Erik met us at the house and gave us a tour. He provided detailed descriptions of places of interest on the island, what we could hope to fit in to our 2 night stay and where exactly they were located on a map of the island. The house is easy to find and the view as soon as you enter is just like the photo in the ad, only better as your eyes take in so much more than a camera lens. It's really the view and the deck that make the place special. Our first night there we enjoyed a tremendous sunset while having a drink on the deck, taking in the vast and layered water & mountain views, watching the hummingbirds visit the feeder. We were a family of six, (ages 20-60). The beds were very comfortable and the space quite adequate for 6. We hiked up to the top of Mt. Galiano the next morning, which is completely worth the hour long uphill climb that it took some of us (bring water). The views from the top are spectacular !
