Such a beautiful Pender oasis and home! We highly recommend Bettyannes little house on Pender for your Pender adventure base. We arrived during a major October windstorm after worrying if our ferry would even be running. After making it to the little house we managed to settle in to a very clean, warm and well laid out and well equipped cozy cottage with all of the amenities you would expect.
Highlights were a very comfortable bed, leather sofa, leather recliner chair and comfy rollout bed. We lost power a few times during our stay due to the windstorm and had to improvise our plans each time. Fortunately Bettyanne was able to lend us 2 dutch oven pots to cook our thanksgiving turkey in on the provided propane bbq. Wifi was down during the windstorm after the power outages which also affected the internet dependent TV setup. We used the "down" time to unwind even more away from the phones and the laptops by taking advantage of a couple of great trails nearby. We recommend the George Hill trail for a light hike to a hill top for great views of Pender and neighbouring islands. The little house has a nice view of Otter Bay from the front porch or living room and the hot tub is a welcome reward after a full day of island exploring. The location is very quiet, not far from the ferry and the host is nearby incase you need anything but leaves you plenty of space to come and go or just relax in private.
Bettyanne is a perfect host and was very quick to respond to any queries or questions we had, especially during the windstorm related scenarios. She also gave us suggestions for local places of interest and current events that were happening while we were there.
We would highly recommend a stay at the Little House on Pender.
