House holiday rentals in Duncan

What a great spot! Nestled in the woods in a peaceful and quiet setting this place is truly one-of-a-kind. The house is very unique with lots of character that sets it apart from the usual stays. It was clean and had all we needed. Our host Gramma Rikki was exceptionally warm and welcoming. Unfortunately, the weather did not cooperate, and we could not take advantage of all the outdoor spaces and amenities. We played pool, sat by the cozy fire and did some island exploring by car. All in all it was a very enjoyable and relaxing getaway despite the crummy weather. We hope to return one day and experience everything this wonderful place has to offer.

This is a lovely property. There was a lot of thought put into making this property comfortable for guests. Nicely furnished, well equipped kitchen and plenty of good quality towels and pool towels. We made use of the hot tub and sauna. The hot tub and pool were well maintained during our stay. The weather was a bit chilly when we were there so we didn’t use the pool much. Would love to come back and experience Matt & Lina’s home in the summer.

Great place to stay for four nights

Peaceful and lovely house, the views from the balcony were beautiful. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Nanaimo.

Our family of 5 plus our dog enjoyed our stay at Oceanside Escapes. Johanna and Julie were readily available to answer any questions that we had before and during our stay. The cabin was well-supplied and had a binder listing many local recommendations. It was a short walk to Rathtrevor Beach which we all enjoyed, particularly our dog. All essential amenities and many attractions were nearby. The central air conditioner was especially helpful in keeping the whole cabin cool during the hotter days. We will be back.

This is such a cute and comfortable cottage, with lots of amenities, a great back deck with a table and BBQ, and a perfect layout for a family or friend group! The area is so cute and easy walk or drive to the beach, and stuff to take to the beach, which we loved. It's nice for walks and has a pool and mini golf down the road!

Great location and very easy to find. The house was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped for our stay. It was close to the mall with groceries and restaurants, and we loved how convenient everything was while still being in a quiet neighbourhood. Bowen was a good host and was very responsive. Pool was not heated but would be lovely on a hot day. We enjoyed sitting on the patio in the evenings and watching the different birds fly by, including a local owl.

Great little get away. Pool was awesome, hot tub was great. Great fenced front yard for the dogs. Back yard was quite big to be able to play with the kids. Very clean and tones of room. Ryan was great to deal with. Will definitely rent again on our next trip down. Thank you

We had a wonderful stay at Mel’s place. It’s very peaceful, the bed was extremely comfortable and the views are stunning. It’s a little peace of heaven! All the machines seem brand new and it was very clean and had everything we needed. Would love to go back!

We had a great stay at Dan and Sam’s place! The location and surroundings are beautiful and the Airbnb itself is exactly as pictured, it was a perfect spot to spend a few days in Sooke. Would definitely recommend!

Beautiful views. Peaceful neighborhood. Lots of comfortable spaces to sit in. Beds were very comfy.

We had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb! The space was beautifully updated, spotless, and had an incredible view that made our trip even more enjoyable. The location was great, and we loved how comfortable and well-maintained everything was. The only minor downside was that the units aren’t very soundproof, but since we rented both, it wasn’t a problem for us. Overall, we highly recommend this place and would absolutely stay here again!

the place was pristine, beautifully decorated and in the most peaceful, beautiful area! there are beautiful walking the nearby that lead to the beach, suzanne had maps and everything in the suite. Suzanne was extremely responsive and accommodating. We had a wonderful stay!

Truly one of the best Airbnbs we've stay in. The house is better than we could have imagined and lake is even closer than what it looks like in the pictures. My five year old son says his favorite thing(s) about the house is: jumping into the lake, the hot tub, the water play, jumping in the lake, the big couch, the showers, and jumping into the lake... Hoping to come back again!

It was so peaceful, beautiful stay I have had in a long long time! Animals and orchards to walk around. The view was gorgeous and the decor was fantastic. I hope Brianna and Ryan know that they have the most special place and when I return to the island, I will stay there 100% !

We had a very comfortable, peaceful stay at Gary’s place. It was very clean and had everything we needed. It was a good base for our day trips and then we were able to relax on the balcony or in the living room. We really enjoyed our stay. There is a nice walking beach close by and Cowichan Bay is an easy drive.

The location of this place couldn't be better for exploring the Island and especially for mountain biking (hosts were very accommodating with letting us store/charge our ebikes in their garage during our visit). Very easy access to everything North and South of Nanaimo as well as the city itself. The apartment is very peaceful with your own private garden/sitting area. While Nash and Louise are delightful hosts the real star of this property is Ollie, the most well behaved dog you will ever meet. Ollie greeted us upon our arrival and checked in most mornings to make sure we were well taken care of. Be sure to get Nash and Louise's restaurant recommendations.

Awesome place! The house was very well appointed. Host always responded to our messages. Walkable to all stores and food options. Would definitely recommend this place if staying in and around lake Cowichan.

The home was beautiful and very comfortable, we were able to unwind and relax, the ocean was beautiful.

We were really happy with David’s guest suite. It was exactly as shown in the pictures, and check in/check out were very easy. There wasn’t a microwave, but the stove/oven makes up for it. We appreciated how compact and tidy everything was, and I found the bed very comfortable. We were happy with our 12 day stay here, and would gladly stay here again when we come back to the area.

The property is absolutely beautiful and Heidi is the perfect host. Upon check-in, we were greeted with flowers, a basket of fruit, and makings for a great breakfast. The space is large, clean, and very well appointed. The property is so nice that it was difficult to leave to explore the Island! 🤣 Heidi was very warm and welcoming. She made sure that we were happy and was very responsive. Communications were wonderful. We were a group of 8 and never felt like we were in each other’s way. Thanks you for a wonderful visit!!

Rob is a fantastic host. We had some issues getting the fireplace to start and he came right over and fixed it for us. He is very responsive and friendly. Highly recommend his Airbnb for a peaceful getaway!

Julie is a wonderful host! The place is beautiful and exactly as pictured/described. Clean, free of clutter but still with enough furniture to be comfortable. I stayed for an extended period of a month and I enjoyed it thoroughly. Julie was accommodating and an excellent communicator. Very quick responses, and provided us with anything we needed during our stay. Cowichan Bay is a beautiful area and the house is tucked away on a quiet dead end street but still only a short walk to the beach which my children loved. The house was well equipped with everything we needed for an extended stay & was very reasonably priced. The pull down couch was very comfortable as was the bed in the bedroom. Having in suite laundry was also very convenient. Overall would highly recommend! You won't regret your stay in the beautiful Cowichan Valley at Julies oasis!

Great location in the little hamlet of Crofton right near salt Spring Island some very good mountain biking, and gravel trails nearby. Well maintain place really wonderful host , great patio overlooking a beautiful yard and lots of room for additional guest. A great spot to stay.
