Cabin Suggestions

[HeMadeMeDoIt]

Hey Perberts

I have some family visiting from out of town and would like to take them away for a weekend or two to show them how beautiful our province is. I am thinking either the Okanagan or the Island. My only criteria is that the cabin be a waterfront property and have two separate bedrooms with maybe a BBQ; a hot tub would also be great.

Any suggestions or ideas are both welcome and appreciated. Thanks in advance.

A couple of years ago I rented on N. Pender Is. Can't remember the link, but found it by googling the island itself. The lady had 2 cabins, both waterfront, brand new at the time, each two bedrooms w/ full kitchen and washer dryer, other ammenities. Sorry I can't help you find it, but it was reasonably priced and very nice.

I believe each of the Gulf Islands has its own website.

Another suggestion would be Tofino - again, google it and you'll get various links describing what's available. Again, about 3 yrs. ago, stayed at a place that had 2 and 3 bdr. suites 2/ fireplaces, kitchen on the beach - minimum 3 night stay tho...

I would stay away from Shawnigan lake at this time of year, the water isnt very clean from too many houses and improper sewage. I would phone the Town of lake Cowichan and look for a cabin on Lake Cowichan. Stay on the east side if possible but the place is great. you could google lake cowichan rentals as well.
The other bonus is you could do the day in VICTORIA and show the family the sites like Bucthard Gardens,ect... and then head up the Island from there.
It takes about 80 min. to drive from V -LC
cheers

google Tofino on the West Coast ... lots of places rent cabins on the beach ... pricey, but very nice ...
