Description
British Columbia, Sunshine Coast
Welcoming international travellers, back packers,
skiers, fishers, especially singles of all ages.
Kids welcome. Our purpose is to provide a place
for you to meet other singles, and new friends,
in a comfortable and safe environment. We are
located right next to the trail head for the
historical elphinstone mountain hiking trails.
You can spend weeks camping on the mountain!
Cross country ski, snowshoe on the tetrahedron
plateau. Make us your "home base" for day trips.
Ours is not a plush motel or hotel, or bed and
breakfast, there are other places on the
penninsula for such. It is the family owned home
base for our commercial salmon fishing operations
for the past thirty years. Humble, but homey.
We say: "enter to learn, leave to serve, new
friends."
Our place is intended for international
travellers, and space being limited, you must
provide proof of international travel, please.
Passport, drivers licence, anything other
official document, can be expired many years ago.
However, if time of year is quiet, we will try to accomodate others. Also a weekly rate then could be available. Please phone or e mail for availability. We have room for self contained RVs or campers any time of year. Water and electricity only. Monthly, yearly lease available.
