Oceanside 2 Bedroom Luxurious Suite Overlooking Cowichan Bay

Salishan Tree House Suite overlooks one of the most magical places on Vancouver Island.

Important Notice: This property is compliant under the principal resident requirement in the BC Short Term Rental Accommodation Act that came into effect on May 1, 2024.

In the shadow of Mt. Tzouhalem the Salishan Tree House Suite sits oceanside with spectacular views of Cowichan Bay.

This luxurious two bedroom suite was built to embrace the natural surroundings and the region's rich cultural and natural history.

When you first enter the property through the ornate salmon run metal gates, to the forest path and walkway bridge into the suite, the hillside suite prepares you for an incredible experience when you first open the suite doors.

Once entering the suite you will be amazed by the architecture and sweeping views from the windows of the main living room and open plan dining and European styled kitchenette space.

The large and spacious suite is tastefully decorated with touches of indigenous artwork and a main balcony from the living room to step out and soak in the ambience of west coast living.

The large primary bedroom with queen sized bed has its own balcony, TV, and incredible views of the bay.

The second bedroom, also with a queen sized bed, has a large space with a private balcony and views of the bay.

Cable TV and WIFI included.

Situated close to the Cowichan River estuary, plan to see all kinds of wildlife from eagles above, seals patrolling the shorelines, and if you are lucky the odd whale sightings.

There is a second 1 bedroom suite below that can be rented separately if you need extra space.

Amazing hiking nearby on Mt. Tzouhalem, Maple Mountain, and the Cowichan River Trail.

One of my all Time Favourites
I would have loved to move in to this cosy, stylish place with the enchanting view. It had beautiful decor, amenities and an excellent location for all of our desired Cowichan activities. Nice quiet, romantic spot. would definitely return!

Beautiful house
The house was immaculate and gorgeous. The view was amazing. The art and furniture exquisite. We ended up having great stay. However, when we arrived it was unbearably hot (95F) and we really needed AC. For the future, in the summer, the house needs AC. It didn’t cool well with western exposure. But, it is the most beautiful, spacious and comfortable place we’ve stayed in Pacific Northwest. (Beds great too.) I’d come back in a heartbeat.

Serene Lovely View
Situated at the end of a very quite road, this property was fantastic. Mature landscaping including oak and arbutus trees set the scene. The view of Cowichan Bay from the living room and master bedroom decks is spectacular. The furnishings are high end, comfortable, and in like new condition (clear a lot of though had gone into layout, furnishings, and colours). The kitchen is well equipped with a caveat that you are generally cooking pre-prepared food or simple dishes. If you are cooking from scratch, you will need things like measuring spoons and cups and any specialty cookware. We had stayed 9 days, and generally bought our groceries at the beginning of the stay. In this case, you will find the 2 drawer fridge limited. We brought a plug in portable fridge/freezer and filled all three with the food needed for an extended stay. The lack of a freezer is not that big of a deal, you are close by major grocery stores. Met both hosts during stay and they were friendly and responsive to any requests. Duncan is closest town, and has stores for pretty much anything you would need to purchase (Save on Foods is 7 mins from the rental). But it does not have a lot of 'destination' spots in the town besides the Sat market. We also lucked out and were there during the music fest and listened to some great jazz. Along island hwy, you have a huge selection of destinations within a 15-30 minute drive. Definitely check out the calamari at the Genoa Bay Cafe, it is the best!

Good and bad.
Kitchen is poorly furnished but then again I wouldn't call it a 'kitchen'. No freezer, kitchen 'sink' is a bar sink. EMR sends me email that I should contact rep for greet and meet. Explicitely states I need to coordinate meeting. I tried, EMR does not reply to messages but mentions the fines for not meeting on time for meeting that never happened. Having said all that the place is really beautiful.
