What a fabulous space for a simple, family getaway...everything about this space is easy. Easy to find, close to town, walking distance to the glorious Duck Creek Park trails, on a private beach, and fit with all the amenities a family needs to make life flow (internet, small tv with some videos and cable, typical cookware, comfortable beds, etc.). We stayed with our 6 and 2 year old boys who loved finding shells and crab parts on the beach, checking out the waterfall across the inlet, and exploring the usual sights the island has to offer (and there are many). The swing in the yard kept them busy. The Treehouse Cafe recommendation was appreciated - food was great, unique settings, family-friendly. As per usual, I am inspired to take back what flair I can from Salt Spring to my own home in the Cariboo - especially in the garden. Very comfortable place. Excellent choice for families (so long as you are willing to 100% supervise your kids near the water). This would also be a lovely getaway choice for a couple.
