Bowen Island Bed and Breakfast in a gracious island lodge
The Lodge at the Old Dorm on Bowen Island, British Columbia is a lovingly-restored heritage bed and breakfast with the ambience of a character inn. Its rural setting makes for a perfect island getaway - whether it's a corporate or personal retreat, an overnight escape or an extended stay to savour the nearby secluded beaches and forested trails. Minutes away, the quaint village of Snug Cove offers you a smorgasbord of casual and gourmet restaurants, pubs, gift shops and stores specializing in clothing, arts and crafts, books and organic treats. The two-story, cedar-sheathed Lodge - intimately linked with Bowen's history - is completely refurbished with art-deco accents, fine art and intriguing artifacts from its past. Classic amenities include pedestal sinks and soaker tubs. An expansive rear patio opens on to a private garden.
Host Dan Parkin - whom Vancouver Best Places calls "a fine cook" - provides a generous breakfast in the bright, tastefully decorated dining room. Your day will begin with the very freshest of seasonal ingredients and warm-from-the-oven muffins, croissants and cinnamon buns. And Dan is happy to entertain guests' special dining requests. The Lodge is the serene setting for a variety of corporate and institutional gatherings and educational workshops. The comfortably appointed living room is an ideal location for gatherings of all kinds, from sales conferences to art classes, and the atmosphere is conducive to good discussion and creativity. Experience the spirit of days gone by while enjoying the modern comforts and exceptional service in tranquil surroundings so close to - yet far away from - the city!
