Lake house vacation rentals in Elk Lake

We had a wonderful time at Shawnigan Lake, staying in Todd's beautiful cottage! It was perfectly situated right on the lake, with a fantastic dock space perfect for swimming and other activities. We were close to the train trestle, a lovely walking/running trail, a restaurant with a picturesque lake view, and a corner store for quick purchases. Grocery stores were about 15-20 minute drive away. All in all it was an incredible place to vacation for an active family! Thank you so much Todd!

Richard was a great host! The place was amazing. I highly recommend riding the raft and enjoying marshmallows in the fireplace! I'm genuinely grateful to Richard for having flexing check-in and checkout times since it allowed me to plan my trip way easier

Es un lugar muy bonito! La pasamos muy bien! Nos encantará regresar nuevamente.

Had a great time! The dock was an amazing spot to have a coffee in the morning and enjoy the view. Easy drive to Victoria and other sites. It was very clean! Jim and Jeanette were super sweet and responsive to any needs. Would recommend to anyone!

Had a great time staying where - tucked away and overlooking the lake for a peaceful retreat. Close to the town and easy to get to from Friday harbour. Would recommend to arrive during the day or to googlemap the turn in beforehand as the turn can be easily missed at night!

We loved staying here. The house is great. The front porch, the side deck with grill and sun chairs and outdoor dining is great. The dock on the water is fabulous. Any specific questions or issues were addressed immediately. Its a really lovely spot. You can't do better on Shawnigan Lake!

Our stay was exceptional. We would rate this home as the perfect example of what an Air BnB should be. From check in to check out, all the necessities were accommodated. One of our favorite stays! Thank you

Beautiful surroundings.Tranquil . Wonderful sightings of seals, otters and other wildlife much of it was seen from the comfort of our balcony

This place was GORGEOUS. The layout of the house is so nice and big. Perfect for our trip. My husband and I traveled with our medium/large dogs and a friend and we never felt on top of each other. The kitchen and dining room were huge! They had everything possible to cook with. We thought we’d be eating out for our three night stay but ended up cooking two of the nights! The backyard is magical. Hummingbirds galore. The pond provides beautiful sounds all day. Beds were comfy and pillows weren’t stiff. The hot tub was a dream. Felt like a resort. This place is a real gem. We already booked another stay!

Amazing home. Very comfy place to stay.

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.

The views of the lake are incredible. We enjoyed our stay so much we added an extra night.

Shauna was really responsive and helpful if we had any questions. The view of the lake was beautiful and the space was comfortable and worked great for our big group.

I spent a few days with my extended family at a wonderful place filled with family activities. We enjoyed champagne provided by Loris and had a great time fishing and boating on the lake. The private deck, fishing gear, and rowing boat were perfect additions. The place was quiet, clean, and had a cozy, homey feel, with beautiful paintings, family games, free Netflix, and PS5 games. I highly recommend it and will definitely suggest it to others.

The photos don’t do this place justice. The views were spectacular, the home was clean and incredibly spacious, and the beds were very comfortable. We stayed for 3 days, but wished we could have stayed longer. Great location if you’re looking for something special, immersed in nature but close enough to drive to/from Victoria for day trips. We thoroughly enjoyed waking up to the sound of waves, having coffee on the lower patio each morning and enjoying the extensive cd collection! Thank you for sharing your home!

We've been using Airbnb places for 11 years and Em and Tyrone's place was, by far, our favorite. The ocean view was very soothing and wonderful. It was tempting to just chill out there and miss the things to see in Victoria, but we did tear ourselves away to take in the Butchart Gardens and other Victoria sites. The place itself was so thoughtfully appointed and efficient. Em and Tyrone were immediately responsive to questions and directions. I highy recommend Em and Tyrone's place to stay when in the Victoria area.

Berittany and Dakoda were great to hangout with and helped me get settled into the place. They were nice and great to talk to. Cheers, Ani

Great place, clean and felt like home with snacks, coffee, tea and everything else you might need in the kitchen. If you’re looking for something close to town this probably isn’t your space but the neighbourhood is quiet and felt very safe.

We had a great few days in these beautiful surroundings. It’s great that there are trails within walking distance! The place was very clean and it was so great to have 3 bathrooms :)

Great host / great spot. Clean, cozy and peaceful neighborhood,

I'm a repeat visitor to this house. It is a perfect spot to get away for a few days or more. Nothing like those amazing sunsets and relaxing on your own private dock on the lake!
