With downtown shops, restaurants, and beaches just steps away, our motel provides the perfect base for exploring the natural beauty and local culture of the Cowichan Valley.

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 This is not a deposit as no funds are withdrawn unless policy violations occur.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.

We enjoyed our stay in Lake Cowichan. It was a lovely end of summer escape. We were happy to swim in the River and explore the town and surrounding area.

Perfect Location

Cute property with the perfect location. The only improvement I could suggest is get rid of the cement blocks at the door entry. My guest twisted her ankle because they wobble under the mat. Well stocked and cute little place. Thanks so much!
