Lovely space and great location for where we needed to go.
It was a very short stay so didn't use the hot tub but it was a lovely little space, nicely decorated and adorned, with some lovely extra welcoming touches like fresh baked cookies and a bottle of wine.
Full kitchen which is perfect for longer stays for sure.
Will be back for our next course in Duncan!
Everything was simple and easy to check in! There was not a detail missed when staying here. We all enjoyed staying and look forward to coming again in the future!
My small family of 3 had a wonderful stay at this beautiful suite. It was stocked perfectly and beautifully decorated. The neighbourhood was peaceful and it's perfect for someone looking for a country get away. The Cowichan Valley has so much to offer in terms of hiking, bike riding and generally being in nature. The hot tub was perfect for 2 people and the suite fit us well as a family of 3. Ear plugs were helpful as the fridge and outdoor heat pump ran at night. The host was wonderful and very attentive to our needs, answering our questions immediately and bringing us extra towels for the hot tub. I completely would recommend this place!

The place is immaculately clean and the hosts had a welcome gift (wine and cookies) that was we thought is so thoughtful. It’s truly a home away from home as they have everything that we needed.
Didn’t get to use the hot tub as we focused more on getting acquainted with the place.
The suite was very cute with a full kitchen. On the outskirts of Duncan - very quiet. We unfortunately didn't have time to try out the hot tub - maybe next time! Oh, and the hosts left homemade cookies - yum!
Overall, was a great suite to stay! Very clean, quiet and perfect for a couple! We also loved the cookies thank you!!

Becky & Luke's place was wonderful. Every amenity had been thoughtfully considered in their design of their suite. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to return sometime soon.
One of my favourite places I have stayed! It is so cute, clean and has everything you need plus more. The soft tub and lights were so relaxing. Wish we had stayed longer
We enjoyed our stay - the suite was very clean and had everything we needed. The hosts were awesome, friendly and left us a nice welcome gift. We were able to bring our senior dog and our two grandchildren stayed one night with us as well. We would highly recommend this suite!

Immaculate and very private! Gorgeous deck with hot tub (which we didn’t have time to use). Host generously welcomed us with a bottle of wine and cookies…perfect as I was hitting a sugar low from travelling! Well supplied kitchen which we used to cook meals, comfy bed and smart tv with access to popular streaming channels. Loved the decor…inspired me in my own home renovations. Thoughtful touches everywhere!
I had a lovely 1 night stay, the property was beautiful and clean, had everything I needed, Becky was communicative and proactive, and the welcome gift and note was such a special touch! I will return every time I travel to Duncan.
Thanks Becky and Luke!
My daughter and I stayed for three nights. The guest suite was spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated and provided everything we needed to have a home away from home. The kitchen was thoroughly equipped, the bed and sofa bed were very comfortable and, for a small space, the suite felt spacious. It was cozy, private and peacefully quiet. The location is great being only 5 min from town. The thoughtful details and special touches provided by the hosts made our stay extra enjoyable. We will definitely stay here again.
Beautiful private suite, every detail thought out meticulously, and so much more than expected!
We were welcomed with the sweet smell of vanilla, a bottle of wine, snacks, including fresh homemade cookies and a personalized note, all in a spacious and cool air conditioned suite.
The location is quiet and tucked away with easy access to amenities. The occasional pitter patter of little feet could be heard from above, but this was the only real indication of our gracious hosts, other than a quick meeting or two in the driveway in passing.
We will definitely book again in the future.
If I could give 10 stars I would! It was the perfect place to stay for my 5 day work trip to Duncan. So close to town and the bed was oh, so comfy! The suite was clean, spacious, cozy and equipped with all of the comforts from home. The owners went above and beyond with some welcome treats for my pups and myself - how thoughtful. One of my favourite things about this location was the proximity to a forest (end of the road) with walking and biking trails. I would start my and end my days on the trail. When I needed to connect with the owners, they were a text away. HIGHLY RECOMMEND that you stay here :).

I stayed for one night. Becky was incredibly hospitable. She connected with me clearly and early prior to arrival to make sure my anticipated arrival process was smooth and easy. She is super responsive and helpful. The unit is perfect for 1-2 adults with an additional sofa bed for kids if needed (might get a little tight then, but manageable) it has everything one needs. There are many gentle and nice touches around the room. Taste and cleanliness, thought and effort are evident all around. It is obvious the hosts put in a lot of effort in maintaining the unit and keeping it in top shape all the time. I am impressed with Becky's work and hospitality and would definitely recommend this place to anyone passing by Duncan. Thanks. Naz
