As part of our standard operating procedures, we require the following:

1. Identity Verification on Day of Check-In
We ask all guests to complete a brief identity verification process on the day of check-in. This may include uploading a government-issued photo ID through our secure external system prior to receiving self check-in instructions. This is a common standard across hotels, motels, and professional accommodations in Canada.

2. Pre-Authorization Security Hold
We collect a 500CAD pre-authorization hold (not a charge) on the guest’s credit card through our secure payment processor 24 - 48 hours prior to check-in. This is not a deposit as no funds are withdrawn unless policy violations occur. The hold is automatically released within 7 days after check-out, provided there are no issues. These measures help us maintain a safe, respectful environment for all guests and ensure the quality of our property is protected

What a gem

We really enjoyed our stay , the cabins were spotless and had everything we needed. The location was perfect for our family trip tubing down the river. Close to everything yet felt private. We enjoyed the backyard and the dock. Will stay again

Overall great stay!

The location is centrally located and is in walking distance to shops/restaurants in town. It’s located directly on the water and is peaceful. The suite was well equipped with bedding and kitchen supplies. One thing I did notice was the property was very dark and no lighting on the side of the property. I also found the booking process to be complicated and not user friendly. The virtual check in was easy but you have to make sure all the forms are filled out prior to arrival or you won’t get a code.

Felt like a riverside retreat

We really enjoyed our stay, watching tubers floating by from our deck and launching ourselves from the dock. The interior was all very modern and had everything we could possibly need. Thank you!

We enjoyed our stay at the Cowichan Cottage. The location is close to everything, and the unit is well equipped. We would come back again sometime.
