Jode is the consumate hostess and baker - she made our time at Morgan's Landing memorable and an absolute joy. We arrived at Morgan's Landing for moorage as we wanted to experience desert at the resort on Dent - yet the experiences we had at Morgan's Landing were much more entertaining and lasting. The dock moorage came complete with friendly service and a resident bird that enjoyed socializing with resort-goers. The bird even flew into our boat for a bit - we didn't try to shoo him away (he was too cute for that) and even got a couple photos of the little guy. A huge thank you to Jode for making our time at Morgan's Landing a highlight of our gunkholing in Desolation Sound!

We stayed at Strongwater our very first night in British Colombia after a long day of driving and…read moreferrying from the Vancouver airport. This place has so much charm and character. First, let me say that leading up to our visit, my communications with the owner/operator were pretty lax and informal. I didn't get an official confirmation of my booking other than an informal back and forth inquiry email that later served as my confirmation. This same relaxed feel continued when we arrived. The property has 11 campsites and 7 cabins. We booked a cabin, which was very reasonably priced. When we arrived, we made our way up some stairs to the "office" having to side step at least six or seven chickens that were just hanging out on the stairs. Hilarious. There was a note on the door that said check-in at the Skookumbus (an old painted bus that serves as a little roadside food stand - cute!). There we found Cheyenne and a few friends and family all hanging out around a picnic table. She was very friendly (and as expected extremely casual and informal). We made our way to our cabin encountering all manner of farm animals - chickens, roosters and baby ducklings - cute! Once we saw our little cabin we fell in love! We were in No. 4 (see map), which was one of the most secluded. I will say that none of the sites (both campgrounds and cabins) are particularly secluded and a few of them are pretty much right on top of others. I think the understanding, though, is if you're staying here, you're doing it for the charm, the price-point and the community feel of it all, which Strongwater has in spades. We had a restful night sleep in our adorable little cabin, though the described King Bed was just two twin beds pushed together. There were a few moments of being stuck in the crack, but otherwise we stayed warm and really enjoyed the whole feel of it. Checkout was, once again, extremely informal. We approached Cheyenne the night before we were scheduled to leave (as we were getting up really early the next morning) and found her around a campfire up at the Skookumbus hanging out with family and friends (pretty much right where we left her, haha!). I essentially just handed her the cash for the room, which she then directed at some other responsible person in the circle that I hadn't previously met. We thanked everyone for the great time and that was it. Even though we were there for less than 24 hours, we really enjoyed our stay. Personally, I would have liked a bit more of an organized structure to the payment system and the check-in and check-out process, as well as a little less nonchalance towards their guests, but it didn't bother me too much! I just interpreted it as that laid back B.C. vibe. Definitely put this on your B.C. checklist!

Notable and Enjoyable-Much Appreciated: 1) e-Bike rental (wonderful)! 2) Side-by-Side experience with hike (didn't know I was permitted to drive, glad I was). 3) Clean and spacious accommodations with rooftop fireplace 4) Shannon available by text to help troubleshoot and to help me make special requests. Feedback: 1) Consider offering to help guests with luggage. Especially if standing near them when guest is attempting to unload. It's a courtesy and good customer service. At PointHouse, hosts helped unload luggage and also load. It made a huge difference in customer service. 2) In the future if power outages are planned (like it was for Sunday 9/14/25), consider giving a courtesy heads-up to inform the incoming guests. In my case, I arrived at 2:30 p.m. on a day where there was a "planned" electricity outtage due to needed service and I received no heads up whatsoever. That would have been beneficial before I came to the island so I could have brought food/dinner with me from the mainland, since that full day, the only restaurant on the island Texada Inn was closed that day by the time power would be restored at 7 p.m. I also pre-ordered the charcuterie board at arrival. However, the power outage also prevented it from being served since it would have gone bad. Point is, I couldn't eat that either. For those two reasons, no heads up and the inability to enjoy the pre-ordered charcuterie, I didn't have a traditional dinner or healthy food to eat. I was totally unprepared and had a few chips for dinner and didn't get to eat until the next day at about 12:30 a.m. (22 hours). The pre-planned outtage also meant that I had no heat in the accommodation until after 7 p.m. (had to sit in my car for warmth), and couldn't shower until after 7 p.m. when power was planned to be restored. IMPORTANT: That's not the hosts fault. I just could have used a courtesy heads-up about it all. May have chosen to stay on the mainland longer to enjoy a meal, pack a meal, go to shops etc.
