About
A lakeside off grid cabin in the middle of Canadian wilderness... a dream that CAN come true.
For most of our adult lives, we have lived in cities, enjoying the opportunities they offer. Now we are going back to our roots, back to nature, to a place without noise, traffic jams and light pollution.
In the Spring of 2021, in the middle of a global pandemic and after years of searching and exploring, we found just such a place.
Nestled among the mountains of Western Canada is a little piece of heaven we will one day call home.
We are building an Off Grid Cabin and Homestead in the remote, wild rainforest of North Vancouver Island.
Come join us on our #adventure of building an #offgrid #getaway in Canadian #wilderness. We are out of our comfort zone, re-learning the essential skills to transform our 11-acre raw land to a working #homestead. Follow our story from #bushwhacking to #camping to #glamping to #offgridliving .
