“The position on Cowichan Bay itself is the undeniable highlight, offering truly stunning waterfront perspectives from the suites. While the property leans into its older charm, many accommodations appear thoughtfully updated and are well-appointed for self-catering. A refreshing dip in the pool or a meal at the onsite restaurant provides a pleasant complement to the remarkable views.”
