  Beschreibung

  We are a family run, fly/boat in only floating fishing lodge near the mouth of Knight Inlet. The lodge, built in 1989, sits on a cedar raft and is tied to the shore of Baker Island. Land access is by boat only so land outings are limited. We try to grow as much of our kitchen herbs as we can, as well as chard, lettuce, kale and anything else that will grow well in this climate. The garden is all in wooden boxes on the floats. We have eight chickens who keep us in eggs, as well as a black Labrador.
  
  For 2024 we are looking for help with pastry baking, cookies, pies and desserts, as well as housekeeping, combined 8 hours a day. Length of stay is flexible, but between a month and six weeks works well.
  
  This is a paid position, at $20 per hour.

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  The community of Echo Bay is very small, only about 6 people live here year round. We have 3 bestselling authors among us, as well as a tiny volunteer-run museum on nearby Gilford Island. There are sometimes killer whales, humpbacks and dolphins in the area, as well as many other sea mammals. Salmon is often on the menu in the spring/summer months. You will have access to a kayak for outings away from the lodge.

  Was noch ...

  We are off the grid, most of our operation is solar powered, but we do run a generator to keep up if it's not sunny or if our demand is high. All houses are heated with wood, so you'll need to know how to start a fire. We have enjoyed having volunteer helpers for about 13 years now. The nearest town is Port McNeill, 27 miles by boat. For this reason long stays are better, as we don't travel back and forth too often and it's always weather dependent.
