About this property

The home is 1400 sf, 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath. Large kitchen with sunroom, living room, dining area, master w/ queen, spare w/ queen + 1/2 bath, and a large bathroom w/ tile shower and heated floors.

The boathouse is converted into a boho style room with roll-up glass door, outdoor shower, clawfoot tub and lounging area. Perfect for workouts, yoga, meditation, or just relaxing and watching the waves roll in.

Pets are not permitted, sorry.

Swimming is great at the cabin. It is rocky, not sand. There is a ladder off the side of the pier. Water shoes are nice to have!

The property is our second home so please expect our personal possessions in the home. You are welcome to anything you forget (pantry, spices, etc).

The property is at the North end of Galiano Island and is 2 acres with lots of privacy. 15-minute drive to town where there are markets, dining, cafes, marinas, and more. Hiking nearby and a restaurant at Bodega Ridge Resort is only a 15-minute walk away.

Galiano Island requires a BC Ferries trip from Vancouver or Victoria, or a float plane. Having a vehicle on the Island is needed.

Any additional questions please reach out. Cheers :)

Wonderful island experience

Very relaxing with amazing views. Whales can be seen from the deck!!! Galiano Island is one of my favorites in the Gulf Islands and the San Juans and this house is perfect.

Wonderful house with enchanting deck

We spent 9 lovely nights at this house. The deck was amazing with multiple sightings of orcas and a humpback whale. Although we could have just hung out all day on the deck, the house was located conveniently for biking and hiking. Direct water access for kayaks was best 1/4 mile away, with nice paddles either to Dionisio Point or Montague Harbour. The outdoor shower & converted boathouse were added extras. Really really nice!!

Amazing home by the ocean

This is a lovely place to stay. We had everything that we needed - the kitchen was better equipped than ours is at home! It was very nice, but managed to maintain its 'cabin' feel so we didn't feel like it was too posh to be comfortable. The flights of hummingbirds were a real bonus. The cabin sits on a bit of a headland, so there are clear views of the ocean from two sides.

Waterfront Seclusion

This home was a perfect spot to find solitude ……with the ability to stay connected to the rest of the world with a strong internet connection. While I would have loved to disconnect completely, I needed to work remotely during my stay, and had no issues. I slept soundly, both in the main house as well as the boat house on the water. While I didn’t take the opportunity to swim during this stay, the opportunity to do so was certainly inviting. The pair of seals that welcomed me certainly thought so. Everything was very clean, the fireplace kept the place extra cozy, and the kitchen was well equipped. It was clear that this house is lived in, and but very well kept for guests. I hope to make it back again.
