About this property

Riverside Suite | Kitchenette, Firepit & BBQ

Step into our cozy street-side suite at Cowichan Lake Cottages Riverside, where charm meets modern comfort.

Thoughtfully designed to feel warm and inviting, this suite is a great fit for couples, solo travellers, or small families. The open-concept living and dining area offers a comfortable place to relax, featuring a sofa that converts to a queen pull-out bed and a smart TV for quiet nights in.

The kitchenette is equipped with the essentials for preparing simple meals before or after a day of adventure, including an induction cooktop, air fryer, fridge, microwave, and coffee maker. Start your morning with a fresh cup of coffee, then head down to the riverside dock to take in the peaceful view.

The bedroom features a comfortable queen bed and twin bunk beds, dressed with crisp linens and soft pillows for a restful night’s sleep. Just steps away, the bathroom includes a tub and shower combo, along with fresh towels to help you feel refreshed and ready for the day ahead.

Outside, the riverside setting is where this property really shines. The shared dock is the perfect place to sip your coffee as the morning mist rises off the river, or cool off with a refreshing dip on a warm afternoon. The spacious shared yard offers room to spread out, while the covered communal firepit creates a cozy gathering place for s’mores and stories in the evening. There is also a shared BBQ area, ideal for cooking and dining outdoors. Guests are also welcome to enjoy the shared games room, a fun space to relax with family or friends after a day of exploring. For those bringing bikes, an outdoor bike rack is available on site for convenient storage between rides.

This suite offers a peaceful stay with the added convenience of being right in the heart of Lake Cowichan. Shops, cafes, and local attractions are all within walking distance, making it easy to enjoy both relaxation and adventure during your stay.

Suitable for a maximum of 4 adults and 2 children under 12.

Please note, the games room has an indoor security camera for security purposes.

Great Property

We were very happy with the quality and cleanliness of the property. Everything was very nicely presented and new. The beds and bedding were very nice and comfortable. The location is amazing with outdoor sitting and a private dock on the River. We look forward to coming back and staying again

Everything you need in a quaint little riverside apartment!

BOOK THIS NOW! This place is fantastic! It’s clean and modern and has everything you need including AC that works phenomenally. Our host was incredibly nice, professional and super attentive to anything we needed! The location is superb; you can’t get any better. From the moment we arrived until we checked out we had zero issues or complaints — we even stayed an extra day! We can’t wait to come back! We plan to book this exact same unit time and time again!
