This place was definitely one for the bucket list. We have always admired these floating houses and finally had a chance to stay in this one for 3 nights. We really enjoyed sitting on the little deck hanging over the water in the morning and evening. It’s difficult to give a true rating during COVID-19, but we were left alone to come and go as we pleased.
CanadaInviting, comfortable, convenient. From opening the door, I knew this was going to be a special experience. Carene was an amazing hostess. Very accommodating. Will be back!

CanadaThe breakfast was across the street at the Imagine Studio Cafe. I had a breakfast sandwich that blew me away. Farm fresh eggs, homemade bread, garden fresh tomatoes, avocado, etc. It was exactly what I would make if I had all of the best ingredients at my disposal.
United States of AmericaExcellent place Corinne was awesome. We loved the wharf. We were worried about noice but it was not at all an issue . We loved it

Simply unique and different It is a vibrant, happy place with music (buskers) entertaining you, seagulls waiting to share your lunch? An otter or seal might pop up. The water taxis arrive every 5 minutes . It is very quiet after ten pm when visitors are not allowed on the docks Guests are EXCITED to stay here- it s an experience- not a hotel room.
