The cabin is not recommended for families with young children as there aren't railings on the decks and there are steep drop-offs. For people coming from Vancouver, you will need to take 3 ferries which take about 8 hours in total so it is not suitable for a weekend trip from the city unless you are already on Vancouver Island. The furniture and the appliances in the cabin are old and funky as this is a family cabin that has changed little since the 70s, everything works of course but if you are looking for gleaming and new, this isn't the place for you.

The driveway up to the wood cabin is gravel and steep in parts. You don't need a 4WD but if there is snow on the ground you may be better off parking at the bottom of the driveway and walking the 300 meters or so up to the cabin. Once inside you'll find that the cabin is spacious with two big open rooms along with the bathroom.
