Vintage Airstream retreat on the Cowichan River

Step back in time without sacrificing comfort in our beautifully restored 1965 vintage Airstream, nestled on 2.5 acres of landscaped paradise along the pristine Cowichan River. Surrounded by towering trees and tranquil nature, this unique getaway is perfect for those seeking relaxation, adventure, or a bit of both.

Enjoy world-class fishing, scenic hiking and biking, and daily visits from local wildlife, all just steps from your door. Spend your days tubing down the river, exploring nearby Lake Cowichan, or discovering the region’s renowned wineries and the scenic Trans Canada Trail.

Rob and Sandy’s place is absolutely amazing! Rob gave us a tour of the property and made us feel so welcome.The airstream was clean and cozy and the property was ideally located on the river - so tranquil and beautiful. We enjoyed picking apples and plums that they shared with us and cooking meals in the outdoor kitchen. We can’t wait to go again.

Gorgeous Lakeside Spot, But Security Was a Concern

The lakeside location was absolutely beautiful peaceful, scenic, and perfect for unwinding. The Airstream had charm, the space was too compact for someone tall (6' 1"). It was uncomfortable for moving around or sleeping. My main concern was the inability to lock the door when we were away. The host didn’t provide a key, so we couldn’t secure our belongings when leaving the property, which was unsettling. It’s a great spot for a nature getaway, but having a way to lock up your things would make a big difference in peace of mind.

Rob and Sandy were great hosts. The Airstream was well equipped. Bed was queen size and comfy. The outside kitchen with BBQ was great. The rental was very private and quiet, located on the shores of the river. Our only challenge was poor cell phone service. We would come again. A lovely holiday. Thank you Rob and Sandy.

Beautiful property on the banks of the Cowichan river with lovely flowers in bloom and easy access for a chilly dip in the river! The air stream was very comfortable and warm, everything that I needed for a short getaway.

Getaway

Beautiful property, Rob showed us around and told us about the history while we walked by the river and through the yards, the camper itself was cozy yet quite functional and we were only there for the night but would definitely return!

Relaxing getaway

Hosts were welcoming and friendly! When we saw them, they felt familiar and were lovely to chat to. The stay was a beautiful recharge in a stunning setting. We swam as much as we possibly could and now have a new motto that essentially boils down to the fact that we won’t buy property if it’s not on a river. The bed was comfy, pillows were perfect (I have some in my online shopping cart now) and the space was clean. They have a beautiful pup and possibly an orange kitty - both of whom I fell in love with instantly. Lovely setting, lovely hosts, perfect vacation!

Great for relaxation!

Property is quiet, comfortable, and well-maintained. Enjoyed the sounds of the river, the deck and swimming hole, and relaxing by the fire (propane) in the evenings. Great location for accessing the river in different spots, the lake, and Duncan. Very comfortable bed and pillows, wish I always slept that well. Highly recommend. Hope to be back.

An oasis on the river

Rick and Sandy were amazing hosts, Sandy made us scones from freshly picked berries as well as crumble, such a sweet gesture. It felt very private even though we were on the same property. They had all kinds of fun stuff to do and lots of floaties for the river. We had our very own swimming area. We spent a week here and 5 of those days was on the water. Perfect location and very quiet. We loved our stay.

Exceeded our expectations in every way ! The hosts were so friendly and hospitable and we were thrilled with how beautiful the river and the property was. The airstream was lovely and cozy and well equipped. The outdoor food prep area, BBQ and table and chairs was such a treat after camping! Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Beautiful Grounds, Well-Equipped Trailer

We had a wonderful time at this property. The hosts were super nice (including Hazel the dog), the trailer was clean and well-equipped, and the grounds are gorgeous. The trailer is located near some beautiful hikes. The hosts provided some little boats to float around in the river. We had a fantastic time.
