Hideaway Haven by the Lake is a cozy suite that offers a unique blend of comfort and serenity. Nestled in the heart of Lake Cowichan, guests enjoy picturesque views and immediate access to outdoor activities.

The space
Nestled in the heart of Lake Cowichan and just one minute from the lake itself, our guest suite offers a cozy, welcoming retreat. Thoughtfully maintained and in excellent condition, the suite provides comfort and charm for your stay.
Please note that our family of four—two young children and a friendly golden retriever—lives upstairs. We kindly ask that you respect quiet hours between 11pm–7am. While we take great care in our cleaning practices, guests with dog allergies should be mindful that the entryway is shared. This is a warm, lived-in home that reflects the joy and energy of family life.
The suite spans the entire basement level, offering a spacious and private environment. The bedroom features a queen-sized bed, side tables, and a large dresser. The living room includes ample seating with a theater-style couch, a hide-a-bed couch, an additional queen-sized bed, and a single cot.
Upon request, we can also provide a queen-sized air mattress, allowing us to accommodate up to six guests.
The highlight of your stay? Private access to your very own sauna and hot tub—perfect for relaxing after a day of adventure. We look forward to hosting you and wish you a truly enjoyable stay.
Guest access
Upon arrival, you will have a parking spot closest to the door (not directly in front of the covered area). Make sure you are facing the front door—likely on the right side of my green truck. A lockbox with your key is at the front door. If you have not received your combination, please message me directly.
Upon arrival, retrieve your keys from the lockbox. The front door and suite may already be unlocked—feel free to enter. There are stairs leading up to our main dwelling. The door directly in front of you with the welcome sign is your suite. Please refrain from entering the door on the right, as that is my counseling office.
