About the host
Hosted by Heather Newman
We bought the property in Dec 2005 as our future retirement home while we were still residing and working in Dawson Creek, BC. It was a successful vacation rental till Feb 2010 when we began a complete reconstruction of the main house and built a new guesthouse (Aerie) on the bluff above.
We made the move to the Sunshine Coast full time in January 2011 living first in the Aerie guesthouse and finally in Jun 2012, the expanded and renovated Pointhouse now a boutique B&B.
We expanded our rental offerings in 2016 with the purchase of the Annex, a 3 bedroom home overlooking the ocean on a separate property, to serve families and groups up to 6. Furnishing the Annex with the stored contents of 2 shipping containers that had been used during construction of the Pointhouse and Aerie allowed us to start construction of Studio Iso in 2019. It has been enjoyed now since May of 2020.
Till the next building bug strikes, the combination of B&B guests from all over the world and vacation rentals keeps us hopping. Fortunately, life on the coast is a more relaxed pace allowing us more playtime, family time and travel opportunities.
