Community & Culture

We love what we do and where we live! Perched on nature's edge, the Inn's remote location is an undeniable draw for those looking to experience the rugged wilderness of the Pacific Ocean on Vancouver Island's West Coast.

When big surf is in your front yard and old-growth rainforest surrounds, the opportunities for exploring are endless. Our team members take to the trails or their boards on their days off and enjoy the simplicity of small-town living.
