Overall quality was low, it seems to be a housing solution for those less fortunate which is fine but the smell and run down nature of the place was a little off putting.

We were upgraded to a family suite for some reason and we loved it. Very generous space, fully equipped kitchenette and very clean. Very quiet, comfortable and peaceful. Would stay there again for a longer time- awesome place as a base to explore this beautiful area.

Carpets are quite dirty. The bed felt like a waterbed that was only half filled! Compared to other hotels though, the price is right.

The Lake Cowichan Lodge is an older but clean and comfortable hotel. The room I rented consisted of a suite with a separate bedroom and had a kitchenette with a full size fridge and stove. I would recommend the LCL to any price conscious traveller.
