Beautiful place, had a great stay. Enjoyed our time here visiting family The host is definitely a 5 star, thank you so much Merry Christmas

Well and thoughtfully equipped. Great views of lake which changed with light, weather, foliage. Spotlessly clean and comfortable. If anything, the pictures understate how wonderful this place is. The host was accessible and helpful

This lake house was an incredible place to stay for our whole family. The views were incredible, in all weather. We all found it to be so very beautiful and bright. There were a couple of hiccups, but the property managers were incredible and followed up super quickly, and very kindly. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes, baking dishes, appliances etc, glasses etc. Memories were made. Some family members didn’t want to leave. :) We CANNOT wait to come back.

Once again, Shawnigan Point did not disappoint! This was our second stay at this fantastic, fully stocked house on the lake with spacious rooms (with heavenly bedding!), an awesome deck and amazing dock where we spent our days swimming and soaking up the sun. The house is surrounded by lush greenery with trees on all sides, so it is much more private than other houses on the lake. We LOVE this place and plan on continuing to return every year.

I can't adequately describe how beautiful a location this place is! The recently remodeled home is light, airy, and modern with comfortable beds and furniture and plenty of places to gaze out to the lake, both inside and out. My favorite part were the well-designed wall-to-wall windows and staggered elevation, which provided breathtaking views from almost anywhere inside the main living area. Looking towards the lake was soo relaxing and ever-changing depending on the lighting outside. We had a very comfortable stay and thoroughly enjoyed the experience, and we would whole-heartedly stay here again. A couple of niggling things for people to be aware would be first - that the equipment outside such as the trampoline, one of the dock walkways (the less-used one), and basketball hoop were a little old and falling apart, which the photos didn't really show. The trampoline is rusting and didn't seem in good enough condition that I'd let my kids go on it. The walkway along the water to the trampoline was dramatically tipping so that it seemed unsafe to use much, though I did walk on it to get to the trampoline and didn't fall in. I wouldn't let younger kids go on it in its current condition, though. The main dock near the boat house was in good condition and is the one most accessible/easy to use. It was cold outside and we didn't end up doing anything in the water, so it wasn't a big loss for my teens, but they were looking forward to the trampoline since we don't have one at our house. The only other slightly wonky thing was the main bathroom's vent button, which is in an unusual spot. It is behind the door near the ceiling, so you need a pole or something to turn it on/off, which was a bit annoying both to find and to use. If there could be a pole already there plus a sign letting people know what to do, that would be helpful and make things a non-issue. While I am mentioning these two things for others to be aware, I didn't think they detracted from our stay or made a difference in our overall experience, which was excellent. Overall, stellar place to stay, and we would absolutely stay here again!!!

My husband and I stayed with our 2 kids and had a great time. Super easy check in. The king size beds are super comfy as is the furniture. Super clean and updated. The boat house had a great ping pong table, thankfully the doors were closed as we are not that good at it. LOL! Breath taking Malahat Skywalk nearby as well as Butchart Gardens/Vitoria. Definitely recommend!

Our family of 4 were all very impressed with the views thru-out the house of the lake and the open space. Perfect location easily assessable for day trips to Victoria and Bushart Gardens or not to do anything and soak up the relaxing vibe on the large deck. One of the nicest rentals we have stayed in. Extremely clean and modernized.

We brought together four generations of family from across Canada to celebrate missed birthdays & milestones. This property was perfect for every age group - comfortable quiet bedrooms, cosy spots for story time with Grandma, green spaces and easy entry lake access for outdoor activities and water sports, and a fully stocked high-end kitchen ready for preparing family feasts. Walking distance to Shawnigan’s charming downtown, with all the amenities on hand we needed to make our stay complete. We loved every moment of our stay, and would highly recommend it to any family looking to reconnect and relax together. We’ll be back!

At risk of others renting and our inability when we want it again in the future, we can’t say enough about this property. We’ve stayed in a number of VRBO’s and this property was, hands down, the best one. From the wow factor when you walk through the door until you close the doors upon leaving, it is amazing. The house has comfortable beds, the kitchen is well stocked. It has all of the conveniences of home. Thank you for sharing your piece of paradise with us! We’ll be back!

Had a wonderful stay once again at the magical lake house. Beautiful and relaxing. Just what we needed.

Had a great time at this house. Clean, well stock. Definitely a place to return.

Hands down, best property and lake house on Shawnigan! We’ve stayed in many rentals on the lake and none compare to this one. From the expansive lakefront, well manicured lawn, cute boat house/games room, kayaks, and multiple fire pits, to the fully stocked, beautifully designed inside of the home with the dreamiest beds, bedding and pillows, there was nothing more we could have asked for. This really is a home away from home! We’ve already booked our week for next year and cannot wait to be back with family and friends to enjoy everything this space has to offer, inside and out. Special thanks to our wonderful host Shane for making everything about our stay more than perfect!

It was a cold and rainy week, including a fabulous wind storm and everything was fantastic! So relaxing. So easy. Gorgeous swimming and then watching the lake for hours in those big comfortable chairs was balm to our souls. Thank you Shane and family!

wonderful home away from home, even nicer in person, has everything you need

Enjoyed the stay Tremendously, but didn't realize there was a substantial booking and cleaning fee above the 300$ per day.

Communication with Shane was great! We were looking for a relaxing place for a week and found it! This location and view is amazing! It is the best VRBO I have been to with a very well stocked place and lots of relaxing things to do! Our children enjoyed playing in the boathouse and running around the yard! Next time will need to bring a boat! Thanks so much for a needed rest with a view that is oe of the best!

Amazing property and seamless experience from booking to checkout. We are already planning our return. Quaint little vacation town with misty meadows. Would be amazing if this property was available during the summer!

We had a lovely time at the property on Shawnigan lake. The weather was great for us except for the 1st day where it rained but that was OK. Because we had this lovely house with an incredible view of the lake. It was a well stocked home with anything you could need. The beach house was so much fun with a ping pong table which we played several times. It was a true paradise. Yes you do hear the cars from the road but it's not overly distracting. It was green and warm and we went hiking on several days on trails that were juat a few minutes drive to the house. There are several restaurants nearby and wineries which were lot of fun. Would definitely come back again.

What a great place to enjoy family at Christmas. The house was exactly as advertised. Everything was very nice and in good working order. Very well provisioned with dishes and appliances and a good number of spices. The view is stunning and the location is very private. We enjoyed the ping pong table in the boat house, and the TV was set up for streaming.

An incredible restful week away in the snow at this very appointed and well equipped cozy home. Everything was perfect!

Everything is wonderful here. Everything. The kitchen is so well stocked - I prepared an entire turkey dinner for Thanksgiving! And I baked while I was there too! The beds and bedding are just delicious. We had friends join us for several nights- they also loved the beds! Easy, comfortable surroundings with modern tasteful decor. This is NOT your grandma's guest suite! The hosts have considered anything and everything one could want or need to be comfortable. And. The lake. I swim all year round and the dock and the boathouse are just a gift. Super easy check-in. Great tech. Host Shane is responsive and lovely to deal with. We have rebooked for various weeks in 2022! Thank you for creating a warm, comfortable and gracious space for your guests. A.G

We had such a great time on this beautiful property. We really enjoyed the amazing newly renovated house but it was the outside property that took our breath away. We will be back, hopefully soon.

What an awesome property! The waterfront and gardens are amazing. The main building is stylish, bright and very clean. The 'Boathouse' is where the fun begins- we had great family games. We hope we can come back! Magical.

This week was everything for us; quiet, restful, comfortable, fun, relaxing and restorative. The hosts have created the perfect accommodation with thoughtful touches, comfortable furnishings, great beds all at the edge of paradise on Shawnigan Lake. It's only May but I swam everyday while my husband enjoyed the warmth from the dock. Even the rainy days were perfect! It was glorious bliss to be able to unwind in such beautiful surroundings. Thanks Shane et al. We have already booked another stay this fall. Ally and Dennis

We spent an amazing month at this lovely lakeside retreat. The house was immaculate upon check-in, and the host was extremely responsive. Such a bright, light-filled space that has been completely remodeled - lovely open kitchen and plenty of cosy seating areas, plus super comfy beds. And, the south-facing property has two lovely docks - perfect for watching the geese and their goslings on the lake!

We stayed for a week at this home on Lake Shawnigan with our 2 kids. The home was bright and comfortable and the views of the lake were incredible. The house was stocked with everything you needed for your stay, and everything was super clean and well appointed. A bonus was the boat house with the ping pong table, right on the water. The yard and docks were amazing. We would definitely love to stay at this property again!
