Clean, quiet and well appointed. We loved sitting on our little deck in the garden having coffee in the morning and a glass of wine to unwind at the end of the day. It was perfect and we will be back!
Was so thoughtfully put together anything and everything that we were needing to make our stay was here already. Lovely garden enjoyed, sitting out on the patio.In the evening.
This is a lovely one bedroom apartment located in a quiet subdivision of Duncan. Minutes from the downtown area and close to the road leading to Cowichan Lake. The gardens are beautiful. The apartment is equipped with everything you want for a short stay, Keurig, milk, sugar, etc. the host was quick to respond to all our questions. Hard to ask for anything better from a host or home.

Spectacular property. Perfectly appointed, super comfortable bed with quality linens, strong wifi, would great for someone needing a temporary work spot for a biz trip. Lovely back garden, spotlessly clean and the owners communicated very quickly. Would definitely recommend and come back.
Very comfortable suite, quiet and clean.It had everything we were looking for ; very comfy bed, living area with tv. We spent so much time exploring the island; we didn’t cook meals there but there was a well stocked kitchen area with microwave , toaster, coffee maker, mini fridge. Absolutely stunning garden area to sit out and enjoy. Host was very easy to communicate with and was a lovely lady. Such a central area for easy access up and down the island. We’ll be back!
Lovely suite in a beautiful neighborhood! The garden and yard were stunning! The entry was private, the bed was comfy and the linens, towels and robes were lovely! A bit of upstairs noise at times and no sink in the kitchenette was a bit challenging but we made it work! Definitely loved having a beautiful spot to land after being out enjoying the beauty of the Cowichan Valley.
Thoroughly enjoyed the property inside and out and the host was amazing!!Going back for sure and will tell all my friends, family and anyone I interact with about this list stay spot.Lots of walking trails minutes from the home.Check it out!
Berta and Ken could not have been better hosts, and I'm a fairly high-needs guest! Loved the whole place.One night the neighbours directly facing my suite, who were sometimes quite loud in the day, had a loud, long , late party inside, which included shrieks and raucous laughter bursting out their windows. I am highly sensitive to noise, so I just went inside and enjoyed myself in my lovely place.And Ken, thanks again for your delicious fresh produce!!! You were both SO kind to me.
Our host was extremely nice. The gardens are just beautiful. We had lovely weather which always helps, but it is a lovely place. The suite is extremely clean and well-appointed and the bed was comfy. We would definitely stay here again. Duncan is a fun little town with good restaurants. And….the mountains add to the trip.
The place was super cozy! The property was clean, well appointed and in a good location. Everything was well stocked. We had trouble with the coffee maker but otherwise everything was perfect.
We have lived a very full life , with 58 years of marriage ( to the same person ) ha ha …raising 5 children and having 7 grandchildren. We love life and would like to pass on this happiness and peace to our guests
