Quiet & Beautiful Island Home

My chi& I arrived to visit friends who live nearby on Bowen. Upon arrival I found a handwritten book with all information necessary for Bowen Island (BI)! I saw bumper stickers with “BI” assuming lots of bisexuals lived on the Island!! The suite is one big room with a queen size comfortable bed & I slept very well. The kitchen runs along one side of the room and Helen had thoughtfully left a small basket of snacks plus all the basics needed in a kitchen. A big glass bottle of cold water in the fridge!! For it! The bathroom is beautifully done with stone walls. Good water pressure & temperature in the shower. There’s a large TV opposite the bed and beneath is the small table (where the book was found) with two chairs. Theres wireless access (which worked great for me). Opposite the kitchen a large window looks out onto a beautiful garden with flowers, trees and a sitting area - although this area is not available to guests. This is where I drop a star. It would have been great to have somewhere to sit outside. The guest parking is not very accessible, I walk with a cane and found it didn’t matter if I drove in or backed in the beautiful trees were difficult to manoeuvre around. I think able bodied people would even struggle around them. Opening doors its necessary to duck while walking & trying to carry or access my van and not damage the trees. There’s also a rock drive/walk way and a few stairs. However, I’d recommend Helena’s for 1 or 2 plus a small dog. 💚

Hi Thankyou for the lovely review. I am sorry you found the parking difficult with your cane. I definately could have helped you load and unload. Also, the yard is available to guests . If you asked me I would have ensured my dogs came inside when you wanted to sit and enjoy the flowers. Hope you will return and we can make it right 👍 Kind regards Helen
