Although the booking process was more tedious with plenty of back and forth it allowed us to really get to know our host, Peter. Peter's property is perched on a mountain side and is beautifully maintained. He has chickens and geese on his land, with the option to purchase eggs prior to arrival. He has two large dogs who are very active but incredibly friendly! Luckily we were all dog lovers and did not mind at all. There is a very quick hike just behind the house that leads to a picnic table perched at the top of a hill with nice views. Internet is also available, but unfortunately wasn't strong enough for Zoom calls/remote work, but there are plenty of coffee shops down in Ganges with great connection should you need it. Overall, we had an amazing weekend relaxing on Salt Spring! Peter is super knowledgeable about all attractions on the island, and even went to get us a brochure for paddle board rentals from town!
