Very nice location. Great morning views and light. A nice kitchen eating area which was great for our group of 6 to congregate in the evenings. We had a minor hiccup during checkin but the host was very responsive and it was immediately rectified. Unusual weather for the time of year as we had slushy snow that turned to ice overnight. That was fine for us as we were not there for the weather. Looks like it would be an amazing spot in the summer.

Girls weekend!
This house is amazing! Tons of rooms to choose from and really comfy beds and sheets. The house is clean and cozy. Lots of space in the kitchen and living room and really lovely decor. The views of the lake are spectacular with a dock for summer swims. It’s in a quiet area and great for hosting a friends weekend where everyone can have their own room. I’d definitely stay here again!

Spacious retreat with a beautiful view
We stayed here with our kids and found the house perfect for our needs. Everything we needed was here, and we were all able to find a spot to relax. The view is incredible, and I can imagine how lovely this location would be later in the summer! Right across the road is access to the trail, and just down the street is West Shawnigan Park.

Shawnigan family vacation
The house is located right on the lake, we enjoyed being able to watch sunrise every morning. The location of the house is about 40 minute drive to Victoria which worked well for us we did most of our cooking ( the kitchen is well stocked) and did a few sight seeing trips outside of Victoria. The owners were very available for any questions we had thank you Lindsay!! Get the bread at Masons you will not regret it🥰
