Home away from home

A wonderful place to stay. Very fresh and welcoming inside and out. The central location is a perfect starting point for daily adventures all around the Cowichan Valley. We can highly recommend the guest house as it's one of the very best VRBO's we've ever stayed at.

Great Stay

We always enjoy our stay at Emandare. The place is always clean, great view, great vibe. It's always nice to get a complimentary bottle of wine and to catch up with Mike in the tasting room. We're already looking forward to our next stay up there.

Cutest Getaway

This is the cutest little getaway, a short drive from Victoria or Nanaimo. It really feels like you're away from the city, the view from the hot tub is amazing. Great spot for couples or a getaway with friends. I would love to stay again one day!

The instructions for access were very good; we might suggest a light or arrow or sign at the 'sharp left turn' along the entry drive to indicate the direction of the guest house.Guest binder explained everything very well. Everything was very clean. The location is wonderful; quiet and lovely views.

Absolutely Stunning!

This VRBO exceeds the pictures. It is incredibly beautiful, charming and comfortable. It is in a great location, with it being a short trip to Duncan where all the amenities of a larger centre are located. Would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a tranquil and scenic stay, with an incredible view!

Hidden gem in the vines

This property is fantastic. Clean, comfortable and nestled within a beautiful vineyard where you can sample the excellent wines made on site. We arrived to a lovely bottle of Rose that we enjoyed in the hot tub overlooking the lake. Idyllic!

Amazing apot

This winery has everything for a super getaway. Beachy vibe with a hot tub and fireplace overlooking the vineyard and Somenos Lake - feels 100 miles away but only five minutes from Duncan. Mike and Robyn were super hosts and their wines are very high quality - will never think of Canadian Pinot the same again!

Loved the hot tub and the wine

We spent a week here helping our daughter get settled after her move to the area. After a busy day it ws so nice to come home for a soak in the hot tub. So peaceful and private. We did miss having a full kitchen, and a normal sized TVbut didn't have much for either.

Enchanting stay in a vineyard!

Emandare really delivered. The house (called the Tractor Shed) is located away from the main farmhouse with views of the vineyard and Lake Somemos. Well appointed, immaculately clean, peaceful and quiet. We will be back!
