Description
I have 13 acres on the beautiful sunshine coast in Powell River. I am 90 km and two ferry rides north of Vancouver. My home was the first geodesic dome built in B.C. The property has two ponds and one is stocked with trout. I am close to a sandy ocean beach, and recreational activities in the area include hiking , biking, and a world class canoe route. There are lakes and pristine waterfalls minutes from the property. The Pacific Coastal Mountain range is easily accessible and there are opportunities for rock climbing.

Wendy and Dan were absolutely brilliant Workaway hosts. We had great fun working around their property doing a variety of jobs such as fence maintenance, landscaping, chopping firewood and more. The food was fantastic and the dinner chats were fab. We were also provided with bicycles and a canoe to use in our own time. A lovely spot and lovey… read more

She is bright, positive, and has a thirst for knowledge. She claimed her english wasn't good, but we thought it was excellent. We would welcome her back anytime,… read more

Tom was a great addiction to the household. He certainly is not afraid of hard work. We trusted him to look after our property and cat for a week while he was here while we went to visit relatives. Did an excellent job.
He is welcome back anytime. As a friend and not as a workaway!! Safe travels friend!!

The house is a piece of art, the garden is beautiful but a lot of work for 1 couple. So if you can make it come and give them a hand with weeding, clearing out and painting. It's out of town so wild life is around, deer, snakes, bears... You won't be short on anything as Wendy makes shure you'll have what you need.
