About this property

Private Sauna Retreat • EV Charger • Quiet Creekside Stay


Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac near the creek, this private two-bedroom suite is designed for a peaceful, comfortable stay—whether you're here to unwind or explore the Cowichan Valley.

What really sets this place apart is the private outdoor space with a barrel sauna. It’s a great way to relax after a day out—especially paired with the fresh air and quiet surroundings.

Inside, the space is thoughtfully set up for comfort:

Two bedrooms, each with a queen bed
Living room with La-Z-Boy recliners (perfect for winding down)
A fully stocked kitchen with everything you need to cook
In-suite laundry for longer stays

The home is built with ICF construction, which means it stays quiet, cool in the summer, and cozy in the winter—something guests really notice.

Other features:

Level 2 EV charger available
Ample parking (easy for multiple vehicles)
Private entrance and dedicated guest area
Located on a safe, no-through road, so it’s calm and low-traffic

You're just minutes from shops, trails, and everything Duncan has to offer—but it still feels tucked away.

If you’re looking for a clean, quiet place with a bit of a retreat feel (and a sauna to top it off), this is a great fit.

Host was very responsive and provided so much helpful information. The place was incredibly clean and was very comfortable. Definitely would stay there againI have no idea about family-friendliness but I wasn't going to lower their rating for something that I didn't have an opinion on

About the host

Hosted by Simon Shin

Host profile image
I’m a local pharmacist and spend most of my time working in the community here on Vancouver Island. Outside of work, I enjoy staying active, getting out on the golf course, and finding ways to make home spaces more comfortable and enjoyable.

Hosting has been something I genuinely enjoy because it lets me create a place that I would personally want to stay in—clean, quiet, and thoughtfully set up. The sauna and outdoor space are actually some of my favorite parts of the home, and I’m glad guests get to enjoy them as well.

I try to keep things simple and smooth for guests, but I’m always available if you need anything during your stay.

What makes this property unique

What really makes this place stand out is the combination of privacy, comfort, and thoughtful details that you don’t always find in a typical stay.

The private outdoor space with a barrel sauna is a big highlight—especially after a day out exploring or just to unwind in the evening. It gives the space more of a retreat feel rather than just a place to sleep.

Inside, it’s designed for actual comfort, not just looks. The La-Z-Boy recliners, fully equipped kitchen, and in-suite laundry make it easy to settle in, whether you’re here for a few days or longer.

The home itself is built with ICF construction, which keeps it noticeably quieter and more comfortable year-round. Combined with the quiet cul-de-sac location near the creek, it’s a very peaceful environment with minimal traffic.

You also get practical features that make a difference:

EV charger on-site
Easy parking for multiple vehicles
Two proper bedrooms with queen beds (not makeshift setups)

Overall, it’s a space that feels private, well-built, and easy to relax in—something guests consistently appreciate.
