The private bathroom is modern, with a tub and shower, fresh towels, and complimentary shampoo and conditioner provided for your convenience.

Outside, you’ll have shared access to the property’s outdoor amenities, including a riverside dock where you can swim, fish, or simply relax by the water’s edge. The communal firepit is perfect for evening gatherings under the stars, and the shared BBQ area is available for grilling up your favorite meals.

Cowichan Lake Riverside is a small, family run riverside motel located directly on the Cowichan River in Lake Cowichan, British Columbia. The property offers a peaceful setting with the convenience of being just steps from downtown shops, restaurants, cafes, beaches, and parks.

Guests enjoy comfortable, well maintained suites and studios, each with a kitchenette for light meals. Three units feature river views, and all guests have shared access to the outdoor amenities, including a riverside dock for swimming and relaxing, a BBQ area, and a covered fire pit. The setting is ideal for couples, solo travelers, and guests looking for a quiet, walkable base to explore the Cowichan Valley.

Popular activities nearby include river swimming, kayaking, fishing, walking trails, lake access, and local dining. Everything in town is easily accessible on foot, while the surrounding area offers endless opportunities to enjoy nature.

To maintain a safe and respectful environment for all guests, we have a few standard requirements. All guests must complete a brief identity verification on the day of check in, which may include uploading a government issued photo ID through our secure system prior to receiving self check in instructions. This is a common practice for professionally managed accommodations in Canada.

We also place a 500 CAD pre authorization security hold on the guest credit card 24 to 48 hours prior to check in. This is not a charge and no funds are withdrawn. The hold is automatically released within seven days after check out, provided there are no issues.

These measures help ensure a comfortable stay for everyone and allow us to maintain the quality of our riverside property.

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.
