We loved our stay at Calvin's cabin on Shawnigan Lake. The cabin was very well stocked with every appliance or dish you would need to make any meal. The cabin was very clean and organized and the view and the dock were spectacular! We look forward to staying here again!

Beautiful lakeside cabin well stocked with kitchen utensils, crockery, condiments, towels and toiletries. Lots of inside and outside seating. Cabin layout and furniture well thought out. Really enjoyed our time here with extended family.

If you're looking for a house on the lake, this one will fit the bill. The house, however, is very tired and could use a good cleaning. The comments about mediocre bedding are accurate, and I'd extend that to the furniture in general. Things have just been very used and it shows. The kitchen was ok -- not super well stocked like others have said. For example, there were maybe 4 cups that weren't wine/martini/margarita glasses, there was no blender (we like smoothies), and we couldn't ever find a whisk. The lack of cleanliness extends to the kitchen as well. Most things felt like they needed to be cleaned prior to using them, and the silverware tray had visible dirt in it when utensils were removed. It is also worth noting that there is only one tap in the house with potable (drinkable) water -- this was made clear a week before the start of our rental (with an additional comment saying the owner has no responsibility for the functionality of the filtration system -- we used bottled water). This may be common for the lake houses, but it was just unexpected for us.The dock was great, swimming off it is wonderful, and the west arm is generally quieter than the rest of the lake.
