This was a cozy stay with a very knowledgeable and generous hearted host. Her home reflects her interests in nature, conservation, and literature. She is a very good local source of information about Salt Spring. She is personable and friendly. We enjoyed the rural feel with chickens, deer, and the neighbour's guinea fowl. Lots of windows in the house brought the outside in and she had an inviting wrap around porch. It was a perfect first stay for us after an illness.
