Nuestra Casa – Beautiful and spacious downstairs suite in Lake Cowichan
Nuestra Casa - Newly renovated downstairs suite across the street from Cowichan Lake Sports Arena!
Step into our newly renovated, and spacious downstairs suite where modern comfort meets classic charm. Nuestra Casa ("our house" in Spanish) suite has a private entrance, two bedrooms, one bathroom, a living and dining area and a fully equipped kitchen with all new appliances that will make you feel right at home.
We are a ten-minute walk to the center (or a three-minute run if you're fast, we tested it). You can enjoy the beauty of Lake Cowichan by exploring from Nuestra Casa's excellent location or simply admiring the mountain views with your morning coffee in hand from the couch.
Nuestra Casa has two rooms that sleep five comfortably and can add a twin bed if needed in a living space (sleeps 6 in total). Our clean shower and double sinks in the bathroom are there to make you feel comfortable. A washer and dryer are available for use. Everything you need for your Island town getaway.
Our mission is for you to truly enjoy your stay with us, and we are wanting and willing to do everything we can to make that happen. Let us know what your needs are.
Note: If you have a furry family member (pet!) we accept bookings by request.

It was absolutely amazing!! Jackie was an amazing host. Extremely courteous, friendly and generous. Even allowing the use of one of her children's life-jacket when she discovered my grand-daughter's jacket was left at home. We discussed items like where we each from originally and family histories among other topics. She was very approachable and did an amazing job of showing us around her beautiful property and explaining its amenities. She also told us about local spots to visits. It was an amazing stay and I would highly, highly recommend it to anyone planning to stay in the Lake Cowichan/Duncan/Youbou area.
