We stayed at Alexis' place from July 30-August 1st. It was a magical stay and a complete feast for the eyes - every nook and cranny of the cottage has a charming detail to discover, whether a jar of fairy lights or a beautifully designed piece of furniture.
When we were able to wrench ourselves from the joy of staying on this property, we found an abundance of activities awaiting for us. Challenging but rewarding hilly jogs to nearby bays, blackberry picking, kayak rentals, drinks at the brewery, strolling through the Japanese gardens, hiking to the tallest point on the island, the Saturday Farmer's market, and exploring all the beaches kept us quite busy. We also did a farm visit to Meadowmist farm to meet the sheep and purchase some ethically raised meat products. On a tip from Alexis we checked out Campbell Bay after 11pm to swim with the bioluminescent bacteria, which makes it seem like there are glittering sparkles around you when you are swimming.
It certainly was a fantastic stay and we are so grateful to the Cob Cottage for drawing us to this island and encouraging us to visit this lovely part of BC!
