"We were very lucky to accidentally drop into this 5-star B&B! We enjoyed our stay very much. Our more than positive word-of-mouth is already guaranteed!"

"Well we wanted to impress our friends that were visiting from England and we weren't sure what to expect. You have exceeded our expectation in every way and we will remember this trip for years to come! I think "ocean view" is a bit of an understatement for this place!"
~Joan and Jonathan

"We felt like kids on Christmas morning anticipating what the Breakfast Fairy had brought! We got a real kick out of the sou'wester hats for the hot tub. Thanks for sharing your home and generous spirit. Too many lovely touches to mention...."

"Our stay has been spectacular. Than you so much for you supurb hospitality (and Baxter for the companionship, entertainment and meal duty). That Trail room is awesome - very unique and comfortable with plenty of space. We really felt that you went the extra mile with everything and with helping to arrange fishing and kayaking.......and of course the food was delicious and nutritious!"

"Thank you for the warm, welcoming and rollicking "good time" home away from home! From the moment we arrive to July's infectious smile and laughter, it was clear - we had happened upon a jewel - the B&B Gods were smiling upon us. Gary and Judy we so appreciated your kindness and hospitality. We loved our conversations with you, the laughter and of course, the bear escapade. Was that planned - are you paying that bear to strike the fear of God into us all - or was that really Gary in a bear suit - the bear seemed to be wearing Gary's mischievous grin!?! As we move through the coming months and share vacation stories with our friends we will be sure to include: the beautiful views and vistas from your fabulous decks, the wonderful mattress warmers, the delicious delicacies and yummies always waiting for us in the kitchenette, Pacific Rim hikes, kayaking in the outer islands and the invincible Ms. Judy, the bear and Judy defending us all with her pan, and on and on. We shall return!"

A Place of Peace

In the early morning, fingers of mist,
crept onto the sundeck to kiss the windows.
At sea, bell buoy sang and fog horn moaned.
All else was silent as stars and
no waves spoke against the rocks.

By midday the mist had retreated
to the islands floating in the bay.
Light made lace of trees playing hide and seek.
Sun beat down on the deck;
Steam rose from damp planks.

Soon we must leave paradise.
A cargo boat will drag us away.
We will still laugh and eat well
but our hearts will whisper and
our eyes will be the early morning mist.
