Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Cowichan Valley

We had a wonderful stay at Mel’s place. It’s very peaceful, the bed was extremely comfortable and the views are stunning. It’s a little peace of heaven! All the machines seem brand new and it was very clean and had everything we needed. Would love to go back!

Lovely house with amazing deck to relax and great views. Erik gave a passionate introduction at the check in that would make you want to stay for much longer. The perfect nature getaway!

Great place. Would be happy to go back.

We were lucky enough to get to meet Emma as the guest suite is located in the bottom floor of her family home (also with your own private parking and patio/garden space). Emma is so warm and friendly. We loved having the chance to chat and appreciated the helpful local recommendations on walking/biking in the area (Bald Mountain is just down the road, we also hired bikes from Cycle Therapy in Duncan for the Cowichan Valley Trail and ferry to Salt Spring Island from Crofton was also within 45 minutes drive). We saw beautiful elk and even a bear(!) hiking in the local area. The space is very large and well put together with all amenities you need and a wood fired sauna (and cold plunge!) that we very much enjoyed after all the exercise.

A fantastic place to come and decompress by the sea. Surrounded by nature in every direction, we found exactly what we were looking for. Gary and Kathy were kind to let us book short notice too.

Just spent four nights in the beautiful garden suite. It was spacious and comfortable. We were in the area for a wedding and this locale was excellent. Perfect for two couples. The garden was in bloom and an ideal place for a morning coffee and breakfast. Easily accessible to Victoria & Ferry. Highly recommend this lovely spot and a visit to the Island.

We had a wonderful stay. Devanie was amazing, she went extra mile to get us an anti-slip mat and make sure we have enough propane gas for the BBQ grill. The surrounding was delightful, we were lucky to see a few deers in the backyard as well as a double rainbow. Will definitely try again during summer!

Our host Guido was wonderful, friendly and quick to respond with any questions we had. Like many other posts state, the views are breathtaking and the residence is new, modern, and very clean.

We had such a lovely stay at Dal’s place! The king sized bed was extremely comfortable as were the pillows. The shower had great water pressure, which is always a plus, and the whole suite was clean, cozy, and welcoming. The outdoor seating area was a definite highlight. We spent time enjoying the sunshine while watching deer graze nearby, with a charming peek-a-boo view of the ocean in the distance — so peaceful and serene. Location-wise, it couldn’t be better. It’s just a short walk to the Saturday market and local shops, yet far enough away that it still feels quiet and private. We felt extremely safe the entire time, which made it all the more relaxing. Dal was also a good host, offering helpful local recommendations that we really appreciated. Would absolutely stay again!

Deanna is a great host very accommodating and responsive. This is our second time staying at her place. Location is perfect to watch our son racing who was participating in Shawnigan regatta. Looking forward to stay here again next year!

Great location that was very peaceful that overlooked the bay. Rooms had comfortable beds that were well maintained. We will be back.

What a wonderful place to stay! We come to Port Renfrew several times a year to get away and this has been the nicest place yet. Wonderful views for coffee in the morning and a peaceful place to escape the city. Will for sure be returning! Harley is proactive and descriptive in the instructions to get there and get in, so we felt right at home arriving and getting ourselves settled.

What a beautiful place! I thoroughly enjoyed my stay, the view was incredible and it was so relaxing. The queen bed was comfortable but the sofa bed wasn’t great. Everything was clean and the kitchen had everything we needed. Jason and Andrea were easy to get ahold of when I had any questions. The area where the unit is was clean, the park was fun for my girls to play at and the hot tub was lovely! I would highly recommend this place. Thank you for a great stay!

THe apartment exceeded expectations. It was so spacious, sunny and with a great view of the water. The building was grand and very quiet. It was also near the town of Sidney and ferries going to multiple places. My mother and I both had a wonderful time staying here. Neighbors we met were friendly. It was lovely to sit on the balcony and watch the light change on the water and enjoy the lovely weather we had all week. We were only sorry to leave when it was time to go home!

Spectacular. The penthouse is amazing, especially the master bedroom. The views over the harbour are gorgeous. The location is a quick walk from everything you need in Ganges, great if you're flying in. The host is super efficient and friendly. Enough said!

The beautiful condo made a big contribution to our enjoyment of the lovely Salt Spring Island. It was comfortable in every way possible, from the beds, to the well stocked kitchen and the great deck overlooking the ocean. There were many thoughtful touches that you seldom see in an Airbnb such as extra towels and linens, laundry detergent, spices, Netflix, easy access door code and many other things. Vesuvius is well located for everything you could want to do on the Island and we would definately stay in the condo again.
