Heather Island is one of the most spectacular properties on the B.C. Coast! It offers unparalleled views of the mountains, the Comox Glacier, and the islands dotting the fabled Inside Passage. This home was designed by perhaps the best known architect on the North American West Coast. It was custom built of heavy local timbers, and the interior finish is remarkable, with many touches by Cortes craftsmen. Extraordinary attention has been paid to the placement of windows to maximize views and enhance one’s feeling of connection to the natural surroundings. Access is via the protected 40 foot private dock. Boat rental is available at the Gorge Harbour Marina (www.gorgeharbour.com) or you can bring your own boat. This property offers the rare privilege of experiencing the best of the Desolation Sound Region in majestic privacy and tranquility — perfect for romantic getaways, honeymoons, and special family time. more information…

Otter Point is the kind of place we all dream about as we go about our daily lives in the “real world”. Many of us would like to find a 3-acre peninsula at the end of a long private driveway, surrounded by clean and well-protected saltwater. Next, we would conjure up a modern home with all the conveniences and a large dock capable of providing moorage for small to large yachts. Why not add a separate log cabin built of heavy island timber with that magical feeling that only a wilderness log home has. Sounds too good to be true? Let’s surround this fantasy with beautiful scenery and abundant wildlife, bald eagles, seals, and of course a family of otters. This dream is real and it’s located at the eastern end of Gorge Harbour on Cortes Island. Otter Point is really two properties in one. It includes the main house, which has been used in the past as a B&B, and Fernwood Log Cabin. You can rent either facility, or for a larger group or family, rent both at the same time. Otter Point lends itself both to family holidays and small group conferences, retreats, and family reunions. This property is centrally located on Cortes, which makes it easy to get to most amenities on Cortes such as stores, restaurants, recreation, and ferry. Please book well in advance to secure the facilities that will be just right for your needs.
