter's place was perfect for our three nights on Galiano with our dogs. The house was comfortable and the view was exceptional! We had perfect weather to enjoy the patio and veranda, and it was a great base from which to explore the island. The location on Montague Harbour provided ready access to the Provincial park and we also travelled to several other locations for hikes and beach adventures. Larry welcomed us when we arrived and was available to answer questions as needed. We will definitely stay here again on future trips to Galiano.

My 11-year old daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. OUR Ecovillage is a values-driven community that we were proud to support. Brandy is a great host, paying attention to small details as well as the bigger picture of guest comfort within the context of a community farm. The space was delightful and the surrounding area is beautiful and peaceful. Highly recommended.

We travelled from England for two weeks to explore Vancouver Island. The cottage was the perfect base for us. Situated in the most beautiful location with a river running at the back - it really was a haven of calm for us as we lead such busy and stressful lives at home. The cottage was spotlessly clean and had all the cooking utensils we needed plus more! Added extras like binoculars to star gaze, bear bells, cozy blankets and umbrellas showed how much the host really cares about the comfort and enjoyment of their guests. Our daughter loved reading in the hammock! Doug and Michelle were fantastic in helping us to arrange our trip and also in recommending local places to visit, eat, shop etc. Always responsive to our messages and friendly. We would not hesitate in recommending this cottage to anybody! The location is perfect - isolated for those people who want the peace and relaxation but great for exploring the island for those like us. THANK YOU SO MUCH DOUG AND MICHELLE!

We had a wonderful weekend getaway at this lovely house. The space was incredibly spacious, clean, and comfortable, making it the perfect escape from the city. The kitchen was impressively well-equipped, allowing us to cook a great dinner together. We enjoyed playing games and relaxing before having a truly restful night’s sleep. This house exceeded our expectations and made for an unforgettable weekend.

Our family of four had a lovely, multiple-day visit to Saltspring and really enjoyed staying at Tara’s cabin. The location is both central but also private and tucked away, so very peaceful, and really unique with the goats and alpacas right there to admire. The cabin space has been used very thoughtfully and worked really well for lounging around (sleeping loft perfect for a teen), sleeping, cooking, etc. Nice touches like the Saltspring Soapworks products in the bathroom, and Easter chocolates for the kids, really put it over the top! We were fortunate enough to get good weather most days and it was great to sit outside in the sun, or in the hammock, and just soak up the forest and farm energy.

We had a wonderful stay at this peaceful and quaint Airbnb! The host was incredibly warm and welcoming — she even gave us a tour of her beautiful farm, which was a unique and memorable experience. The room was decorated beautifully with thoughtful touches that made it feel cozy and inviting. The kitchen was well-equipped with all the appliances we needed, which made our stay even more convenient. Bonnie was very sweet and added to the charm of the place. This spot is perfect for a relaxing staycation — quiet, scenic, and full of character. Highly recommend for anyone looking to unwind in a serene setting!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! If I could give 6 stars I would. The best Airbnb we've ever stayed at. Very high quality everything abs such great craftsmanship. The farm and hosts were very welcoming.

This was one of my favourite airbnbs I’ve ever stayed! The photos do not do it justice. The cabin is beautiful and cozy. Our favourite part of this stay was the two border collies that followed us around we absolutely adored them. The skylight above the bed at night with the stars was unreal.

The spot was so charming and tranquil, especially as Bin worked the land to be a productive workable living place of nature. It made for a pleasant resting and recharging point for continuing our road trip.

Natalie's cottage felt like something out of a fairy storybook, everything was thoughtfully designed and beautiful. We almost wanted to spend our whole time there instead of exploring the island because it was so calm and lovely. Kitchen was perfect with lots of thoughtful touches, bathroom was gorgeous, bed and bedding were super comfortable. LOVED it!!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Bernadette was very friendly and responded to my messages in a timely manner. Check-in was as described and the dome was lovely! We enjoyed the pitter patter of the rain in the evening while we watched the horses graze. When the rain stopped we took a stroll to visit the goats and the turkey who was gobbling up a storm. we were warm and toasty in the dome overnight. The frogs were signing loudly. Coffee in bed watching the sheep and the goats wander by was the highlight for me. We met Bernadette later in the morning to meet the animals and give a few pets. We left with farm fresh eggs which was an unexpected treat! Would highly recommend for a quiet escape.

Thank you for having us Leslie! Very clean space, fresh linens and a very comfortable bed! The patio was lovely and big and I enjoyed sitting and watching the animals. Surprise (the bull) was surprisingly very amusing! Very much enjoyed the location and it’s close to farms with tea, petting zoos and soaps.

a great place for a group reunion! Every room had their own private washroom. Beautiful property. Make sure to check out Holland Creek and spend some time in Chemainus and Ladysmith.

Thank you to Eric and family for hosting us! The birdhouse was serene. Perfect for our Salt Spring Island stay. Appreciate the hospitality!

Bill and Karen were amazing. They are so friendly and make you feel like long lost friends. Their farm is lovely and so are all of their 4 legged animals. The place was so relaxing and quiet and comfortable. I would stay here again.

This is a great spot for inter-generational families because the layout of living areas and bedrooms allows everyone to to be separate or together as they choose. We loved the quirkiness combined with the lovely modern bathrooms. And the property surrounding the house is so much fun to explore. It is a great family house and all the kids loved the pool and water slide. We have already decided to come back next year.

Super cool off the grid place to stay if you’re feeling like going to the city but getting a bit of nature at the same time !

We had an amazing stay! Beautiful location and property. It exceeded my expectations! The host was friendly and helpful, the house was immaculate and had everything we needed for our stay, and the area was gorgeous.

Bluebell’s cottage was the perfect place to stay for the weekend with close proximity to Ganges. It had a beautiful and private garden. When I reached out to Stephanie to let us know our approximate arrival time, I asked about whether fire wood was provided for the wood stove. It was and when we arrived a fire was already started, waiting for us. The kitchen was well appointed and included supplies for coffee and tea and some snacks. I look forward to coming back to this cottage again in the future.
