About this house rental

Welcome to The Farmily, beautiful 3,000 square house surrounded by 40 acres set on the ocean in the Cowichan region just outside of Chemainus. Very private acreage for a family or friend gathering. Perfect for children of all ages with nature walks, fairy houses on the trails, lakes and golf courses outside your door. Kyaking from your own private ocean front around the small islands and exploring the coastal waters is a lovely way to see the westcoast landscape. 3 Kyaks and oars are all provided. You don't have to leave the property to have a wonderful vacation. The property is a unique mixture of agriculture, equestrian property, estuary and 800 year old trees leading down to the ocean. Horses and deer are companions. Expansive fields, walking trails through private forest, 1/4 mile running track and grass areas for family games such as bocce ball, badminton, croquet and soccer. We have lots of lawn games here to use. Various walking trails along the ocean bluff. 40 fruit trees can be enjoyed during the fruit picking seasons. In the summer time you can swim off the dock in waters heated by the tidal sands. Digging for clams and oysters is also a favourite pastime in season. Horses on the property are always there for a good nuzzle looking for a carrot or treat. This private and beautiful house is spacious and comfortable for large groups or families who enjoy nature. All four bedrooms have private ensuites and there is a lower level relaxation, yoga and play area. All yoga mats, props already provided. Wonderful for any self directed workshops, book clubs, quilting groups or yoga groups looking for a spacious area to set their workshops. The host can also organize scavenger hunts, nature walks, horse drawn carriage rides or yoga and meditation. Lovely big fields and walking trails along the ocean bluff to your private dock. We are within walking distance of a beautiful golf course, Chemainus has a preforming arts theatre with quaint shopping and dining experiences. Within a 25 mile radius are some of BC's most celebrated vineyards, with farm to table restaurants. Fishing, boating, swimming and scuba diving is all available along the coastal waters.

8 senior ladies enjoyed our stay. It is perfect for seniors as there are bathrooms in each bedroom, and all on the same level. No stairs to worry about, unless you care to go downstairs to the play/yoga recreation area. The e-mail was not always working…..spotty, but that was not a big issue. We enjoyed finding our way down to the ocean through the fields, and trails. All in all, we would recommend it. Many thanks to Heidi for leaving us a fruit basket, to die for pastries, coffee, and granola that some just took handfuls of!!!

Kitchen, dining and living room is a good sized open area with the four bedrooms, each with their own bathroom and shower off the main floor. In the lower area there is an L shaped couch and two armchairs for relaxing. Lower area also has space for kids to play, yoga or meditation with French doors leading to a large verandah with seating and a barbecue. We were a group of 9 women on a retreat. Good for vacations or retreats. Area central to mid and southern island sites. Heidi, our host was fantastic with a welcome breakfast of coffee, eggs, fruit, yogurt and pastries. Heidi was also quick to reply to any questions we had. Walk to beach was beautiful.
