Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Cowichan Valley

Very convenient location as it was less than 10 minutes away from the ferry. Place was very nice and had lots of amenities for us to use :)

We had a wonderful stay here and would absolutely recommend and stay again. The hosts made us feel right at home. It was clean, beautiful, comfortable and right at the beach. Thank you!

We had the good fortune to run into Jennifer when we pulled in to check in and had a lovely conversation. Her place is immaculate and the neighbourhood is really nice. We felt very safe in this area. Jennifer gave us some recommendations on where to eat and hike and I must say, the "local" Stoney Hill Trail is not difficult and rewards with spectacular viewpoints. I would say a must see if staying here. The Hand of Man Museum is literally in the neighbourhood and a quirky yet surprisingly comprehensive collection well worth checking out. Lots of eateries and things to do, easy to travel 'down' to Victoria or 'up' to Parksville and beyond. She is a very responsive host and was kind enough to go out and purchase some tower fans for each of the bedrooms when I expressed concern that the week of our visit may be hot. All around 5/5, don't hesitate to book. Thanks Jennifer, it was so nice meeting you!

What a lovely place to stay!! I almost didnt want to write this review because (selfishly) I don't want more people finding out about this amazing getaway spot! 600m walk to a private beach with dock access.. View of the lake from the backyard.. What more can you ask for. Would 100% stay here again!

Place was perfect for 2 people and they had an extra blow up mattress for an extra person. It was clean, spacious and had everything we needed. Would highly recommend!

We enjoyed our stay very much! The place was exactly as described and the views were spectacular. Evelyn was a great host. She informed us of everything we needed and more. We had forgotten a sweater at the place and Evelyn was so kind to mail it to us.

Suzanne was very accommodating. The bed was very comfortable and the location was perfect for my objectives.

Fantastic time here! Private getaway cabin with a unique outdoor sauna made this place extra special. Comfortable beds, and great space. We plan to come again :)

We had a great stay... a very good apartment in a lovely, peaceful location. We had all the amenities we needed; very comfortable, hope to return.

The Valley View Suite could have been called “A little bit of paradise” with wonderful views, a clean spacious suite and an obliging hostess. We had a wonderful stay and would return again.

We loved this place. The view of cowichan bay and the marina are spectacular and cowichan bay in itself may be the cutest place we’ve ever been. Lots of great restaurants nearby and great for just strolling around. Astrid made an earlier check in possible which was great and the apartment was very clean and nicely decorated. We felt right at home! Highly recommend

We had a wonderful stay at Jane’s ! The suite is close to the the Cowichan Valley Trail ( part of the Trans Canada Trail ) which we cycled for 2 days. Also close to town and restaurants and the famous totems of Duncan. Lots of lovely touches and a very comfortable bed . Would highly recommend Jane’s air bnb .

Two words gorgeous views!!! Looked forward to having my cup of coffee on Kelley & Kent’s patio every morning. A very peaceful location tucked away from the hustle and bustle of Ganges, but still less than five minute trip into town. Both Kelley & Kent were very welcoming and accommodating to our early check in. Their air bnb had all the amenities you could need to make you feel right at home. Beds were super comfy! I would HIGHLY recommend booking this accommodation, you won’t be disappointed! :) Enjoy!

We had a great week in Victoria It was the best place I've stayed. It was quiet and clean, and had everything I needed. Thanks Susanne

Harley’s place was pure magic. Perfectly situated and very well equipped, we felt right at home for our three-night stay in Port Renfrew. The views are even more breathtaking than the photos suggest, with tons of natural light spilling through the entire apartment. We were blown away by the wildlife sightings from the balcony and spent hours with the binoculars taking it all in. We would happily return to Harley’s property in the future.

THe apartment exceeded expectations. It was so spacious, sunny and with a great view of the water. The building was grand and very quiet. It was also near the town of Sidney and ferries going to multiple places. My mother and I both had a wonderful time staying here. Neighbors we met were friendly. It was lovely to sit on the balcony and watch the light change on the water and enjoy the lovely weather we had all week. We were only sorry to leave when it was time to go home!

Port Renfrew is a great place to take the family. Halibut Hideaway was just as described, clean and well kept. All the amenities we needed were provided and in good shape. One rule about talking garbage to the dump wasn’t known prior to arriving and we found out the local dump where we were instructed to put the garbage was only open until 2pm the prior day. Either do all your cleaning really early or you’ll have to pack a bunch of smelly garbage into your car to comply like we did.

Really enjoyed are stay at Inn of the Sea! I wanted something right on the water, and this condo delivered! It’s so lovely to fall asleep with the sounds of the waves lapping at the shore. The condo was exactly what we needed, full kitchen with everything we needed, bbq’s available, pool & hot tub. Most of all, the views were fantastic! We saw wildlife everywhere, water views, beautiful sunsets. The only drawback is you do need a car as it’s in a remote location. But the trade off is lots of peace and quiet!

Kirstin was a great host. They had great communication, everything was clean and exactly as described. They even provided a high chair and pack and play which was extremely helpful when travelling a little one. The home was spacious and within walking distance to many great spots. It was the perfect place for my families weekend getaway to Ladysmith. We would recommend this place to anyone looking for a place to stay in the area. Thanks for a great stay!

We very much enjoyed our stay here. Conveniently located and overlooking the water, the apartment was very well appointed, clean and very cozy. On a cold evening, we enjoyed warming our feet by the outside fireplace. We’d recommend this place to anyone wanting to spend some time in Port Renfrew.

Really beautiful location, quiet, right on the water, just an absolute gem.

Beautiful property. walking the beach, swimming at the pool, we enjoyed our stay. The accommodation were wonderful. (as described, spacious.) Hope to go again. Thank you Pat for the games and Beautiful kitchen, bedrooms ect.

Loved staying in this beautiful area. The pool and hot tub right next to the ocean were the cherry on top. Tammy’s place was very clean. Felt cleaner than most hotels we’ve been to. Her instructions were crystal clear and we had zero issues accessing the condo and the amenities. Our only feedback; we were missing our creamer in the morning for our coffee. There’s a chance it was there but we didn’t find it! Other than that, we loved it and highly recommend!

Place was gorgeous, Iris was a sweet and responsive host. We will be back again 100%
