Sleep in and soak up the farm atmosphere in a Tiny Home
This lovely tiny home is situated on our upick blueberry farm. It's ideal for a summer getaway, a cozy spot after a snow day on Mt.Washington or a base for exploring the trails and mountains in the area. The tiny provides the feeling of a cabin but with modern touches. You can enjoy your coffee on a private cedar deck looking out to the forest. Located in the country 15 minutes from downtown Courtenay, 20 minutes from Mt. Washington and 5 minutes from Seal Bay Park.
The Space
The tiny home has a modern, country feel with an incredibly comfortable bed and a full kitchen. We use 100% cotton or bamboo bedding and organic Salt Spring Island soaps. We clean with eco friendly products to ensure your stay is non-toxic :)
The stairs to the loft are a little 'quirky' as they get smaller and change direction mid way up. The bottom stair also slides out so that it can be used as a table. The loft is not full height but is a good height for sitting up in bed.
You will be staying on a working farm so you will hear us out and about during the day. The kids laugh and cry, shout and play. The roosters crow, the hens cluck. Neighbours mow their lawns and run their chainsaws. These are the sounds of our rural neighbourhood.
At night, the stars are amazing and you can sometimes faintly hear the sea lions barking.
The neighbourhood
We live in the countryside 10 minutes North of Courtenay but have the great fortune of living on a loop road with 5 acre properties so there is a wonderful community of people. Many people walk "the loop" which is 2.5km throughout the day and stop and chat along the way. We also have access to the private land behind us which you are welcome to walk or cycle on. There are trails leading to a number of beaches.
Getting around
There is no transit in this area so our tiny home is best suited to travellers with a car.
