    Duncan is best experienced outside of town for trails lakes and nature in general. Try an AirBnb. There are a few within 20 minutes or so from town in beautiful settings. To Eat, go to Romeo's. I had one of the award winning pizzas, and it didn't disappoint

    Sadly, this town seems quite depressed, with little that was visually appealing, and many homeless folks wandering the streets. Seems to be a good jumping point, to get fuelled up, get groceries, do laundry etc, before continuing to stay elsewhere.

    The Cowichan Valley region (incl.

    The Cowichan Valley region (incl. Duncan, Cowichan Bay, Cowichan Lake, Chemainus, Ladysmith.) has restored, sweet, old towns with plenty of outdoor informative signs, images, murals about local history, walking, cycling and equestrian trails to renovated trestle bridges (Kinsol Trestle is the biggest and most impressive one), the best river tubing in the pristine water of the Cowichan river, clean lakes with nice beaches for swimming, ecotourism with wineries, cideries, distilleries and breweries, all in beautiful settings. Don't miss the Hand of Man museum in Mill's Bay. Easily explored within 4 days with a car. All the municipalities are easily explored on foot. We were never disappointed with the food either and they have gluten free options everywhere on the menus.

    I know Duncan well as I was born here. I came to town to attend a concert. I took advantage of the great shopping. I enjoyed dinner at Mr Mike’s prior to the show. Lots of restaurants within walking distance from the theatre and also the hotel.

    This hotel is old, run down, and downright scary.

    This hotel is old, run down, and downright scary. My husband refused to get out of the car! The "guests" who happened to be outside were standing in huddles that appeared more like a drug deal going in. One women was outside her room in saying only a towel. Rooms were full of stale cigarette smoke. Do not book a room here. My only saving grace was that the manager told me the room hasn't been charged yet.

    We've been there many times.

    We've been there many times. Small quaint town; lots of restaurants, shopping and a casino for those who like that (not me), lots of totem poles. We are there every summer to attend the Cowichan Folk Music Festival, which was the reason for this trip as well. Easy to get to by car/bus as the main highway runs right through it; could get there by boat as well. By air would most likely be via Nanaimo or Victoria and then an hour drive either way to Duncan. Outdor music performances every night in July in town.

    This is a motel on the highway going through Duncan and cost less than others, so the location was the first draw. It is surrounded by restaurants, easy for meals. As I was there in the middle of a heat wave the pool was a huge bonus. Cleanliness was good, no complaints. A bit noisy due to highway but not unexpected. There was no air conditioning, but the motel was surrounded by trees and a high fence, and the staff supplied a fan, I took advantage of an evening swim too!

    What a pleasant surprise to stay in this nice hotel. Although we were only there for one night, we were very happy with our room, which appeared to be recently renovated. The bed was comfortable and we were happy to have two chairs to sit at the little table. Usually, it seems there is only one chair in many hotel rooms. Even though the hotel is right on the highway, it was quiet inside.

    Was bright and modern, the host left a lovely touch of a bottle of wine. Was very handy and a nice surprise to have coffee in the cupboards (we had forgotten ours) and all utensils etc to cook. Wi-Fi was great, rooms were comfortable. Location was perfect for us as we were close to the Performing Arts Centre where we needed to be. Host was super responsive and helpful when contacted.

    Great spot in Maple Bay to walk to the ocean, the nicest pub - The Lion Rampart - and just enjoy this cute little hamlet. We hiked Mt Zhouhalem earlier and loved the short drive to the BnB to refreshen up. Nice mini-break from Victoria. Look forward to coming back and having breakfast with Sharon and Barry (and the deer) again!

    The room was clean, the staff was super kind, and although the motel isn’t located in the best part of Duncan, I felt completely safe on the nights I was there by myself as a female. Air conditioning worked well. The room was freshly painted and renovated all except the bathroom which was still in fine clean working order.

    The breakfast was great and she even made us a pot of English Breakfast tea. We liked her garden and lovely to sit out there and watch the birds and the local possum. We particularly liked that it wasn’t smack bang in the middle of tourists hotels etc. It was nice and quiet.
