Observations and Notes
The
cottage was built on the waterfront of this 5 acre property in 1969.
Renters and guests used it until 2005. In 2005 major renovations and
upgrades were done. 2007 will be the first summer season since
renovations were completed.
The things liked best
were different for every family. The comments that stand out are.
Peaceful, relaxing, like a sanctuary, like being on an estate, beach
exploring, island hiking, frisbee golf, golf, fishing, getting
crabs/prawns/shrimp, digging clams, bringing a row boat and rowing in
the bay, great place to launch a kayak, lots of birds and wildlife,
lots of artisan products and simply being on the deck looking at the
view sipping the suds having a barbeque. In winter on a dreary day
reading a book, or watching a movie from the collection on site.
WE WELCOME OBSERVATIONS AND NOTES FROM OUR GUESTS
I stayed on Pender Island at a cabin (while 5 mths pregnant by the
way...) and had the time of my life!! It was just the beginning of
summer and we went crabbing and relaxed on a sailboat, went out for
dinner at this quaint pub with a great view and even greater food!! We
also checked out the frisbee golf (which they say is the best course in
North America!!)...and it was so much fun!! The views, the hiking, the
laid back atmosphere and people were just phenominal!! I also enjoyed
the shopping in the little stores set up in "town". The bakery by the
way, has the BEST freshly baked cinnamon rolls you've ever tasted!! Bar
none!! Anyway, I just wanted to thank Bill and Diane for a great
vacation getaway/hideaway....It was just what I needed!!

Logans Hideaway is a relaxing retreat with views that put you at peace. It
was a great escape for my family, we enjoyed the private setting and access to
the beach where our girls could play while we got a chance to relax. My family
and I will definately be back to explore more of the island on our next journey.
I plan to send my inlaws there for their anniversary so they can have a nice
break and perhaps do some painting of the gorgeous scenery.

Hi Bill and Diane,
Had
such a wonderful time in the cabin. Nice to just relax and enjoy the view or
beach comb. Peaceful. . Pender Island is absolutely one of our new favourite
vacation destinations! Can’t wait to get back for some
R&R..
Take
Care. And Thanks again for your hospitality!

Thanks for the hospitality and for the opportunity
to enjoy a little bit of heaven on earth. Your newly renovated cottage had
plenty of room for the four of us along with our two grandchildren.
I am sending you some pictures of the kids playing
on your beach and of our crab feast.
We are looking forward to seeing you again next
year.
Eric & Noreen Skaley.
PS.
Why is it that in Alberta when the sun sets, it
simply goes down but from your patio when the sun sets it lights up the western
skies with the most brilliant colors imaginable?
What an amazing
hideaway. We enjoyed the quiet beach, the apples & plums, clamming
& catching crabs, walking around the small island during low tides,
night walks back from the ferry, wonderful smells ( cedar, scotch broom
blooms, lemon balm & roses) Kayaking & seeing seals &
especially the wonderful hospitality of Bill & Diane ( including
great apple & blueberry crisp)
Thanks so much for everything!

What joy! To view the
sunsets, dawdle on the beach, luxuriate in the hot tub and know that
there really isn't anything else I should be doing. Andy & I love
this place and we will absolutely return to Logan's Hideaway!

What an absolutely
fabulous hideaway. This is a very calming and soothing place. We come
from a fast paced fast growing city..... Just to watch the ships go by
while sitting on the couch is priceless. This is my first time to
the island.... We will definetly be back. Time to go have a glass of
Merlot and absorb this beautiful view. Cheers to everyone!

Thank you very much for
sharing this absolutely wonderful piece of earth with us and your
hospitality. We all loved being here playing on the lawn, on the beach,
around the house and enjoying the beautiful view. We also very much
liked Pender Island with it's beautiful hiking trails (just the right
distance for kids)....

Thank you for the
wonderful hospitality. This is a beautiful place, that has so many
special spots to explore. We loved combing the beach and looking for
the friendly otter that came to the bay each evening. Not to mention
the sunsets that were amazing. The bike rides up the hill were a
favorite of Jessica's along with all the games we played. Thank you for
a very relaxing and fun filled family holiday. WE hope to be back again
soon.
Jessica, Jim, Jennifer, Sept 2007
Thank you for sharing
your little piece of paradise with us. There were many highlights
during our stay here. The incredible views, the sunsets, the regular
visits from numerous deer, daily visits from "H" and evening soaks in
the hot tub. We also appreciated the personal touches like the fresh
loaf of bread and jar of homemade jam that greeted us upon
arrival. We loved the comfortable bed, the sumptuos bath robes and your
fine hospitality and sense of humour! We shall certainly be
recommending your place to friends.

What
a wonderful way this was to spend our honeymoon! We absolutely loved
our time here. The views were the best either of us have ever
experienced and the cottage location is so wonderful that we looked
forward to coming home every evening. It was great to get to share pie
and ice cream- what a wonderful example of the hospitality you showed
us the entire time we were here- more than we ever expected!!
Mica & Tami Sept 2007
Wow what a wonderful
experience! Everything about Logan's Hideaway is perfect from location,
