Good option for a short overnight on the way through. Room is very small - (no options to sit inside other than the bed) but clean, modern and quiet with a comfortable bed. Easy check in process. Good restaurants within easy walking distance.

What a great stay we had while our young nephew was attending hockey camp at Lake Cowichan Rec centre. We were very grateful for the very early arrival we were gifted as we had to be at the first hockey practice so early in the morning. Thank you! The suite was lovely and perfect for what we needed accommodations for. Nice private bedroom, comfortable pullout bed in the living room area for our nephew. The kitchen facilities and bathroom areas had everything we needed. So nice and quiet, very safe environment, good parking, walkable to the rec centre, very nice renovations and sparkling clean. Thank you for everything. We would certainly return and would highly recommend South Shore Motel to others.
