Most useless skill: Being ambidextrous
I spend too much time: Beachcombing, yoga, reading & traveling!
We are a family with kids in BC and, cliche as it sounds, fell in love with Texada on a short visit. We love ocean views and we have made every effort to make this log cabin cozy and comfortable! A place for recharging one's senses and where people are real and super friendly! We hope to share this island experience with you! We love that this island has a real sense of community, but also is a perfect getaway from the city and a place for memories to be made. Over the years, some guests have made this their annual cabin getaway, which we are happy to share. We'd love for you to enjoy our cabin as your own as much as we do!
